    This thing is fantastic. Bought for my wife for Christmas and she loves it. We use it for music and casting shows. Timers and reminders for everything. Integrates well with smart home - specifically Nest and Phillips Hue

    The addition of a camera opens up many options

    Google has continued to expand the options with the Max Smart Display. Recently added is the ability to skip the "wake up phrase" of Hey Google every time you want to ask the temperature. The Quick Phrase lexicon is just beginning, and requires a Nest Hub Max (the original Nest Hub and the Google Home or Mini devices won't allow Quick Phrases). The camera in the Max turns me into a trusted agent to skip the wake up. Plus having a camera in the kitchen is helpful as a security camera when we are away from home. The max has better music output and a larger screen; the use for being a counter top recipe file, and takes you through the meal prep step by step is a favorite.

    Love these Nest Hub Max's. My entire house is on the Google network, and this screen really brings it all together.. Nest Cams Doorbells, Hue lights, Thermostats, YouTube TV, Music, etc. Can all be controlled from these screens. Great sound quality as well!

    I like everything about the Nest Hub Max. The screen size is great, the speakers are decent, it's intuitive and learns. I have a Lenovo smart clock with a charger and the Nest blows it out of the water. Money well spent.

    Wanted to upgrade from my original Google Home device and this is perfect. Great picture and improved sound. Easy to install, especially if you are replacing an earlier Google Home device. Facial recognition works well but not much content available via facial recognition at this point.

    The Nest Cam Battery is an indoor and outdoor camera that can be used completely without any wires. One could use the Nest Cam with the provided power cable if desired. Everything needed to install including screws and screw anchors needed to mount the camera are included. Before any of the physical installation is performed, you will need to download the Google Home app onto your phone and scan the QR code that comes with the NestCam to set it up with your existing Wi-Fi connection and your smartphone. It is a good idea to physically place the Nest Cam in the location you will install it and confirm that you have a good Wi-Fi signal, and that video quality is going to be good.

    We've waited a long time for the Google Nest hub max to be released and it does not disappoint. We already have the Google Nest home system in place and the home max is a great addition. The speaker is upgraded and the the sound is fantastic. The camera is great for talking to family and friends. It zooms in, pans out, and follows your movements. With facial recognition it will bring up your routines and calendar just by walking into the room. We are super happy with this purchase.

    Setup is a bit complicated but it works great. The camera is nice to view on the Nest App but no where in my research was I able to find that it did not have nightmode. At night the camera will stay on, but the image will be black. It is not like nest cams where you can see at night. It is still good but something to keep in mind.

    Display is perfect size on the kitchen counter. We enjoy playing music (sounds great) and of course, we enjoy asking Google for the temperature or the weather forecast, and asking basically any question you can think of. Recipe feature is excellent too!

    We purchased this to start our smart home. I love how you can control so many other devices via the hub. It was very easy to use and it is very responsive. The sound quality is great as well. We will play some music for the kids at breakfast and dinner and they love it.

    Perfect size for the kitchen counter. Makes preparing meals and desserts way easier being able to have Google read out recipes. Very helpful in quick questions about weather and traffic. Connected easily to outdoor lights to control those as well.

    The sound coming out of this thing is loud and crisp, fills a medium to large room easily. The mic seems to hear our commands from far away (good thing / bad thing too). Bright, clear display. It's responsive, ready to look things up for you. Only negatives I'd say it's the base is not adjustable, and it's kinda pricy.

    Bought this as an upgrade from the older Home Hub and absolutely love the size of the screen. Not sure I can go back on that account. The camera can be a helpful addition (you can always disable it) but my only complaints are a lack of 1) group Duo video calls, and 2) no "night vision"--which makes it not useful as a security camera at night.

    It was easy to set up, we bought this for my dad who recently had a stroke and could no longer use his hands to hold the remote or cell phone….easy to set up and works great with the voice commands. I’m planning to buy my uncle one for Christmas as he is a quadriplegic and has specifically asked for this device :-)
