Google Nest Hub 2nd Gen8/10Sure, if you want a new smart display. At $99, the 2021 Nest Hub has a much lower MSRP than the old version, but that device hasn't sold for full price in ages. In reality, the new Hub might be a little more expensive at launch...

Sleep tracking is convenient, Processor bump makes UI more responsive, Slightly better speakers and mics
Looks the exact same as the first-gen Nest Hub, If you don't care about sleep tracking, not much has changed, Not the sharpest display

Easy to set up and use, Clear Audio and crisp video display – way better than a Google Nest Mini, Slide show or time display, Sound is adequate for the purpose, Sync to Spotify, Netflix, YouTube and more
No camera (may be a blessing), Don't have to use Sleep monitor (good thing)
Thanks to Rohde & Schwarz, I now have a Google Nest Hub on my bedside table. It's not a device I would ordinarily buy for myself given my concern about security and privacy, but it is interesting to give it a whirl to see how I like it.The process of sett...

Excellent digital photo frame, Flexible alarm features, Good sound quality for the bedside table
