Review: The sleek and smart Google Nest doorbell is great with notifications and monitoring your deliveries, even from afar

Shallow, but true. No one wants a clunky eyesore hanging in front of their house. The Google Nest boasts a sleek and minimalist design and comes in a couple of classy shades. Though stylish, the simple build makes it discreet when mounted on the wall. Installation was breezy and the instructions were easy enough to follow, from the assembling to the app installation process.The high-resolution camera and sensitive motion sensor is nothing short of impressive.

There was an incident however where I was doing my morning skincare routine when I got an alert about a delivery man at the door. I used the speaker function to tell him to leave it at the door. Most of the time, the delivery person will look puzzled and search for the source of the voice. What I did not expect was for this guy to shout, “If you inside then just come out and take your package lah!!!” Shaken, I ran to the door with sticky fingers and a shiny face to tell him I had my hands full.

Also as a disclaimer, I’m a Google girl in a Google world – meaning I use a Pixel phone, have a couple of Google speakers in the house and have a Google Nest Hub which makes connectivity even better and more interlinkage between the devices. But honestly speaking, this is really a non-issue.
