Gain control of your life, and your home, with Google Home Hub! This is a sharp-looking and quick-thinking device, and very reasonably priced in comparison to similar controllers.
Voice Match is the perfect way to stay on top of those everyday tasks, allowing you to reference things like calendars, reminders and so much more on the home screen. You can watch the news, make a shopping list, and place Duo voice calls to friends and family who have the Google Duo app installed.
Smart lights, cameras, TVs, appliances, and much more, can be voice-controlled from a single dashboard.
The Google Home Hub sure knows its stuff. Just ask it! Your questions are answered with visual and immersive responses. Queries about anything from recipes, weather, local business information are answered in a flash, and you can even access how-to videos from YouTube with a spoken command.
The Google Home Hub will play any form of music you're in the mood for. Once again, just use your voice to play your favourite songs, albums, artists, and music videos from YouTube Music. Spotify and leading radio stations can also be listened to.
Google Photos integration is a major selling point in this Home Hub. Use your voice to show any picture that you’ve ever taken in Google Photos, and it will respond. For example, just say: "Hey Google, show me my photos from Hawaii" and aloha...there they are!
Manufacturer: Google
There's little question that some sort of voice response device that controls a home tech ecosystem is inevitable. Google Home is the best of them today: The best physical design, the best database behind it, the most "natural" because it can retain the context of the last couple of exchanges.
Between the Google Home and Amazon Echo, the race to get a smart assistant into your home is blazing hot. Across different form factors and price points, the idea is to get you onboard the Alexa or Google Assistant ecosystem.
The future is coming, and fast. There was a time when we would imagine having a robot or an assistant that would do what we ask them to. These were things that existed only in sci-fi movies. But present technology has brought JARVIS from Iron Man to life… Well, almost.

Attractive design; "conversational" search; backed by Google's immense database
Large power brick; conversational search is still limited

The Google Home Hub represents the company’s first first-party smart display and the soft, cute aesthetic clearly gives it away as a Google Home dev...
Pleasing aesthetic which blends high-tech and home décor well; Ambient Display EQ is well-tuned and effective; Speaker gets decently loud and is well-composed throughout higher volumes; Intuitive UI for smart device and Chromecast speaker control;
No camera for video calling; UI needs expansion in smart device control and app integrations; Smaller size and lack of water resistance detract from the Hub’s room versatility;
When push comes to shove, like any of these home assistants, the Google Home Hub is a 'nice to have'. The home control options are possibly the most exciting aspect of this device. A dedicated tablet is often the best way to control your gadgets and gizmos and knowing that this sat ready and plugged...
Great display; stellar performance; no camera.
It's a bit small; again; There's no camera.
As a digital photo frame and smart home controller, the Google Nest Hub is an affordable device with enough features to keep you happy. It has a nice display, decent speakers, and you can control most features just with your voice.
Simple setup; Easy to use; No learning curve if you’re already used to using “Hey Google”
Make all the Google Assistant commands work with GSuite accounts
Google started talking about Assistant-powered smart displays earlier this year, but it let Lenovo and JBL roll out the first products. Google unveiled its Assistant display alongside the new Pixel phones, and it's not just the same guts in a new shell.
Display While lower resolution, the display has excellent viewing angles, brightness, and a light sensor that adjusts the color throughout the day; Form factor The Nest Hub is compact and easy to fit in your space.
Speaker The speaker is good enough for spoken words but not for music; Voice control There's no button to start voice commands—you have to use the hotword every time; Camera There's no camera, so video chat is out of the question.
Shortly after announcing the Home Hub , a Google exec told me the timing was simply about “getting the product right.” Still, it’s curious launching your own entry in the space more than half a year after a trio of hardware partners debuted their own.
Google already has a great line of Google Home devices, with the original Home, the Mini, and the Max. The one device with Google Assistant that was missed is one with a display to rival Amazon and their Echo Show device.
