    On a full charge, I've gotten four months months of use without charging it. People expect to way too much nowadays, its literally a camera with a button. Thats it. I don't expect it to be perfect. But, it works like its supposed to.

    Love the ring doorbell. Probably my wifi but the app is really delayed unless they ring the bell. The video alarm is delayed enough that people are gone before I know they were here.

    Easy to install and works well. There is a notice delay when deliveries are detected. Like the playback feature of Ring better

      Hi SpectreGreat, thanks for sharing your feedback on Nest Doorbell (Battery), we’re sorry to hear that it has a delay with notice when deliveries are detected.

      Here are some recommended troubleshooting steps that may help improve your overall experience with the doorbell:
      - If you have a lot of open apps on your phone, they can slow down its overall performance. Try closing some apps, including the Home app, and then re-open it.
      - If that doesn’t work, you can try restarting your phone or device.
      - Check your network as your doorbell notifications can also be delayed by a slow network connection.
      - Other devices in your home may be using a lot of bandwidth. You can temporarily stop a device’s bandwidth use manually by quitting an app or program, disconnecting it from Wi-Fi or ethernet, or by turning it off.
      - The notifications can be delayed if your camera, phone, tablet or computer is connected to a Wi-Fi extender, which adds extra relay time to any device that’s using it. In this case, connect your camera directly to your Wi-Fi router to help reduce the delay.

      If your doorbell still has a notice delay, it would be best to consult our support team for further isolation and troubleshooting here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    This thing is awesome. The battery life is months, the notifications on our devices were easy to set up, and this has proved to be a lifesaver when we're using the restroom (the cross-talk function lets you tell someone to wait).

    Could not ask for a better product. It is far better than the other big name doorbell that we had prior to this one. Faces are very clear and the viewing angle is amazing too.

    Too Basic

    Looks great, beautiful aesthetics, but disappointed in the app integration. Features are more basic than I expected. Installs directly into the Google Home app. The Nest app does not support this device, which was not an issue for me; however, it does not allow for streaming on any TV's that may have a Nest app or a built-in Chromecast like previous Nest cameras. I do not have an electric chime and have it setup to receive push notifications on my phone and announcements on our smart speakers. Unfortunately, there is very little personalization available for the speaker announcements. Bought it on launch day, expected a bit more after seeing the ads...

      Hi breth1, thanks for posting a review about the Nest Cam (Battery) . We're sorry to learn of your disappointment with the app integration and its features. Our team is working on bringing full functionality to the Google Home app so all of your cameras and previous Nest devices can be setup and can have full control in one app. Also, there are some compute limitations on some versions of Chromecast that do not allow us to support this yet, but we’re aiming to add support as soon as possible.

      We’re taking your feedback seriously to work on improving our products and services, and if there’s anything we can help you with, please let us know here and we’d be happy to help: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    I love this doorbell! Way better than anything Ring can put out. The only thing that lowers this one from the wired version is the camera isn't wide angle.. Still works great if you have Google products in your home.

    Bigger than I thought it was going to be but great coverage. 2 way talk feature and app are great. Battery seems to be lasting a long time. Great if you don’t want to connect to the indoor chime but the option is still there.
