      Hello MarkF, thanks for leaving us feedback on Nest Hub (2nd gen), and we’re sorry to learn of your poor experience with its performance. A range issue or wireless interference can cause your Nest display to behave differently. Sometimes it may pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away. You may also check for objects such as mirrors and refrigerators between the display and your router as these items could block the connection. For more help, read Troubleshooting Wireless Interference here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9276282

      Or if you’d like, visit us anytime at the Google Nest Help page so we can provide you with real time services and assistance:  https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    The price was great, however, it doesn't wake up to the radio like I have instructed it to do and it also starts playing the sounds of crickets when I start the bedtime procedures, even though I have told google a million times "NO Country sounds" as it calls it. Has a few bugs in it and doesn't work as well as I would have hoped.

    Not bad, but not a tablet

    I like giving voice commands to set alarms, play music, and check the weather. The screen is small for watching videos and the touch screen is not very intuitive. It looks like, but is nothing remotely close to, a tablet. The AC power cord could be a little longer. I am satisfied with it but only because it was on sale (50% off).

      Hi Aloha808, thanks for letting us know of your feedback on Nest Hub (2nd gen), and we're sorry that it didn’t meet your preferences.

      The Nest Hub (2nd gen) is the updated version of the Nest Hub. And like its previous version, it has no Nest Cam built-in, though we added some features. It offers everything it already has with the original hub with added features like an improved speaker with 50% more bass than the original, a faster and more responsive Assistant, Soli technology built-in to enable features like Quick Gestures and Sleep Sensing.

      We always listen to what our customers like you share with us, so we released the Nest Hub Max with a built-in camera which will help your busy family stay in touch and on track. Leave video messages and make video calls. Check in on home when you’re away with the built-in Nest Cam. Share reminders and to-dos. Everyone views their own calendar, commute, and more with just a glance. And enjoy Google Photos, YouTube TV, videos, and music on the 10-inch HD screen with stereo speakers. See this link for more details: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9334359

      If you have any concerns about using the features of your Nest displays, please reach out to us anytime here and we’ll definitely help you the best we can: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
