Security and convenience are the most common motivators for installing smart home devices, followed by entertainment and saving money. Walmart dropped the prices on the Google Home Hub smart display bundled with either the third-generation Nest Learning Thermostat or the Nest Outdoor Security Camera.
The Google Home Hub, more recently sold as the Nest Home Hub, is a smart display and smart speaker, adding visual information to audio content. The Home Hub can show you step-by-step recipe instructions, play TV shows, movies, and security camera live streams, or display your favorite photos. The Home Hub can also act as a management and control center for a wide and growing range of additional smart home devices.
We monitor the best deals, discounts, and bundles on smart home devices from Amazon, Walmart, and other major merchants. Even if you don’t have another smart home device, with either of these bundles, you can get started using Google Assistant to answer questions and entertain your family. Installed with the thermostat or the security camera, the Home Hub will help you discover why smart home setups have become popular. Whether you’re a smart home newbie or upgrading an existing smart home configuration with additional functions, each of these two deals can help you save $70.
