The New Nest Hub - now with Soli radar (unboxing)

I love me my Google Assistant and have so many of them around my house.

And I've really gotten used to the display with my Nest Hub Max, so hearing there was a new Nest Hub (sure, not a new Max, so it doesn't have the camera and is just a tad smaller) that had some new enhanced sensing features - I was ready to give it a try.

The new model, just like the new Nest Minis have enhanced bass - but the inclusion of the Soli radar chip means that it can sense activity in the room better.  Not only does it mean you can use the gestures you can on the Hub Max (for pausing), it has the ability to read the room and then it translates that while you're sleeping to give you a sense of how well you slept.

Now that's interesting.  I used to use a Mi Band 3 that had a long battery life, so I had no issue sleeping with it on to measure my sleep.

It would be interesting to see what it comes up with.

Here's my quick unboxing:
