Coming up with a New Year’s resolution can be tough. If you’re just not feeling that “New year, new me” mindset, don’t force it.

The Google Home Hub can help you get your shit together, and it’s $50 off at just $99.99 today (the same as its Black Friday price, NBD.)

Google took a while (three years, to be exact) to bring a smart home device with a screen to the market to compete with the Echo lineup, but that waiting was worth it. Just released in November 2018, it’s everything you know and love about the Google Home and Google Home Mini, now even more immersive.

Referred to by Mashable’s Ray Wong as the world’s best digital photo fame, the Google Home Hub sports a 7-inch screen and iconic design that screams Google, making it easy to show off your favorite high-res photos, watch YouTube videos, follow recipes, see song lyrics, and all the other smart speaker stuff you’d expect.

There’s no camera for video calling like the Echo Spot or Show have, which is a bummer if you were expecting to be social — but it excels so much in other areas, you probably won’t miss it. Just ask Macaulay Culkin:

We’ve also heard that Google Assistant answers more questions more accurately than Alexa — no shade, though.

Regularly $149, you can save $49.01 and grab your new best friend for $99.99 — that’s $130 less than the second gen Echo Show.
