Some Nest speakers are glowing blue and purple, and there’s a good reason for it
It's Gemini's doing.
- Some Nest Audio and Nest Mini users are seeing blue and purple colors on their devices instead of the usual white lights.
- The change marks the presence of Gemini and seems to be appearing for users enrolled in the Google Home Public Preview program with experimental AI features enabled.
- One user reported that their Nest Audio became unresponsive after the Gemini lights started showing up.
A number of Google Nest Audio users on Reddit have reported an unusual sight on their devices. Instead of the usual white LED lights, their speakers have started displaying a blue and purple gradient. While the change is subtle, it’s quite noticeable and raising questions.
