Doorbell
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great picture with very good connections to my phone when I’m away
I would recommend this to a friend Very Cool Doorbell
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Finally: A battery-powered Nest Doorbell! I use the Google / Nest ecosystem broadly and I like how I get notifications on my phone or my Nest Hubs when someone rings the bell. I also get security notifications when someone (or something) passes by the door at night, e.g. the 12-point buck that happened by the other day! You have to remember to charge it periodically (every few weeks), but it gives you a notification when it's time to do that and it doesn't take very long -- maybe a few hours over the USB-C cord -- and I love that I didn't have to hire an electrician to fix and reroute our wiring.
I would recommend this to a friendGood without subscription. Better with one.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have this doorbell wired to my existing doorbell wiring, and it has been decent so far. I like that Google does not require a subscription to Nest Aware to use the product, but without the subscription there are some limitations. The recordings are only available for 3 hours, so if you miss it within that window, you won't have access to the footage. Overall, have no issues.

Worth it
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this for my mom for mother’s day and she loves it, it works great and was very easy to set up!
I would recommend this to a friend Good camera for packages
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Feels safer for my packages. Like the alerts to my phone when someone is close, has a package, etc. Just wish they didn't make you get the subscription to unlock all of your past history. It's already pretty expensive as a stand alone device and then they want to charge you monthly to unlock all the features, but you don't necessarily have to.

Posted .Hi Marcus, thanks for sharing a review about the Nest Doorbell (battery), and we’re glad that you like the notification feature. Nest has long been focused on delivering quality products to our customers. We’re also focused on giving our customers value for the price, including three hours of event history right out of the box for the first time ever. On-device processing also gives our customers smart alerts and Activity Zones, which historically have required a subscription. There's no fee to stream full resolution live video and receive basic notifications, as long as your camera is connected to the internet. And the Nest Cam (battery) comes with event video history without a subscription which will automatically expire and be deleted after 3 hours. However, you’ll need a Nest Aware subscription to receive full and extra features. Check what you can get with the Nest Aware subscription here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9233159

Posted .Hi Dashcam, thanks for sharing your feedback with us, and we’re sorry to hear that your Nest Doorbell (Battery) drains a little quickly.
Your Nest doorbell could be detecting a lot of activities, as the battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and doorbell settings that you select. You can extend the battery life of your doorbell 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
Also, 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. Please note that 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.
We may be able to check for other reasons why the battery drains quickly, so we can find a way to help improve your experience. You may contact us anytime here for further isolation and troubleshooting: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
