Is The Eero Max 7 A BIG Waste Of Money? (WiFi 7 Is Here... Apparently)

- My Facebook feed is currently flooded with Eero ads for the new Eero Max 7, a Wi-Fi 7 compatible device to rival TP-Link's Deco BE85 and Netgear's Orbi 970 range. But is the Max 7 (and its competitors) any good - or are they a waste of money right now?
After all, the vast majority of household connected devices are still stuck on 5 GHz or even 2.4 GHz. Amazon (who own Eero) aren't helping because they keep mass producing millions of Amazon Echo and Ring devices that are stuck on 2.4 GHz/5 GHz - with no WiFi 6 support in sight.
Plus most ISP's are waaaay too slow, offering sub-gigabit speeds. So is there are benefit in buying the 10 gigabit-supporting Max 7 from Eero?
The short answer is YES: while it's a really, really expensive product, it has some awesome new Qualcomm networking hardware and a larger antenna array - deliving longer Wi-Fi range and lower latencies.
I wrap up this video by discussing why I'm not personally upgrading my 4x Eero Pro 6 set-up just yet, though. I'll probably wait another 4-5 years before upgrading.

Great legitimate review! So hard to find an honest review of products.
Great Video! This really only applies to one of two areas for now. First being if you are lucky enough to have a ISP that offers higher speeds. I currently have Frontier in Florida. I have 5g up and 5g down. They actually include this router with the purchase of the 5g speed. The other would be is if you have a NAS/Raid back up or some other kind of server set up in which you wanted the fastest possible transfer speeds with out spending a lot of money setting up an expensive Ubiquiti system.
Thanks, and great points - I agree entirely. Kudos on the 5g connection too, and that's pretty interesting that they send the Max 7 as part of that deal. 🙂 There's some ISPs here that send Eero 6 routers as part of 500-1000Mbps packages, but unfortunately we don't really have above 1g packages in the UK.
I got orbi 970 wifi 7 rmesh system. and wht i noticed was all bands speed imrive. 2.4ghz went from 100 to 250 mbps, 5 ghz went from 500 to 900 mbps and 6 ghz went from 1.1 to 1.6gb/s and wifi 7 device 2.8gb/s
Wow that's really impressive, such nice gains do make it worth the investment in the 970 system, I agree 👏
I sent it back 💨
Wow really, was that due to low performance? Or because you realised it made you bankrupt?! 🙈
@@TechOverwrite no good
Interesting, sorry to hear that. It does seem like it's been slightly rushed out.
