    A solid piece of equipment and works well. The set up through Google Home/Nest was super easy (once you work through the Nest stuff). Only draw back has to do with the plate to put it on the wall... we ended up doing two trips to Home Depot to get a blank plate to make it work right. Our house is older (84) and the door bell plate was not industry standard.

    The Nest video doorbell is so amazing. We had another brand that used batteries and when I would have to replace them, it would never go back together again and became worthless. The Nest has been fantastic and gives a much better image.

    It has been my favorite addition to my smart home/home security. If you have a Google home hub also it works great for kids or anyone at home, automatically shows your on hub and phone when it detects motion or when doorbell is pressed. Also you can talk or select preselected dialog for someone at the door. Great camera too

    Best device on the market - way better than Ring. Love the package detection/dropoff and familiar face recognition. Definitely worth subscribing to Nest Aware to maximize the value of the doorbell. Only thing to watch out for is the silly relic that is Nest Connect - it can be a complete pain to pair.

    The camera was easy to install after I watched the setup video on the app. The camera does a good job of picking up anything that moves outside. The only thing that I wish was better is when I try to talk to someone, it could be better. Sometimes what you are saying doesn’t go through the mic.

    Upgraded fro the Ring v1. Easy to install . Don’t really need to install the doorbell ring piece if you own any google hub, speaker or chrome cast. The door bell announces itself on all of these devices . If google had a neighborhood app feature like the ring does I would’ve given this product 5 stars.

    We had a Ring on our last house and it work ok most of the time, but it usually took a while to open the app/image feed even though our internet speeds were very fast (fiber) and WiFi was max strength. This one however works EXCELLENT with midrange WiFi that it gets and setup was a breeze. Image is clear and loads quickly.

    Love this doorbell! My husband installed it for us over the weekend and it's perfect. We were out and someone came to the door and we were able to talk through to them that we'd be home in just a minute. Voice on both ends is completely clear and the video works great too.

    Was easy to install. My wife and I did it ourselves. The app interface works well. We already had 2 Nest Thermostats. It integrated easily with Google and our Pixel 3 XLs. My only gripe is you have to pay for the Nest Aware. You get a 30 day free trial. You still get alerts, but Aware provides zones, facial recognition and history.

    Replaced my old typical door bell with nest smart doorbell and i've been using this for about a month now. Boy what a difference it makes!!! It tells you everything. It catches every movements. It also tells you when package arrives. Also, you can talk through it. Couldn't be happier with this purchase.

    My favorite doorbell, I am invested in the Google Ecosystem and this doorbell is a must! When paired with the Nest hubs you get notifications and can see who is at your door instantly. Google's new plan that allows 60 days of recorded footage on all cameras for one price is also great.

    Just recently got it. Installing it was a little bit difficult as far as making the doorbell actually ring inside the house. The camera works pretty well. Sometimes there notification is delayed when leaving the house, but it seems to work pretty quick when someone coming up.

    This is my second Nest product. I have used an outdoor camera for a few years and love it. I just added the Doorbell camera. It was so easy to hook up. Basically unhooked the old doorbell button and installed this one. The chime was easy to hook up too. The whole process from start to finish took 15 minutes. Video and Audio are awesome!!

    good product, clunky setup process

    I have had both Ring and Arlo doorbells. I finally decided to spend the extra money and upgrade to the Nest doorbell because of the integration with my other Google/Nest products, especially the hubs. Despite having a whole Google ecosystem already (Nest thermostat, hubs, speakers, mesh wifi) the setup process for the doorbell was very frustrating. The Nest app insisted on making the doorbell try to create a "Nest network" with my thermostat but kept erroring out at that step, with no option to skip it. The doorbell setup finally completed after I removed my thermostat from the app, but now I have to set the thermostat up again. I was surprised to learn that I had to install a part on the wired chime inside my house, but like that I can now turn the chime off (no more dog barking at the doorbell) and rely on my Nest Hubs to announce that someone is at the door. The video quality is great and I like that the camera is "always on". I look forward to the Nest app being merged with the Google Home app so I can do everything in one place, but now that the installation headache is over I'm happy with this product.
