I can't thank you enough for muting the wake word... I absolutely HATE it when youtubers don't do this. I've got my home mini and echot dot in the same room with my home theater so many many thanks!
@@darknessthehedgehog3 not sure if you actually threw it away or not but if you did you could have put it in a different part of the house for a different purpose.
@@HyetalL The only downside is that TH-cam premium crap which I refuse to get and having to bring my hub downstairs and back upstairs into my room so I can listen to TH-cam music for free
Thanks for the vid. Just got one and am looking forward to learning more about it. This helps. So much better than my phone or tablet. No battery to worry about and a much better speaker.
Just wanted to let you know that I appreciate not having to dive to turn off the mic or yell to "cancel" while watching your video. On top of the good content, muting out the wake command made me subscribe immediately.
Yeah, that wasn't lost on me, I want an animation of the 1984 screen to play on my TV when it's not in use, including the mumbling voice reading the latest news.
Thanks for muting when you addressed the Assistant in previous videos and I just found your videos this morning because I was sick of being greeted by my email address. I subbed. Your videos are easy and fun to follow along with.
I really love the Google Home Hub. This review is the only in depth one on TH-cam. I usually only watch your smart home videos, since I find those most useful to me. I really like how on the Google Home Hub, if you have TH-cam TV, you can watch TV straight from the display. Also, I like how it displays your timers. I always hate when a timer goes off on my Google Home, I always have to say, "Hey Google, stop.". But you can just tap snooze timer on the Hub. Thanks for posting this video, can't wait to see more Smart Home videos!
Thank you for this great video.. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to upgrade any of my home devises to a hub but thanks to this video I ordered one to replace my home mini in my kitchen.
@@aniketgarg8852 OMG, you can change the brightness, no way... Wow Google, you're on to something big with that whole screen brightness adjustment setting thing, that's so smart, in fact i'm going to go and buy one of these just to see how bright it can go... FFS!
Wow what a great video. I already had been a subscriber so when I saw this video was posted, I got up, walked across the room and flipped the mute switch on the 10" Lenovo Smart Display which is right next to my bed thinking that this 17+ minute video would be filled with "Ok Google." You went through the effort of muting yourself as anyone should! I wish I could subscribe again just for that! Big thumbs up 👍
Hi Brett, I am back again! I went ahead and bought myself the Home Mini after watching your video, your videos are like my go-to now whenever I need guidance or information on Google devices so yup ... I am seriously considering the Hub now! 7:20 WAIT ... how does the Hub knows that they are someone YOU KNOW?? Could be strangers. 7:40 And OH MY GOD that is so meannnnn LOL! Awwwwww. What if 7:30 Google says "Hi there, Brett says "Go away" ... have a nice day!" Are those girls your daughters? There're pretty good actors!
Thanks for the informative video! I only have one major complaint with Google devices, and that's the volume control. You can't separate out the voice volume and the music volume. If you turn the volume up to listen to music, then the next time GA speaks you end up with this booming voice!
Hello Brett. Thanks for the video. I didn't not fully understand what you said about Chromecast. Is the built in chromecast able to both send and receive cast video? Thanks.
Just what everybody needs. A huge company in your home 24/7 monitoring everything you do. Your eating habits, what time you watch TV, showering. B.S. haven't they got into your lives enough.
I love the Google Home Hub, the size and how it looks, but I ended up purchasing the Lenovo Smart Display (8 inch model) because it's on sale for $99 (at a specific store). My kids wanted the video chat capability, and for that price it was too good to pass up.
There is no hub built into the Lenovo. Each smart device will need to correct directly to WiFi or have it's own hub. Sadly, the Ring cameras are not supported.
