Amazing!

I love it. I have two, one for my kitchen, where it helps me with recipes when cooking and I play music while doing so. I have a second one in my bedroom. I love the clock, knowing the weather, lots of things. I don't mind cleaning now because I do it while listening to music. Great buy!!!

Great, but could still be improved

As a smart home control device and media hub, it's pretty awesome. It does everything I was looking for EXCEPT the ability to watch cameras attached to your smart home kinda blows. It basically casts the feed to the screen as it would to a chromecast, and it doesn't work well AT ALL. Sometimes it just says feed not available, but I know that it is because I can pull it up on my phone. Usually if it does pull it up, it will only stay for 5 to 10 minutes and then you have to request the feed again. I will say that it works well with nest cameras, as one would hope.

Great smart home starter

If you already have Google or nest devices in your home, the nest hub is a great compliment. Especially if you already use the Google assistant, everything is almost seamless. When you move the device from one room to another you have to hard reset it and set it up all over again as if it's new.

Love it but...

I love the hub, but for some reason it does not respect the fact that I have YouTube Premium and still play ads when playing music on YouTube music... Other than that it's great having a display that can provide visual feedback v. the standard google home.

Bedroom Display

The Nest Hub is a great picture frame style device for small spaces like bedrooms or studies. Audio quality is ok, Hub Max is great, and if you are looking primarily for a speaker would suggest the Max or the Next Audio. Otherwise this is a nice expansion piece for my nightstand without having the camera of the Max.

Really wanted to like this, but....

I really wanted to like the Google Nest Hub. When I first set it up, it worked perfectly. It controlled my lights, my switches and my thermostat by voice. About two weeks later, after a power failure, Google Nest Hub would no longer link with my thermostat, switches or lights even though they continued to work perfectly within their individual apps. I spoke to both manufacturers who indicated that it must be a problem with the Google Nest Hub since their devices and apps worked perfectly. A call to Google support resulted that they could not help me with 3rd party products even getting a 3rd party app to link. So I am stuck between a rock and a hard place and am disappointed that I can no longer control my devices with the Google Nest Hub. Other than that, the Google Nest Hub works well with displaying photos, playing music, getting information and similar task.

Not very good

I really only use it for my lights, timers, and shopping list and it can't even do any of those painlessly. It's constantly mishearing me or telling me that it doesn't recognize my voice. Very annoying, I am considering just switching to something else

Didn't work, had to return

Good looking and good idea but didn't work for me. I'm on Spectrum with 200meg plan. Only got 100 through the Nest after multiple setup attempts. Spectrum's default free wifi router gave me over 200 as does the Orbi mesh system I ended up with. This slow throughput is noted in other places online but I assume doesn't affect all users.

Not easy

I don't know if it's the nest hub or the home app. Anytime I ask it to do something it executes the action both on my phone and the hub. If I want music playing now I have it playing on both devices, and not in sync. Speaker groups are hard to use and clunky. Executing commands to move the sound to a speaker group often ends in an error. It's hard to connect to the device and play music directly from your phone. It gets easily confused if you send it too many actions in a row. You never know what command will win. Connecting it with Bluetooth speakers is very hard and can't be included in speaker groups.Support is worthless. They'll ask you to do a factory reset and then after it still not working they'll decide the functionality isn't supported.So many times it just stops playing music. With no idea as to why or what happened. If it lost internet connectivity you should tell me that.so many people saying Alexa is better. I wish I would have went that route.
