      Hi Mickey, thanks for giving us feedback about the Nest Hub Max, and we’re sorry to hear of your poor experience with its performance and connectivity.

      Your Nest display could be having trouble connecting to Google, and these simple steps might be helpful:
      - Check your Wi-Fi network for possible congestion. Relieving some of your connected devices may help free up some bandwidth space.
      - Check the distance between the Nest display and your router. Ensure that it is within a line of sight from your router.
      - Check for wireless interference with other Wi-Fi hotspots or appliances and devices nearby.
      - Restart Nest display and router to refresh the connection.
      - Reset your Nest display. On the back of Nest Hub, press and hold both volume buttons together for about 10 seconds. Your Nest Hub will let you know that it's resetting.

      For additional assistance, we can guide you through further troubleshooting steps if you can contact us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hi GsDwnHllFst, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to learn that your Nest Hub Max randomly goes dark.

      You may try to do the following troubleshooting:
      - Ensure that you are using the official power adapter that came with the Nest display.
      - Plug your device in a different power outlet, and then attempt a factory reset.

      If the issue persists, we may need to take a closer look at your device to investigate what’s causing the issue. Please feel free to contact our support team using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hi Really,

      Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your expectations fell short while using your Nest Hub Max. Nest Hub Max should trigger and listen to your voice command after it hears the hotwords "OK Google", or "Hey Google". There are different factors that may affect the Nest Hub Max voice recognition. We recommend checking the below things to get the best experience:

      - Make sure nothing is covering the two forward-facing microphone.
      - Check if Nest Hub Max is powered on correctly.
      - Be within 3 to 5 feet of the Nest Hub Max device when saying the hotword.
      - Ensure there is no excessive background noise.

      If you haven't done so, you can restart your Nest Hub Max and Wi-Fi router by unplugging the power cords from the devices. Leave them unplugged for at least a minute before plugging them back in. This will help re-establish the connection.

      If the issue persists, you can perform a factory data reset on your Nest Hub Max, then set up again. Press and hold both volume buttons for about 10 seconds at the back of Nest Hub Max. The Google Assistant will play a sound to confirm that the factory reset started.

      Our support team would be glad to help you troubleshoot any issues with it. If you're willing, you can reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/contactflow Nest

      Hi Jaden, thanks for posting your feedback to let us know of your issue with the Nest Hub Max, and we’re sorry to hear that the screen turned black.

      Here are some workarounds if your Nest display has a black screen:
      - Confirm that the device is powered on (turn on the privacy switch to check if the light comes on or ask a question and check if the Assistant responds).
      - Check the brightness offset in the Google Home App isn't set too low.
      - Reboot the device.
      - As a last resort, factory reset the device following the steps here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7073477

      If you still need help, or in the event that your display (screen) turned black again, we recommend getting in touch with us for further troubleshooting guidance here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
