Does the Hub have a better speaker than the full size home?

The smaller Hub? No. From my experience it's about the same as the 1st gen mini.

Having heard most of them, and read others' opinions on them, sound quality seems to range something like

Max>>>Hub Max/Regular Home>>Nest Mini>>Nest Hub/Home Mini

I'd buy the hub from the UK Google site, it's about 15 quid more expensive but worth it to have the 6" display. It's handy for watching YouTube vids.

Was struggling to get into Google UK, found it in b&q (UK only, checked with local stores, don't stock it) for 59stg, ordered using PayPal and address pal.

The Google Store page will automatically sense Ireland so you need to go down to the bottom of your landing page and there's an Irish flag alert box, click this and select UK and you'll be grand thereafter

When buying even with revolut it asks for postcodes, English phone numbers. How did ye get around this?

Mine was parcel motel as well. Wonder are they refusing to deliver to there now

Sheep Shagger · 30-11-2019 05:03PM

Hi lads, same happened to me when it came out originally, Google UK just didnt like Irish billing addresses.

If it continues to happen, I used John Lewis last time who have it too at the same price, used Parcel Wizard I think for delivery- worked fine as long as you shop on their UK site.

Just ordered thanks a lot. So straight forward.

Sheep Shagger · 30-11-2019 06:21PM

Am in Glasgow for the Leinster game, walked past an Argos and they have the hub max for £189 and in stock.

Have 2 normal hubs already but don't know anyone with a max so the video thing is pretty pointless (so far?), think that's the only way you can make a video call? I'm trying to work put if/how you can call someone on say an android phone, is that possible...I'm not understanding the link below.

Ready to pull the trigger even though I dont really need another but....

Ordered a home hub from the UK Google store to parcel motel last week using Revolut. Delivered and picked it up on Thursday and then today the payment was reverted to my Revolut...it's like they cancelled the order after sending it...free home hub!

I ordered a nest WiFi and point from the Google UK store with parcel motel NI address and it came through fine

I have the hub max but only toyed around with the video calling once or twice. You can use the duo app to call the device from your mobile phone, I'm almost sure you can call someone from the device who has the duo app but don't take my word for it.

Video calling is nice but most of the time it's easier just to call my wife's mobile if I'm out and about as she may or may not be in the kitchen where our hub max is located. The larger display is good in bigger rooms and sound quality is better from the larger speaker so overall the unit is superior to the regular sized hubs

They have seven days to take it again and they will. This happens more frequently than you think, most other credit cards don't show it the way Revolut do so you don't notice it happening.
