Wonderful doorbell! Big improvement over the 1st generation model. I can finally hear the doorbell ring anywhere in the house and can easily see and speak to visitors. Technician was great! Thanks!

By itself the doorbell is an improvement to a first gen nest doorbell. The camera is clearer and zoom is improved. The picture quality is 2k as opposed to 1080p on the first generation, but the 3rd gen also gives you a very distinct fisheye effect that wasn’t there with the first generation. The new 3rd gen. also has a chime connector puck only requiring 2 wires compared to 1st generations 4, so the wiring is easier at the chime box. I consider the mount to the outside wall more difficult than the first generation, possibly requiring a slight location change or shimming from where the first gen. was mounted. Honestly I was quite happy with the original 1st generation Nest Hello, but Of course Google has decided to obsolete the original Nest app in favor of Google Home, which still seems a little clunky and not as polished as Nest was. Over time with few more updates the 3rd gen will probably become very well integrated with today’s smart home, but I would not reward Google by purchasing a 4th or 5th generation anytime soon, after all it’s just a doorbell with a camera. It doesn’t require a retina scanner or heart rate monitor. Polish the app and reprieve your customers from the planned obsolescence.

Great outdoor camera! The video quality is super clear, even at night, and the motion alerts are always accurate. Setup took just a few minutes and it’s been reliable in all weather. Definitely gives me peace of mind knowing my home is always monitored.

Upgraded from a first gen. The field of view on the 3rd gen is much wider. I was not expecting such an upgrade. If you are on the fence, go for it.

This is much better than a Ring doorbell. I recently has a ring doorbell that pooch due to not wanting to connect to my internet. I thought it was my internet until I read online about the problems. Went with the google doorbell. Not only its much nicer and slim to see next to my door it works like a charm.

This best doorbell is amazing.its perfect. Mom in law has a eufy. It’s good too, but google just integrates with google home. It doesn’t intrude with sounds, but sends pop ups. We can make automations. It has AI so it can discern things. We have already benefitted I. Just a few weeks. Installation was easy for me. If you can use a screwdriver and a drill you can do this. Works great if you have a doorbell already in place with a transformer. The app walks you through identifying it. But almost all doorbells have a transformer behind the box inside the house. They just want us to double check the type. That’s the most doubtful part.

This is a replacement Nest Door Bell. I enjoyed having The Nest installed when we moved to my current house. The old door bell gave up the ghost but the video was great and notifications when somebody was delivering a package was great.

I found this item perfect for knowing who is ringing the bell and answer even when we are vacationing.

3rd gen Nest doorbell is definitely an update over 2nd gen. Better resolution and AI enhancements. Would highly recommend. But the best part is that the install is identical to the 2nd gen unit. You can reuse 2nd gen wall plates and you are set.

Easy to install and works great, however there should be information provided that you need to up the transformer to your doorbell in order for it to work properly

The camera works great. It was easy to substitute the previous one. We had the 1st gen of Google Nest Doorbell. The downside is that the Nest app does not support this new version, so we need to use two apps. One to manage our lock and thermostat, and another one, the Google Home app, to see the camera. Other than that, no complaints.

i used first gen nest doorbell, and have to say this is a great step up! also easy to install by replacing the original.

This camera works great! Very high quality, easy to set up, and the Gemini early access is working great so far as well. If you have an older home, you very well need to upgrade your doorbell transformer though.

Very easy to install and program to the Google App. I had one issue that was not the fault of the Doorbell - some weird incompatibility with the electronic doorbell chime in the house. Once I changed it out, all worked as expected. One other consideration, that would be with any similar device no matter the make; the brick facing around the door frame caused the camera view, which is about 150 degrees, to be partially blocked. I wanted a full view and not just the person at the door. Finding an extension is not difficult, but it took about a week to secure.

I had the original Nest Doorbell and it finally failed. I bought this one, and what a difference. The video is wider and crisper. You can really tell they put the best camera on this version. I would highly recommend.

Incredible camera. This is my first smart doorbell and i love everything about it. The packaging was beautiful and the simplicity of the install instructions was amazing. I am pleased to be using Google products.

Great quality love that it connects to my nest hub. Cheaper and better than Vivant for sure, Happy with my purchase.

I love my Google - Nest doorbell 3rd gen! It gives me comfort knowing I can see who is at the door at all times or if someone is just walking around my home. I love that it alerts me on the app. It works great! Highly recommend.

Love the doorbell camera! Installed 3 of them around our cabin to keep an eye on who is coming and going. I have a older nest doorbell camera installed at our house and it still works great.

Very happy with this purchase so far. Clear picture and sound. Looking to upgrade the rest of our security system with ring.
