Google Nest Hub 2nd Gen (2021): Unboxing and Setup
Ғылым және технология
Find the Nest Hub display on Amazon: amzn.to/3q7jd4p
(I sped up some setup parts as it was very slow to setup and update.)
Essentially £90 for added sleep tracking. If you have no interest in that there is very little point in upgrading from the first generation. If you don't own a Nest Hub already then it's a worthwhile investment as a digital photo frame, home control unit, alarm clock and Netflix player.
Very sluggish though - Hoping that's improved with firmware.
EDIT: Did not realise Sleep Sensing was only in a free preview! support.google.com/googlenest...
Didn't see anything about it only being free for the rest of 2021 when I bought it. To be honest I doubt I will look at that part of it after a few months anyway but still a shame it's not free forever.

Check Motion Sense is enabled: support.google.com/googlenest/answer/10388741?hl=en It can be a bit fiddly to use. I would recommend playing music and then trying various waves to skip track. I find around 30cm away from the device seems to work best although to be honest I rarely use the Motion Sense part of it.
Has Google resolve Gen1 LCD screen burn-in issue on Gen2? Thx

Haven't noticed anything yet.
I am thinking of getting a Google Nest Hub Gen 2. But I don't know if to get one right now because of some laggy UI update thing going on with them. Is everyone having this problem? If so, I hope google can fix the problem at some point!

The UI has always been a bit laggy for me. It's underpowered but does the job. Just slowly.
I dont understand why I can not use quick gesture (it dont work) and calibrate Sleep Sensing (always ask to retry when I do calibrate)

Motion sense doesn't come with model H1A
You have to sign into your account on your nest hub. But what if everyone in the house want to use and control lights , thermostat and view door bell camera alerts? How do you manage the sign ID if you are sharing the nest hub?

Home control features can be used by anyone who can touch the device. Private information like calendar events, etc, can only be seen by the person who added the Google account to the device. You can add more than one Google account to the device. It uses Voice Match to make sure you are the account holder. Before you can see anything private it asks you to speak the command to make sure you have an account on the device.
