I bought one in grade 1 about 6 months ago or so. Been pretty good so far.
Similar to Amazon ones.

Get more than legendary sound. The integrated display included on JBL LINK VIEW allows you to get things done easily, it also has the Google Assistant built in, you can ask questions and tell it to do things. Just start with "Hey Google" to quickly enjoy your entertainment, stay connected with loved ones, view glanceable answers, manage daily tasks, and control your smart home. Your Assistant can help free up your hands and time, so you can focus on the things that matter most. Like watching videos of your favorite YouTube creators, reliving memories of your latest family vacation, making a video call to your best friend, receiving step-by-step baking instructions, or dimming the lights for movie night. All this is delivered through a proprietary JBL transducer array, driven by a digital amplifier tuned to deliver full rich bass and crystal clear highs. This amazing combination of Google Assistant, JBL Audio horsepower and HD display make JBL LINK VIEW a must have for your home or office.

  The JBL LINK VIEW is listed at $70.00 primarily because it is legacy hardware being sold off as clearout stock.

  Pros

  • Great Audio Quality: Features twin drivers and a passive radiator for richer bass and clearer sound than most standard smart displays.
  • Large HD Touchscreen: Clear 8-inch screen for watching YouTube, viewing recipes, and managing smart home devices.
  • Built-in Privacy: Physical camera shutter (PrivacySwitch) and microphone mute switch.
  • Kitchen-Friendly: Splash-proof design that is easy to wipe down.
  • Smart Home Hub: Integrated Google Assistant, Chromecast built-in, and Bluetooth streaming.

  Cons

  • Outdated Hardware: Released in 2018, so performance can feel slower compared to current devices.
  • Limited Software Support: Runs on older Android Things OS platform, meaning fewer feature updates and potential app incompatibility over time.
  • Bulky Footprint: Larger oval design takes up significant counter space.
  • No Gemini: Lacking native support for Google Gemini.

    I've used a Nest Hub as an alarm clock since it launched, and I love it. I only use it via voice to set my daily alarms, and to control lights. It tracks my sleep, too.

    I wouldn't go with this JBL one. Too old to buy new, and Google is eventually going to end Assistant.

  I noticed my JBL Link Music updated and works with Gemini, if this does that would be great

  Okay I'm gonna be an egg but I hate these things almost passionately.

  I don't know why, I don't understand my reasoning but I hate them.

  Didn't this have a lot of problems? I have a j l playlist which is this without the screen and it's wifi audio has never really been great.

  I love the idea of these things and the xiaomi and Google ones I have are great at multi room audio, just the playlist never really worked
