    I love having everything at my fingertips but my favorite part of this is the sleep information and playing whatever I want to fall asleep to on Spotify. Thinking about getting the bigger hub for the kitchen.

    Absolutely worth $50. I have the Google minis and those were worth it for what I was using them for. I really wanted the hub to see my camera videos but I didn’t think it was worth $100. Well, I got it on sale and it’s awesome! It has a slide show of all my favorite photos and does what the Google minis do plus show weather without asking and live camera feed.

    Great prodcut if you are into google home eco system. You can easily set alarms, reminders, and look up different things. the speaker is not the best but does the job. I really like the photo slides. Great deal if you buy in sale. sometimes google is confused and doesn't do the right command

    I bought this for the sleep Sensing App which had no directions on how to set it up, all trial and error, and googling what other people did to finally get it set up. You have to jump through many hoops, Hopefully a year later they have made it easier set up for new customers because it is way worth it!

      Hi Mandi, thanks for sharing your input about the Nest Hub (2nd gen), and we’re sorry to hear of your difficult experience with the setup of the sleep sensing feature. We appreciate all the time and efforts you’ve put on this.

      Sleep Sensing features are subject to your permissions and settings. They use motion, sound, and other device and sensor data to work, and require placing the device close to the bed and calibrating the device for your sleeping position. Please note that since Sleep Sensing monitors the spot you usually sleep, children, pets, and other family members sleeping in that spot will affect your data. Device placement, motion, and other devices nearby might lead to inaccurate readings. If someone nearby coughs or snores while Sleep Sensing is on, this feature might process and attribute those sounds to you.

      If you need to turn Motion Sense on again, which is required to be on to perform Quick Gestures and Sleep Sensing, here’s how:
      - From the bottom of your Nest Hub (2nd gen) display, swipe up.
      - Tap Settings > Motion Sense.

      Our dedicated team can provide you with real time assistance, and you can visit us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
