Google Nest Hub Max Smart Displays in Dubai & UAE

A 10-inch screen, speaker, and built-in camera in one device — for video calls, viewing your Nest cameras, and controlling the rest of your smart home. Supplied and set up by SG Automations across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the UAE.

10" Touchscreen Built-In Camera Dual-Band Wi-Fi Thread Border Router

1What's Currently Available

Both products in this collection are the same device — the Google Nest Hub Max, 10-inch — in two finishes: Charcoal and Chalk. There's no smaller 7-inch Nest Hub currently stocked alongside it, so the choice here comes down to color rather than screen size or feature set.

Unlike the Nest Mini speaker sold elsewhere in this collection, the Nest Hub Max hasn't been discontinued — Google still actively sells it and has committed to automatic security updates for at least five years from its original release. It's a mature, currently supported product rather than a legacy holdover.

2What the Nest Hub Max Actually Does

It combines three things in one device: a 10.1-inch touchscreen, a stereo speaker system, and a 6.5-megapixel camera with a wide field of view. That camera enables Face Match, which personalizes what the screen shows depending on who's standing in front of it, and video calling with auto-framing that keeps you in shot as you move around the room.

The screen also functions as a live control panel for the rest of a Google Home setup — including viewing feeds from any Nest cameras or Nest doorbells installed elsewhere in the home, right on the kitchen counter or bedside table, without needing to open the phone app.

3The Built-In Camera and Privacy

Because the Hub Max has an always-available camera, placement matters more than it does for a screen-only device. It includes a physical switch that disconnects both the microphone and camera at the hardware level — not just a software toggle — with an LED indicator confirming the current mode.

For bedrooms in particular, it's worth deciding upfront whether the camera should stay active or be switched off by default, rather than leaving it on simply because that's how it arrived out of the box.

4Dual-Band Wi-Fi and Thread Support

Unlike most other Nest hardware — cameras, doorbells, and the Nest Mini speaker all connect on 2.4GHz only — the Hub Max supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi, so it isn't affected by the band-splitting issue that trips up other Nest device installs.

It also has a Thread border router built in, which matters if the household later adds Thread-based devices like a Nest x Yale smart lock — the Hub Max can act as part of the mesh connecting those devices reliably, rather than each one needing its own separate hub.

iChoosing and Placing a Nest Hub Max

  1. Charcoal or Chalk is purely cosmetic — both units have identical specs, so pick based on what matches the room.
  2. Kitchen counters and bedside tables are the two most common placements — close enough to touch and see clearly, within reach of a power outlet.
  3. If you already own Nest cameras or a doorbell, this is the best way to view them at a glance — a permanent screen beats opening the app for a quick check.
  4. Decide your default camera/mic setting before first use — especially in a bedroom, rather than leaving factory defaults in place.
  5. It works fine on either Wi-Fi band — unlike other Nest devices in this store, there's no need to create a separate 2.4GHz-only network for this one.

?Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between the Charcoal and Chalk Nest Hub Max?

Only the color. Both are the same 10-inch Nest Hub Max with identical screen, speaker, camera, and connectivity specifications.

Is the Nest Hub Max being discontinued like the Nest Mini?

No. The Nest Hub Max remains actively sold by Google, unlike the Nest Mini and Nest Audio speakers, which ended production in 2026. It also carries a commitment to automatic security updates for at least five years from its original release.

Can I turn off the camera and microphone on the Nest Hub Max?

Yes. It has a physical hardware switch that disconnects both the mic and camera, with an LED indicator confirming whether they're active.

Can the Nest Hub Max show footage from my Nest cameras or doorbell?

Yes. It can display live feeds from Nest cameras and doorbells connected to the same Google Home account, directly on its screen.

Does the Nest Hub Max need a separate 2.4GHz-only network like other Nest devices?

No. It supports both 2.4GHz and 5GHz Wi-Fi, so it works fine on a standard merged-band mesh network without the band-splitting some other Nest devices require.

Does the Nest Hub Max work as a Thread hub for other smart home devices?

Yes. It has a Thread border router built in, allowing it to connect and maintain a stable mesh for Thread-compatible devices like certain smart locks, without each device needing its own separate hub.
