    Originally it might seem overwhelming or under utilized. But the longer it is in your home, and the more ways you discover to implement automation the simpler life becomes. #lethimin

    Perfect Pair for the Nest Doorbell

    This serves as the perfect compliment to the Nest Doorbell. Instantly when the doorbell rings the image pops on the screen and you have option to communicate. Of course the other web features are great too.

    Great unadvertised deal and pit one in one room and one in the other. Kind of difficult to set up but once you do it’s great. Just need to figure out how to wake up to my greeting instead of the alarm.

    Love our HUB, keep it in the kitchen - makes it easy to pull up recipes, ask the weather in the am, used to make calls using Duo which is great. Even used Netflix while cooking dinner!

    Helpful, but inconsistent software.

    The overall experience is good, but the software is inconsistent. Timers sometimes are displayed with a countdown clock, but sometimes are not. Voice commands are sometimes accepted, but sometimes not (voice not recognized). I hope that future updates correct these issues.

    Much better than Alexa

    I have had both Alexa and Google and the Google is by far much more superior. It’s very responsive to my voice and has a great sound system for music.

    I got this item for free with a Nest Hello, it’s a pretty cool device. We use it just as a monitor pretty much (for the front door) but you can play vids, music, and such. I wouldn’t buy this at full MSRP but if it’s on sale and you wanna add to your Google/Nest Home, I’d say go for it.

    Got this on sale and it's worth the sale price. Helps with recipes, keeping lists and playing music. It has some fun games on it too. It does seem significantly smaller the Max

    Bought this for an early Christmas gift and the recipient loves it. I was lucky it was on sale, so it was a win win - happy friend, saved money and got reward points from Best Buy.

    4 stars only because I had major issues linking my Disney plus account at first and then again after that when it unlinked itself. Super annoying but other than that, works well. I use it to cast my shows on and talk to Google and that's basically it, gets the job done.

    I got this for my parents, so use as a photo album. I set it up to show images of their grandchildren. They don't use it as a smart display at all, but since digital photo frames are not that different in price I figured something with a little more features would be better.

    We love having the Google home hub in our kitchen. It is great in the morning to get ready for the day and in the evening to help with cooking or see the news. The only complaint I have is the sound quality. It leaves much to be desired. I feel like they could have done a much better job with the speaker built in.

    So this is good if you use all of its features but for me I don’t have a door camera and probably not putting it to good use.... I was looking for a nightstand clock and this is overkill for that... But if you like google products then this will be right up your ally

    It was such a pain to use my phone when following a recipe and having to keep unlocking it when it would go into sleep mode. I use this almost nightly for my dinner recipes and the kids love watching YouTube on it.

    My husband and I love the google assistant hub. We have it in our kitchen so we both can use it. We set appointments in our calander and ask it questions. When we leave the house we have it play music for our pet.

    Love using it as a digital photo frame to relive old memories. Also works great as a central hub for smart home features and asking Google random questions without having to pull out my smartphone.
