    We got this for our new home. Love the picture is do clear. Love that it alerts you to someone at the door or with a package. Love that you can lower sensitivity to animals. Wish it had a different notification tone so I can tell the difference between a regular notification on my phone and the doorbell notification.

    Easy to set up. The only downside is that the older generation had a wider viewing angle. This is moreso set up for portrait rather than landscape which limits how much of the front of your house is viewable.

    This replaced a gen 1 model that had died out of warranty. The camera gets afternoon sun that had caused overheating issues with the previous model. I believe this model in all white will fare better. I had issues with video not archiving at first, but I replaced the old doorbell transformer (16v/10a) with a 16v/30a transformer. All issues went away and it works great now. The only issue is it doesn't automatically switch to night vision at night because of a few bright lights in front of the house, leaving a dark spot at the every way. The new home app is also a significant improvement after the loss of the Nest app.

      Hey there, Mike. Thank you for choosing Nest Doorbell (wired, 2nd gen) and we're sorry to hear that you're experiencing some difficulties with the night vision of your device. When night vision is set to Auto, your device will switch between normal and night modes when the light gradually changes. We recommend setting your device's night vision to Always On. The night vision will stay on until you manually set it to Auto or Off, even if there's plenty of ambient light. You can follow the steps on the link here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9249162

      And if you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us on our Google Help page here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    This bell camera was easy to install and picture/video quality is good. Our doorbell now sounds weaker, which is disappointing. Also, the monthly fee is a drawback. Overall, it is as advertised.

    Google has finally got it right. I owned the older version and it stopped working after 2 years. The new bell is easy to install and open while older version I struggled to detach. The camera has clarity. Easly syncs with other nest products.

    Quality doorbell and security video

    This is my 3rd Nest doorbell as I've purchased one for each of our last three homes. I believe the Nest doorbell is superior to their leading competitors. The Nest also aligns well with other Nest products such as thermostats, Co2 devices and more. Although I preferred the Nest app (that I used before Google purchased Nest) far more than the Google Home app, the Google Home app is getting better. 30 day video history monitoring is availible for $60/year which is better than many of the other home security devices on the market.

    App and video works well. Some delay when trying to quickly access video and possibly speak with visitor. Chime does not work inside! Extremely frustrating!! Tried every fix and Google is impossible with whom to communicate and unresponsive! This is also a known issue to Google with the regulator disc. They should proactively offer a replacement!

      Thanks for reaching out about your Nest Doorbell wired 2nd gen, DianaE. We hear your frustration regarding the issues with the chime. There’s a few things check to make sure everything is working properly — here’s what to review:

      1. Check chime settings: If you have a mechanical chime (moving parts that make the sound), the chime duration option should be turned off. This setting is for electronic or digital chimes only.
      2. Check doorbell wires: It's possible that a wire came loose when you put your doorbell on the backplate, or that the wires aren't tight enough. Make sure that the wires are securely connected.
      3. Check chime connector: Check the chime box to ensure the Chime Connector and wires aren't touching any moving parts, which could muffle the sound.

    Disappointing Picture Quality

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

    “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.

      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.
