Google's new speaker is just around the corner. The Digital Trends reported that the pictures for Google's new smart speaker were leaked through a short clip video, and a photo--these were released by Google's PR team, showcasing a little taste. The report claimed that it has a better idea of what's to come with this possible new generation of the Google Home.

The description provided by the report came from the video since the new speaker was shown backed up to a wall, suggesting it doesn't 360 capabilities. It can also work as duel-stereo speakers since the first part of the video showed a man using two speakers--one on each side of his face.
Design
The size of the original Google Home speaker is one of the most obvious. It can possibly be a bit over 8.6 inches long. The change is a noticeable difference since the original is 5.6 inches long. The shape is another obvious change in the new speaker. The new Google Home looks like a very comfortable pillow, instead of having a shape comparable to a bloated chip can. Fabric is covering the bottom of the speaker, instead of a plastic top.
Availability and price
The report clarified that there is no current update on availability and price. However, it was rumored that the new Google Nest Home speaker would have been announced at last month's I/O conference. Although the pandemic forced the conference to be canceled, the photo and short video of the speaker suggested that Google might make an official online presentation soon. The report also claimed that the new speaker's announcement should be expected this fall, along with its new Pixel phones' announcement.
