Google is no stranger to giving away free Assistant-capable devices, but the company's latest promotion is more interesting in that you can snag a free Nest Hub. The company has started emailing some Nest Aware subscribers in the US and the UK to offer them the Assistant-enabled smart display. The offer, which was spotted by Android Police, is valid through July 31st.

If you already received the email but weren't able to claim your smart display, Android Police reports the redemption process is now working. In a separate offer, Google is also trying to incentivize some people to subscribe to Nest Aware by offering them a free Nest Mini.

The promotions come after Google streamlined Nest Aware in May. Instead of paying per camera, the new subscription starts at $60 per year (or $6 per month) and provides 30 days of event video for all the Nest security devices inside your home. The more expensive $120 per year Nest Aware Plus subscription comes with 60 days of event history and 10 days of 24/7 history.

If you're not a Nest Aware customer, don't worry; you can still snag some free hardware. Until June 30th, YouTube Premium, YouTube Music Premium and Google Play Music subscribers can claim a free Nest Mini.

Update 2:03PM ET: An Engadget reader pointed out they were able to redeem the same offer in the UK, so it doesn’t appear this promotion is limited to the US.
