The Nest Doorbell is the battery-powered video doorbell that works with any home. See what’s happening at your door and answer it from anywhere.1 A taller field of view lets you see people from head to toe, or boxes on the ground. It has built-in intelligence that can tell the difference between people, packages, animals, and vehicles, and send alerts about what’s important to you. You can even use pre-recorded responses, like “You can just leave it. Thanks!” It Includes 3 hours of event video history, you can go back and see what you missed. And because there are no wires, you can install it yourself.

Im wanting the unit without battery. I dont know why they dont release it here. I like it more because Its a smaller unit. I have the original wired google doorbell.
I have this ATM.. I'm looking to shift to something else..
have got one I don't think its great tbh - have it at the holiday house and consistently goes offline. Had to put an arlo up on the porch to see if it was a wifi issue and its just the camera. Note that I have an older model but I think i'll switch to arlo now
Min lag? Do you mean minimum or a minute lag?
Upto 3 secs lag with good wifi connection. It's a issue when speaking especially
Gotcha
Can you convert a battery model to a wired?
This one supports wired.
You can wire into existing doorbell wiring for trickle charging. This won't allow for 24x7 video recording etc though, you need the dedicated wired version for this (not sold in Aust).
Yes. You need an AC (not DC) power adaptor. I had a SWAN video door camera so I had wires running back to a GPO inside the house but I had to acquire an AC plug pack which was spliced in to the power lead that ran out to the front door.
What's a good wired cam that can do 24 x 7 recording?
I ditched the Google cameras and doorbell for reolink PoE versions. No wifi noise and cheaper. Don't even need a base station just put a chip in each camera for recording. Put electricity supplier lock on your distribution board so no one can turn off power to your place and you're golden
wow elec provider can do a Lock? nicd
No, you buy a lock which is compatible with the meter readers keys
And call your retailer and tell them you have put a meter reader compatible lock on your meter.
@Pootie Tang: ta thanks
This or the Aqara?
I used aqara doorbell with Apple HomeKit. It terrible, coming from ring doorbell but wanted HomeKit.
Using Aqara and it’s been great. You will have to wire it for better performance. My friend who hasn’t wired their Aqara doorbell, keeps having issues with detection. It also doesn’t have subscription, is Homekit compatible and cheaper if you have Student Beans account.
Is this weatherproof?
No. IP54 rating, but it is not waterproof
There are solution to make it more water resistant, though still not water proof. Example https://amzn.asia/d/2cexpG2
Read my review below
I changed to a Reolink video doorbell. So much better. Don't get the Google doorbell if you don't want to be pay walled into subscriptions to store video. Also be prepared for lag
which one?
Physical installation is easy and neat. If you are happy with motion only history within last 3 hours, it’s fine and it’s free.
However if you need history beyond 3 hours ago the optional subscription fee is $120-240 per year. And if you add up say, the next 5 years, the total ongoing cost is a fail model. And google has a history of keep on increasing fee, rather than reducing fee in view of global trend of cost for storage space and system maintenance should be getting more affordable over time.
Have some thought and plan before buying.
If you want doorbell with free subscription, get Eufy, they also have camera online, and door lock with camera. If you just want door lock only, Aqara A100 is pretty good. Also check out alternate suggestions from the other comments, they are feedback from real experience.Is this the same? Price matched by office works?

Anybody got feedback on battery life?
Mine is 2 years old now and still gets 2 to 3 months from a charge.
I would buy, having s range of best speakers and display, but those have not improved during my ownership and I think have if anything gotten less accurate and useful. Also given Google's history of discontinued products, I won't be purchasing this.
Are these going to be updated anytime soon?
Good price, rubbish device
Are they an improvement over the older model?
I’m reluctant to pull the trigger on this because the subscription is not so crazy expensive
Juat got this cause i dont have a "Smart" doorbell at the moment so the 3hrs free is better then nothing for me. Bloody cheap for a decent app device aswell
Awesome price and awesome device.
Dunno why people are experiencing such bad lag because I never had and NBN is patchy here.
Battery life could be better but lots of people walk by my residence.
$187 now :/
Great device if you can live with min lag. Been using from 2 years. Wired and installed my self using instructions from google. No subscription.
Hope new AI features come for users without subscription
