    Same here. Love mine so far even of it's main job is as a smart clock loving the retro clock face. The home control integration is good. Spotify works great.

    Do third party doorbells work with this or only the Google doorbell?

    Yeah they are great for the price. Very handy with Google Duo as well to make calls to mobile devices.

    Is there a way to connect google home devices together so they output the same audio when playing things like Spotify?

    Yeah you can set up what's called a 'speaker group' in the google home app.

    Yep works now. It thought I was in Netherlands first time (work laptop), which apparently makes it full price.

    Downside is the increased price had justified me not buying it, now I'm not sure again...
    Cheers!

    Not happy at all with this and will be returning. Touchscreen is unresponsive. Photo background not available. Routines not available. Just a glorified clock at the moment.

    Not natively... Though if you've a home assistant setup and a third party camera integrated you can cast your dashboard to the hub and get notifications that way. But not ability to use the doorbell mic.

    This is mainly the reason I've picked up another one of these for the office as a home dashboard.

    Have you tried a factory reset? Press and hold both volume buttons together for 10 seconds; a message should appear on the screen telling you about the reset - just keep holding the buttons down until it restarts.

    If it's still unresponsive after that, then return it. But that's probably the first thing support would tell you to do!

    I have one these and think they are fantastic - especially now at the op price .

    I have mine in the kitchen. One of the main things I use mine for is casting from the RTE app. It plays perfectly on the screen.

    Could even replace a telly in a kitchen if you just use the basic RTE channels.

    Routines not available? I just tried "tell me about my day" and it worked. Now I play news at the end of mine and it didn't play the news. I had to ask it specifically to do it then it worked.

    Forgot about casting?!

    The screen is fantastic quality I must say ... also it looks like you can connect Bluetooth headphones to it also. Check out audio settings in the Google Home app.

    Anyone figured out how to create a live photo album yet with Google photos?

    I've watched numerous YouTube videos, but the option isn't there on my app no matter what I do. :confused:

    You've been lucky. Looking back over my last 5 orders there's been a glitch in 4 of them. And don't bother contacting "support" to help.

    In any case, fair dues to DHL, they got it back on track and it got from Leipzig to Waterford in 12 hours.

    Philips Hue are probsbly the most well known, other cheaper options such as TP Link, search on amazon for smart bulbs and anything compatible with google home will work.

    Can someone please convince me that I don't need this?!! I already have a Google Home (BA thread), Lenovo Smart Clock (BA thread), two Google Minis in use, two more minis in the press (BA thread) yet to be unboxed. But it would work nicely with my Nest doorbell, also purchased due to a BA thread...

    It worth it for the screen , make it way more useful especially if you already have a nest doorbell.

    Hate to say it but if you have a nest doorbell, you should get one at this price.

    I gave various google devices, the doorbell, 2 of these and a hub max and am wondering where I could use a third lol
