You Can Get a Google Display Hub for 40% Off Right Now
One of my favorite smart tech hubs is the Google Nest Display, and it's 40% off today at Walmart. You can control all your smart devices through apps on your phone, but a hub makes a great addition to your home. It allows you to have a remote spot where you can control all of your smart devices, including for guests like house sitters or babysitters. And some hubs like the Google Nest also work with voice commands and a Google Assistant, so as long as you're within earshot you can just speak to the hub and your Assistant will do the rest.
The Nest Display ups the ante a bit with its video interface. Instead of just being a speaker like a Google Mini, you get an interface to control those devices, and you can use it to watch videos from any provider or make video calls.
If your kitchen doesn't have a hub yet, this sale is a good time to grab one
I think kitchens are the best place for a Nest Display. It lets you handle a lot of tasks while your hands are busy cooking, like making video calls, watching recipe videos, and interacting with the Assistant by just speaking to it. I love having a hub in my kitchen to get quick measurement conversions or double check what oven temperature I should use. I can also control music throughout the house during a dinner party, or check my alarms and cameras before turning in for the night. The kitchen is the hub of my house, and that hub needs, well, a hub.
Normally the Google Nest Display is $99.99, but at the time of writing, this Walmart sale takes the price down to $59.98.
