Google Nest Doorbell (Wired) - Formerly Nest Hello - Video Doorbell with 24/7 Streaming - Smart Doorbell Camera for Home with HDR Video, HD Talk and Listen, Night Vision, and Person Alerts

Had this for over a year now. It works great. Easy to set up. Camera quality is amazing. If you want to be able to review data from earlier times you will need a subscription but worth it to me

Nest before Google never disappointed! This camera was made by Nest, NOT Google. This camera is GREAT! The picture quality and build quality is excellent! Unfortunately, Google took ADT's money and nuked their good products for worse versions that are tied into ADT. Googleis now known for suddenly ddisabling the product that YOU bought and paid for monthly att amoment's notice. They are doing this to the Nest Secure Security System! Do NOT buy this new as google may be getting ready to kill the Nest app that this camera REQUIRES to operate! NOTE: This camera does not natively work with the Google Home app. Therefore you have to use the Nest app to set it up or make any changes!

This is my third nest doorbell that I have purchased for my house and I have also purchased two for my mother's house. I have tried another company and it was fine but I am invested with Google and nest products. This works well and is easy to install. It works great with my Google home speakers. I'm sure you can get one cheaper from another company that is just as good but I always come back to these.

One of the best doorbell camers available. You just need to make sure your existing doorbell system is compatible before hand. I had to buy a new 16vac transformer that could produce enough amps because the old one we had was obsolete since it's an older house. If you have a regular doorbell system with a ding dong, it will most likely work. If you however have a fancy 3 or 4 chime doorbell with the mechanical gongs, it will not work as the fancy chime is an over complicated mess in regards to how it's wired. The camera angle and quality is satisfactory. The nest app is very good, though sometimes minor glitches, I really like the nest app. I however hate the google home app for viewing the camera. It's pathetic actually. Google is a degradation type of company and regresses instead of progresses. So proceed with caution. I am really only giving it 4 stars because nest is now run by google. When I first started buying nest products years ago, it was not owned by google. Bad move nest. The product itself should have 5 stars, but just make sure it is compatible with absolutely everything and if they ever drop the nest app, I would change this review to 0 stars in thst specific case if it happens, which is a fair chance. Recommended with reservations.

Update to Review, set to one star, May 2, 2023. I bought this in late DEC 2022, and it was delivered Jan 6, 2023. In late April, the device image went grainy. I've uploaded a picture. This can't be fixed with any sort of reset. I've contacted Google via phone and email, and logged a support case, and the response I get is: "We have already filed a request for the process of the replacement on your device and it shows here that Google does not provide a commercial warranty with your purchase. Please contact your original point of purchase to determine if a commercial warranty was provided with your purchase." On the Amazon product page for this Nest Doorbell, it indicates this: "Product Warranty: For warranty information about this product, please click here" .. and click through goes to a bare page on which it reads: "Please contact the seller directly for warranty information for this product. You may also be able to find warranty information on the manufacturer’s website." Great -- I'm in an infinite loop and neither side will help. So, two take-aways: • you're on your own after the Amazon return period (~1 month) • this is a low quality product AVOID! ********************************************* Original Review, FEB 2023. I bought this to replace my SkyBell, which died after a network configuration change. I did the install for this myself, and it was troublesome. First, the doorbell indicated that the power voltage was insufficient. However it still worked to activate the existing mechanical chime doorbell inside. However it stuck the bell knockers (like tapping and holding, it muted the sound). I had to adjust the Chime Duration settings. Once I was through that, after some online research (I wasn't going to pay several hundred dollars for a "Nest Home Pro"), I researched more about the voltage problem. The voltage from my doorbell was insufficient - I think it was ~10V, and, for the Nest Doorbell (Wired), it MUST be 16-24 V AC, 10-40 VA. These specifications are really important. At that point I got up in the attic and followed my doorbell wire back to the garage where I found the hard-wired transformer near my garage door. I reviewed its type, then went to Home Depot and bought a 20V Hampton Bay Wired Doorbell Transformer, for about $25, returned home, popped the breaker for the doorbell, checked there was no current, and upgraded my transformer. After that, the unit started up and I was able to complete the app-based installation process. This unit has an included SD card in it, and it's not necessary to get a subscription to use it, which was one of the main features I was looking for. I already have home cameras that record, so it saving the last few hours of photos is good enough. Video and audio quality is very good, and so is the night vision. It's possible to do two-way audio communication. The only other problem I have is that when I connect to it from my phone from within the house, sometimes it doesn't connect, but when I disable wifi on my phone and connect via cell, it works fine. (I had the same problem with my old doorbell).

I can't believe Google didn't keep this design for battery models - a much nicer look than white plastic. Pretty easy to update the 'old' doorbell and keep the chime working. Just needed to ensure the Nest settings had the indoor chime turned on, plus upgraded doorbell to 16v AC 800mA (easy $20 eBay purchase). Recommend.

Aparentemente bien, pero no funcionaba, la caja venia abierta

Encore une bonne blague des grandes entreprises Américaines. Très difficile à installer, la notice, la vidéo ne sont pas clairs, et il fait décrypter que l'alimentation doit être avec un transformateur alternatif (j'installais à neuf la sonnette, tous les tuto sont pour un remplacement). Le bouquet : pour utiliser pleinement la sonnette, notamment sur l'utilisation de la vidéo (lecture et sauvegarde des alertes), il faut souscrire à un abonnement de 10 ou 16€ par mois. Sans ces abonnements, c'est une Sonnette "simple", trop chère pour 133 ou 279€. Avec ces abonnements, c'est une Sonnette/Caméra hors de prix. Je vais donc renvoyer ce truc à l'oncle Sam, en confirmant ici ma déception.

Love our doorbell camera. Have 2 of them now.

très bon produit
