Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

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.

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.

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.

The device is phenomenal and actually listens and understands what I'm saying. A warm welcome and switch from Amazon having you YELL and HOLLAR bc it never understands you.

I love it. I can control my light bulbs with it. And a bunch of other things too. I love it. I just purchased another 1 for my friend for christmas.

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.

Great display! I like the sleep monitor and ease of use.

This was also an amazing purchase especially going with the camera, i have it next to me on my night stand and it comes in so much handy every single day

This is the 2nd Nest Hub 7 inch I have purchased. I enjoy the digital picture frame but can also use google assistant and play music. Also recommend the Nest Hub Max. Larger size is nice and great wide screen for video calls.

Easy to set up and stream music and recipe tutorials.

Love the google hub nest and this is my third purchase and I will recommend it to all my friends. It helps by reminding me of my appointment, shopping list, listening music, I use to learn, speak Spanish.

Love the display, the compact form factor, and sound quality for something so small. My only gripe is it doesn't have a camera like the hub max, but lacking a camera does make it more appropriate for bedrooms and bathrooms.

So glad I purchased this device. I recently purchased a high quantity of smart devices for my home and it is extremely useful to manages all of them from this hub. I was also surprised how loud the speaker is when either asking Google for assistance or listening to music.

Great addition to my google home from the google mini. The speaker is loud and clear, the microphone and voice capturing is spot on and I find myself not having to repeat myself. The customization and night mode are great.

I absolutely love my new Nest Hub! It allows me to set timers, look up recipes on Pinterest, watch Netflix, and listen to music on Spotify all with my voice. I can even ask how much time is left on the timer from another room. While not in use I love the digital photo frame that cycles through my pictures on Google Photos, including the dates so I can remind my self of different events. Great purchase! Set up was pretty easy to get everything connected. I used my Samsung Galaxy phone to get logged in to all the apps making set up a breeze.

Love it. Much more intelligent than Alexa. Able to make a mistake when pronouncing a command and Google gives much more flexibility opposed to Alexa. I would like Google to tweak there google home app to be a little bit more fluid and centralize all the devices that could connect to it. I’m tech savvy so setup was simple for me but my wife struggles.

Very nice display. Very easy to set-up and use. I would highly recommend this to anyone who needs one of these. I can yell at it from downstairs and it hears me!

Picture and sound quality is great! It is also very responsive even at 30ft away.

Great product but horrible set up process. I recommend with reservations. Once set up, the device itself is great and super helpful. We use it in the kitchen and nice to have for controlling smart lights, playing music, weather, answering questions, etc. Set up however was horrible. You need to activate the unit through the Google Home App. I own a new Google Pixel 6 Pro phone, this should have been a simple process and completed with a few clicks but setup was not compatible with a Google device; only way to set up was through my kids Apple iPad by downloading the Google Home App onto it. I was able to figure this out after about 20 min but I could see how many people would give up and return it. If we didn't have an Apple device I don't know how we could have activated it. Manufacturer really needs to address this major flaw. Once activated, it can now be used through the Google Home App on our Android devices.
