Customer Ratings & Reviews

Camera was easy to install and directions walk you through even providing a video for you to watch to ensure that you know exactly what to do. Has great audio and the facial recognition feature is one of the coolest things I have seen in a while, haven't had any issues with it other than my phone won't show the mini video clips when it recognizes someone at the door. However, it does work on my wife's phone so I am chalking that up to operator error on my part or the phone itself possibly not updating properly. Would recommend to anyone interested in getting a smart doorbell, very excellent product, and well worth the money.

We love the Google Nest Hello doorbell camera. We had a Nest Hello when we lived in Maryland and loved it. We moved to Georgia and the builder installed another brand’s doorbell camera and it didn’t measure up to the Nest Hello. We were happy with our prior Nest Hello, so we purchased a new Google Nest Hello and could not be happier. The quality is excellent. The responsiveness is excellent. The Nest mobile app is user friendly, and the unit itself was easy to install. I recommend this product to anyone who wants to install a doorbell camera. You won’t be disappointed.

Day 1 Review - I saw this product on sale, and bundled it with Nest Hub as well to save more. What's in the box - You get everything in the box to be able to install the doorbell by yourself. Installation instructions via nest app are very clear. It took about 30-40mins for me install the doorbell which includes adding the chime to existing wall mounted doorbell chime. So far the video quality, and alerts timing are good. Product Overall is good.

This is my first smart home device and I'm amazed at how well it works. It definitely exceeds my expectations. It is a little expensive but well worth it if you're looking for home security. The facial recognition software reminds me of a sci-fi movie. It works that well! It allows me to put names to faces and I get alerted whenever a friend or family member is at the door. Works well with the Google mini speaker and I always get alerted on my phone. I highly recommend getting the best aware subscription. You'll thank yourself.

Works well. I like the wide angle view on the camera color night vision is good also

Only got this because the Ring cam I needed was all sold out. Ended up liking it way more than I thought I would after install. Wired up perfectly to my old school doorbell mechanism, as well as synced to my phones and google home minis no problem. Uses the same app as my thermostat and records excellent video. Ended up paying the yearly subscription to have the 30 days of saved video available. So far, havent had any issues with the unit.

Fairly easy to set up for basic operation. Needs a little more information included for setting up and managing advanced features on aware such as custom zones and face detection. A quick search on google easily reveals the not so intuitive answers. Would be nice if they had a way to adjust the motion detection sensitivity. Alight breeze blows leaves around causing an event. Be aware of mounting location. A recessed location limits field of view. I had to make my own mount to bring hello flush with my stonework so there was no blind spot. Overall, very satisfied so far.

I bought this as a gift for my parents. Installed it myself easily, and they have been very happy with it. My complaint is more with Google and the way they have messed up Nest services. After I installed this I went to set it up on my parents Nest account and it asked me to switch them over to using a Google account. I did so not realizing that once I did that I would no longer be able to use the Nest App on AppleTV. I only found out afterward, and their is no way to switch back. Google still hasn’t fixed the AppleTV app to work and it has been an issue for a couple of years now. If they aren’t going to fix that maybe they could just add HomeKit support?

We’ve had this camera for almost a month now. So far we like it a lot better than the previous brand of cameras we had before. The only issue we had was originally our WiFi didn’t reach the camera very well so we had to get a new router but now have no issues. Currently I have the free trial of their services so I cannot speak to how it works without a subscription. The camera does recognize faces and packages which is pretty awesome. The clarity is really good as well. Very simple setup too! In the future we will purchase more google cameras!

I installed this one because i was leaving the county to the Dominican Republic and read reviews that it was a good product. after installing only took 15 minutes this was the best investment i could have. its 24/7 recording five days of playback if you want more you pay more but i like the 5 i have a lorex nvr 16 channel 4k system and wanted to be able to speak with who is at the door and it pairs with my google homes to tell me who pushes the doorbell if they have been previously at my door with face recognition. i have it paired with my lock so if it recognizes my kids, wife, or me it opens the lock on the door for them. sweet.

This doorbell camera is very user friendly in set up. It has good quality picture and audio and works well with Google Home Hub. The facial recognition is nice, but you have to pay the $5 monthly fee to have access to it.

So I recently just purchased my home and really wanted to have some type of surveillance without paying the huge security company prices. I love Google products so I bought the nest doorbell. It's super easy to set up and use. I can see everything that is happening at my doorway night and day. I really love the talk feature while you're away, because I've had sales people come to my door while I'm gone and I can just talk through the doorbell and tell them to leave. Also I love keeping an eye on my packages when I get them delivered to the front door. Definitely buy this!

I procrastinated as I expected installation to be a pain but was pleasantly surprised how easy it was. Videos are clear and it works well at night as well.

Easy to set up. Did the wiring, no problem. It is really simple, just follow the instructions. No need to hire a technician, save yourself $100-200 if you look up videos on YouTube!

The doorbell was easy to install and the included wedge worked well to change the camera angle. The camera has a good field of view and provides clear video. The setup was easy. We just followed the directions in the Nest application. We purchased a power supply since we were not replacing an existing doorbell. Note that it works with 16-24 VAC. We installed both front and back door and seamlessly interfaces them to three Google Next Hubs to display the video since we are using the system at a preschool.

Would recommend this product to anyone. Picture is so clear, even in Night mode. Love being able to see and talk to who is at my door without having to actually answer it. The facial recognition is so neat! We didn’t have a pre existing doorbell, so we had to wire it this one in from scratch. Luckily my husband is an electrician so we didn’t have to pay a for professional installation; but if you do not have an electrician you trust and no pre existing doorbell wiring you will need to pay extra for the installation. Extremely great product.

My Ring doorbell pro died a few weeks ago after just one year. I decided to try something new. If you are in the marker for a video cam doorbell, this is the one to get. I had no idea the Ring doorbell was such low quality compare to the sharp video of this one. Also I have no WiFi signal problems with one.. it’s always connected. The nest hello app is much easier to use. I would recommend the google nest hello doorbell over the Ring doorbell to anyone.

The camera quality is great and not hard to set up. I feel more at ease knowing we have a secure system that alerts us when someone approaches our home.

So this thing is a complete 180 from Ring Doorbells. My doorbell was trash and it kept disconnecting from the wifi over and over again, along with the fact that after I ended the Ring subscription it began having so many issues with it, I ended up just throwing the Ring camera away. I almost went back to regular doorbells, but I saw this was on sale. I gotta say, this camera is amazing and has way more controls given to the user than ring did. All google items are top notch, but this one is amazing and easy to set up.

Previously had the ring doorbell 2 and pro. Ran into connectivity issues with the ring. Went through the trouble shoot process with ring and my internet company. Upgraded service and got extenders. No luck. The ring had no problems with friends of mine but others had similar issues. Nest is a great option. Connectivity is great. The app for the phone is good. The notifications aren't like the ring. You can't specify boundaries yet. Motion detection is hit or miss. It'll pick up change in light. Sound NOTIFICATION is good option. Recording is good with a cloud feature. Design is smaller than ring and install similar to ring. Talking has a delay like the ring. Notification is about a 10 second delay from the actual event. Otherwise good camera to give you a view of the door.
