The department will keep launching Google Home products after the merging. Google Home and Amazon Echo will compete for more market share.

Nest Labs has been struggling for survial after the acquisition. Tony Fadell, co-founder and CEO of Nest Labs was kicked out in June. He was critized for rough management. Under his management, 50 employees of Dropcam which acquired by Nest left the company. They felt their creativity and innovation of excellent new products were destroyed.

Google placed high hopes on Nest Labs, however, it let Google down. Many of Nest products had serious quality problems and many refunds were made as a result.

Two years after the acquisition, Nest Labs encountered internal disorders. The resign of Fadell meant the end of its disorders.
