    These units wirk well, integrate into existing Google home ecosystems easily and are a great value (especially on the sale I got). No camera is actually preferable for my family peace of mind.

    Got this when it was on sale for only $50. I had the first generation hub and this one does sound better. I'm keeping it in the living room so I've deactivated the sleep tracking and motion sensing features. I don't need our dog accidentally triggering something when we're not home. Overall, a really good value.

    Bang for the buck, you cant beat this. I needed a way to allow guests to remotely manage the Nest HVAC Thermostat from the guest bedroom without needing physical access to its location, and this HUB allows them to connect to it, adjust temperature setting, all from their bedside, no need to get access to thermostat.

    A must have for your Google Smart Home. Controls all facets of my home: lights, security, thermostat, music, etc. The photo display is very underrated. Great to see family photos on continuous loop for memories. Google Hub is also the ultimate kitchen accessory for recipes and/or just listening to music while you cook.

    Great for bedside, but not so much for the kitchen

    We have had a Lenovo Smart Display with Google assistant in our kitchen for the last six years and have loved it for providing a central video-based screen for Google Home functions. We often used it to give us recipes by saying something like “ok Google give me a recipe for the best krab cakes ever”. The device would then pull up recipes from websites that gave us a pictorial recipe at our fingertips. Well now comes “SafeSearch” from Google, which basically highjacked our Lenovo hub and prevented it from displaying ANY website. No more fingertip recipes. If we try the request above, a screen pops up saying it cannot show website views. And there is no way to disable SafeSearch in the Home app, nor is Lenovo updating the firmware to make the hub a SafeSearch compatible device. So to get our beloved visual recipes back, it seemed like we needed to retire the Lenovo hub and replace it with a Google hub. At least a Google device would be SafeSearch compatible. We purchased a 7” Nest Hub and brought it home for a try. Works great and did everything that our Lenovo did, including opening up websites again, The two downsides however are 1. Websites take considerable time to show up and load as you scroll down the screen. 2. Scrolling down the screen is done by swiping your finger up on the screen, but more aften than not you end up engaging the quick task bar at the bottom of the screen instead. The device clearly has a minimal chipset / memory, which is not surprising given the low price. It is also too small for decent scrolling operation. Our old Levono was an 8” device which was probably the smallest size to scroll properly with. Bottomline - we will be taking this back to Bestbuy tomorrow and give the big brother Goigle hub a try to see if it performs any better.. It is a bit concerning that Google basically deactivated website viewing on a device heralding this ability when we bought it. Google should at the very least allow the SafeSearch feature to be disabled if desired.

    I love this !! I connect all my speakers to the Hub now i can hear music in every room I'm walking through or cleaning in. I can also send any YouTube video to the hub and watch it there. Only draw back sometimes she likes my husband's voice better than mine lol

    Nest Hub 7” Smart Display with Google Assistant (2nd Gen) - Chalk. This is the second one that I purchased because Ilike the one that Ialready have. My daughter has been ill and I purchased this nest hub and a smart bulb for her so she can control her lights without needing to get up. It works well for her.

    This is so nice to have. I hesitated because I don't like technology listening in my house all the time. But, it is great to be able to have the screen available when needed, music, podcasts, even youtube to keep my kiddo busy when I'm working in the kitchen

    Easy to set up and use. Have the Google Assistant throughout your house, it's great for looking up recipes if it's in the kitchen and you can use it as an alarm clock in a bedroom. Five stars.

    Love this thing. Got my family to buy 2 more for their rooms. It lets you cast shows to it and stuff using the chromecast button which is avalible in almost every streaming app. The speakers sound good. It even told me happy birthday.

    Google Home has not let me down so far... comparing to other brands, Google Home really brings all your smart devices all together in one place. With routines, it makes things almost perfect!
