When subscription costs rose on the OG Nest doorbell, our home went on a multi year trial and error quest to find a suitable non-subscription/cheap and trustworthy replacement. Especially given the recent Eufy breach of trust - I'm extremely glad to have only tried their product for a short while. Using this latest wired version of the Google Doorbell without a subscription gives me 99% of the features that I want, and it's reliable by factors of magnitude more than the competition for the price.

Love love love this device. I get alerts on my phone when someone is close to the door, regardless if they ring the bell or not. I can monitor package delivery and even answer the door remotely if im not at home

This is my 3rd Nest doorbell. The first died during a thunderstorm and was replaced by Google under warranty. The second died during an ice storm. Both apparently couldn't take a power surge. Still, both provided a clear view of my driveway and walk. The current one does the same but with increased resolution. I can zoom in to see exactly what's happening across the street. Hopefully with the addition of a surge protector, this one will last longer than 4 years.

Disappointing Picture Quality

“Upgraded” my first gen Nest Doorbell I purchased in 2018 for the 2nd gen wired Google Nest doorbell in 2025. Pretty disappointed in my purchase. Picture quality is the same, likely even worse than my 2018 Nest model. Even with the proper settings, this one doesn’t record as much “non-events” as the 1st Nest one.

Brand response from Google Team

Thanks for reaching out about your Nest Doorbell (wired, 2nd gen), JohnE. Sorry to hear you're having problems with picture quality on your doorbell — we understand this may be frustrating. Here are steps to make sure you’re getting the maximum quality:
1. Open the Home app. 2. Tap and hold your device's tile. 3. At the top right, tap Settings. 4. Choose Video. 5. Under “Video quality,” choose Max or High. High settings use less bandwidth. Max settings use more bandwidth.

I love this door bell i just wish it would notify on the smart speakers when someone walks up to the door and leaves without hitting the doorbell. I get notifications on my phone but im not always home and the wife is and all the package delivery conpanies dont ring doorbells anymore it’s ridiculous lol.

I've been wanting to get this for a while. Love that I could order a color to coordinate with the siding on our home. Tech was even able to connect to the inside door chime for a small fee. I happened to get a tech that was also an electrician. My lucky day! Love, love, love this product and I have nothing but good things to say about google products. I NEVER do reviews. That's how much I love this product.

It works great, blends in with the house and fits in a compact awkward spot of the doorbell.
