70% of the time, finding my phone and doing it myself would have been faster than arguing with a dumb speaker. I find them really good for

  • setting timers
  • playing generic music
  • pausing other devices that are playing
  • simple questions like current temperature or forecast

When I don't already have my phone in hand.
