I was definitely a huge fan of the Google Home Hub Nest Hub when it came out last year. The lack of a camera and the sweet price point worked in Google’s favor. So for I/O this year, they dropped the bigger version of it w/ the Nest Hub Max. The design language remains the same w/ the fabric-lined design on the rear and plastic build on the front w/ privacy switch + volume controls on the rear.
So not only does it offer a bigger screen & better sound but offers a camera as well. But not just a standard one but a full-fledged Nest Camera built into it. You a lot more w/ it than just view your security camera footage. You can use it as an indoor camera that tracks motion and sound as well as being able to zoom in on the subject. We’ve ready to tell you why this is my favorite new smart display.
Google’s Nest Hub Max vastly improves on the last year’s model. We already told you all the ways it does so. But they did a good job in the execution of it all as well. The addition of the camera brings Face Match to the mix along w/a complete indoor Nest Cam w/ Nest Aware service, the ability to pause media by waving your hand in front of it and more gestures to come, and more.
Outside of the bigger screen, speakers, and added camera, you can do everything the Nest Hub can do. You still can access the vast abilities of Google Assistant, control all of your smart home products via Home View UI, view your photos via Live Albums, support multiple account profiles, and unfortunately still don’t support Netflix though.
