    The feature set is ok, monthly price is also ok, the picture quality is fine, The battery life however leaves much to be desired I shouldnt have to neuter my camera to the point of not being worth its price to get over 2 weeks of life.

      Hi BrettW, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear about the short battery life you are having on Nest Doorbell (Battery).

      Battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select. Users can extend the battery life of their camera by adjusting video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and using activity zones to monitor specific areas. Here are some typical scenarios:
      Busy: About 1 month battery life (About 25 - 30 recorded events per day)
      Typical: About 2.5 months battery life (About 13 - 16 recorded events per day)
      Quiet: About 6 months battery life (about 2 - 5 recorded events per day)

      We recommend checking the frequency of events (per day) that you get with your Nest Doorbell (Battery). If the short battery life isn´t related to the frequency of events, then we may need to have a closer look at your device and figure out the root cause. We recommend contacting our support team for further assistance here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Something to keep in mind, this works outside the nest ecosystem, and app, being this is a nest home device it makes no sense they are staring to fracture the environment, makes no sense. But here are the issues why I might end up returning this device, from not so critical to unacceptable. 1- Will not work with the nest app, so the historical events need to be viewed on Google home app, which is not a streamlined app for historical events. 2- Being this is Google home only you will not be able to use the web browser on your PC to check nest recordings 3- Historical events are not showing under the Google home app, when I go to the events, the app will simply crash and force close. 4- To avoid crashing I need to go into the app, select the doorbell and then I can go to the historical events 5- Several events show on the time-line, but the actual recorded video is not found, is says "video is not found check again later" so if you are trying to figure out if a package was delivered, who rang your bell etc etc this is USELESS. 6- Same issues on a galaxy note S7+ , Samsung note S20+ , One plus 7 I will call google support tomorrow and see if this can be corrected, They ended up hanging the call when they couldn't figure out what's going on. If I get no help tomorrow, back it goes to Best Buy.

      Hi there FreddyXZ2, thanks for making us aware of the missing recorded videos with the Google Home app, and for working with our support team. We apologize if we were not able to resolve the issue right away.

      Using the Google Home app provides you with a lot of benefits including access to Google's trusted security platform and access to other Google tools. Also, it provides you with seamless integration with your other Google devices. In the near future, we’ll allow users to set up previous Nest devices and have full control in the Home app. Users with older cameras can view their camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams. Our team is working on bringing full functionality to the Google Home app so all your cameras can be set up and controlled in one place.

      We appreciate that you will try to contact us once more to try and resolve the issue. Please do not hesitate to reach out us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    After 1 year...

    The door bell continually fell off the magnetic metal plate after 6months of use. I had this doorbell for well over a year. There is no way for you to replace or fix camera yourself, The only way is with the insurance purchase and at the time I could only afford just the camera. So now I would have to buy a whole new camera with insurance. Note DO NOT place the doorbell on the door itself, because I notice over time the opening and closing of the door would damage the magnet causing it to eventually to fall. So now I'll have to figure out how to place it on a brick wall near my door.