Hi! I use google chrome calendar to set up my appointment and reminders Can google hub read those reminder out loud and notify in advance according to my notification time settings. ? thanks
Thank you so much I just set up one Google home hub in for Google home minis along with my Philips Hue Lights and I was just so confused as to how to use everything after a few minutes of messing with it it turned out pretty easy but in the very beginning you think it's complicated as hell to sync everything LOL
Do all Google assistant ready light bulbs have all the control explained at 6:47. So can you control any smart bulb with all those controls like color and brightness
No reviewer has shown this, so here you go. Let's say you ask Google to show you your TH-cam recommendations, when they appear on the screen instead of having to swipe them you can simply say scroll right or scroll left. Also when you get to the point where let's say there are two options you can simply say play the first one or play the second one. No need to get up and swipe the screen while in TH-cam. Your welcome.
I really appreciate the way you mute out the Google command. Most people leave it in their videos which is annoying, as you know, because it always sets off my home mini.
THIS WAS SO SPOT ON AND PERFECT. I have 5 mini's 1 in each room and my hub in my living room. use them as surround sound when im cleaning lol cant wait for the google hub max xl
Google should have made it with a camera that either goes inside the unit when not in use or has something to cover it up. I truly think they missed out on that. Besides that it should be able to connect to any other Bluetooth speaker. But I guess they have to leave room for improvement for down the road
You forgot to mention the most important feature of the hub. When you have it installed on the nightstand you can have it play the sound of a gentle surf, rain or the sound forest critters make in order to drown out that annoying high pitched whine that mosquitos make when they dive bomb your head.
Can it listen to What makes Us Human Jeremy Vine on BBC Radio 2 sounds? I cannot get this pod casts by any means. It was suggested I download the podcasts to my phone and take it from there. please advise if you can
Sending the kids away and trying to explain to your parents why they can't see you.. LMAO. Fantastic. But also extremely helpful. Wasn't sure if I wanted to replace my Home Mini with the Nest Mini or the Hub. Glad I went with the Hub!
Hello there Brett. I was wondering if you could do a video on the accessibility features found within the google home hub. That would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for your time. :-)
I think this is what my son has for me as a late xmas present. I don't know how useful it will be for me, but I will have some fun with it I'm sure. I'm still trying to adjust to my smart phone and all the things i can do with that, lol. ( I'm a boomer, so that's why) I have subscribed and saved this video for future use, so thank you Brett.
Installed mine in the bedroom yesterday. Love the clock dims enough not to disturb sleep. Alarm is easy to set; there is a 'snooze' function. Also like that I can control my Nest thermostat AND turn down the living room Sonos sound system. It will show the status of my Yale X Nest door lock, which doesn't work well to lock remotely. At least I can check from bed to see if it's locked. Down side: White noise is limited to a 1 hour play, I want it all night long. Doesn't access my Mac's extensive music library (which my Sonos system DOES access.) Accesses free music services (Sonos requires paid subscriptions.) I don't want to maintain 2 separate cloud accounts; I'm already subscribing to iCloud as I've got several Apple devices. I don't want to move to Google at this time. Would I buy this again? Yes, as it does almost all that I wanted. Definitely worth $79, which was the going price. My local WalMart had it for the original $129, but when I showed the clerk their website price, they made the adjustment. It pays to check!
Update three months later: I gave feedback that the ambient white noise should play until I tell it to stop, and miraculously it did just that, the very next light. Cool or scary, you decide. Added three lights to my living room (first floor, needed a Google puck for convenience as my DH would hate using the phone app.) Those work fine. However, when I tried to add a smart light (from the same package that works flawlessly in the living room) the Google Home Mini doesn't seem to know how to find/operate the bedroom smart light. When I bring the bedroom lamp to the living room, the puck there DOES operate it, although it SAYS it doesn't know how. I might rename the lamp to 'Living Room Lamp' instead of 'Bedroom Lamp' and see if the bedroom Home Mini sees it. The Home Mini DOES control the living room lights flawlessly. Does it need a puck in every room? This isn't clear. It's going to nickel and dime me if that's the case.
Hi, I jus wanna ask how I can connect chromecast, which is connected to my smartTV, to this Googlehome nest hub. It always says "could not communicate with Chromecast" on the google home app. Hope u can help
Honest question: Could a tablet basically do the same thing and more?? I was waiting to buy this for the longest time but I honestly rather spend an extra $100-200 and get a actually tablet that could do much more.
