Huge screen, love how it has a built in nest camera for when I’m not home. Easy to use and hook up to your phone. Would definitely recommend

This was bought for an smaller version, improved are screen size and responses of commands, more hardware are now integrated with this unit than before. Picture are great, sound are much more clarity EQ setting is a plus. Built in Camera is okay not so good, wish there were a tilt option for the camera so it does not pointed upward toward ceiling all the time. Maybe next version will have this function. Overall was an excellent purchase recommend to anyone that has the older version with smaller screen. Black Friday Price was 199.99.

I bought this for a Christmas gift for my wife and she just loves it! She’s already setup her new cookbook as well as using the timer functions. I’ve set it up for our Swann security cameras and she can see who’s at the front door by just asking Google!! Very cool! We did not setup the internal camera because the device is in a relatively small kitchen. The sound is great, we just setup Pandora radio and it works great! You will not be disappointed with this purchase and Best Buy had a free google device as well with the purchase!!

The best hub max has been great for us. It’s a good way to view different apps and tv while making meals. I can pull up different recipes while cooking. It controls my smart home bulbs and devices as well. The added bonus of the camera on this is nice for the piece of mind of checking up on the house while I’m not there. We have the regular size nest hub and the speaker sounds much better on the full size unit.

Works great, can do everything I do on my Google home app on my phone and more. I have it on my work desk, and can easily check my Google camera to check on my baby, play spotify, and cast other apps as well.

Image and video quality and sound is perfect. I like it and recommend

Nest works with many smart devices... but not all. I am using this device in our kitchen. Overall, I am quite happy with this device which has good sound and is very usable for short video calls, and is really great for looking up recipes overall. There's a new 'pause' gesture as of Dec 2020 that is supposed to pause a video when you hold your hand towards the unit palm out, but it is not working for us. (Yet?) If you have other smart devices in your home, check them for compatibility and if you're not all-in on one platform, just be aware of what integrations you might be missing. I'll give two examples of video cameras. I have both Arlo and Ring cameras. Arlo is a 3rd party who doesn't make smart assistants like Google, Apple or Amazon. Their integration with Nest / Google Home is fair. I can usually get my cameras to display on the unit, but the Arlo video doorbell sometimes will not display, and if it does, it will display sideways. I also have a Ring camera on my garage and it won't display on the Nest at all.. very likely the reason is that Ring is owned by Amazon, who probably thinks of Google Home as a majority competitor to Alexa. My Liftmaster/Chamberlain smart garage door opener integrates to Ring, but not Nest, but I haven't tried actually installing the Chamberlain myQ app on the Nest. (It works fine, of course, only Android smartphone. As does Ring.) At any rate, I would absolutely recommend this device UNLESS you have nothing but Ring cameras. If you have only Ring cameras, you probably should buy an Echo Show instead. I do have some experience with Alexa and I think that Google Home gives better search results when asking natural language questions. If you ask about trivia or historical things, you're much more likely to get the right answer from Google, as of this review (1/11/21)

I love the Max. I look for recipes, weather, general info all the time. Have one in my kitchen, bathroom and home office. Watch TV programs with You Tube TV when I'm getting ready in the morning in the bathroom. Make video calls with Duo. Create my grocery list each week and syncs with my phone when I'm in the grocery store. Turns on my lights. Communicates with my Nest thermostat. Planning to next get cameras at front and back door to view on my Max's. I love these little buggers!

Very easy to setup and add all the devices you want to control. Photo frame is excellent, we can control what to display ..

This is definitely an upgrade from the google (nest) hub. The bigger screen makes using it a lot easier and it also has much better sound with the subwoofer. Similar to the other it utilizes most of its set up via the google home app which at times can be frustrating. It is very reliant on voice to accomplish most of its tasks which can be either a plus or minus. For instance, it took me almost an hour to set up making google duo calls on it because it all had to be done through apps and setting up individualized profiles on the hub max. It would be easier to have a native app on the device so that my kids could use it which is the reason I bought it.

Works great for everything. The recording of my room given I'm renting with roommates is extremely beneficial for tense or argumentive situations. Only issue I've had is it mishearing something from my TV to cause it to activate.

Easy to use. Great camera and sound. I love to be able to manage my thermostat, and security system in a scheduled way.

Was lucky to snag this during the Black Friday deal from Google (I would probably re-consider if I hadn't gotten it at the BFCM price to be honest) and I was shocked when it arrived how much bigger the display is. With the camera, it also proactively can tell you're in the room and will welcome you and personalize the display based on who it sees. I don't use it for calling, I just wanted a bigger display in the kitchen so it was easier to see from further away.

I have many google nest devices (i.e. Nest Home, Nest mini, etc) but gym nest hub max is the best! The 10 inch display and amazing speaker quality is pure. Only complaint I have is I wish it had more bass, however I’m sure the Google Home Max is where it’s at for the bass tones I want. I have recommended this product to all of my customers as I am an electrician and anyone looking to add cameras in and outside the house. This display does it all view all your cameras in one spot! 10/10

Absolutely thrilled with this purchase! The quality exceeded my expectations, and the performance is outstanding. Setup was a breeze, and the features are exactly as described. Best Buy delivered on time, and the customer service was excellent. Highly recommend this product to anyone looking for reliability and value!

I have not had great luck with any Nest product but the Nest Hub Max is an excellent quality smart display that is easy to use. The screen is a perfect size for a place like a kitchen countertop. The screen looks great and the sound is very good. There is a lot of customization to suit your needs. The camera is excellent. I have had this for just over a year now and it has been working well. No problems! I just wish all Nest products were this good.

This review is for the device, not Google assistant Looks clean, goes great w any home Sounds amazing for what you get. Loud, pure sound, step above average sound Open just about any google video, music app Even make video calls using google meet-duo Resolution is great for what you get Screen is a nice size, not to big or small

Perfect for the living room and the speakers are good

The packaging of the display was well done. Plugging it installed what it needed. I was totally impressed with the screen. The setup shows you how to use the hub. The colors are vibrant. I like the fact you can watch youtube videos or chrome cast. I tested the Duo calls with it and it has a great field of view of the camera. It follows the person around which is nice unless you don't like that kind of thing. The audio is great. I have hue lights and it can tell me on the screen how many lights are on and what the temperature is in the house. You can either touch the lights and it will list the lights you can turn on or off. There is a room view which gives all your connected devices. I have hue lights and Samsung Smartthings and it works seamlessly. There are some things that aren't integrated yet. Specifically, the only way to start a routine is by using your voice to start the routine or using the screen. There is no way to start a routine such as a Smartthings multipurpose sensor to actually tell you a door is open. This is minor and I'm sure this will be incorporated soon. The display is a great display and the camera can be used for a security camera. I have nest cameras and you can watch the feeds of the camera's. I don't have the Google Nest Hello but I saw videos that when the doorbell rings it will show the person at the door on the screen. I would recomend this display to anyone.

It is a very nice addition to the nest camera network that we use. It helps us to keep an eye on different areas without having to have your phone out to watch it.and with the other google home devices as well.
