The latest entry to the Google Home ecosystem is called the Google Home Hub. The Home Hub marries a screen with the Google Assistant-powered voice command system, allowing users to call up recipes, utilize smart home controls, or watch YouTube videos.
The Home Hub follows Google’s gentler design motif to a T. The whole thing has a bubbly roundness to it—you won’t find a single sharp corner anywhere. The display corners and bezels are rounded, the colored back panel curves around the sides of the device, and the base is a rounded, wraparound speaker covered in the same sock-like fabric as the Google Home speaker. The Home Hub is cute. You want to pick it up and hold it, even though you aren’t supposed to.
The display might not seem like much on a spec sheet, with only a 1024×600 resolution spread across a seven-inch panel, but it looks great. The ~170 ppi sounds like you’ll get NES-era graphics compared to a smartphone, but the device is intended to be used on a table, usually at arm’s length. At that distance, images are fantastic. It’s in the same density range as a desktop computer screen, which is fine.
