We’ve tried a few brands of doorbells and this one has become our favorite. After seeing how its features work, we agree this really is the smarter, sharper wired Nest Doorbell! For starters, the clear instructional videos in the app make for a super easy installation and the doorbell is compatible with a variety of transformers and chimes. Having a wired connection means no batteries or charging is necessary. The picture quality is quite good with 2K HDR resolution. An expanded 166° diagonal field of view allows one to see plenty of area up to and around one’s front door. Notifications are quite timely and it is quick to connect to view the video image. We are appreciating how much faster this Nest Doorbell connect compared to our previous doorbell of a different brand. Another feature this doorbell does much better than its competitors in recognition of people, packages and other images. With a subscription we can utilize Gemini to search our video history to see a summary based on search criteria and related video clips. The Google Home Premium subscription also allows for more detailed descriptions with longer access to videos over a greater time period. This doorbell’s many features make using it easier and more efficient. The Google Home app works quite well and we appreciate that it is well structured with tabs and a nice user interface. Notifications are quite timely and there are some quick reply options that come in handy, such as leave the package, not available, and others. Some may not like that additional features like familiar faces or extended video access require a premium subscription, but the features are quite handy and work well. The added ability to perform thorough video searches and receive summary information can be a time saver. This Google Nest doorbell is more expensive than other options out there, yet we can attest that its overall quality and performance without issue is worth the additional cost. Interestingly, it comes with a theft replacement guarantee that if someone takes it, Google will replace it.

To be honest,i liked the older version better. This new one,even with adjusting it,gets lots of false reports. It is also not as user friendly. I would recommend the gen 2 instead.

not happy that door bell doesn't ring now did before with the nest doorbell

Would leave a quarter star if it was an option. This piece of junk replaced a previous generation Nest doorbell that worked well for 5 years. This worthless crap didn’t last 5 months. Will not stay connected to WiFi despite multiple resets.

Terrible product don’t buy it. I had so many issues with this one when trying to install it and even when it was supposed to be working it wasn’t recording videos properly. I just went and bought a ring.

This review is on a Google - Nest Doorbell (wired, 3rd gen). This doorbell looks great with my house colors and has a modern look. It isn't small like a normal doorbell so it will stick out to visitors easily. The button to press is also easily identified from the camera. Installation was about 30 minutes. When you scan the code on the back of the doorbell, it will lead you to instructions to install it. It didn't lead me straight to the instructions though. The instructions say that you need to have a transformer that is strong enough to run the camera. I was in luck and mine was strong enough. You can go ahead and install it. When you power it on, it will show you a blue light, which means you are good or will flash yellow, which means you don't have a strong enough transformer. There is a little puck to install on your chime that will enable it to make its sound. The puck was easy to install. I had to drill new holes to mount the doorbell as it is larger than a standard doorbell but that wasn't hard. They provide some extension mounts that will give you some wiggle room behind it for the wires. I was unable to push the wires back into the frame so this helped hide them. The wires to the doorbell didn't matter which terminals to connect it to, so that made it easier to install. Once power was restored, I scanned the code again. Under Google Home, I added a new device(make sure Bluetooth is on). My Wi-fi SSID is hidden but it let me add other, so I was able to keep it hidden. There was an update to perform which took a few minutes. Then it asks a couple of questions to get it setup, including testing the chime. Then you select which plan you want to use and a few more questions. That's it. Pretty easy. The picture is a little awkward because it has a curve to it but that allows it show very far to the left, right, up and down. So if someone tried to stand out of its view next to your house, they couldn't. Picture quality looks great. You can zoom in if you want but that degrades the picture quality some. What I am impressed with is the speaker on this doorbell. I can talk through it and listen to the visitor crystal clear. They can hear you crystal clear too. You can even play three preconfigured messages like "We'll be right there", "You can leave it", and "No one can come to the door". I have mine connected to Alexa and can ask Alexa to show the doorbell on my TV. It will alert me on my phone when someone is at the door. You can ask Gemini to search your recordings for specific events like who delivered flowers. You can also set up areas which you don't want the camera to pick up movement. This is a great doorbell that I would recommend.
