Title: Great Design and Custom Alerts - Smart Choice for a Modern Home
Review: We’ve had this doorbell for a few months now, and I’m really happy with how it’s been performing. The dark ash color fits seamlessly with the modern aesthetic of our house. I appreciate the sleek, understated look that doesn't scream "Look at me! I'm a Smart Doorbell". It fits in with the look of my home without obnoxiously standing out and it compliments the black accents on our exterior.Here’s what’s been great about it: Tall Aspect Ratio: This is a game-changer. Although I miss out on the wide left to right field of view of a traditional camera - for a doorbell I have found this to be a preferred and optimal choice. With its vertical design, I can see more than just someone standing at the door. I’m able to spot packages on the ground, which has been a lifesaver with the number of deliveries I get, and it’s easier to catch visitors' (head to toe) as they approach. Custom Alerts: I really appreciate how specific the alerts are. The algorithms baked in to the detection software are able to discern between a person, vehicle, animal, or package crossing the field of view, and I get a notification for exactly what I need to know. Beyond just identifying a person, the Nest Aware software goes a step further to recognize familiar faces and tells me if it is someone I know, or an unrecognized person. This makes a huge difference in cutting down on unnecessary alerts, like when a passing car triggers a motion warning. It also makes sure I take notice when its an unknown person at the door and not just one of my kids running around. Although the advanced Nest Aware package costs 15 dollars a month, I find the 24x7 coverage and advanced detection features to be worth the piece of mind it provides. Video History: The 3-hour free video history is perfect for those that just want to check in on missed events. Personally I chose to step up to the 10 days of 24x7 coverage to provide full access to events and surrounding video coverage. Its always better to have it and not need it, then to need it and it not be there. The video quality is crisp enough to clearly identify people or events, which is reassuring when something’s off at the door or front yard. I also love that I can check and manage all of this through the Google Home app anytime. Easy Setup: It replaced our old wired doorbell without any issues. It simply requires two wires for the power, and two screws to attach it to the wall in front of my door. My transformer was already compatible and provided the right amount of power to run the doorbell. Just like a regular doorbell, a press of the button activates my doorbell chime. This doorbell goes even further though by also announcing the event and playing a chime through my google home speakers and sending a push notification (with video) to my phone. I like this because I can clearly know when someone is at the door no matter where I am at in the house.Some notes: Disappointingly it doesn't support the Nest app which is where I have typically managed my other Nest cameras I have installed around the house (so if used to that interface, it’s a bit of an adjustment), but the Google Home app has been easy to use, and I was able to transition all of my legacy Nest devices over. If Homekit is the preferred smart home over Google - there is a way to integrate the doorbell and camera feed through either a custom homebridge server or through an additional device called Starling Home hub. I personally have the Starling device and it allows the doorbell to integrate perfectly into my existing Homekit Smart Home setup - including alerts, notifications, and live video feed.For anyone looking for a simple, reliable doorbell camera with great video quality and custom alerts, this has been a solid pick. I would definitely recommend it if you're into a more modern, functional design that works out of the box with Google or Alexa devices.

Title: Pretty much perfect!
Review: Great, high quality product that’s easy to install and has all the bells and whistles without a subscription. It was also important to us that it work with our existing doorbell chime which it does.The picture quality is great, the night vision works awesome, and the alerts are very accurate discerning between people, packages, animals, cars, etc. It also has two-way audio communication that works very well. On top of that there’s also fun features like custom chimes and even holiday themed chimes that expire automatically after the holiday’s over.Note: It may be a little more expensive than its competitors, but since you don’t have to pay for a subscription it’ll eventually pay for itself.

Title: Narrow base bracket fits narrow door frame well
Review: Well designed package. I am not sure this is designed intention to fit narrow door frame or not. Those who have storm door might know that storm door frame will cover part of the original door frame. That leaves narrow door frame for install video door frame especially wired doorbell (to install the video door over the existing wired doorbell). This version of Google/Nest wired video door bell has a bracket at the back which is narrow enough to install comfortably with door frame of 1.3 inches width. The back of the doorbell itself has round chamfer shape around the edges and raised up a bit by the metal back bracket make good clearance away from storm door frame that overhang on to the original door frame. Nice. I have no issue installed it with storm door. It slightly off but does not too bad at all. There is no need for additional shim or other 3rd party base plate needed. I have been looking for a video doorbell that narrow enough to fit and this one fits perfectly.From functionality standpoint, the door bell detects person, package or motion well. It is not perfect but sufficient. It does not distinguish depth for person or motion. If detection frame/zone you created covers certain area of the screen (the app. allows you to define different zones) any things in that zone will be detected regardless of how far the object is. It would be nice if it offers "depth" for detection as well. I am not sure other brands do have this feature or not. One of my zone, will detect people at the mailbox near the street from the front door from time to time.I like the feature that application can detect present of a package or absence of the previously detected package. Nice touch.It is easy to install and setup. Should be straight forward to setup and help can be reached on line within the app. as well. That is also good.

Review: Lo tengo instalado en el exterior, sin cables, su funcionalidad es bastante buena, detecta muy bien los eventos en el exterior y se integra muy fácilmente a todo el ecosistema Google, la única pega que le encuentro es que al activar la detección de zona, la batería dura poquísimo, alrededor de una semana, si se desactiva eso, la batería se extiende a más de un mes
