    I LOVE THIS. I was afraid the screen would be too small, but it's great. I keep this one in my bathroom so I can check it in the morning and then watch my shows on netflix while I do hair and makeup. I would not like this one for cooking or watching while across a room, though.

    Took months to decide between this and an Alexa, but it works so easy with phone and other Google displays. One app on my phone for doorbell, security camera, hue lights, thermostat and smart displays.

    Needed something for our kitchen. We have google integrated in most rooms of our house. The only reason I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 stars is that it doesn't feel as responsive when saying "Hey Google" or "Okay Google" as the other google products.

    It's so easy to use and very convenient. We play Google Music on it and the clock is large and easy to read. Hey, Google is always ready to give me the temperature, the dew point and forecast. We use its alarm/timer feature. We're very pleased with it.

    I got this nest hub for so many reasons and I love it, I use it as a photo display and it’s connected to my nest doorbell on top of all the smart devices I have and use at our home. I love the color and shape and I love everything it offers. It’s very well made and very easy to use.

    Love this Google Nest. Clear sound and picture. I have it in my kitchen and use all the time. I also bought a second one for the upstairs bedroom. I am happy with all the apps on this nest.

    Impressive sound for such a compact device. Love that it integrates with the nest doorbell and thermostat. Display is crisp and vibrant. Was actually able to stream my oculus to it via its chrome cast comparability so I could see what my friends were doing in game. Pretty neat.

    A great addition to my smart home. Auto-Scrolling family photos is a feature I didn't even know I wanted. Facial recognition for personalized assistant response, above average and pretty decent sound quality for music and videos. Overall, if you use Google home then this is a must have...

    I purchased this for my 80 year old mother and she loves it, especially when she is cooking! She also finds it very easy to use and asks what the weather is first thing every morning. I would recommend this product to anyone, any age. Great product!

    Great little screen for watching videos in the kitchen and works well as a digital photo frame, got myself and my mother one! Works best if you already have smart lights and plugs that work with google assistant, but I mostly ended using mine as a timer and for casting videos.

    Not Just A Photo Frame

    I was a little skeptical of needing a Google Nest Hub. But it has been fantastic. The kids have fun asking questions and whether Google replies are right or wrong, its entertaining to them. On a more practical side, I like that it learns and knows my routines. Giving me traffic conditions before I go to work so I know whether or not I need extra time. We have this showing our online photo gallery. So whenever we have internet issues, we just look over at the Nest to see if its offline to confirm. We also like being able to see who's at the door when someone rings our Google doorbell. Audio performance is good, its not a Bose speaker or anything but it fills the room just fine. There is always promotions and sales on these, so don't buy full retail if you don't need it right away. Black Friday often sees a BOGO deal.

    We recently purchased the Nest Doorbell Battery and need something to provide a notification other than our phones. The Nest Hub 7” was a great option and was only a few dollars more than a Nest Mini which made the descion to buy the Nest Hub 7” the obvious choice.

    We got this as a photo frame to give to our parents. Considering its about a third of the average photo frame, its a pretty good deal. We can gook up google photos so that we can update the album remotely. The only issue is that sometimes it does google’s curated album instrad of ours. But for the price (got it at $49) it’s great.
