    Nice video quality, and I like how it integrates seamlessly to the rest of my google home products. Only negative is that I wish the the camera would activate at a longer distance. Seems to only start recording when someone is just a few steps from my door.

      Hi Mike, thanks for sharing your feedback with us about the Nest Doorbell (battery). We’re glad that you like the video quality and the seamless integration with your Google Home devices, but are sorry to hear that the recording feature is less than ideal for you.

      You can adjust the wake-up sensitivity of your camera to decide when to wake up and start recording. If the wake-up sensitivity is low:
      - It decreases the range at which the camera or doorbell can sense activity.
      - It increases the amount of time it takes for the camera or doorbell to wake up once it senses activity.

      Here's how to adjust the wake-up sensitivity in your camera or doorbell's settings:
      - Open the Home app.
      - Touch and hold your device's tile.
      - Tap Settings > Video > Wake-up sensitivity.
      - Choose the High or Low setting.

      If additional help is needed, simply let us know anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Don't listen to complain about the nest app, for a while now they been switching everything to Google home app. It has little bit less resolution than the other nest doorbell but it got better free features the you need it to pay before monthly. Person, package, animal and car detections are now free, it ring with your Google/nest devices. Only con is the size.

    It's meh. Pros: Great video, night sight, and package detection. Cons: Spotty load times on videos. Getting a Person notification and the video not available immediately is unacceptable. It happens occasionally, but it happens at that moment you DON'T want it to fail i.e. you're home alone at the end unit in a hallway and you get a person notification but the video won't load. Do better, Nest and Google. It's 2023. Make this work right every time.

    Google Doorbell camera works really well with the Google home app. The only negative thing I can say about it is the battery life, which is something I researched a few months ago(about 30 days), so I am happy with the purchase.

    As google continues to figure out how to incorporate the nest products into its brand, some things get better and some get worse. The option for a reliable battery powered doorbell cameta is great. This one looks sleek, works well, and is extremely easy to install and setup.

    Almost perfect; just needs 24/7 recording on power

    If it could record 24/7, it'd be perfect. I love the taller field-of-view, which, for my use at least, makes it much more practical for seeing packages delivered, people's heads while they're ringing the doorbell, etc. Only downside is, even on power, it only records events

    Great camera, but I think someone damaged it while I was at work or it fell. Make sure it's on tight. Act as I'd you are a bad delivery person and press hard on the doorbell. Recording doesn't work if lens is damaged

    Already paying dividends. I love the nest aware features as well. It alerts me when someone unfamiliar comes up to the door. We had someone wiggle the door handle in broad daylight a month ago and it caught them on camera and I was able to post it to our neighborhood alert system. The integration with the nest display is fantastic as well. Love that when someone rings the doorbell it rings inside the home.

    After reading through a lot of reviews I leaned that this battery version is also good to wire install. Did some research about voltage and transformer. It turned out my current doorbell has already have the right transformer. Installed the Google doorbell in about 10 minutes. Worked great with my current chime. Also sends notification to Google home app and Google assist speaker. Very happy with the purchase.

    Overall it's a great product. I like this much better than ring because it comes off easier rather than trying to screw off to get to the battery for Ring. Like with all battery powered doorbells, you have to charge it frequently in cold weather.

      Hi Kko0518, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you find Nest Doorbell (battery) great, and we do apologize for some battery issues you’re experiencing.

      Nest Doorbell (battery) is designed for the outdoors with the temperature range of –4°F to 104°F. Battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select. You can extend the battery life of your camera by adjusting video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and using activity zones to monitor specific areas. Here are some typical scenarios:
      - Busy - About 1 month battery life (about 25 - 30 recorded events per day)
      - Typical - About 2.5 months battery life (about 13 - 16 recorded events per day)
      - Quiet - About 6 months battery life (about 2 - 5 recorded events per day)

      If you’re willing to try, we recommend checking the frequency of events (per day) that you get with your Nest Doorbell (Battery). If the short battery life isn’t related to the frequency of events, then we may need to have a closer look at your Nest Doorbell (Battery) and understand what may be causing it.
