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 second gen.
The device works well. It's helpful. I would only suggest adding a larger screen option that doesn't include a camera. I would like a larger screen for my guest bedroom, but I would rather not have a camera attached to it for privacy concerns. Otherwise, works as advertised.

Nest Hub II
I upgraded this Nest Hub from the previous version. I wanted to access the sleep app but it's still being developed and at a price. Otherwise, it is just like the last version.

Just fine
I already had a google home mini and i was expecting many more functions with this product.I think if you only need a display this is the one for you but if not, a google home mini will be cheaper and a great product with amazing sound.

Awesome little screen
Installed this one on my daughter's room and she loves it. Helps with alarm clock, to send us messages, to set music for her to sleep. A great addition to my smart home!

Best smart display for best price
Received my display a couple of weeks ago, and I must say, I've loved it every since. Easy to use, friendly voice, and fun for the kids.

Not impressed
No camera! Yes, they added a sleep detector, but they didn't have to rid the camera.

Great smart display
I am used to have google home all over the house. My family and I use Google assistant for everything. Having a display improves our experience tremendously. We are happy with our choice. From the sleeping sensor to being a electronic photo frame .. I highly recommend it.

Sluggish UI
The device itself is nice other than the fact that device is very slow and commands and screen is very laggy

Hi tcho95, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience with the performance of your Nest Hub (2nd gen) is not ideal.
We suggest checking the steps below that might improve your experience:

- Performing a factory data reset on your Nest Hub (2nd gen) may help you improve it's streaming quality. Here's the step by step guide: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7073477
