Customer Ratings & Reviews

The display itself I really do like. Google occasionally seems to have things 'out of sync' (not sure how to describe it). The Hub is perfect for my bedside table. Starts my morning routine when I stop the alarm or when I just say 'Hey Google, good morning!' Silly I guess. And certainly not a necessity but gadgets have become sort of a hobby. (I have 22 various 'smart' devices in my home) I notice better reviews for Alexa devices but I've always had android phones and I just decided to stay with Google.

Simple to set up and use. I primarily use it for controlling smart devices in my home, and listening to music. The display looks great, and the audio is decent enough for a small room. If it included a port to charge your phone, it would be perfect.

If you'd like the display without the bulk, this is a great in-between of the Nest Mini and Nest Hub Max. It would be nice if it did have a camera for those video calls but still worth it given the lower price. I recommend only purchasing when on sale.

I purchased this night table clock, radio, display to track my sleep. I tis doing an OK job since it does not agree at all with my sleep tracking watch. I feel it is because next to the nest there are two persons and it takes an average of both. thanks

I love my new nest 7, I received it as a Christmas gift and enjoy that I can see recipes, and even get google video dual calls on it. It comes in handy when I’m Cooking and don’t want to touch my phone while cooking I can set timer, check the weather, listen to music l, make calls, search recipes etc.

Excellent midrange addition to the Echo line, with a decent screen, pretty good sound quality, and all the usual Google Home features. It could be a nice first introduction to the lineup, if you're not sure you want to spend a lot of money, or a good addition to another room in your house. (I use mine in the kitchen, especially for the timer feature.)

Both this to replace my previous unit which showed up a cracked display randomly one day. It works like a charm and if we didn't like the first one, wer would not have invested in a second one. Display is nice and vibrant, good size for tight spaces, and shows just enough information so you do have to look it up yourself. Just wish it had a camera built into it so you would have the purchase its bigger brother

The sound quality is much improved over the 1st gen, not that the 1st gen sound quality was bad. The 2nd gen is more bassy, without sounding muddy. The sleep tracking is more useful than I thought it would be. The sleep data is pretty in depth. The Soli gestures to play/pause music and to snooze alarms/timers is pretty cool as well.

This makes a nice clock! I wish it had the option to just display the current outside temp without a clock but it doesn't. If you want to watch things like YouTube or Netflix on it then it's great to have but if you just want it for voice commands and to use as a speaker then you might want to just get the speaker. Really depends on what you want to do - but you will still need to have the "Google Home" app on a mobile device in order to make full use of this.

Can control just about all of your smart devices via this unit. Lights, appliances, Cameras, and provides decent sounding Music. Besides answering your questions, device is useful when you have multiple devices to communicate via broadcast messages, and leaving digital notes for your Gen Z household.

Easy to set up. I like asking the time or getting reminded to do things. I can ask for a recipe, set one or more timers or alarms, play music, ask for store hours for specific places. I can listen to the news....all in all, a handy device!

If you own a Google smart display, it's likely that you have the first-generation Nest Hub. However, there are other options available, such as the Lenovo Smart Display powered by Google Assistant or the more expensive Nest Hub Max with a built-in camera. For many smart home consumers, the smaller Nest Hub, priced at $130 and frequently on sale, is the preferred choice. But now, there's a new model to take its place. The second-generation Nest Hub is not only smarter but also cheaper at $100. With its impressive features, it's definitely worth considering. However, Google has introduced a new feature called Sleep Sensing, which may be unsettling for some users, similar to Amazon's Echo Show 10.

The update with sleep assist is worth the purchase. I was able to create a morning routine that uses the smart bulbs in my ceiling fan to slowly brighten my room to wake me up in the morning. Sound quality is good for music while I prepare for my day and doesn't take up a lot of night stand real estate.

I am really impressed with the Nest hub. I was looking at some other smart clocks when I found this item that is much more powerful, and comparably priced at the sale price I paid. It also integrates easily with my phone and the Google Home app. I am using it as an alarm clock mainly, but I like all of the added features of streaming music, controlling my smart lights, thermostats, and more. I also like that I can turn off the mike so I only have it on when I want to. If I want to set an alarm easily, I can flip on the speaker, and Hey Google the alarm settings, and turn the mike off again.

Easy to use. Family friendly. Easy to set up and install in home and on phone.

I love smart devices. Especially, smart hubs that will allow a user to integrate items in their home/ lifestyle to be used and connected. I had an opportunity to get this Google hub during a special sales promotion and because Google is such a reputable company, with strong smart devices. I decided to give it a chance. The display is a nice size. Clear, and with a bright visible screen. This will allow the user to connect to a few devices like a sound bar, a TV, and even smart bulbs and lights within their home. However, the connectivity is not universally present, like it is with the Amazon Alexa devices. Even little things like the display of the date and time are so minuscule when compared to the size of the actual screen, that it’s even hard to see it unless you’re up close. The speaker sounds good when & if you’re using it for podcast or audiobooks. But if you’re listening to music, it could be so much better! and lacks a lot of the characteristic and stereo quality needed for today’s genres. Value wise, I think it’s a good value but Google definitely needs to upgrade the functionality and even some of the smart component connectivity through the Google app. This can allow things to be even more seamless and easier to use. Especially for first time users. Ultimately, I think this item is good! not great! but there’s plenty of potential and opportunity for the future.

I use this device as a bedside display it's very handy for some home applications and has a decent speaker i used to have a nest mini and I'm glad i upgraded to this is surprisingly good considering one how dim the display gets when you turn off all the light and two how customisable it is. But be carful it took me to a bit to figure out why my alarm kept defaulting back to the original sound apparently there is a bug with alarm routine and rise snd shine alarms however if you just set a normal alarm and choose a custome sound or music alarm it works just fine

I got it as a Christmas present and I love it! It can play white noise, music, podcasts, it can track your sleep, etc. I have 2 in the house, one in my bedroom and 1 in my kitchen. Overall a great product!

I absolutely love the nest hubs. They are the perfect size and can be placed in any room. The sound quality is pretty good, and the screen can get very bright.

So easy to use. I love it Great quality. Clear quality. Highly recommened
