    Not a great "upgrade"

    I upgraded from version 1 to this because the old one was starting to come apart. Google seems to have fixed that issue with the design of this one. So right of the bat, the look is better then version one I think. I didn't really do a lot of research on the product before buying it though, I just thought it would be an "upgrade". Well I don't really love the change in camera view. The fish lens on the version one let me see my whole porch area. This really only shows the area in front of the door. It would be nice if you can change the view to a wide view. The camera is also kind of grainy, which was surprising to me. I set the settings to MAX for camera and all. It also changed from the nest app to the google home app. Kind of annoying since I built a nest camera ecosystem. That's fine, but I just never really liked the google home app for my cameras. I'd say this is a good buy if you are going to a doorbell camera from nothing, but changing from version one, you might not be happy with the updates.

      Hi there speakandTv, thanks for the feedback, and for trying out the new Nest Doorbell (wire, 2nd gen). We’re sorry to hear it didn't meet your expectations

      Unlike some other video doorbells, Nest Doorbell (battery) has a 145° diagonal field of view at 3:4 aspect ratio. It means you can see people from head to toe, and packages left on the ground. Also, we’re aware that longtime Nest users enjoy viewing the camera videos using the Nest app or web app. However, the new Nest cameras and doorbell are exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience with your speakers and displays. A Nest Aware subscription applies to all of your cameras, speakers, and displays in the same home structure. And you can view both your old and new Nest Cams together in the Home app.

      If you come across any challenges with using the doorbell in the Home app effectively, let us know here and we’ll do our best to help: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

      Hey there, Jake. Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Nest Doorbell (wired, 2nd gen). We hear your concern about using the Google Home app. We’re aware that longtime Nest users enjoy viewing their Nest camera feeds from the Nest app. However, our long term plan is to use the Google Home app as the one place you can control all of your favorite Nest and other smart home devices, as well as Google Assistant. In the near future, we’ll allow users to set up previous Nest devices and have full control in the Home app. Users with older cameras can view camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams. Our team is working on bringing full functionality to the Google Home app so all of your cameras can be set up and controlled in one place.

      If support is needed, please let us know here and we'll do our best to help provide a better experience for you: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    I bought this doorbell Oct of 2023 .. at first I liked it but now it’s Jan of 2024 and it’s been a headache.. it was an easy install but every time my power goes out or I have to reset my WiFi the doorbell goes offline and I ave to unscrew it from the wall mount just to press the reset button, so it can reconnect… it’s annoying because I have to use the special Allen wrench, the notch is close to the wall where you can’t make a full turn so it’s a bunch of little turns to get the screw out to wiggle the doorbell out of place. Use something small to press the reset button, then put it all back together. I have the battery doorbell as well and I don’t have this problem, it’ll automatically connects when the Wi-Fi connects back.

      Hi there, Alex. Thank you for sharing your review on Nest Doorbell (wired, 2nd gen). We're glad to hear that you're having a good time with the device. The notifications in the Google Home app are set to off by default. You won't receive alerts about activity in your home, such as if a camera detects motion or if someone has rung the doorbell. If you've already turned the notifications on and the issue still persists, then we recommend reaching out to our dedicated team of specialists on our Google Help page for immediate support here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    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.
