Google is launching the Home Max in Australia, making it the third country to get the larger and louder Google Home speaker since it was first announced last October, via 9to5Google.

A slow rollout

Australia joins the United States (which got the Home Max in December, a few months after Google first announced it) and Canada (which got it last May) as the only countries in the world where Google sells the Home Max.

The Home Max will officially launch in Australia on August 9th for $549 (in Australian dollars, which works out to roughly $404 in American currency). It will be available at JB Hi-Fi, Harvey Norman, David Jones, The Good Guys, Officeworks, and the online Google Store.
