[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This google Nest Doorbell works really well! It is easy to install and super easy to use. Set up was really easy. It is user friendly,the app is very easy to maneuver. The picture is clear. I like that it can recognize people and things. (like a package or animal) Night vision works well.The battery seems to last a while,it tells you what percent it has or it can show you how many weeks of battery life it has left. I would recommend this to anyone&everyone. It's a pretty amazing device ,the technology is just amazing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nest Doorbell was easy to hang. The doorbell seems way to oversized and takes up more space then a average doorbell. The instructions were a bit confusing to set up at first. Like the battery option but worry that it will be overlooked to charged defeating the doorbells purpose of video.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nest Doorbell Battery does the job with little fuss. I got the matte white model and the style can be best described as minimalist. A round black camera at the top and a white round button at the bottom of a slab that is about half the width of 6.6" smart phone and just about as tall as the smart phone. Installation is straight forward and quite simple, at least the way I had it installed. I have an existing wired doorbell with a transformer already in place. Given this setup, my PHYSICAL install process was as simple as disconnecting the existing door bell button at the front door and connecting the the two wires to the Nest Doorbell. Ofcourse, you need to screw the doorbell to the door frame or wall or whereever you want to physically set the door bell. Given its size, it would be smart to check out first where you are comfortable installing it and how you will place it. Google provides everything you need to install including needed screws, a base plate and a wedge to help angle the camera if needed. Before any of the physical installation is performed, you will need to download the Google Home app onto your phone and scan the QR code that comes with the doorbell to set it up with your existing wifi connection and your smartphone. It is a good idea to physically place the Nest Doorbell in the location you will install it and confirm that you have a good wifi signal and that video quality is good. The benefit of the wired connection is that the app can directly display live video without needing to perform an extra click to get the video started. There are some questions that I could not figure out such as how do I change the doorbell to a non-wired connection. To do this, do I need delete the door bell from my app and redo the setup or is there an option to modify? I could not find anything in the app that would let me do this but may be I just need to dig into the details more. For my setup, the Nest doorbell works as before i.e. someone presses the doorbell button and my existing door bell chime goes off. The additions now are a camera to view who is at the door without needing to get to the door, an audio channel to speak with the person without having to go to the door and other smarts that come with the phone app integration. I am not sure how it works with an app only option i.e. if there is a lag from when the button is pressed to when the phone alert showsup. In my simulated trials, the alerts appeared immedately with little to no lag. Note that night view is black and white and gets to about 6 feet for decent views. Beyond that, you only get darkness. I would love for it to integrate to my Alexa Echo Show but that is not possible today. I understand that smoething is in the works for interoperability amongst smart devices - fingers crossed and hoping the future gets here fast! I have yet to explore the rich set of features and options such as alert zones, etc. Overall, an excellent doorbell that is easy to install and get going. The one concern I have is how the doorbell wll handle the Texas summer heat. the specs call for operating at less than 104 degrees or less and I know that there will be days when the temperatures will be higher. Plus my front door faces west which means direct sunlight. For now, the winter sun is not a problem as the weather is cool and no direct sunlight is on the door bell.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this Nest Doorbell because I didn't want to miss anyone that came to my front door, whether I was at home or away. This product was super easy to install because it runs on battery and I didn't need to wire it into my house. I love that I can see everyone that comes to my door to drop off a package without having to make sure I'm home to greet them! The best part is that the video is clear both during the day and at night. I highly recommend this product to anyone that wants to see who's at their door before they answer it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nest Doorbell (Battery) was a cinch to install. The device's two-way audio quality, along with its video quality, is good. Clear HDR images are captured during the daytime, while night vision takes over in the dark. Vertical viewing allows you to see the entire person, as well as any parcels that are on the ground. Once motion is detected, or someone presses the button, the required Google Home app (along with a Google account) alerts us with notifications that are sent to our device. You can view the camera's live feed, which has the ability to differentiate between animals and people, along with notifying you when packages have been taken or left. I would recommend this video doorbell to others.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nest Doorbell is an extremely well made electronic component that has very versatile features. The camera captures a full grown delivery person from head to tow as well as the package being left on my porch. The resolution is outstanding not to mention the camera's ability to recognize repeat visitors and family who come to the door. The Nest Doorbell is very easy to install and the accompanying software is very user friendly. The only drawback for me is that the device shuts down in extremely cold temps in an effort to save battery life. This is not a big deal for me as it comes back online as soon as the temps rise a bit. Overall a great product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have placed on my front door and I love it! I am thinking about getting one for my side door. It works great! I am able to see who is at the door when I am not home or when I am getting something delivered. I would recommend this to my family and friends!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Nest doorbell was very easy to install and works with the Google Home app I already use. I like that it's battery, as I do not have a wired doorbell to hard wire it to, but it will have to be charged from time to time. It gives me peace of mind for the times I am away from home.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just installed the Google Nest Doorbell – and so far, I can recommend it based on the fact that overall - it works great and does everything I'd hoped and expected. Here are the other pros: - Installation guide was easy to start and understand. - The actual connection to the permanent bracket is very simple and easy to use when needing to charge the doorbell. - Connection to the app and setting up the device was very straight forward. - Camera quality is good, as is the audio clarity for the microphone and speaker - Hoping battery life is good with video on its highest setting - to be determined,. There are a few cons: - Our mounting point is on Hardi siding, and the mounting bracket is not ideal for an angled surface such as this. It took a few tries to get a good spot on the siding that was vertical as needed. The resulting aesthetic is not ideal with empty space behind the bracket – it makes it look a bit temporary. - The battery powered version does not provide an audible ring tone outside, so people who press it may not have a sense of whether it's working or not. - I'm guessing this is user error – but the notification on my phone and iPad aren't audible. I almost wish the notification was a loud “ding dong” like a doorbell. - Adding family members to the Home account for access to this required a Google email account (not everyone in the family has one).

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had the option to use battery or wired installation. Went with the battery option. Device was 77% charged so it needed to be fully charged before installation. Took about 1h 30 minutes to fully charge. While charging, I downloaded the google home app and added the device. I also viewed the installation steps and videos. The configuration was super easy.  I received notification via the app when it was fully charged which was nice. Installation instructions were easy to follow and it took under 20 minutes to install. I configured the app notifications, nest aware options e.g facial recognition, sound detection, emergency services, etc. I noticed that there are other services that I could integrate like tv, music etc. so I need to explore those options a bit more. The camera picture quality is pretty good. I like that the app keeps the history of events/recordings. App also shows battery life. I can view live video and use the microphone to listen and/or speak to someone. Not sure how long the battery will last but when it does need to be charged I am estimating that it will take approximately 6 hours on a dead battery so not horrible. I am definitely feeling more secure having this device! Will be adding other devices that will integrate with the home/nest app.
