    Out of date specs but not unacceptable. I’ve always loved the look and feel of Google Nest products. I love tech, but I want it to look nice as well, especially if I’m gonna mount it on my house.

    I had the old version of the nest doorbell and I was hesitating to buy this one but I dont regret is really accurate and specific whether is a person or is an animal. Also I love that let me know when a package arrives or someone take the package . I will absolutly recomend it. Crispy image at night and day. It looks more like 2k

    The Google Nest Doorbell Wired (2nd Generation) in Snow has transformed my home security experience. The sleek design seamlessly blends with my door area, and the setup was a breeze. The video quality is impressive, delivering clear and crisp footage day or night. The motion detection and alert features are responsive and customizable, providing an added layer of security. Integration with the Google Home app is seamless, allowing easy access and control. If you're looking for a reliable and high-quality doorbell camera, the Google Nest Doorbell Wired is a top-notch choice. Highly recommended for its performance, design, and ease of use.

    I like this one. The first one I bought was battery operated. You had to charge it with a cord. It was a nightmare to take apart, charge & put back together. Be sure you don’t get battery charge door bell camera.

    Easy Installation - Bigger Field of View

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Bought this to replace an original Nest Doorbell that quit working. I was surprised how much bigger this doorbell was than the 1st generation. Hardware installation was very easy and I like using the Home app to view the video. Unfortunately my other NEST products use the NEST app so I do have to switch back & forth between the apps. I really like the wider (taller) field of view over the previous generation. And the picture is much brighter (so bright that is stays in color even at night just from the street lights). Too bad they didn't update the video resolution like many of the competitors are doing. I recommend this doorbell - especially if you have other NEST products. If you don't have any other NEST products, you may want to shop around a bit to see competitors with higher resolution.

    The camera on this doorbell is quite remarkable. I bought it for my front door to capture the events that happen during the day when I am at work and it works perfectly. I love the wide angles. the best so far.

    Installed using angle mount to hopefully avoid direct sun in the summer. Image quality is way better than my old nest doorbell. See if it can withstand the Arizona summer better too.

    If mid was in the dictionary there would be a picture of this doorbell. Somehow I think it’s worse than the original nest hello I replaced which is sad. It disconnects a lot which is very annoying. I’m not sure if it’s the new software or what it’s just not as reliable. Highly annoyed I bought it as a supposed upgrade.

    We incorrectly purchased a wired device vs. wireless and had to return and trade for the latter. Best Buy staff was tremendous at helping us to exchange the unit purchased for the one required. Oh, but we already have a wired DB of this type installed at another home that is perhaps Gen1 - and it works great! Our 5-6-7 years of experience with the Gen1 DB is what actually influenced us to purchase Nest DB for my parents home. Albeit, Dad told us wires were in the wall for original '50's style DB, but this turned out to NOT be the case. Please verify presence of wires BEFORE attempting purchase and having to make two trips to exchange product like we did
