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.

Overall, the Google Nest Wi-Fi Video Doorbell is a solid product with great video quality and reliable alerts. However, when charging, be careful—the lens is prone to scratches and smudges, which can reduce visibility. A gentle touch is definitely needed! The main downside is that the Google Home app feels sluggish at times, causing delays in notifications or video playback. Once everything is up and running, it works well, but the app experience could definitely use some optimization. Still, it's a good choice if you’re looking for a sleek, battery-operated doorbell.

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.

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!

It was very easy to install. We love the notifications. Currently is battery operated only wanted to attach the chime originally installed in the house but haven’t successful. I was able to set up notifications through our phones and the Amazon echo show. In general we are satisfied with this product.

Compared to our last doorcam this was much higher in quality. My only biggest complaint is that it requires itself to be wired in to make use of door chimes. You can circumvent this by using a nest hub and having the assistant chime for you, but it'd still be nice to just have a general chime option.

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.

I purchased this for my parents, and it has been fantastic for them. The camera is wonderful, and they get to see the full image of the person at the doorbell and not the fisheye looking image.

Great doorbell and we love all the google stuff however Nest\google is now wanting over $20 a month to keep your data for longer than 24 hrs. Will be changing to Roku for cheaper and with night vision

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).

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.

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!

Great camera, battery life has 4 months left after being fully charged and watching may back door since Oct. Easy to install and give a great wide angle view.

Installation was a breeze but every installation may be different. My installation was a wired one but you may use the battery setup. I kept the default settings on the app and the clarity of the camera is fantastic.
If you are looking for a doorbell this is the one.

The Google Nest Doorbell Battery is a quality product and obviously works great with Google Home. The camera is perfect during both, day and night. Though 'Battery' is part of its name, it can wired using your existing doorbell wires, which is what I did. It comes with three hours of recording time during a 24 hour period, which is enough for most people. The setup is amazingly simple and is easily installed by anyone even with no DIY skills. I recommend this item.

Great device, works well once installed. Has a battery life detector, will alert you about any motion on the doorbell. Has definitely streamlined my delivery and made me feel at ease about packages being dropped off in front of my house. AI is not the smartest and you need to subscribe to see history past 3 months. Sound quality is good, a little bit overblown lighting-wise due to the sun. But otherwise very good. Was not able to connect to previous google home, (so it lives in its own home) but that has not been an issue. I did end up drilling next to the door to install.
