Lenovo - 10" Smart Display with Google Assistant - White Front/Bamboo Back

I purchased this during the Black Friday promotion for $99. I used points and a gift card to get the price down to $59.99. I think that is a good deal. I really am enjoying the google assistant features. I also like being able to ask google to cast music to my Sony sound bar. I don’t like that when I ask google to play next song or what song is playing it does not know unless I ask what is playing on my sound bar or specifically ask it to play next song on my sound bar. I have the Insignia google assistant portable speaker which is excellent and I don’t have to specifically ask to skip song on sound bar or what is playing on sound bar. That speaker just knows it is casting to that device automatically. It does know what song is playing when asked if you are playing music through the built in speaker. My WiFi has gone out twice in a few months time and the Insignia google assistant speaker re connected automatically when the router came back online. My Lenovo google assistant did not reconnect automatically when my router just went out again recently. I don’t think it has an off switch to re set it. I ended up unplugging it and plugging it back in to re set the WiFi connection. I am using this as an alarm clock and if I hadn’t woken up at about 3:30 am and noticed the white screen saying to reconnect to WiFi I am assuming the alarm would not have gone off. I am hesitant to trust this as an alarm now. The Insignia speaker clock also goes blank when WiFi is lost and I am assuming that alarm would not go off either but at least it reconnects to WiFi automatically. I think google should not require to have WiFi at all times for something as simple as the alarm clock feature. I am still giving this four stars though because when it works its very useful with providing almost instant answers to your questions. It’s amazing how quickly these google assistant devices are able to search the various internet sources and provide an answer. The single speaker is ok but not as good as the Insignia portable. That allows you to adjust bass and treble with the google home app. This Lenovo display doesn’t. I think they should have made it with a speaker on each side of the screen to double the output power. I guess they just wanted to make it more compact for a night stand which this is great for! The screen is a nice feature to be able to see multiple alarms or timers that have been set. Just be weary of possible unreliable alarms if your WiFi goes out on occasion. Also nice to see either your personal google photos collection or the default photos provided from various categories like fine art, earth, etc.

The Lenovo 7' smart display seems to be a nice product in build and for the most part function so far. The picture and sound quality is descent. I like the speakers being on the bottom and the whole unit is sturdy on the counter due to the weight and rubber pads. The idea behind this item would be just as if not more useful for the kitchen as the bedroom because of the photo frame and ability to look up, display and even read aloud a recipe to you while working in the kitchen. It plays music nicely. Alarms and timers as well. Now for the short comings: The Google ecosystem doesn't have to be so involved to get something up and running. Being fairly tech savvy I was frustrated that it took this Lenovo and Google Home app several attempts to get it initialized on the app and froze part way thru 3 or 4 times and timed out after resetting it and repeating, it all worked out and has been fine after that. Our only other negative is the lack of apps for the display but that to this point hasn't been a big negative. It only supports Duo and Pandora etc. and would be nice to have more flexibility in these areas. While trying to work thru the freezing and pairing problems I attempted to get some contact info for Lenovo because It was looking like I would need it and support and contact info with Lenovo is a Joke! Hope this was helpful

The display is a nice size and really good. I have tried almost all of the features and they work great. The video calls are quite clear. The sound is amazing. The only con is I have trouble casing to it and sometimes it acts like it doesn’t hear me when I instruct it to play a sound. This is an overall great produce, sleek design & has a great look to it!

Great smart display, the look is very modern. I wasn't a fan of the black borders so I purchased a white skin which made it much sleeker with a completely white front. The speakers on this are better than the hub and the screen size is so much better for the kitchen as the hub was just a bit too small.

So very easy to set up out of the box !!! Choice of male or female voice for spoken responses. Sound is SUPERB !!! Can be set to F/T clock face for use in the bedroom (as I have done) > auto-brightness is spot on (see pics) Setting an upcoming alarm is as easy as saying: {hey google... set an alarm for 6:30 am tomorrow ~ she says: alarm is set for 6:30 am tomorrow} That’s all there is too it... Of course if you use yours in the kitchen or family room >> Google Home app has so many more options available !!!!

We have had the original Google Home for over 2 years, to which we’ve added 5 minis, a Google Home Hub, and many smart plugs, multicolor smart lights, and other IOT devices, including a smart diffuser, but this is our latest purchase. We initially purchased the Google Home Hub for the kitchen, but it truthfully works better in the bedroom as a night stand Hub. This device works better for the kitchen, especially with the larger screen, the more features, and the video calling. The Google Home Hub has many things going in its favor, but this is definitely the better choice for the kitchen.

I was deciding to buy google hub but this was better than google hub with ability to have physical shutter for the camera and bigger and better screen with the ability to go into portrait mode. I definitely prefer this more than google home hub. Arrived in good condition and got on a Black Friday deal for 99. Just worth every penny

Perfect smart display , comes with google assistant . You can play music videos , few games for kids . A very nice photo frame for your google pics
