Amazon's latest flagship Echo Show 10, now swivels and follows you around. Creepy. The Google Nest Hub Max is the best that the search giant has to offer. Which 10-inch smart display reigns supreme?
The new Amazon Echo Show 10 arrived not too long ago. We've done a separate review that you can find at this link - • Echo Show 10 - Alexa I... .
The main feature that makes the latest 3rd generation Echo Show 10 apart from its predecessors is the rotating screen that, creepily, follows you around. It also tilts manually, around 40 degrees up and down. You can use the settings to tweak it to suit your needs. Other upgrades include a faster processor and a new four-microphone array. A Zigbee hub is built-in for great smart home product compatibility and integration.
The Google Nest Hub Max has not received any updates since its launch back in late early 2020. But it remains the top smart display in the search giant's arsenal. The screen is somewhat smaller at 10 inches vs the 10.1 inches of the Echo Show, but that's just splitting hairs. The Nest Hub Max has received many software updates and, for the most part, is extremely stable. It benefits greatly from the power of Google's search engine, making the Nest smart assistants, historically, a little more intelligent when answering questions and queries.
The question is, which is the better overall smart display? Which one does what it asks better? Well, we've put both through a battery of real-world tests that should give you a good understanding of each device and its potential weaknesses and strengths.
