    Overall, a little disappointed in the sound from the speaker when docked and functionality doesn't exactly mimic the Google home display.

    Really like my Nest Hub Max except for the miss leading advertising by Google and Dish that the Google Assist works with Hopper 3. All other features work great but if you are buying with this feature as major importance, DON'T buy it.

    Love the way pretty much how almost everything works but the fact that, you can't adjust the angle view of camera. So I have to wedge it if you're sitting position is lower than the hub. Really disappointing coming from the know it all Google

      Hey there, OXI102840. Thanks for leaving feedback about the Nest Hub Max. We’re glad that you like it, but we’re sorry to hear that your music experience is less than ideal.

      A range issue or wireless interference can affect the performance of your display. It can pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away. You may also check for objects such as mirrors and refrigerators between the camera and your router as these items could block the connection. Read Troubleshooting Wireless Interference here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9276282

      We also recommend checking your Wi-Fi network to see if your bandwidth is congested, which can happen if you have too many devices connected on the same bandwidth or if your network package is not enough to handle the data traffic on the network. Removing other connected devices to your Wi-Fi may relieve network congestion. If your display is mounted too far from your Wi-Fi router, you may need to extend your Wi-Fi network’s range using an extender, boosters or additional Wi-Fi access points.

      For additional help, you can contact us through our support channels found here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    The tablet that serves as a smart display is a nice idea. However, this smart display is very limited in its implementation. Google Assistant is a hit or miss, apps are limited, Nest gave me an error and couldn't connect. What gives? Overall, I'm not satisfied with this product. It's been returned

      Hi Breville, thanks for sharing a review about your experience with Nest Hub Max, and it's unfortunate to learn of your issue with the performance of its Google Assistant.

      If your bedroom Nest display is having a hard time picking up your voice commands but the other Nest display works fine, there’s a possibility that the bedroom display is having trouble connecting with Google. We’d like to rule out the possibility of your Wi-Fi connection being the cause, and if you haven’t yet, we suggest the simple steps below:
      - Unplug your Nest Hub and wait for 10 seconds, then plug it back in. Wait for the device to reboot, then try to ask the Assistant your question again.
      - Reboot your modem and router.
      - Try to switch between 2.4 GHZ and 5 GHz network to see which band is more reliable
      - If there are nearby devices that may cause interference, such as microwave ovens, wireless speakers, baby monitors, Wi-Fi routers, try to move your display to a different room, or to move it closer to your router.

      Also, Retraining your Nest display, to better recognize your voice, and adjusting the Hotword sensitivity may be helpful with the issue. You may follow the steps on these help articles:
      - Check which devices are using Voice Match: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7588195
      - Adjust how sensitive Google Assistant is to “Hey Google: https://support.google.com/assistant/answer/9712065

      We're always here for your support needs. Let us know at the following link if further assistance is required: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hello there, AlbertR. We’re sorry to hear about your experience with the Google Nest Hub Max. We’ll share this information with the right team for future improvements.

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