    Takes a bit of time for the cameras to pull up live feed or any activity coming from the camera.

      Hi there, Done. Thanks for giving us feedback about the Nest Doorbell (battery). We hear your concern about watching live videos.

      Make sure that you have the latest version of the Google Home app that can improve not just the live feed, but also the camera playback controls to make it easier to play, pause, and navigate between events from the camera history view. Additionally, you may need to check for any range issue or wireless interference that can affect the overall performance of your doorbell. Sometimes the device may pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away from your router. Check for objects such as mirrors and refrigerators between the doorbell and your router as these items could block the connection. Check this link for more details: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9276282

    I usually like all of Google‘s products, but I have to say this one isn’t that good; if you’re looking for intelligent doorbells, I would go elsewhere. One thing I don’t like is all setup areas for it only to record in those areas, and it still ends up recording people powered in the street when I tell the device not to. I am currently looking for other products to replace this unit that I just got three months ago.  The device will only go back three hours of recording without a subscription, so you’re stuck getting a subscription if you want us to work, but that’s like with most units to expect.

    Doesn’t last more than 2 weeks on the lowest IR setting with only faces and people recognition. And it’s plugged into a 5VA 11V supply.

      Hi ZenC, thanks for giving us your feedback about the Nest Doorbell (Battery), and we’re sorry to hear that it doesn’t last more than 2 weeks despite having the lowest settings. The doorbell can run on battery alone, but if you prefer it wired for continuous power, make sure that your Nest Doorbell (battery) is powered with wires delivering 8 - 24 V AC, and at least 10 VA, 50/60Hz. You can also connect your doorbell to a power outlet with the included or optional power adapter. Please note that the power adapter included with the Nest Doorbell (battery) is not weatherproof and not intended for outdoor use. Connecting to continuous power will keep the battery charged. You can view the technical specifications and requirements for Nest doorbell here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9259110

      We’re always here to help. Visit us at the following link for questions or any support concerns you may have: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Purchased right at launch. Best buy installed (good job). However, first time we tried to remove unit to recharge battery, the unit fell apart. Best Buy not supporting because under warranty, but can't get Google to respond to warranty email request (3x) and in chat told me best buy would support. so biggest waste of money ever.
