New sustainable build, Four color options, including the new Mist color, The audio has been improved, Setup was very easy, Sleep sensing gives what feels like useful insight, The motion sense works WAY better here than on Pixel 4
Touch sensitivity on the screen could use some work
The resolution isn't the highest, but this screen gets dim enough for use in a bedroom, and Ambient EQ makes it blend in very well, The new Hub is faster, exhibiting fewer slowdowns in the UI than the OG device, It tracks my sleep at least as well as any
Google has yet to provide me with any suggestions beyond common sense—it needs to do more before Google can charge for it. Medium and large pets will interfere with your tracking if they get on your bed, too, The rear-facing speaker is fine for chatting w
Google Nest Hub 2nd Gen8/10Sure, if you want a new smart display. At $99, the 2021 Nest Hub has a much lower MSRP than the old version, but that device hasn't sold for full price in ages. In reality, the new Hub might be a little more expensive at launch...

Affordable smart display packs useful Google Assistant, No-contact Sleep Sensing is tracking without the wearable, Bass improvements make for better music, Promise of better smart home integration with Thread in future
Sleep Sensing results require some interpretation, No charging port for a phone on your nightstand, Sleep Sense will eventually require a subscription
Honestly, the trickiest part of reviewing the new Nest Hub has been deciding where to put it. For Sleep Sensing, it obviously needs to be next to the bed; the problem there is that I don't really need a full-functioned smart display on my nightstand. I ca...
Sleep tracking is convenient, Processor bump makes UI more responsive, Slightly better speakers and mics
Looks the exact same as the first-gen Nest Hub, If you don't care about sleep tracking, not much has changed, Not the sharpest display
"If you own the first-gen Nest Hub, the 2nd-gen version of the smart display likely doesn't offer enough of an upgrade to warrant a purchase -- unless you're really interested in seamless sleep tracking"...
Easy to set up and use, Clear Audio and crisp video display – way better than a Google Nest Mini, Slide show or time display, Sound is adequate for the purpose, Sync to Spotify, Netflix, YouTube and more
No camera (may be a blessing), Don't have to use Sleep monitor (good thing)
Thanks to Rohde & Schwarz, I now have a Google Nest Hub on my bedside table. It's not a device I would ordinarily buy for myself given my concern about security and privacy, but it is interesting to give it a whirl to see how I like it.The process of sett...

Excellent digital photo frame, Flexible alarm features, Good sound quality for the bedside table
A little big for some bedside tables, Limited sleep tracking data
Whether you're looking for a bedside alarm clock or a smart screen to place elsewhere in your home, the 2nd-generation Google Nest Hub smart screen is a winner. But its sleep tracking features are a little light...

Neerav thinks that for $149 the Nest Hub Gen 2 is excellent value for money and currently sets the standard for a small smart display with a quite capable speaker. Amazon the ball is in your court to beat it with a new superior device.The Nest Hub Gen 2 i...

Audio quality is good not great, Partner's coughing and/or snoring could end up on your report
The Google Nest Hub is an excellent first smart display for customers who have never invested in a smart product and a handy addition for customers who already have a Google speaker. Its versatility will certainly impress first time users especially with...
