    This product is very similar to Alexa Echo products. I find the Alexa products easier to set up and use. I was hoping for more smart home integration and a better control panel - this is not it.

    Love this device! We did not have a chime and people were ringing the doorbell and we were missing them. This was exactly what we needed.

    This is great! My wife loves using this for her music too. It has a bit of a lag to it and there are a bunch of things on the menu that we wish we could take off, but it won't allow us to customize it. Other than that, it's great.

    I’m sure that I don’t get full use and this could do a lot more. But, I just enjoy having a roaring image available to see pictures that would otherwise be stored only in my phone

    Much better than Amazon's Echo

    I grew tired of Amazon's options. The Amazon Echo Show is full of bloatware and advertising in your face. Google blew it out of the water. This products is much better.

    Wasn't sure what to expect from the hub but it has really come in handy for things like turning our lights on and off and setting reminders and alarms using voice commands. Yes, we can do this with our phones, but sometimes they aren't nearby.

    Nice unit for my google home devices. I especially like to tap into my cameras. I probably still haven't figured out all of its functionality. I suppose I can perform a lot the functions of my phone on this device as well.

    Super helpful home assistant and photo frame in one. I loved mine so much I set my parents and inlaws up with one in order for them to see photos and break into the smart home world.

    We have several Nest Products so it just made sense to have the Nest Hub. I like it but it take so research to even come close to learning all it can do. We have now a Nest Thermostat, Nest Door Lock, Nest Smoke Detectors and a Nest Video Door Bell
