Customers appreciate the Nest Hub 2nd Gen for its ease of use, sound quality, and ideal screen size, especially for bedside use. The Google Assistant integration, reasonable price, and sleep tracking capabilities are also well-received. However, some customers have noted the absence of a camera and occasional sluggishness in responsiveness. Additionally, a few users mentioned compatibility issues with certain devices.

    Love having Google in the kitchen. I use timers and set reminders all the time. Having a screen with a Google Assistant is the best.

    MAJOR flaw holds it back

    The screen is nice. The display is a good size. However, it has one fatal flaw. It just does not hold a signal with its Google nest cams. It’s been an issue for years. It’s still an issue. I bought these for the purpose of monitoring my home, including my child’s room. The camera will.not.stay.on. I am lucky if it stays on the screen for more than 15 minutes before displaying “camera feed is not available” I know this is a software/design issue because it works just fine on my Google home app on my iPhone. But, I don’t want to have to use my iPhone as a monitor 24/7. That what these are for!! Big, big flaw in the unit. I cannot give it any more than 2 stars

    Perfect for the bedroom. I don’t feel like it’s very user friendly but I don’t mess with it all too much. Got it on sale. Wouldn’t pay full price. Sound is very good.

    Works for all purposes suggested. Controls lights, plays music, and answers questions. Even plays YouTube. Only suggestion is it needs a manual volume button

    Daughter uses a Google nest hub (no video) and loves it. I saw the video unit on sale. We use it in the kitchen and listen to music. Simple setup. I don't like Spotify and it doesn't allow you to use TIDAL directly. But as a kitchen assistant it's fine.

    i got this on black friday sale and it works as a great bedside alarm clock and weather display. i dont use this for anything else as the UI does lag a bit. it's faster to use your voice. the speaker is loud and clear enough to fill a small bedroom.
