||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I could give 0 stars I would. I purchased this partly with a reward card. Should have been delivered the day after. Got a message the day after that shipment was delayed. The next day after that new message arrived that the item was out for delivery. Next message said item was returned to store. Never got my rewards back, and neither the item. Called customer service, and they didn’t help out either. If you’re able to pick up, do that instead. Would never choose to get items delivered again.

Posted .Hi Raafat91, thanks for sharing your feedback with us, and we’re sorry to learn of your poor experience with the performance of your Nest Hub (2nd gen) and its Google Assistant.
Google Assistant might not respond properly when you say “Hey Google” or “Ok Google,” particularly in a noisy environment, or if it's having trouble connecting to Google. Retraining your Nest Mini, to better recognize your voice, and adjusting the Hotword sensitivity may be helpful with your situation. You may follow the steps on these help articles:
- Check which devices are using Voice Match: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7588195
- Adjust how sensitive Google Assistant is to “Hey Google: https://support.google.com/assistant/answer/9712065
If the issue persists, you can also try these simple steps below that may improve your experience:
- Check your Wi-Fi network for possible congestion. Relieving some of your connected devices may help free up some bandwidth space.
- Check the distance between the Nest Mini and your router. Ensure that it is within a line of sight from your router.
- Check for wireless interference with other Wi-Fi hotspots or appliances and devices nearby.
- Restart Nest Mini and router to refresh the connection.
- Reset Nest Mini by following the steps here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7073477

Good idea but fragile
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The screen is too fragile. I opened the box and the screen was cracked already. There should also be an option on google assistant for the assitant on your phone to auto disable when using the assistant on the hub.

Posted .Hi momoffour, thanks for reaching out. We´re sorry to hear that the screen for your Nest Hub (2nd Gen) got cracked. We recommend contacting Best Buy for further help with the cracked screen issue.
If you’re near your Nest Hub and mobile phone, only Nest Hub should respond to "Hey Google." Both devices may wake up, but your phone should go back to sleep. To ensure this works for you, we recommend checking the following:
- Update your Google app version. On your phone, open the Google app Search Icon.
At the bottom right of the Home screen, tap More and then Settings and then About. Look for the version number at the top. If your version is below 6.5, go to the Google app page, then tap Update.
- Add the same account to both Nest Hub and your mobile phone. If the phone that responds isn't yours, then these steps won’t fix the issue. If you have multiple Google Accounts, add the account you used to set up Google Home to your phone.
If the you still encounter the same issue even after following these recommended steps, please consider contacting our support team and we´ll do our best to help you with your support needs here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Posted .Hi darnold17, thanks for bringing this issue to our attention. We´re sorry to hear that you are experiencing performance issues with Nest Hub (2nd Gen).
Resetting Nest Hub may be helpful with the issue. A factory reset will reset your Nest Hub to its default factory settings. To reset, check on the back of Nest Hub, press and hold both volume buttons together for about 10 seconds. Your Nest Hub will let you know that it's resetting.
If you still experience the same issue even after resetting Nest Hub, we recommend reaching out to our support team for further troubleshooting and isolation. You may contact us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Google smart display
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review. the Google smart display is a must buy if you are looking to upgrade your collection and have a hub. Google assistant is built in in the best UI in the market. The only issue is spotty Internet connectivity in some cases.

Posted .Hi there MrYoBuyer, it’s great to have your feedback on Nest Hub (2nd gen). We’re glad that you find its Google Assistant the best UI in the market, and we’re sorry to hear of your issue with spotty connectivity in some cases.
A range issue or wireless interference can affect the performance of your display. Sometimes it may pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away. If you're experiencing a spotty connection or weak signal, we recommend checking your Wi-Fi network to see if your bandwidth is congested. This may happen if you have too many devices connected on the same bandwidth or if your network package is not enough to handle the data traffic on the network. Removing other connected devices to your Wi-Fi may relieve network congestion. If your doorbell is mounted too far from your Wi-Fi router, you may need to extend your Wi-Fi network’s range using an extender, boosters or additional Wi-Fi access points.
