Great device from google, I have it my kitchen for just about everything.. Bought my grown children one.

GOOGLE HAS INTEGRATED THE NEST HUB INTO MY HOME SEAMLESSLY , WITH ALL THE HELPFUL FEATURES , YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT. I AM OFTEN PLEASANTLY SURPRISED AT THE DETAIL OF EACH NEW UPGRADE AND THE CONCEPT OF EACH NEW TOOL. THE GOOGLE NEST HUB HAS BECOME A THOUGHTFUL SKILLED COMPANION.

It works. Its what I would call boring. It doesn't usually have a problem, and does everything I expected for a device of the price. What impressed me was features I didn't know about, such as the ability to use it as a mini monitor for casting your phone to it. I'm impressed enough with how it performs in my bedroom that I am considering purchasing a Nest Hub Max for my kitchen as well.

I usually don't buy the newest gadgets, i wait awhile for the price to drop. The Google home was the exception. As soon as it came out i bought my first one. It was just the speaker, then came the Google Assistant display and the Mini speakers. I now have them in every room. This review is for the Display. I have one in the kitchen and one in the bedroom. I love them. It is a bit of a learning curve. But to get the most of yours i recommend at the very least going to You Tube and watching the latest help video. No technology is perfect but thru updates it gets better. It sometimes doesn't understand me but i do talk to fast at times. It saves me time by adding to my shopping list, making calendar events and sets reminders, i even use it for phone calls. My biggest complaint is it doesn't just answer my questions, it wants to teach me the answer or how to come up with the answer myself. This is annoying when i just need the answer quicky. Otherwise i do love my Google Assistant.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
