I think they are trying to to phase this out and replace it with a Pixel Tablet + dock. The driving idea is you might as well put that tablet that's sitting under your sofa to work.
I bought one of these at $49 for black Friday and it's the best alarm clock I've ever owned. I'm near-sighted and the numbers are big and bright enough to read when I wake up in the middle of the night. It has home hub functional but too slow to use it as a main hub, but as a secondary or especially as an alarm clock this is a great price.
Wow, seems like a solid deal. Bought just the Hub earlier this year for $50ish. Good digital clock to have on my desk in my room and I stream local sports radio stations through Audacy. And my household is pretty much all Home enabled so it's nice to have control over that, either by voice or by using the smart home menu on the Hub and just manually turning things on and off.
Steal at $39.
I will say that some people warned me about frequent restarts. I have noticed that the Hub will restart around 1-3 AM multiple times a week. No noise is made and it doesn't seem to be an abrupt restart like something crashed. It just shows a shutdown animation, which I'll catch from the side of my eye and it'll restart within 20 seconds and everything will be fine.
Some people use the Hub to play white noise and fall asleep and they'd be interrupted by the restart almost-nightly. So I can't speak to that but it does restart a few times a week but I only notice it post-midnight and before waking up in the morning.

At this price this thing is a steal. One of the features I never see mentioned is that it basically functions like a Chromecast. This is functioning as a kitchen tv in my house. We stream via our phones using the Xfinity stream app. Been pondering the hub max to get the bigger screen.
I agree. I switched to this Google hub from cheap Echo dots a few months ago. I just put the hub in the junk drawer today, and went back to the Dots. The hub was incredibly slow to respond and glitches out constantly. I tried everything to get it working, from resetting it multiple times, trying different smart bulbs, to changing router settings. The Google Home ecosystem is a mess. I have a few Google Home minis at work, as well, and they constantly need to be rebooted to get working after they bug out. We have to reboot them at least every other day.

This is pretty much the exact opposite situation I had. Had Alexa stuff for 2-3, got tired of the terrible recognition, slowness, and other random crap. Replaced it all with Google hubs and minis. It's not perfect but it's been a far smoother and more enjoyable experience. And that's nothing to say about all the Amazon ads and crap on Alexa.
