Customer Ratings & Reviews

My husband easily installed the Nest doorbell and I love it. We can easily see who is at the door, and talk to them using the app. It has a clear picture during the day and black and white at night. We bought it on Black Friday, so we got a good discount.

Works great, battery is a little shorter durning winter.

I’m glad we waited for this doorbell cam. Great view! Great clarify! Great sound quality in both ends. Love the features and facial recognition is on point. Love the looks, more elegant vs a rectangular competitor. Extremely easy to install.

no issues easy install and very simple to set up. works great with existing door bell. the quality is very good and the video quality is very good even at night. I currently have all NEST products and I believe they were recently purchased by Google so things should only get better. Only downside is the subscription fee.

I have been in the Nest ecosystem for a few months with their thermostat and added the camera. Google Nest had the package deal at Best Buy which offered the Google Nest hub free with the purchase of the Nest doorbell. The installation was fairly simple since the Nest doorbell is powered through the doorbell wiring. I also got the Nest Aware free trial for 30 days, Setup was relatively easy, and the only difficult part is figuring the transformer rating on the chime device because the text was difficult to read. Connecting the doorbell camera to my WiFi was easy as I already had the Nest thermostat and used the Nest app. I can stream the camera to a computer, my phone, and my Google Nest hub, I turned off the motion notifications as it picked up every car that drove by. Overall the product seems to work well and I am very satisfied with the purchase.

The camera provides a great image. It is easy to install. Although it is a little expensive, it is definitely worth the money. The cold weather of MN/ND had no impact on it. It works great.

Produces a crisp, clean 1080 picture, the night time video is fine as well. I receive alerts for motion, sound, and additional alerts when a person is recognized. So far, it is as, as advertised. One caveat, if you do decide to watch a lot of video make sure you have a fully charged phone, it will run down a battery quickly.

Really useful and integrated into google home very well. Everything is easy and flexible. Installation is relatively easy. I think it is just a bit expensive compared to others of the same vein. I wanted to keep everything Google-branded but maybe I am silly.

Excellent video quality. Motion activation zones work correctly, unlike the Ring that trigger when a leaf blows or a bird flies by. Also really like the seamless integration with the google home hub. It's great to have a video and alert pop up on the google home hubs instantly. Facial recognition is also great.

Pretty easy setup, even if you're not handy. Works great. If you have a low power issue during initial setup, try ringing the bell once; that did it for me. Camera looks different and the facial recognition works pretty good.

I purchased this after purchasing 4 Nest outdoor cameras. The cameras worked so well I figured the Nest doorbell was the next needed item for our home. Boy was I right!! We live in an extremely cold climate. My neighbor has a ring doorbell and he says it shuts off at -5F. We have seen the temperature drop to -36F this winter. So far, all of our Nest cameras have remained operational. The options are great as well. You can set different areas on the screen. It tells the difference between a person and a car. It can also identify when a package is delivered. The fact that I can answer the door while I’m not at home is great as well. Not to mention, it has been a deterrent. We had a mysterious person snooping around our property. When they noticed our doorbell camera, they left. Overall: 5 stars

Google Hello Doorbell is an amazing doorbell for doors that have a small wedge and a small fit. Everything about the doorbell works as intended, able view the camera in HD quality, works well with the nightvision that it came with, super easy to install.

The Nest Hello doorbell camera is amazing. I have my home set up around Google Home, and this is a great add on. The only thing is to get the most out of it you have to pay monthly or yearly for Nest Aware, which starts at $5 a month and I don’t think that is too bad for what you get from it. When someone rings the doorbell google will announce somebody is at the door, but with nest aware it has face recognition and if it recognizes the person ringing the bell it will say, “name” is at the front door. If you have a google home hub the video stream can also pop up automatically, and you have the option to choose a pre-programmed response, or even talk to whoever is at the door. The nest app is also very simple to use, and you can go through and see a snapshot of who has been at your door, or if you have nest aware you can even watch the video from when your doorbell was rang, and their cheapest plan lets you go back 5 days, and if you want to be able to go further back you can buy a bigger plan. Overall I think this is an incredible product and definitely worth purchasing.

This was very easy to install. Love the video quality and features. It reports on events such as movement and has recorded a number of things - I now know when the paper is delivered in the wee hours of the morning. Love the look back 5 days feature - will probably subscribe when trial is over. Great for security.

My ring door camera failed, it started giving me alerts multiple times with no picture. So after some aggravation I couldnt take it anymore and spend some money on this Hello camera. It works amazing, so crisp, so easy to set up and especially the nighttime mode looks great. I love the feature of recognizing faces and also the fact they provide a 30degree attachment initially for angling the camera. I do not like that it did not work with my home doorbell (its an old doorbell chime box). Meaning it connected just fine but the bell is not strong enough to make the sound. So the way around it is to use a google mini as the doorbell chime. It also works with my alexa show in showing me what live views but cant get it to "sound" the doorbell when someone presses it on the Alexa products. No matter it still is #1 doorbell camera as far as I am concerned and very happy with it.

So far I am loving it. It lets me know when someone is at the door, when packages are delivered or picked up, it recognizes familiar faces. It was fairly easy to install. There is a great video directly on your phone with the setup. Just follow it and the questions it asks and you can install it in no time. There are seasonal themes too for the doorbell chime on the doorbell. It's cute. I got it $80 off for Black Friday. I also bought the Nest Hub which is in my kitchen which is cool. I have my google photos scrolling so it's like a photo frame too, on the hub. I can just say "hey Google, show me my doorbell" and it brings up the live feed. I got that one for half price for Black Friday. Hoping both last me a long time.

Great smart doorbell. It worked with my original doorbell power wire and has been a nice product to have. Everyone needs a smart doorbell these days and this one is pretty great!

I really love the new Nest Hello Doorbell. Installation was a breeze! The hardest part, which really wasn't that hard, is that I needed to change my doorbell transformer. My old transformer was rated at 16V 10VA which didn't work. I bought a 16V 30VA and it worked perfectly so definitely make sure all of your wiring and your doorbell transformer meets the minimum requirements. Set-up was very easy through the Nest app. It walked me through all the steps from start to finish which made it super easy to install. Since having the doorbell over the last week it's been great. It's very sensitive so it picks up the motion of cars driving down the street. I need to change the zones so that it picks up a little closer of a distance. If I'm away from home it picks up pretty quickly if there is motion or someone at my house and rings the doorbell to alert me. The picture quality is great as well as the sound quality. I never had a Ring doorbell to compare but I can say that this one is very solid.

You can be home all the time even when you're not the with Nest Hello smart doorbell. I had another smart doorbell (Skybell mini) and this blows that away. The video quality is outstanding, the latency is minimal, sound quality is good, and notifications come through consistently. I'm still tweaking my notification settings so I don't get too many, but the Nest Hello can notify you as it detects every sound, movement etc. if you like. (The birds and the bees set it off as they're doing their thing.) It's also easy to install yourself if you have a newer home; it took me about 1-1/2 hours but I walked away a couple of times to address emergent stuff and I looked at the You Tube video two times during installation. You get the most benefit from it if you subscribe to Nest Aware. Yes it's pricier than certain Ring plans but certain features are better. Overall, no complaints! I wish I had gotten it sooner.

That is the first one I have ever had, so I can't ccompare it with another one. But, I am satisfied with the image quality and the sound. In real time the video quality is very good but when watching the past videos it is a bit slow sometimes.
