The Google Assistant integration, reasonable price, and sleep tracking capabilities are also well-received. However, some customers have noted the absence of a camera and occasional sluggishness in responsiveness. Additionally, a few users mentioned compatibility issues with certain devices.

    the only complaint I have is that we have two of these devices one in our bedroom and one in our family room. When you tell it a command it gets carried out, but your reply to the command comes in on the other system sometimes. Occasionally my phone will chime in an answer. But the command get carried our very well

    I use this often plus I have Amazon products. What bugs me about this is it dims automatically when room lights go off. I never use that feature in my phones or anywhere else And I can turn it off. Really annoying!

      Hi Gonzo, thanks for giving us time to share your feedback on Nest Hub (2nd gen), and we're sorry to hear that it's an annoying experience for you.

      Whenever your room is dark, Low-light mode will be enabled. It will be enabled regardless if Ambient EQ is on or off. When in Low-light mode, the display will either show the time or turn the screen off completely. You can adjust the settings for when to activate Low-light mode, and select what you’d like the screen to show during Low-light mode when you navigate to the Display settings on your Home app.

      Also, the minimum brightness of your Nest display's screen can be adjusted in Display settings. The effect of this setting will mostly be visible when the Low-light clock shows, and enables you to make the Low-light clock dimmer or brighter, to best suit your individual preference. If you find the Low-light clock to be too dim when the room is dark, change the minimum brightness to Bright or Brighter.

      If help is needed, let us know whenever you have time and we'll do our best to provide a better experience for you: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Google Nest Hubs' are awesome! I bought one for myself to take to the office. It helps me keep track of my schedule. Nothing like telling google to schedule your appointments and then getting reminded on your phone. It also has a nice speaker. Connect it to your music app of choice and play whatever, whenever.
