Also, FWIW, I couldn't be happier to have made the switch. Got so sick of Alexa following up with useless suggestions after I asked her the weather and constantly trying to sell me things on the screen.
Adding items to a grocery list via voice
playing youtube videos while I do dishes/cook
asking simple questions (how many cups in a gallon, etc)
whats the weather outside?
doubling as a loudish bluetooth speaker
It does all these well, I dont know about the hub features.

And they don't have cameras like the Echo devices.
I had two of the Gen 1 units and after a few months both of them developed color banding on the screen. They were still usable, but the screens were a mess.
I have read others had this problem with the Gen 1s, but I never heard of anyone with this problem on the Gen 2.
Worth a try I guess at this price.

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.
The ones Google packs with their smart devices often have issues supplying enough power for the CPU and the display. The device just falls flat on its face and restarts without proper power for all the components.
I've even had several first gen supplies fail completely.
Thinking to buy this one
Bulb is useless ((( another app to ibstall to set up the bulb ?)))
