3rd Gen for it right!
Installed this doorbell with existing doorbell wire. Had 20 volts so didn't have to do anything. Comes with everything needed for the install. Connected with my Google home app instantly and works perfectly. Wife wanted to get rid of ugly doorbell ringer so ours rings just to our Google mini's placed throughout the house.

Great improvement over previous gen....
Really nice doorbell by Google. I happened to have the 2nd gen wired before, and its a major upgrade in terms of video quality, but also quantity, what do I mean? Well the 2nd gen one had good video quality, however it was so narrow I could not see to the sides of my front door, yes, I could see the floor for packages but I didn't need to see so vertically that I could see the ceiling and sky.... Well this one fixes that. The video wider now but will also let you see the floor for packages like before. Video quality has been upped too. Installing it was super easy, even more so if you had the 2nd gen before like me, because it uses the same mounting mechanism! I swapped it in 5 minutes. If not, they include everything you need to get it installed, including an angle wedge if you need to angle the camera a bit. The Home app guides you step by step with pictures how to get it installed. Once installed, this new one has more AI features than before, thanks to Google Gemini. However, you have to pay for it (they do include a free month, which I did not use, because I had a better deal since I also have Google One for more storage on other Google devices). If you use the premium version of the subscription you have access to more storage time and AI features (this include 24/7 recording, AI prompts, like better descriptions of what the camera is seeing). If not, you can still use it without the subscriptions, but you get way less storage and no AI features. I do like it recognizes packages, faces (you can save those for future recognitions of people you know), animals, cars etc. You can create zones too, and choose which alert you our not, so you are not bombarded with notifications. One thing I notices, is Google needs to improve the alert timing and night vision. It feels its software/firmware its not completely out of a beta phase... Specially the alerts, its very inconsistent, sometimes I will get alerts right away, sometimes it will lag some a not alert me after a several seconds even minutes... This is critical, specially if you have packages seating on your porch... Also the night vision... its worse and darker than my 2nd gen, an also, it should not switch automatically to it, I have plenty of light and it should stay in color night mode, however this needs to be tweaked, because if I leave it on "auto", even with so much light on my front door, it still switches to the black and white night vision, which, as stated before, is very bad as of right now.... In all, great improvement over the previous gen, but needs some work on the software side by Google, I have sent some feedbacks (which you can do through the Google Home app), if they take them and fix those little bugs soon, it could be one of the best doorbells out there!
