This actually has some great audio to the speakers along with treble and bass. I really enjoy being able to connect it to my Nest Doorbell and use it as a camera and audio to see whats going on. Connecting it to netflix is a strange feature, but ends up being pretty cool when cooking for awhile in the kitchen. Can connect to Apple music which is great! Controls all google home devices too like thermostat and speakers/cameras.

I haven’t had this hub very long. I’m sure I’ve only scratched the surface. I bought it to go along with my Google Security system. So far it doesn’t do much with the security system and it has a male voice that I haven’t found out how to change. I do like the way it connects to my tv, but you have to be Very Specific in your instructions. I only found this out when I was “hey googling” it, and the tv started responding. Very frustrating in the beginning. As I played around with it, I found the response time was very slow. That’s why I gave it a 4. I’ll have to give it more time to find out what else it can do for me.

Although it's not perfect, I'm very happy with this product. I replace a mini with the hub. I like that it has a display, better sounds, and a hand gesture feature. It takes a little time to get used to the navigation, though. You also cannot download additional apps. Although you can play Spotify and view some of your playlists, you can't download a full Spotify app which is a negative for us. Sirus XM also doesn't work as smoothly. Otherwise, we are very happy with its design, photo album, voice command, hand gesture, etc. It's a must-have for a smart home.

The lack of camera makes duo calls with video option unnecessary. Google seems to be having lots of bugs and you may have a difficult time trying to register for the sleep sensor feature to be enabled. The media interaction leaves a lot to be desired as you can't see your playlists to choose from only the recommendations list (speaking for Spotify, I don't use any other music apps)
Improved sound and mic means better interactive experience. I greatly enjoy the dim screen and nighttime schedule options.
As with most of Google products, sometimes the foundation of Google itself is what let's down the items that depends on Google network improvement and software updates.
Overall not a bad purchase but as compared to Amazon products, Google is a bit behind the curve.

Brand response from Nest Support

Hi there, GoddessOatia. Thanks for posting a review about the Nest Hub (2nd gen). We’re sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations.
You can try to turn Motion Sense on to enable Sleep Sensing feature. Your display uses Motion Sense’s low-power radar to detect movement and breathing. No distinguishable images of your body or face are generated or used for Sleep Sensing with Motion Sense. Please note that since Sleep Sensing monitors the spot you usually sleep, children, pets, and other family members sleeping in that spot will affect your data. Device placement, motion, and other devices nearby might lead to inaccurate readings. If someone nearby coughs or snores while Sleep Sensing is on, this feature might process and attribute those sounds to you.
Also, you can link your Spotify account as your default music service on the Nest display. This default service will be used first when possible. Visit this link to learn more: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7551876
We appreciate you pointing out the features you enjoy and some areas we can work on for users like you. Rest assured, this will reach our product team for future improvements. And if help with the performance of the Nest display is needed, we welcome you to visit us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

overall, I love the design. bezels could be thinner but it doesn't bother me too much. Speakers are good for a digital assistant and the display resolution is much better than a previous echo show I had. (I upgraded because my echo show started displaying tons of lines across the screen). Im a little worried about burn-in issues with this display as it doesn't refresh and move the time into different places like the show did. OH and sleep sensing is so cool! I haven't compared it with my Apple Watch but it does seem pretty accurate.

Absolutely love it. It makes my mornings easier. I can set an alarm or ask it to wake me up with music. I watch youtube videos from my bed. I absolutely love this product. If I could afford it, I would have one in each room.

I absolutely love the Nest Hub! The speaker quality is impressive for its size, providing clear and vibrant sound. It essentially offers all the convenience of the Google Home app without needing to use your phone, making it an indispensable addition to my smart home setup.

Solid display giving you easy access to voice service and quality sound experience. Sleep tracking def helps to better analyze your sleep data as well.

Bought this because it was on sale and had a little extra money. Honestly one of the best things I could have done. Since I bought it I use it all the time and ended up buying the thermostat and minis for all around the house. Bought a second one for my grandmother as she is getting older and she loves it that she can call me on duo.

Overall great experience, it responds very well and the sound output is excellent, it could use a better software interface and a better variety of Lock screens.

Very user friendly and easy to set up. I have the whole google eco system so I love the ability to see when someone is at the door. It also is a nice addition to my home as I am able to display my photo slide show.

It's cute and I enjoy the fact that it doesn't have a camera. It synced seamlessly and works well with my other devices. It has a decent sound for a bedroom, I wouldn't want to put this in the living room or family room unless you're not using it to play louder music. Overall I debated weather out not I really needed it over just a speaker with better sound but I'm glad I made this purchase

One of my favorite devices! I initially bought one for my office but quickly went back two weeks later to get another for my bedroom. I use it literally every day! It keeps me productive in the office, I listen to music, watch videos, and even control the lights in my home. I absolutely love it! I'd purchase one for every room!

Got this to sit on my desk while I work to easily be able to control my nest thermostat, quickly select which Spotify songs/playlists I want to listen to, etc. Takes up minimal space on my desk. The only bummer (but doesn't warrant a decrease in stars) is that I thought it would link to my Arlo doorbell camera and enable me to see who/what was there, but unfortunately it doesn't.
