    This fits perfectly anywhere and is a great device to use as an alarm clock or get started in smart home ecosystems. Using it to see your calebdar when you move about and ask is a huge benefit to stay on task

    There's a Catch..

    You see the sleek look, and you're thinking of adding this piece of hardware into your desk setup. I will have to admit that it does look clean and 'futuristic' if you will. The UI is clean, and it's just something pleasant to see especially if you're getting this kind of device the first time ever—you'll keep wanting to play around with it. Here's the first reason why you may want to think twice before buying: most people don't need it. Everything that this thing can do can be done on your smartphone. If you have a Bluetooth speaker, you can play music thru your phone and cast it there instead of casting it to this device. If you need to look up something, you can always ask Google Assistant for it. The few use cases that I can imagine would be if you occasionally want to look something up while, say, washing dish. It would be relatively convenient to just have this thing around your kitchen. The speaker is pretty decent, but I'd say it's not as good as my standard 2010 Toyota Prius speakers (some vocals weren't hearable while they were on my car very clearly). Another thing is, while this device looks gorgeous, the beauty goes away the moment you see the 15-fps stutter mess of a transition. It's horrible that every time you swipe left and right, the animation is choppy. Imagine getting a rip-off latest iPhone at around $100. That's the kind of quality we're talking about. After keeping this around for about two weeks, I can say that I barely use the device for anything but a 'picture slideshow' of stock Google photos as a decoration for my desk setup. That being said, since I purchased this at $50 (originally $100), for a desk decoration, I won't say that it's horrendous; this is why I'm keeping it around. In short, it looks great, the build quality feels premium, but the hardware to drive this thing is heavily lacking. Expect choppy animation while swiping even on the main menu. Get it if you really want it when it is on discount around $50.

    The google home is an amazing addition to our smart home. It controls the lights, set alarms, connect to my other goolg home and mini, and even has a accurate sleep application. I cant wait to get some google security monitors to connect my home with.

    Amazing product for lazy people like me. I was using the google home mini, thinking that voice command was cool to control smart stuffs at home. However in the long run, you wont do it anymore and just use your phone to turn on/off. This display helps in just 1 swipe away. Perfectly for me, you can even use voice command if you wish, so it's like a 2in1 compared to google home mini.

    The 2nd gen is great. It has the ability to connect to 5g, which make is much better for mesh networks. The third microphone seems to make it much easier for it to pick up commands. The new speaker has a much better base. over all the sound is better. not bad for a little box. Setup was easy as I already have Google home setup.

    Excellent companion for my father. He can now listen his music, get the news and forecast every morning. Grandsons can talk to him. Many other uses but this is what it does for now. Can look the google cam there, and control the tv, but for my dad, music, news, weather and communication is good enough.

    Love this nest hub! I was able to get it on sale and its has been great! I love how you can set up routines to tell you about the weather and how long it will take to get to work. Speakers are also great on it, it's not meant to replace something like a whole giga party speaker or anything, but it's great at what it does. The screen is also great quality.

    These units wirk well, integrate into existing Google home ecosystems easily and are a great value (especially on the sale I got). No camera is actually preferable for my family peace of mind.

    This thing qorks seamlessly with our smart home uaing google home. We can switch lights on and off, set the house alarm, open and close the garage door, and set the thermostat. The speaker sounds great for listening to music while we cook and the screen looks way better than i would expect for something this price. We should have bought this sooner.
