Google Home Hub Review - Is It Worth It ?
Google Home Hub Review - Is It Worth It ?
If you’re more interested in controlling your smart devices than you are watching movies or making video calls, the Google Home Hub makes a compelling claim to be the center of your smart home.
While the Google Home Hub isn’t missing many features compared to the Amazon Echo Show, the ones it’s missing are relatively important: a screen that's on the small side means most movie watching will need to occur in your living room, and - while it's great for photos - just doesn’t do justice to most video content.
What is certainly the product’s most divisive feature, however, is the Home Hub’s lack of a camera. We certainly appreciated Google’s guised concern for our privacy, some folks will be disappointed that they won’t be able to video chat with loved ones on the Hub.
Thankfully, this is all counterbalanced by some really important features like Home View and the Google Photos integration - plus, even if it isn’t the most magnificent screen we’ve ever laid our eyes on, it is a fine substitute when you’re standing in front of it cooking dinner.
For the audiences listed above, and many more we’ve yet to think of, the Google Home Hub is a surprisingly good value: it’s a smart speaker with a functional touchscreen and places the smarts to run your entire home at the tips of your fingers.
Yes the Echo Show has its advantages (particularly in the audiovisual department) but, for the vast majority of folks just starting to build out their smart home, the Home Hub is what we’d recommend instead.
