Good price for good new product
We already have Nest cameras so didn’t need the eye cameras, but the price for the hub was best around. I like other Wyze products and was comfortable dealing with the company.

Nest Hub Family
This helps when I can’t get to turn on my Central Air and Heat, help my son fall asleep and wake up as well. Helps our family so very much that I would gift this to family.

Almost good
So close to being good. A few things, display is laggy, makes it feel cheap. Need an option for display to turn off after inquiry or not turn on at all. Recipe ingredients don’t display properly in full. Just needs a smoother interface, and more preference settings. Maybe need a same sized, more premium version if these things can’t be done for the price.

Response from Staples :
Hi Nodramallama, we appreciate your feedback and recommendations with Nest Hub (2nd Gen). We’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing a slow or laggy display, and it doesn’t meet your needs. We could be looking at a possible connectivity issue that affects the overall performance of your Nest Hub including a laggy display, and it’s important to make sure that this is not caused by a spotty or weak Wi-Fi signal. We suggest checking your Wi-Fi network for a strong and reliable connection. 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. You can also try doing a factory reset to boost its performance. For more information on how to reset your Nest Hub, just follow the steps on this guide: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7073477 If you need further assistance, you can always contact our support team. We’d be happy to help and improve your experience here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Pretty good. Hoping for a feature upgrade though!
The speaker has a really decent sound. I use it while working, cooking and cleaning, to listen to music. I love the photo slideshow feature. I have the hub on my work desk and I have a slideshow of photos of my Dad who passed away last year. <3My only complaint at the moment, is that synching earbuds is a bit tricky.

Hi there, thanks for posting a review and for sharing some details of your issue with the Nest Hub. We’re sorry to learn that you’re having an issue with the performance of your Nest display. We could be looking at connectivity issues that are sometimes related to different factors like Wi-Fi network congestion, distance of the device from the router, wireless interference with other Wi-Fi hotspots or devices nearby and outdated router firmware. If you’re willing, we suggest trying the steps below that might help: - Be sure you use the provided power supply of your Nest Hub and make sure it is connected directly to a wall outlet. - Try moving your Nest Hub near your router - Unplug your Router and Nest Hub from electrical wall outlets for 60 seconds, then test if the same issue occurs. - Check for possible congestion in your network. Removing some of your connected devices may free up some bandwidth space. - Make sure that the phone or tablet and Google Home app are all up to date. - Turn off other connected devices to your Wi-Fi network to avoid congestion. - If you have a dual-band router, try setting up your Nest Hub on either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz bands and see which band is more reliable. As a last resort, perform a factory data reset on your Nest Hub. See the step by step guide here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7073477 If the issue persists after checking the steps above, we suggest visiting us anytime in the following link and we’d be happy to help with further isolation and troubleshooting: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Not crazy about it
I’m not exactly loving the google hub. I had a google mini in my kitchen and I thought the hub would be nice to watch my YouTube subscriptions on while I cook. Well, it doesn’t display your recent subscription downloads so I have to still get on my phone and cast the video I want to watch on the hub screen.
