The Google Home Max speaker became available just in time for Christmas and is powered by the one and only Google Assistant. However, some of those who got their wish are experiencing a latency issue with the smart speaker’s aux (line-in) port.

According to Variety, some owners of Google’s utmost high-end smart speaker are experiencing latency when connecting a source of audio to the device’s aux port. Having an aux port is one of the features that distinguishes Google Home Max from the industry, so we’re expecting Google to provide a fix soon.

As of December 27, Google acknowledged this issue. However, the search giant did not confirm if it can be fixed. The company did mention that the issue will not affect synchronization across several home devices, which is some good news for those who have more than one Google Home speaker. The latency issue is minor and hardly noticeable to most, and it’s not affecting everyone, but hopefully, Google is looking further into it as buyers expect perfection for the massive $400 price tag they covered.
