Excellent I use it in conjunction With my nest cam and it's great for security as I can see what and who is at my front door clarity is fantastic and the bonus is I can use it for pretty much anything from finding out what the weather is going to be for the day

Ive had the google home nest hub for over a year and love it so we went for its newer bigger brother Camera quality on this was excellent and loved the way it followed you around when video calling a friend. The sound quality is better than its predecessor as is the screen

Not just bigger than the original Google Nest Hub, the new Google Nest Hub Max is a better product all round. The larger display makes it easier to see what’s going on, although it would be nice if there were more options for playing video. Sound has been improved and the Nest Hub Max is now a decent music player in its own right. With the camera, you can now make video calls and you get Face Match for personalised results. You can also turn the Hub Max into a full security camera. The requirement for a Google Account (not G Suite) is a little annoying but if you’re looking for the best Google Assistant-powered smart display, this is the one.

Face Match works brilliantly; Can act as a security camera; Excellent sound quality;

Few video playback options; Nest integration doesn't work with G Suite accounts;

Zigbee smart home hub onboard; Large, vibrant, higher-resolution display; Vastly improved user interface; Impressive audio quality; Excels as a digital photo frame; Built-in Nest camera; Google Assistant is one of the smartest assistants we’ve tried;

No Z-Wave support; Not the best smart speaker for music; No physical camera shutter; No analog audio output; Google Assistant's smart home compatibility still lags Alexa (though it's catching up fast);

On the surface, there isn’t much to say about the Nest Hub Max. Like it’s smaller sibling , the Max made its way to Canada after launching in the U.S. — although it didn’t wait quite as long as the Nest Hub.

Larger screen; Better sound; interesting face recognition tech

Not the cheapest smart display; No physical camera shutter; The volume button placement is annoying

It might only be available in two colours but Google has brought the two things we asked for to the Nest Hub Max - a larger screen and a camera.

Easy to set up a lot of Great Features Im finding new ways to use it every day very happy

First came the Google Home speakers, then we got Home speakers with screens, and now we've got the Google Nest Hub Max – the ultimate Google-powered smart speaker for 2019. We've been testing one of the devices out for the past few weeks to see if it deserves a place in your home.

Sound quality is good enough for day-long music listening; Smart small-footprint design; Screen adjusts to ambient light brilliantly; Responsive voice recognition;

Nest cam support needs some work; Screen could be sharper; No Netflix support (yet);
