    It is really good product in the recent times. It has small little display screen which gives over all information, easy to use and definitely recommend this product. Really worth for the price.

    Great for bedside, but not so much for the kitchen

    We have had a Lenovo Smart Display with Google assistant in our kitchen for the last six years and have loved it for providing a central video-based screen for Google Home functions. We often used it to give us recipes by saying something like “ok Google give me a recipe for the best krab cakes ever”. The device would then pull up recipes from websites that gave us a pictorial recipe at our fingertips. Well now comes “SafeSearch” from Google, which basically highjacked our Lenovo hub and prevented it from displaying ANY website. No more fingertip recipes. If we try the request above, a screen pops up saying it cannot show website views. And there is no way to disable SafeSearch in the Home app, nor is Lenovo updating the firmware to make the hub a SafeSearch compatible device. So to get our beloved visual recipes back, it seemed like we needed to retire the Lenovo hub and replace it with a Google hub. At least a Google device would be SafeSearch compatible. We purchased a 7” Nest Hub and brought it home for a try. Works great and did everything that our Lenovo did, including opening up websites again, The two downsides however are 1. Websites take considerable time to show up and load as you scroll down the screen. 2. Scrolling down the screen is done by swiping your finger up on the screen, but more aften than not you end up engaging the quick task bar at the bottom of the screen instead. The device clearly has a minimal chipset / memory, which is not surprising given the low price. It is also too small for decent scrolling operation. Our old Levono was an 8” device which was probably the smallest size to scroll properly with. Bottomline - we will be taking this back to Bestbuy tomorrow and give the big brother Goigle hub a try to see if it performs any better.. It is a bit concerning that Google basically deactivated website viewing on a device heralding this ability when we bought it. Google should at the very least allow the SafeSearch feature to be disabled if desired.

    Overall exactly what I needed for my kitchen. It has an adequate sized screen. I imagined it to be a little louder but keep in mind I transitioned from the Nest. When paired, they are nearly flawless. I’ve wanted one for so long I had to splurge and regret nothing!

    I purchased two of these for my smart home upgrade. I absolutely love how the Nest hub is a one stop shop for so many daily activities. Anything from the weather to playing Spotify. I installed on in the kitchen just for convenience ! If you plan on wall mounting I'd definitely go with the wall genie

    Got this for my wife. To many times did i go into the kitchen seeing her scrolling through her phone trying to look at recipes. With the google home shes got a bigger screen and the thing even announces the next steps. Needless too say she loves it.

    Helps a lot in the kitchen when I want to play music and my hands are dirty. I like most of the answers it gives me when I'm asking it something, but does occasionally not quite hit the mark. However, really great for controlling all of my smart lights / outlets / devices.

    Works great! The speaker is not as loud as I hoped it would be, but it makes sense since the speaker on this one is small. Other than that, I have no complaints. It connected easily to my wifi, and had no issues with it.

    Bought to add to my collection, this is the third one I’ve purchased. I used to have an alexa set up but I switched to google. I like the slim design and the sound quality of the speaker. I like that there isn’t a camera on the front and it’s just a motion sensor.

    I had lights that were connected to smart clock and they kept going offline. The new Next Hub Smart Display fixed the issue. I wish it was a little more customizable for clock faces but it did everything advertised and more. It was easy to set up and fit right into the smart ecosystem. I would recommend it.
