Our Verdict

Google Nest Wifi Pro

eero Pro 6

The eero Pro 6 and the Google Nest Wifi Pro are sleek-looking tri-band routers designed for easy integration into a mesh network with multiple access points. The main difference is that the Google is Wi-Fi 6E, whereas the eero is Wi-Fi 6. Despite the Google router's newer technology, the two perform similarly; the eero is better at longer ranges.
