Google’s smart home line-up has been in limbo since 2024, when the company introduced the Google TV Streamer and Nest Learning Thermostat. But on paper, the ecosystem has been stalling for far longer than that. We only had the Pixel Tablet, Nest Wifi Pro, and Nest Doorbell in the two years prior, and the last time Google ever thought about putting a smart speaker or display in our homes was in 2021 with the Nest Hub (2nd gen).
While updates to the Google Home app have made it more interesting to use, that was a laudable improvement in 2023. We’re three years later now, and all we have to show for it is an app that works slightly better, has nicer automations, and… Gemini?! I guess we have Gemini. Yet, complaints about the entire Google Home ecosystem, from speakers to voice assistants, have been deafening, especially considering the number of bugs and issues we’ve all run into.
