Great device..A little more instruction for wiring
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality of this device is exceptional and the installation was easy for the battery operatedversion. We tried to hook it up to the existing doorbell and the instructions for that could be a little clearer. Overall I am happy with this device. You only get about 2 hours to see an event and save it if you do not sign up for the subscription.

Good video, battery drains fast
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good quality video with sound. Works great with Google home app. I wouldn’t recommend the battery version if the are is high traffic it will deplete the battery faster and needing charged more often. Good purchase overall.

Posted .Hi Brice, thanks for sharing your feedback with us about the Nest Doorbell (battery), and we’re sorry to learn that the battery version has not been ideal for your needs.
If your doorbell is detecting a lot of activities, 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. This link might be helpful: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/10901611
If you have to charge the battery more often than you should, you may consider connecting your doorbell to a power outlet with the included or optional power adapter that will keep the battery charged. Please note that the power adapter for Nest doorbell is not weatherproof and not intended for outdoor use.
If you're willing, we can help you check for other reasons why the battery needs to be recharged more often. We encourage you to visit us whenever you have time for troubleshooting guidance: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Sigh
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Smh. I have multiple Nest IQ outdoor cams as well as the first gen outdoor cams. I love those cams and the Nest App. I also have Arlo cams which are good but I prefer Nest cams because of the continuous recording and the Nest App. I also have multiple Nest smoke detectors and Nest Protect with sensors all over. A great setup. Now, I bought this doorbell knowing it wouldn't record 24/7. Fine. However, the fact that it doesn't work with the Nest app, and that you have to use Google Home, is really irritating. Google home is terrible in comparison. It's an ugly app, layout is terrible and it doesn't allow you to anything wi the your older Nest products except for live view. You still control all the older cams with the Nest App. On a basic level they could have at least integrated Google Home with the older devices so it is fully functional. It is obnoxious that they did this. That said, The doorbell quality is good... Really good and it looks great. However, not have 24/7 video recording is problematic because it misses events. I've had deliveries that didn't get recorded with sensitivity set to high. I may return for the older one but he old one is missing the smart features. I feel like everything with Nest/Google is half done. One one hand it looks great, hardware is great but app, firmware and everything else is a mess. Thought I found the perfect setup with all my Nest devices but they've fragmented their own products like two different security cam companies. Ugh.

Great doorbell cam

Top tier doorbell
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This doorbell by google is my favorite google nest product. The video and sound quality is super clear. Making two way conversations a breeze. You can use this for surveillance so it adds a whole new layer. It even recognizes faces, if you pay for the premium service. This doorbell is top tier and light years better than the Ring we replaced with this.

Best doorbell cam for google assistant users
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My one complaint about the battery version is you can't record 24/7 like the hardwire version can, even if you hardwire the battery version. Otherwise, its an excellent doorbell cam. Clear video, response time in the app is great, and the wifi outage/local recording feature is perfect.

Doorbell Cam

Battery life isn’t quite as expected (but still good). I receive messages that the device may not be working properly because of the temperature.

Posted .Hello MusicLover, thanks for sharing your feedback with us, and we’re glad that you find the picture quality of the Nest Doorbell (battery) awesome. We’re sorry to hear that the battery life has not exceeded your expectations.
If you’ve connected your Nest Doorbell (battery) to your existing doorbell wiring, the wires don’t directly power the doorbell. Instead, the battery is trickle charged by the power that comes through the wires, and the doorbell runs off the battery charge. At temperatures between -4°F (-20°C) and 32°F (0°C), the doorbell can continue to work, but the battery will drain because it can’t be charged. If the battery drains completely, the doorbell will shut down, and you’ll need to bring it inside to be charged. So if the temperature is below 32°F (0°C) and the battery is low, bring it inside to a warm place, preferably at room temperature. The battery can start to charge slowly once its temperature rises past 32°F (0°C). It will charge faster when it warms up.
Your feedback counts as we’re always on the lookout for opportunities to improve our products and services. And if you run into any other concerns around the features or performance of the doorbell, contact us anytime here so we can help:: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Definitely worth it!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the battery version so that if I want to remove it, it's not too difficult and won't have to mess with wiring. Plus, if it ever stopped working I still have my normal doorbell. Anyways, aside from that, I love being notified of when my packages arrive at my door. You can set it to where it only covers your porch area. I say that because it CAN see out to the street. So far it's given me peace of mind and added security knowing I can see what's going on outside my front door without actually going up to the door. With my house there's an annoying side window where folks could peek in if they wanted. Now with this doorbell I don't have to worry about that. The google home app works well with this. Overall it's pretty straightforward and to the point. I chose this over the blink/ring products from amazon because those just seem cheaply made with poor quality control. These google products are well-made and google ensures they are made to standard.

Google Nest Battery Doorbell
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this doorbell to replace another that died on me after 3 years. It works well, its easy to set up, and having the option to wire it as well as use the battery is nice. It seems like it should last longer than 3 years though.

Factory reset problems
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall pretty easy setup, good battery life, and video quality. Notifications are a bit delayed. The biggest problem is when trying to configure setup with a new wifi network, the doorbell is unable to connect despite performing a factory reset. I'll have to purchase a new doorbell after 2.5 years of owning it.

Posted .Thanks for reaching out about your Nest Doorbell (Battery). While we’re glad you enjoyed the battery life and video quality, we’re sorry you're running into issues reconnecting it after a factory reset — that is definitely out of the ordinary. Once you factory reset the device, you’ll need to remove it from the Google Home app. Here’s how to do it:
1. Open the app > tap Settings > Remove device > Confirm.