Great question and something I need to cover more in depth. Yes a tablet can do all this and more. The biggest thing a tablet lacks is being always available, meaning your tablet will mostly need to be charged, is stored in a case somewhere or just doesn't hear your Ok Google to activate. Some of the Google Assistant responses may show up different but it should be a similar experience.
I actually LIKE that this is a limited device. I don't want to be tempted to access social media, email, work, or surf the web when I'm in bed. I have two tablets and an iPhone, and more TV's than two human beings need. It's not an all-or-nothing proposition. It's right-sizing.
Big up to your old man for letting you hassle him for the purposes of the video; assuming you let him know he was going to be see by 35,000 people or so on you tube.
Quick question. I'm thinking about installing google home in my parrents summer house, mainly so they can control lights and temperatures when they are not there and I'm just woundering if it can - and how easy it would - be turned this into a dashboard of sorts? Like something to put just inside the main door that they can see time on, controll all the lights easily (for example having all rooms show up and/or hue lighting profiles), see inside and outside temperatures and such, all on one main screen. It wouldn't really be used for calls, streaming or even really play music, just a first display when they enter the home to check on and control the house. Thanks
Nothing I do - (and I have tried EVERYTHING, for weeks, recommended on the internet, including options for changing router settings, hard resets, exploring all options in app) - causes info to be sent to my iPhone. I say send to my phone etc. Google says sent to notifications. Nothing in notifications. This was from mini. I have just set up Nest Hub - same. Is there something really obvious I am missing? Am I looking in the wrong place on phone? Driving me crazy!! Seems like it can’t see the phone. Phone is new SE2020. Some setting on phone? Notifications turned on everywhere.
Tech With Brett does it really effect your energy bill? And what is the most useful features? Thinking about getting it for black Friday it's going to be $85 with all the discounts
@@TechWithBrett Hahaha is not a scolding! xD, is that I like your videos so much that I check daily if you have uploaded some and maybe I have not received the notification. keep it up!
Great review and the Nest Hub seems pretty awesome, but, unfortunately, I’ve seen many people complaining about the Nest Hub having multiple playback instability issues, music stopping randomly, video buffering, Spotify cutting out, and people that tried all the troubleshooting steps without finding any resolution, and it seems a bit unreliable for many people, according to what I’ve seen in the Google Nest community forums. Is it really a problem with many Wi-Fi networks or a software glitch that can’t be fixed easily? How reliable are them given a decent Wi-Fi signal? I’ll be happy to have it in my bedroom, but if I find out that it will drive me nuts due to instability and malfunctioning, I would rather not to buy it, and, perhaps, go elsewhere
I really agree with this. I was debating getting this but I'm not sure. There's a deal at Best Buy that you get this free with Hello doorbell (that's the only benefit I can think off).
Can't thank you enough for muting "hey Google"... literally nobody else does this and it's much appreciated!!

The Google Home Hub is like a mini tablet that has chrome cast plugged into it

Great review and the Nest Hub seems pretty awesome, but, unfortunately, I’ve seen many people complaining about the Nest Hub having multiple playback instability issues, music stopping randomly, video buffering, Spotify cutting out, and people that tried all the troubleshooting steps without finding any resolution, and it seems a bit unreliable for many people, according to what I’ve seen in the Google Nest community forums. Is it really a problem with many Wi-Fi networks or a software glitch that can’t be fixed easily? How reliable are them given a decent Wi-Fi signal? I’ll be happy to have it in my bedroom, but if I find out that it will drive me nuts due to instability and malfunctioning, I would rather not to buy it, and, perhaps, go elsewhere
The inability to install apps, lack of camera and Internet browser cripples it's capabilities
I really agree with this. I was debating getting this but I'm not sure. There's a deal at Best Buy that you get this free with Hello doorbell (that's the only benefit I can think off).
I dont get why Netflix and a browser isnt supported.. I Mean.. A browser!? 🤔
Does it need resetting if you add the wrong network when setting it up.?
Mine is on its way
