    Very flawed device - Returned

    Compared to the smaller and cheaper Nest Home Hub, the Nest Home Hub Max is completely flawed. If you have an existing household set up with other Nest cameras and doorbells, the camera on the Hub Max will not work. In fact when trying to activate the camera, it will knock your other cameras offline. Also, this device continued to lose network connectivity. Three hours on a support call with Google could not fix the camera issue. While the bigger screen and speaker were nice, I could not justify the significant cost of this device over the smaller Home Hub we already had and worked fine. We returned the Home Hub Max.

    Just average for the price. I purchased it for $60 off retail only to have it go on sale 5 weeks later for $100 discount. It is a bit slow. The photo frame often malfunctions and I must reset the device to get it to work. It displayed the temperature when I first set it up and within a week the temperature disappeared from the display. I have tried every online tip without success. I have reset it multiple times, updated it and factory reset it. My smaller Nest Hub has worked well. The MAXhas been frustrating. I have a Google/Nest ecosystem, so this was my choice. It could be better. I would recommend with reservations.

    I got this so I could watch surfers catch Mondo waves while cooking up some tubular nosh for my squad (wife and kids). I can leave it in the kitchen and stream to our dining room TV and continue catching the waves while my daughter says the prayer!

    Best Home Hub

    This hub is the best one for Google households. The screen has great visibility and the Familiar Face feature is great for providing personalized info. One request for future models would be to have a way to change the angle of the camera. Since mine sits above my microwave the view field is a little high.

    I bought this plus the smaller model. Although they work well, I’m very disappointed that they do not work with my Ring doorbell. This was a major reason I purchased these. The claims in the description are false. I’m considering returning them.

      Hi Ralph,

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry to hear that Nest Hub Max didn't quite meet your expectations.

      Ring doorbell has limited support with Nest Hub Max. It supports basic features such as starting a new recording and asking the last time the doorbell rang.

      Your feedback helps us improve our products and services. If you decide to give Google Nest Hub Max another try in the future, we're always here to assist you and you can contact us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/contactflow Nest

    Love it. Small quirks are, the hand gesture to start and stop music is sometimes too sensitive (will stop/start music in its own when i accidentally pick up my hand), and sometimes it doesn't pick up my hand at all!

    Got this for my 92 year old father. It works great because he can just tell Google what station he wants on the TV, or to turn the lights on or off, what the weather is, call someone, etc. I know that my father could not set it up, so that is why the lower mark for "ease of use."

    I purchased this for myself and my parents who live 16 hours away from us. It's great bc they can just talk to it and it will call me. I also have it set up with the Google minis in every room just incase they fall or something happens. We can also all be on one family app.
