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.

    Simple product, not very flexible in capabilities

    Good for simple needs, great as a photo frame. My biggest issue is that it does not function as I would have expected coming from Google. The audio assistant is useful, but you cannot control it with touch very well. Most functions where you would expect to be able to search for content (Netflix, Youtube, etc), do not allow it. The calendar will only show you the current day. Rather disappointed in this product. However, I did purchase it as means of monitoring Google Nest cameras and doorbells, and for this it works just fine.

    great little display which is very useful in my home to control smart devices and to see who's at the door. My only gripe is that it often loses sync with the music playing on my network and I need to unplug the display to reset.

    The screen would sometimes glitch out when swiping. I would have to turn off and turn back on for the glitch to stop. Overall it does function as it should.

    Use it as a clock on the nightstand, works pretty well and isn't too bright. It also doubles as a baby monitor because we have a nest cam in the baby's room. Works well as a backup baby monitor for that.

      Hi Nish, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear about any difficulty you may be having when giving voice commands for your Nest Hub (2nd Gen).

      Adjusting your Nest Hub's mic sensitivity and retraining it to better recognize your voice can be helpful with the issue. Check out the steps below:
      Retrain Voice Match:
      - On your phone or tablet, open the Google Home app.
      - At the top right, tap your Profile picture or initial and then Assistant settings and then Voice Match.
      - Tap Teach your Assistant your voice again and then Retrain.

      We also recommend changing Nest Hub's hotword sensitivity:
      - Open your Google Home app.
      - Select your Nest Hub.
      - At the top right, tap the Settings (Gear) icon.
      - Then tap Audio.
      - Then tap "Hey Google" sensitivity and adjust the slider to make your Nest Hub more responsive to the hotword.

      If the issue remains, we suggest contacting our support team and work with you to isolate the root cause. You can reach out to us using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
