Why not both?

I’m scared that they are going to fight with each other the whole day.

Keep them in separate rooms My echo is in the kitchen, my Googles are in other rooms.

I only want one. I want to sell the other. Which one do you like better? Sound quality?

Makes more sense to have all of one if you have multiple.

The Echo Mini 3 has the best sound quality but Google's AI is better. Also, keep in mind, if you pay for a music streaming service already, take that into account.

Great thanks! I don’t plan on using IA much, and I now have a three month trial for Amazon music, so Alexa it will be. Thanks!
