    We are remodeling and purchased this to put in our entry area. It has not yet been installed but what we know from neighbors is that the wired version is extremely reliable.

    So far so good. I purchased this instead of ring because we already have the nest thermostats and wanted to keep it all connected. Great video and sound quality.

    Clear picture, but compared to first generation Nest doorbell, this does not have the wider view of the first generation.

    Still a little clucky in form and size but it works as intended. The color options aren't that great but I just bought a slick wrap and applied it so it would better blend into my door. If you are invested in the Google ecosystem it is a work while buy if you find it on sale. Unfortunately the Google Home app still has a lot of work to do. The Nest app was far superior.

      Hi there, Aross663. Thanks for the review, and for sharing your thoughts about the Nest Doorbell (wired, 2nd gen). We’re sorry to hear that the color options along with its app integration are below your preferences.

      We understand that longtime Nest users enjoy viewing their Nest camera/doorbell feeds from the Nest app. However, our priority with this launch was building a complete experience for our new cameras and doorbell in the Google Home app. We’re working on bringing full functionality to the Home app as we want to create an integrated experience with other Nest and smart home devices. And while the new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Google Home app, users with previous versions of Nest cameras can view their camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams.

      We’d be happy to share your feedback, about the color options, with the right team for future improvements. If help is needed, you’re always welcome to visit us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Upgrading from the previous Nest Hello. Looks better, the Nest Hello was starting to peel from the sun. I feel that the notifications come in quicker also.

    good product, bad experience with open box item

    The doorbell works great, video is great, love the product itself. the review would have been higher except that I did not receive all the things I was supposed to get. I did buy an open box one, but it said it was excellent and was supposed to have all original items and original box, etc. It was missing the allen wrench tool that is critical at the final step. It was also missing the wire plug adapter piece to help allow the doorbell to sit flush against the wall....so I had to put spacers in to allow for the rigged wire connections to have room. Now I have to figure out how to fill the gap left around the doorbell. So good product, but bad experience ordering an open box item that was supposed to same as new essentially.

    Super easy to install it took me a minute to figure out but thats just me i wat hed a youtube video on it and after that it was smooth sailing! No power tools were needed and setup was even easier hooked right up to my wifi and the video quality along with the audio quality is next to nothing out right now! Its amazing super crisp and clear with night vision that looks just as good as daytime veiw! Would 10 out of 10 recommend and have recommended!
