    So-so. Display is difficult to read. Setting AN ALARM is troublesome. Crashes on certain music played. I much prefer alexa devices.

    Good Smart Display, especially if you are invested in the Google ecosystem. Only downfall, not many product integrates with Google Home, Alexa has the advantage in this area.

    If you're using it to control Smart Home accessories like lighting and stuff maybe it's useful but as far as trying to use it for Spotify or other music services you really can't control anything and it's kind of pointless to have so I returned it after one day

    I've had the Nest Hub Smart Display Gen 2, for a few months now and it works great. I haven't run into any problmes with it. Not really a complaint, but if you're hoping this has killer speakers aslong with the display you'll be disapointed. Not to say the speakers are terrible, they just won't rock you socks off. Other than that its a great add to a google smart home.
