    I love how we get notifications when someone is in the camera view! I love how it also shows when someone has a package AND when the package is no longer there! Makes for peace of mind!

    We originally tried the Arlo doorbell. We returned that in favor of this and it was the right decision. The video and audio is high quality and very little delay. If you have the google home app already it's a no brainer.

    This camera is great! This is my first smart doorbell and i have to say i love how easy it is to use. I also like the look of it more than say a Ring doorbell personally. As someone who uses google products, this is a must have for me. I am considering another camera for the back door.

    The battery operated version of Nest Doorbell was a perfect alternative to the wired version. We were awfully surprised by the length of each charge. The first charge lasted more than a week. Camera and audio quality are excellent.

    Excellent product, but too bad about the battery life on this. As in, if you turn off most alarms, it will not last very long. So it defeats the purpose of having a camera.

      Hello Eleazar, thanks for the feedback you shared about the Nest Doorbell (battery), and we’re sorry to learn that the battery life is less than ideal for you. 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. That way, you don’t have to charge the battery more often than you should. You may also consider connecting your camera to a power outlet with the included or optional power adapter for continuous power and to keep the battery charged. Please note that the power adapter included is not weatherproof and not intended for outdoor use, and you can use a compatible weatherproof cable (sold separately).

      If you need help with any concerns about the Nest doorbell, you’ll find us always available here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Great product! Easy to install and pair up with my google home mini. Sometimes a little delay from when the doorbell is rung to when the google home mini chimes and announces someone at the door. But overall a good product.

    Exactly what I was looking for. Only frustrating thing is that it does not have (or I can not find) a setting so that familiar faces don't set off notifications. Ideally I would like to know when there is someone I don't know - I don't need to know every time the dog gets taken out.
