    I was contemplating since long time to get this doorbell for various reasons including Google home smooth support. instructions were very clear on set up and on what all needed to fix it on the wall. it comes with wedge and all required materials. if you already have transformer in your home working it is very easy to add. Very smooth set up and connections. I haven't used chime it comes with as I have nest hub at home that notifies me if someone at the door and turn off internal chime during set up for longer transformer life.

    Better than the original version, easy install, took may 1 hour, like the door bell chime attachment, made it so could use my original door bell chime in the house. The video is clear, package and person detection much better. Would recommend this to anyone, even with the price it ua wrll worth it, I was lucky got it on sale. This rwplaced my version 1 of Google door bell which lasted many years but with desert temps the covering for lens got famaged.

    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

    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.

    The only thing good about this doorbell is the installation is updated and easier than the Gen 1. This doorbell constantly disconnects from Wi-Fi. At least 3 times a day for me. Have even installed a Wi-Fi extender to no avail. Also forces you to use google home app, which is overly complicated. Would not recommend at all. stick with Gen 1

    Great Doorbell Camera

    So far I love this doorbell camera. I have a lot of other Nest products so it fit within the ecosystem seamlessly. The install was pretty straightforward. One word of caution. Check your doorbell transformer before buying! I didn't and found that the transformer I had was underpowered (6v I believe). So I had to go to Home Depot and pick up a new one and install that before I could use the camera. Setup was a breeze. Features are great. Picture quality is perfect. It's a great doorbell camera. And the color matches my outside wall perfectly!

    Love everything except that it requires a subscription for full use. They really milk you for the money. Got it because my toddlers would always break out of the house into the street so it was an added bonus to have a n additional ding to my phone if there was movement upfront.

    I recently upgraded my home security system with the Google Nest Doorbell Wired (2nd Generation), and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. As someone who values both convenience and top-notch security features, this smart doorbell has become an integral part of my home setup. One of the standout features of the Nest Doorbell Wired is its straightforward installation process. The package includes everything needed for a smooth setup, and the step-by-step instructions in the Nest app make it accessible even for those not well-versed in technology. Within minutes, I had the doorbell up and running, seamlessly integrating it into my existing Nest ecosystem. The design of the Nest Doorbell Wired is sleek and unobtrusive, blending seamlessly with the aesthetics of my home. The build quality is robust, giving a sense of durability and reliability. The weather resistance ensures it can withstand various outdoor conditions, providing peace of mind that it will perform consistently in any weather.

    After reviewing the instructions and verifying a few items the install and setup went well. It easily setup in the Google home with the rest of our devices. The angle mounting block was a nice piece too since it was mounted in a corner area. Highly recommended.
