    Works get, I travel for work a lot and just like to see what’s going on while I’m away. I enjoy the simplicity of use and how well it sync’s up with my other google devices. The battery life on this thing is solid, since I live in an apartment complex I don’t get a doorbell but this paired with the no drill mount has taken care of that issue. The night vision camera is great and when people ring the doorbell my nest hub and Google mini let me know if a friend or someone I don’t know is at the door. I say all this to say , if you are looking for an inexpensive way to monitor your home you really can’t got wrong with this doorbell very great bang for your buck purchase.

    Easy to Install and Operate

    The Nest device is easy to install. The battery lasts a very long time before we need to recharge it. The App UI is nice and easy to understand. You get notifications for activity near your door. It's definitely worth setting up specific activity zones so that you don't get notifications for busy travel areas that don't require your attention. The only negative is that to get the most out of it, it requires a subscription.

    It is a very nice "gadget" to have at home. It shows who's coming to the door in a very clear and timely fashion. Notifications are clear. So far hasn't given us any problem. Easy to install (we hired a company who did it for us), compatible with our existing chime bell. Highly recommended!

    I really like the wireless feature. I dont like that it has to be recharged so frequently and we dont have a lot of foot traffic in front of it. It doesnt even last a month. I wish it was possible to easily make it wired. It does have great quality pictures and sound. I would recommend only if wired.

    Does it’s basic job, not reliable for pet owners.

    I bought this because I could add it to my Google Hub. It does its job- acceptable battery life, good video and sound quality- but I’m still disappointed. The camera doesn’t always capture motions from animals at night. I’ve tried fixing the settings to increase sensitivity and followed the troubleshooting advice from Google. Searched Reddit for any nerd advice too (I appreciate you, people of Reddit), and nothing I’ve done has fixed that issue. I’m convinced the issue stems from the hardware. So if you’re wanting to keep an eye on your pets at night or see the wildlife that visits your property, this isn’t the product for you. I was expecting more from a Google product.

    This is a great addition to the Google Nest products. I had broken the wiring on my backdoor doorbell so I couldn't use a wired doorbell. I have a wired Google Nest front doorbell which I love so I got this one when they came out with the battery powered doorbell. I love it too. It just sends me a notification if it sees someone out there, you can even set it for pets. I have neighbor dogs that like to come and play so that is cool too. It lets you know if the person has a package as well. It is super easy to install and has great instructions. It connected to my existing Home app so easily. It looks nice, has a great picture and the battery stays charged for months.

    Easy videos to set up. Sleek design that matches the aesthetic of our home. Feels like a quality product vs a cheap plastic. Camera quality is noticeably better than previous model.

    Great doorbell for the price! installed it on my 83 year old house that is not wired for an actual doorbell haha. Installation was easy, and the google home app walked you through the entire process. images are bright and detailed, and audio is crisp and clear. Highly recommend for anyone that is already using google home products. Battery life so far is great!

    This camera is great. As temperatures drop not sure how it will perform / battery life. I love the notifcations and many features. I do wish there was a plastic cover to make it more weather proof because this doesn't sit under an over hang to stay dry.

    I bought this Nest to replace my ring doorbell and i have not been disappointed. It works extremely well and the video is high quality. It is easy to control and connect to your Nest with the home app and works great. Only bad thing i have to say is the angle mount that comes with it does not sit the unit correctly at the angle i want. Other then that i would highly recommend this one over the Ring any day.

    This doorbell has met all my needs. My home doesn't have wires run for a doorbell, so I was looking for a battery powered video doorbell. The video and two way sound quality is good and the notifications are also good. I have noticed that not all motion triggers and alert, but I'm okay with that; I'm happy to finally have functioning doorbells with videos. It has been cold since installing these. When the temperature is below -4°F, they do turn off until it warms up above that temperature again. Installation was really easy with a just a drill and some bits (definitely DIY friendly).

    Battery life is really good. I've had it for about 3 weeks in an apartment complex so I get at least 20 notifications per day and its currently at 67%. Instructions say it only takes 5 hours to fully charge. Image is good and the app is very user friendly.

    Not a door bell

    Was extremely disappointed. I swear by Nest products but this is wireless doorbell overlooked three major functions that are so basic NOONE would have thought google world developed a product that without them. First, the wireless version is not compatible with ANY chime. So you can't hear anyone ringing your doorbell inside the house?! Second, the battery can't withstand temps below freezing. Sooooo the doorbell can't go outside in the winter. Third, it's funny that Nest was forced to put their name on this product because Google owns them. However, you can't control or view this product on the Nest app like the rest Nest products. Nest app is FAR better than Google Home because it much more user friendly and doesn't have the delays in connecting to the cameras like like Google does. Hopefully the wired version doesn't have these problems. WHICH,IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT, SHOULDN'T MAKE SENSE!!! Don't get tricked in installing this product. Now i have to go through the hassle of thanking this "doorbell" camera down and returning it. The one good thing is the camera is far better than Ring.

    • Brand response from Nest Support
      Posted .

      Hi there, aegarden101 Thanks for sharing your feedback about the Nest Doorbell (battery). We understand your disappointment and appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention.

      While the Nest doorbell can replace most wired doorbells, there are some cases where the doorbell system either doesn't give enough power or gives too much power. We're continuously working to improve compatibility and are exploring solutions for future iterations. Meanwhile, we suggest checking that your current doorbell can be replaced by the Nest doorbell here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9247132

      As for the battery performance in cold weather, the Nest Doorbell (battery) has an outside operating temperature range of -20°C to 40°C (-4°F to 104°F). Using the device above or below the temperature range can cause performance issues. At temperatures below freezing, the lithium-ion battery in your Google Nest doorbell won’t be able to charge. Many devices, including popular models of doorbell cameras and cell phones, use lithium-ion batteries for their high power and long life, but these batteries are also affected by temperatures below freezing. You need to bring it inside to a warm place, preferably at room temperature so the battery can start to charge slowly once its temperature rises past 32°F (0°C). It will charge faster when it warms up.

      Lastly, we understand that having the ability to manage and control the doorbell through the Nest app can be ideal for you. However, we're focusing on making the Google Home app the central hub for all your Nest and smart home devices with Google Assistant. Other benefits of using the Home app includes the following:
      - Automatic security protections such as Suspicious activity detection, 2-Step Verification and Security Checkup.
      - Your Google Nest devices and services will work together.
      - One account to sign into both the Nest and Google Home apps.
      - Your homes and home members will be aligned across the Nest and Google Home apps.

      If you need help with using the doorbell in the Home app effectively, let us know by visiting us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Great camera, easy to use! 24/7 footage up to 30 days history. Only issues I have is currently I cannot add to nest app only through google home, I understand that is due to Google buying nest. Just cant eait for google to finish updating app to allow more features.
