Love my google max hub. Speaker is pretty darn good. Ask it to play my favorite songs. Can see my outdoor cameras quickly. Set daily alarms quickly. I have yet to experience all the things it can do. I even purchased the stand so I can til it to a better angle. Also bought a glass screen protector. Havent installed it yet but want to protect the screen.

Goods are renewals, not new
Advertised a new unopened product, then sent me an Amazon Renewed item.

    A great smart speaker for Google/Android users.
    As I am a big Google user, I have really enjoyed this device. It pulls up feeds from my Wyze cameras and Nest doorbell, controls my Hue lights and controls my Bluesound amplifier in a somewhat clunky manner (I think that might more be on Bluesound). Additionally, I can add items to my Google keep lists for the grocery and ironically, Walmart. My Google calendar and Google photos are also displayable on this smart speaker. I had considered an Android tablet for these same duties, but Google tablets have not been the best supported devices I have seen. This seemed like a more safe approach and I have been happy with the results. Not cheap, but reliable and effective. Recommended for Google users. For non-Android/Google folks, you could be just as happy with the Amazon Alexa speakers.

    This hub is a nice upgrade to its little brother. We had the original in our kitchen for recipes and music, but replaced it with the max. It's a very nice upgrade and easier to read from across the kitchen while cooking at the stove.

    Hey Google !!
    We don't ever use the camera feature as we feel it to be possibly intrusive and a security risk,but all the other features (sound,responsiveness anywhere in the house! music availablity/variety) are very well done

    Decent device. Has limits.
    This is a cool device. Shows you your compatible cameras, use Duo to video chat, control compatible smart devices has a few fun games per installed. The issue I have with it is you can't check your email. You use your Gmail accounts to log in and ad users but it can't check your Gmail. I may be missing something but that does disappoint me. Be nice to say "Show me my email" but that gets a "don't know how to do that" response.

    Excellent Larger-Sized Home Hub
    An excellent upgrade over the standard sized Google Nest Hub. Bear in mind that if you wish to use the camera as a Nest Camera, you will need to subscribe to Nest Aware to be able to keep video and events. If like me, you already have Nest cameras, it works out well. Also note, the camera does not have night vision, so it really isn't very functional at night unless you leave a light on for it. The sound quality is excellent and makes watching YouTube videos pleasant. But, remember, you can't watch Amazon Prime Video on it, so if you use that, you'll have to use another device.

    Great speaker
    Great news! I would've been annoyed if this was broken, but they actually took their time and packed my Nest hug, Max, correctly. The display is big enough where I can see things on the screen, and the speakers are nice and loud.

    Happy Mom :)
    Brought this as a gift for my mom on Black Friday. It ONLY went down $20 from original price, didn't really think that was a deal. She really wanted it though so I brought it. SHE LOVES IT!!! This will be her third upgrade from the Google home services. IT gets better and better with each upgrade!!

    Don't get yourself in the trap.
    This device is only good in one room and that is the kitchen! It does amazing with recipes and how to videos, but it's nothing different you can't do with an android phone or apples siri. I returned mine a week after having it for these reasons; The sound quality! If you're like me and like to have your music loud, but sound good, this isn't for you. once you get it up to a certain level it sounds very distorted and screech like. my second reason; The microphone. if you're watching or listening to something a little ways away from the device and try to talk to it like normal, good luck. i had to scream at it and that's if it understood me. often times i would say something and it would have something completely different than what i had said. Response time; my google home mini responded faster than the hub. Which you'd think it'd be the other way around given this one is $220 dollars more and it understood me better. Also, this isn't really a hint, but more of a heads up. This is not like an ipad or tablet, you have to control it only by your voice and search netflix and youtube with your voice ( i knew this before buying it, but i'm just letting you know ). The good things; it was quite easy to set up and use, it worked well with my home devices ( if it understood what i was saying ), and was good for music at low volumes. But for what i was using it for, it just wasn't worth the almost $250 price tag.

    Overall Great
    Overall great product, only downside was the fact that the camera does not have night vision. Speakers are good for its size and pictures/photo's look good.
