I love my google. I’m very happy with the color option

More versatile then just a smart clock and good for checking severity camera

Would buy again in the near future. Best purchase ever.

I bought this with a camera package and I want to throw them all away. It is not easy to use. In fact Google Home is a major pain. Trying to play music is a nightmare I find that Sonos is a far better system for music.

Didn't work. While streaming music, within 15 min it would abruptly change to a loud humm for 30 secs and turn off. After it shut off, the device wouldn't turn back so had to do hard reset. Tried corrective measures of using different outlets, disconnect from cord, factory reset, and rebooting modem to reconnect device. Nothing worked and will be returning.

My favorite smart home addition. Very convenient..

i like it i will buy more for my family best seller

Product was returned because it would not stay connected to the network. This is apparently a known bug with the product, and I have been told that there is no fix at this time. Google has fixed this bug in the newest nest minis, but *NOT* in the nest hub line - how stupid is that?

Kinda operates okay but it doesn’t have the character of an echo show

Wasn’t what I expected. Didn’t work with google premium music.

It works good. I Like the sleep features. it reads good stories for kids.

Google's new Sleep Sense feature is pretty cool. It was fairly simple to set up. I unfortunately forgot to calibrate it the first night so I didn't receive any results of course the next day. So don't forget to calibrate! Calibrating is super easy, just follow the easy calibration directions that the google hub will guide you through. Make sure it sits close to you on your night stand. I like how it doesn't pick up anything from my wife who sleeps next to me. You just set the time you go to bed and get up in the morning. If you decide to go to bed early or later than your selected time, it will automatically adjust and monitor during the actual time you are in bed. Although you can check your sleep data on the hub in the morning, I usually go to the google fit app on my phone and check how I slept. It monitors Duration in bed, schedule, timings, disturbances, snoring, coughing, and respiratory rate. This also gives you ways to improve your sleep after analyzing your data. There look is not much different than the original, but the speakers are slightly better sounding and I like the hand gesture feature as well. I control all my smart devices throughout the house. I absolutely recommend this product!

A nice sharp and vibrant display with good audio quality. Looks great on the nightstand and works decently well for home automation hub, however it could use some improvements. Set up is straight forward, most of which is a walk through on the display, which is nice for the tech novice. Anyone with an existing Google Home App and account, their existing home automation devices, rooms, and routines will automatically get set up for this device. Navigation is through touch screen, although you can access screens and apps via voice command as well. The voice command works well. Google does a good job with their devices with voice recognition, almost too good which can be a bad thing if you have multiple Google Devices with voice commands. For example, as I attempt to ask the Google Nest Hub a command, my TV will also prompt for the same command. This tells me that Google has not made any advances in spacial recognition. Instead of one device that is closet to the command, any other device near by will also recognize the command, which is a bit annoying. I like the ability to quickly check the weather forecast as I get up or check for the latest news. However, it does require you to interact with the screen or voice commands as the main page will not appear as the unit will be in a wallpaper mode with inactivity. It does display current time and temperature on Wallpaper mode though, but interaction is needed to get more detailed forecast. If you upload your photos to Google drive, you can sync your Nest Hub with your account to have the Wallpaper flip through your personal photos like a digital frame, which is nice. Although the default photos do have interesting subject matters and are in great quality. One of the new features to Google Nest Hub is the sleep sensor. Using motion and sound sensors, it records you at night to give you some insight on how restful your sleep is. You set the hub in a way where it can sense your breathing patterns with the rise and fall of your torso. I would some of the information is useful, such as when you get into bed, how long it takes you to fall asleep, how many times you are out of bed and temperature of the room. Some other details are a bit of a gimmick. You can see details such as restless period, snoring, coughing, however I can’t speak to the accuracy. I was told that I groaned very loudly one morning that my kids heard over the next room, however I didn’t find anything triggered in the sleep detail around that time. The details display your full sleep window with no ability to zoom in to a specific time range. The longer you sleep, the harder it is to make out anything out of the details provided. Media is limited via Video or Music. It’s Google centric, which makes sense. So, if you want access to specific songs, be prepared to shell out for a paid service. There are free versions of services that you can you, such as Google Music or Spotify, but if you don’t have a load purchased music content, these type of services will be a random shuffle of an artist or genre. Not out of the ordinary, just note that other Non-google services such as Apple Music or Prime music subscriptions will not be compatible. I like the Household contacts’ feature. You can designate members of your family, or anyone else in your contact for that matter. Without a phone line, you can call these members through the hub. This is great for any family member that currently does not have a phone line. One drawback though is that the call comes through as “Unknown”. So, if you are like me, I don’t answer those calls. But it is an option. Home control is good, but it could be better. I have no problem controlling my devices, however for features like “Show me the front door cam”, it takes a very long time to bring up the feed. I ran into an instance where my doorbell feed is coming in sideways and is glitchy. I do hope they improve that feature, otherwise it defeats the purpose as if you are trying to capture something in the moment, it will be missed by the time the feed comes up. Also, there is no interaction with the feed. Just viewing only, which is kind of a bummer since you cannot talk to the person at the door. It appears that the interface is the exact same as what Google uses for the larger Nest Hubs. This smaller version does not include a camera, so you will see features on the menu that are not applicable unfortunately. Overall, I think it is a nice looking and sounding device. Whether or not I recommend this device will definitely be based on what that person’s home ecosystem consists of and whether or not they can live with some of these cons mentioned on the review.

I'm ready for my Geek Squad partner to come back out and hook it up for me
