      Hi Paintmebeautiful21, thanks for sharing your feedback with us about the Nest Hub (2nd gen). We’re sorry to hear of your disappointment that it has no camera on it. We understand the convenience of having a built-in camera on your Nest display. 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.

      We always listen to what our customers like you share with us to better understand your preferences and needs. 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

      Please let us know if there’s anything we can help you with by visiting us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Great at first but noticed after a year or so, Google would randomly listen in on my family conversations and try to search what we were talking about (it still does, plus durning these listen in's, we never once said its name like "Google" or "Hey Google"). I swear am not a conspiracies but it does freak me out and maybe its just a glitch in its system. I dont know. So now, when we do need it; we have to unmute it with the manual mute button on its back. Since we use the button often, I feel like it defeats the purpose of having the Google Hub because if I need something I have to walk across a room or rooms to unmute it and then remute it, so it doesn't keep trying to search random parts of our conversations. So I hope its just my system and not all of the Google Hubs because I have always favor Google items till this incident...

    I wanted this to have a touch screen to control my Hue lights. After some initial configuration hassles, it works very well. Furthermore, I love that it has a function to display pictures while not in use.

    I have the google nest mini and thought I would like a display. So far so good. I bought one for the bedroom and one for the living room (during black Friday sale) The bedroom one is placed near by bed for two reasons, viewing the time display I chose this display for the bedroom. It also monitors my sleep patterns, I chose this setting too. I feel it is very accurate. The living room one displays my pictures. You can turn off the Mic very easily The sound is good I often turn it down to 3 out of 10 for background music. Still learning more uses of it, but I like it much more than the Nest Mini.
