    The doorbell ring doesn’t sound if my google home is playing music. The ring sound is imperceptible if I’m away from my phone.

    Easy installation. Camera has a wide view of the porch so you can easily see a large section of the space in front of the camera. Integration with existing google products allow a “doorbell” to be heard .

    Super difficult to install and I'm pretty handy. I ended up paying $100 to have it installed. It was installed wired up. Despite that fact, the battery drained after a week. The little tool to "just pop it off" the bracket doesn't do anything. I watched a number of YouTube videos on how to get that thing off the side of my house. Nada. You can't take it off. Hence you can't charge it either. Nor can you take it off the wall without basting it out of the stucco. Thank God the installation was warrantied, but now I have an other appointment to wait for, so they can come and fix it. I just want them to take it off so I can return this piece of crap. There are many cheaper options out there, don 't waste your money! I thought this system was top of the line and easy to use. Yeah, not so much. I've had two different systems beforehand and this is by far the worst.

      Hi GlobeTrotter, we truly appreciate your feedback on Nest Doorbell (Battery), and it’s unfortunate to learn of your difficult experience with the installation, and with removing it from the wall to charge it despite being wired.

      To remove the doorbell from the base, aside from using the release tool included in the box, you can also use a flathead screwdriver into the hole at the top of the doorbell, then pull the doorbell up and away from the wall.

      We understand that you want to take it off so you can return it. But if you're willing to give us a chance to investigate why the battery drained despite having it wired, visit us anytime at the following link and we’ll do our best to help improve your experience: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    This product worked as we had hoped it would. Works exactly as I had hoped. We need to charge it about once a month or so but it full charges in a few hours and isn’t a problem.

    We love this new version of the Google Neat Doorbell. It has so many cool functions but we live in IL and due to recent legislature, the facial recognition cannot be used at this time. What a dumb law.

    Video quality is pretty good, and easy to set up. The bad is the battery would need recharged every couple days. Then after a couple weeks it just completely stopped working all together.

      Hi there, thanks for sharing a review to let us know of your experience with using the Nest Doorbell (Battery), and we’re sorry to hear that it completely stopped working altogether after a couple of weeks. You may consider connecting your doorbell to a power outlet with the included or optional power adapter. The power adapter included with the Nest Doorbell (battery) is not weatherproof and not intended for outdoor use. You can also connect your Nest doorbell to the doorbell system wires if you have one. Connecting to continuous power will keep the battery charged.

      Our dedicated team can help and guide you with further isolation and troubleshooting. Please contact us anytime here and we’ll definitely do our best to provide a better experience for you: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
