    The only bad side is the screen is on the smaller side. For whatever reason, linking the software to your account IS NOT seemless either.

      Hi there, Blindman. We appreciate your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing some difficulties with your Nest Hub Max.

      Sometimes, your Nest Hub Max might not activate when you say “Hey Google” or “Ok Google,” particularly in a noisy environment. If this frequently happens, you can make it more sensitive to the hotword. If you haven't tried yet, we recommend retraining Nest Hub Max with your voice using the Voice Match feature to better recognize your voice commands:

      Retrain Voice Match
      - On your phone or tablet, open the Google Home app
      - At the top right, tap your Profile picture or initial and then Assistant settings and then Voice Match.
      - Tap Teach your Assistant your voice again and then Retrain.

      Change Nest Hub’s hotword sensitivity
      - Open your Google Home app
      - Select your Nest Hub Max
      - At the top right, tap the Settings (Gear) icon
      - Then tap Audio.
      - Then tap "Hey Google" sensitivity and adjust the slider to make your Nest Hub Max more responsive to the hotword.

      For additional questions, feel free to reach out to our support team so that we can take a look at the issue and help improve your experience here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    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.

    There is little advantage to having this over the 2nd generation one for a lot less. Won't connect to other Bluetooth speakers but others will. You cannot add any apps.
