    Bought a few to put around the home to showcase photos from Google Photos. Sound is not as great as the Hub Max or the original Google Home Speakers.

    Somehow I really thought it had a camera. If it had a camera I would give it 5 stars. Not sure if I’m keeping it or returning… It’s good but not amazing or extraordinary.

      Hey there, NoelleL. We hear your concerns regarding Nest Hub (2nd Gen) not picking up your voice as often as you’d like. You can control how sensitive Google Assistant is to voice commands — here’s how:

      1. Open the Google Home app.
      2. At the bottom, tap Home.
      3. Touch and hold your speaker or Smart Display.
      4. At the top right, tap Device settings, Audio, and then “Hey Google” sensitivity.
      5. Choose how sensitive you want Google Assistant to be when it responds to you.

      Hi Mauricio, thanks for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that you’re having issues with voice commands on your Nest Hub (2nd Gen).

      Sometimes, your Nest Hub (2nd Gen) might not activate when you say “Hey Google” or “Ok Google,” particularly in a noisy environment. If this frequently happens, you can make it more sensitive to the hotword. If you haven't tried yet, we recommend retraining Nest Hub (2nd Gen) with your voice using the Voice Match feature to better recognize your voice commands:

      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.

      Change Nest Hub’s hotword sensitivity
      - Open your Google Home app
      - Select your Nest Hub (2nd Gen)
      - 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 (2nd Gen) more responsive to the hotword.

      If still unresolved, feel free to reach out to our support team so that we can take a look at the issue and help improve your experience here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    This Hub is great. It has so many features. I don't use half of them. I do like that at night it adjusts its lighting so that it doesn't get to bright.
