Customers appreciate the Nest Hub 2nd Gen for its ease of use, sound quality, and ideal screen size, especially for bedside use. 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.

    I traded in all my Amazon devices for four of these. They work really well they're really responsive. I do wish the touchscreen had more functionality.

      Hey there, NoelleL. We hear your concerns regarding Nest Hub (2nd Gen) not picking up your voice as often as you’d like. You can control how sensitive Google Assistant is to voice commands — here’s how:

      1. Open the Google Home app.
      2. At the bottom, tap Home.
      3. Touch and hold your speaker or Smart Display.
      4. At the top right, tap Device settings, Audio, and then “Hey Google” sensitivity.
      5. Choose how sensitive you want Google Assistant to be when it responds to you.

      Here’s a link with more information: https://support.google.com/assistant/answer/9712065

    Love the Nest Hub but I HATE the way Best Buy puts big ugly red or yellow shipping stickers on the product when you order online. Makes for a very ugly gift and you can't peel off the sticker without ruining the package.

    What can we say that hasn’t been said about it. It’s excellent and my 82 year old mom likes the clock. If you would like more of her opinion on it call (888) MA-LIKES

    One of the best smart display on the market today . Fast and responsive . Only wished that the setup / resetting would have been done on the hub itself instead of using a smartphone to do it.

    Bought it for my mom who was used to having an echo show. She loves it because she can see the clock and timer a lot better and can see when her med reminders pop up.

    I had one before this purchase through Google. And it went out within a little after a year. However, this was on sale and ended up getting a replacement. Super useful for the kitchen and connected to my nest doorbell that it notifies me someone is at the door.

    The graphics of the Google photos are excellent. The sleep tracking is OK but seems to need some refining, plus Google may be charging a fee for that next year. It lacks options to combine the clock with the display.
