Customer Ratings & Reviews

It works however be warned that when the temperatures drop, it will give you a hard time. This is battery operated and we had to charge it every few days, annoying. We hardwired and the battery still gets wonky occasionally. Clarity is great in the Home app and hub. The audio is laggy in the Home app (android is what we have, can't speak for iPhone) but great in the hub. It wasn't expensive and we're not too annoyed by the cons I stated above. We're keeping but will upgrade if a better version comes out. I do stress that this device does not like the cold. If you need something quickly and it's on sale, go for it (utilizing as another cam is an alternative option). But keep an eye out if a newer version comes out.

Excellent camera quality and connectivity The battery model should come with in built transformer to easily replace existing door bell

More useful then the wired doorbell because you are able to place it to get the perfect view which is forward so you can see people coming up to your door. My wired doorbell was on the side of my house next to the door so the view just showed that side view of my porch. The battery can also is much easier to setup. I was done in less than 15 mins. The battery looks to last 2-3 months and takes minutes to fully recharge. This cam works perfectly with my Google assistants so when someone rings the bell the sound comes thru on the Google asst and it shows at the door. All and all a great device.

Does exactly what I need it to do Pros: tells me who is at the door Video quality is excellent Tells me when a package is there and when it leaves Cons: battery does not last as long as indicated Takes to long to for video to connect.

Love it. Video quality is great. Captures 3 hours free without a plan.

Nice replacement for the old battery operated bell and chime. Camera works well and doesn't detect unless there is something going on near. Very easy install and setup with smart home.

We got the battery version in case the wiring in the house was too old, but it hooked up just fine. The setup was very easy, Google links you to a video and you just go from there. It sends notifications for movement all the way down to the sidewalk. Speak feature works well, and the camera has very good night vision.

(I received a highly discounted product as a Best Buy employee but I have received no other compensation for this review, this review is purely my own opinion) Title feature is probably the major selling point considering a lot of other doorbells charge for any saved video. I also was pretty impressed at the package and person detection ,even more so given how its mostly done on device. Accessing video and speaking to people that rang the door was pretty lag free, unlike a lot of competing doorbells. The doorbell can also handle a wide range of low voltage wiring, which means if you currently have a wired doorbell you probably wire this guy up to it without replacing the transformer(which I did). The video quality while reasonable isn't the best though, although the IR mode is pretty serviceable. Also love the cute seasonal chimes!

I purchased the nest doorbell battery because of the option to wire along with a back-up battery. The images are crisp and the doorbell works as advertised. The only problem I had with the doorbell was installation. I tried to install the doorbell prior to having wifi properly set up in our newly bought house so I tried with mobile wifi. That created an unknown problem in which the doorbell became registered, so when I finally had my wifi in the house set up, the doorbell would not sync. It took me 2 days to figure out how to system reset the doorbell because there was not a lot of information on the internet that matched my problems. Once I factory reset the doorbell I was able to register the nest to my google home account. Thats another minor issue I have, I like many others on the internet have said "I prefer the nest app to the google home app".

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 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.

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.

Excellent video doorbell. High quality video and easy installation. I love the integration with my smart home setup and the intelligent notifications for various detected activities at my front door. The best option for a renter.

Excellent video doorbell. Very easy set up and great range of view.

Perfect for rental apartments or homes. Only had to buy a rotating door bracket to adjust the view from Amazon. Battery lasts for 4-6 months and thats due to having a street in the view. So I get multiple notifications throught the day. I feel if I only select some activity area, battery may last 6-8 weeks easily. Have 3 hrs recording window which is more than sufficient. Camera detects the package and animals really nicely.

Easy to install. Easy to use. Video quality is better than expected. Convenient to charge.

Works really weak with my google home account. Super easy to setup and instant feed available. I can see the feed from 1000 of miles away. detects smallest motion to keep me alert. Options to save familiar faces is a plus

No issues whatsoever on setting up/recording. Easy to use, connection to the wifi was no problem. Only problem which is known is just the battery, but it last me around two weeks which is no issue for me since it charges pretty quick.

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.

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.
