    Was good while it lasted, but the display manufacturer they chose is poor and the screen degrades over time. Google support will not help you if the screen dies outside of the 1-year warranty so you're basically buying these once a year. 2 if you're lucky.

      Hi there Kwadom, it's great to hear that your Nest Hub (2nd Gen) works well for you. We do apologize for the errors you get when casting Pandora radio from your phone. If you haven't tried yet, you may try some suggested troubleshooting steps below:
      - If your speaker or display doesn't play the radio station you requested, be more specific with your query, or ask for the station in a different way, using name, frequency or call sign.
      - If the request is not properly answered, try to add the name of your radio station to the query. Example: "Play ESPN Radio on TuneIn,” or "Play ESPN Radio on iHeartRadio."
      - If the provided station is inaccurate when asking for frequency, try to add the name of a nearby city. Example: "Play 101.9 FM LA."
      - Try playing other stations using the same commands listed here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7071793

      We'd be happy to look more into the issue if it persists. You may reach out to our support team via the Google Nest help page here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    This works well. I bought this for my smart home control. Unfortunately Google deprecated the ability to connect ring camera control since it is owned by Google- a competitor. So only 3 stars.

    I was excited by this purchase - it is being used as my bedside alarm. Wish I had gone with the Alexa mini. I'm an apple user - but my home is not fully smart - so staying within the Apple ecosystem isn't that important- and Alexa is half the price of Apple’s mini- and this item. And the screen is overkill for bedside. And to make phone calls- google is far too invasive with their collection of 411. The speaker isn't that great either - considering the size
