Not compatible with any of the prior generations - no smart speaker - can't tell if it has a microphone - I use my current nest points as mic locations for smart home commands , isn't clear that these will still support that function but appear not to.

You're right it probably does not, but I think the quality and the speed should be phenomenal on this one

Speed will be limited by the 1 Gbps ethernet ports.

Doesn't look to have 4x4 MIMO, so wondering if the range will be less than Nest Wifi AC2200?

4-pack at Costco for $450, bringing cost/unit to $112.50: https://www.costco.com/.product.1693615.html

All units are identical, so you should be able to split units across households. I'm going in on this with a friend....

there is only one route/base unit and 3 extender units. now sure how you can split this with a friend.. you would need to buy another base unit at $200 for your scenario to work. ultimately saving $50 on the 3rd extender unit.

You're thinking of the Nest Wifi kits. All of the new 6E units are the same.

I stand corrected! totally missed that. I just read it was another mesh set up. I get why the cost is what it is now.

Why on earth they will not make it compatible with last generation.

I was thinking of adding couple but now problem solved. Probably I will buy older router on sale sometime and save money

Because it's doing the mesh at 6ghz and the old ones only have 2.4 and 5

No backwards compatibility is very disappointing. Google loves killing their products off. Looking at my Nest Secure, Google WiFi, and many many apps throughout the years. What's the best alternative…Eero?
