for the price of the MAX you can buy the normal one + an even better speaker ( the only reasons left would be size and the camera and even the camera is debatable as there's other cams compatible with Nest hardware )

Great comparison, I have both. I got the first one for Christmas last year. And this one just appeared on my desk at my home one day. So some one still loves me. lol. I find that it does things better because of the camera . The security part is perfect, and video calling i like. The hand motion is my fav. new thing. turns off and on, and gives me reminders each morning of my days activities. Thanks for the review Josh.

I have a very specific question about the Nest Hub Max regarding watching content; If I'm watching a KZbin video (or any other type of content) and I pause it then leave the room (or just ignore it) for a long period of time, when I come back the the Hub, can I continue where I left off? Is my content still paused and ready to play? The thing that really infuriates me about my current assistant (Amazon Echo Show 8) is that no matter what your settings are, if you pause anything for more than 10 minutes, it returns to the home screen, and you have to go searching for the content you were previously watching. INFURIATING!

Especially my Large Music Library ?! Or Would a "Subscription" be required ? (which "would" be a deal breaker for me 😕 !).

Thank you Janelee and great question. I should have put that info in the video. A few inches away up to 3 feet away from the display seems to be the optimal range for the hand gesture feature. The facial recognition however, works much farther away. The device has quite a wide field of view, so if you can see the camera, it’ll likely recognize your face. Your KZbin playlists should also be available on here exactly as they are available on your existing Google Home speakers. As always, thanks for watching! 😁

Someone rings your smart doorbell, and that persons face pops up on the display. You can talk to them right there. Let’s say it’s a friend or neighbor, you can then ask the hub to unlock your front door and tell them to let themselves in has you dry off your hands. It’s a convenience thing obviously. Of course you can just go to the front door like you’ve been doing, but this gives you more convenience.
