    Installed it today, replacing my 3rd gen. The display is larger and clearer, and my wife loves the gold color. It seems Google remove the support for the Nest app for this gen and instead using Google Home app to manage it. I like the interface in Google Home more actually as it more info in a single place. I hope the 4th gen is more smarter and the 2nd gen sensor is more accurate than those in previous gen.

    Excellent Thermostat, easy to install, easy to configure, and easy to control. The new updated style looks very cool and gives an ultra modern feeling. Likes the Gold color which is a rare find among Google products. The added Temp. sensor is a welcome addition, so that I don't have to run outside to feel the cold/hot in order to get an actual outdoor reading.
