Google Launches 2nd Gen Wired Nest Doorbell [Video]

Google has announced the launch of a second generation wired Nest doorbell.

With this new addition, there's now a Nest Doorbell for everyone. While Nest Doorbell (battery) offers a lot of versatility, we know people with compatible set-ups may want the reliability of a wired doorbell — so you never have to worry about charging a battery or running out of power. And if your Wi-Fi is spotty one day, you still won’t miss any important moments. The new Nest Doorbell will automatically record an hour’s worth of important events to its local memory.

You’ll also get three hours of event video history at no extra charge, with clips up to five minutes long, allowing you to easily rewind to key points of activity. If you choose to upgrade to a Nest Aware Plus subscription, you’ll get an industry-leading 10 days of 24/7 continuous video history so you can always keep an eye on what’s happening at home, even if you’re away.




Features:
● The wired Nest Doorbell can tell the difference between a person, package, animal, and vehicle; get alerts about the things that matter most to you, no subscription required[1]
● Get peace of mind knowing you can check your video doorbell 24/7 without having to recharge batteries
● See what you missed with 3 hours of free event video history included in the Google Home app; watch 2-second previews and 5-minute clips of important activity
● The Nest Doorbell requires the Google Home app and a free Google account; it’s not compatible with the Nest app or the Nest site
● Get up to 30 days of event video history and familiar face detection with a Nest Aware subscription, or choose a Nest Aware Plus subscription for even more benefits, like up to 10 days of continuous video recording
● The wired Nest Doorbell is designed to replace a wired doorbell and requires a compatible chime and transformer (both sold separately); you may need to replace existing hardware
● Use compatible smart devices that work with Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa to stream your live video feed or see and talk to people at your door; plus, use compatible Nest and Amazon Alexa speakers as a doorbell chime
● Chat through the doorbell to let friends know you’ll be right there or tell a delivery person where to leave a package[1]; or quickly respond to visitors with pre-recorded messages[1]
● It’s beautifully designed to complement any home and made with 43% post-consumer recycled materials, so it’s a great choice for you and the planet

You can order the 2nd Gen Wired Nest Doorbell in Ash, Ivy, Linen, or Snow for $179.99.
