Day 3 of Nest’s month-long specials is upon us and the Google Store is offering up a $60 discount when you bundle the original Nest Hub smart display with a Nest Wi-Fi and Point extender that features its own built-in Assistant speaker. The Nest Hub is a formidable, albeit slightly nerfed, smart display that features the Google Assistant and all of the home controls you’d expect from a #madebyGoogle device. The only real drawback of Google’s first smart display is the fact that Google emphasized privacy when they debuted the display and in doing so, omitted a camera which makes it useless for video chatting. In hindsight, I bet the creators wish they had opted for a simple privacy shade like practically every other smart display on the market.
Without taking away from the Nest Hub, the better part of this promo is the Nest Wi-Fi and Point extender. We have this exact setup in our office and I can attest that the #madebyGoogle wireless router is absolutely awesome. The router combined with a single Point gives us solid, seamless coverage across the entire building and the setup process is a breeze with the Google Home app. The Point extender has the added bonus of doubling as an Assistant smart speaker that isn’t the greatest speaker in the world but it’s good enough to listen to some quality audio while you’re getting some work done. Of course, you can use the Point to control all of your connected things around your home or office. The three devices retail for $358.99 but you can grab the bundle for $298.99 before the promo ends. Check it out at the Google Store below.
