WHY Alexa better than Google? 

That's a  tough question because they're both similar and we find it difficult to pick between the two. Which one you decide to go with may well depend on which you personally prefer and what kind of products you are using than which is technically better.

Having said that Alexa tends to be better when it comes to support for a wider range of devices as well as better  smart home integration. So if you have a lot of smart home devices already Alexa might be your best bet. 

However lots of users who have put the two devices head-to-head believe Google Assistant could be the smarter of the two. And, with Google's A.I  learning experience and wider variety of voices than Alexa   it has the biggest potential for the future.
