  • The mysterious smart speaker that appeared during Made by Google is a real, unannounced device.
  • The speaker is said to come with Gemini installed.
  • Users will reportedly be able to pair it with a Google TV Streamer.

If you watched yesterday’s Made by Google event and thought you saw an unfamiliar piece of hardware, you weren’t imagining things. A device that looks like a mix between an Apple HomePod Mini and an Amazon Echo Dot briefly appeared in the stream. As it turns out, this was a teaser for a new smart speaker, and a new report has details on the unannounced device.

According to Android Headlines, this bulbous speaker will be available in a range of four colors: bright red, a light green, black, and white. Considering the tech giant’s naming conventions, these colors will probably go by the names Obsidian, Porcelain, and Jade. It’s unclear what name Google could give the bright red shade.
