The only Google Nest Doorbell worth buying just got its first real deal
It's the first time we see this wired smart doorbell for $50 off
The second version of the Google Nest Doorbell finally received a decent discount over at Amazon, Best Buy, and Crutchfield, so you can get it for a cool $130. Considering its MSRP is $180, this is a decent discount. In exchange for this price, the video doorbell will keep an eye on your front door and alert you when someone's there.

Ring in the new year with this smart video doorbell deal
It's officially 2023 now, and it's time for you and your doorbell to start acting like it. Smart doorbells not only protect your home's entryway with 24/7 video surveillance, but they can also alert you when a person, pet, or package is at your door via motion-triggered alerts. Google's latest entry into the segment is the second generation, wired Nest Doorbell. It has a solid set of smart features, works with your existing chime, and it can be yours right now for just $150.
Google's new wired Nest Doorbell is here a whole year after being teased
Wired and always on, quite in contrast to the battery-powered Nest Doorbell
Google's Pixel 7 event is just around the corner, but it looks like the company doesn’t want to announce all of its products under one roof. Two days before the big launch, Google has released its latest contender for the best smart doorbell crown, and this time around, its new Nest Doorbell is a fully wired solution. There is no fiddling with batteries required, quite in contrast to the Nest Doorbell (battery).
Google’s upcoming wired Nest Doorbell is on some store shelves, but you can’t buy it yet
You aren’t able to buy it even if you spot one
The Google Pixel 7 launch on October 6 is set to fully reveal the long-teased Pixel 7, Pixel 7 Pro, Pixel Watch, and a variety of Nest hardware. Google has confirmed that, and we thought one of those announcements was likely to be the previously teased wired Google Nest Doorbell. Now that product has appeared on shop shelves about five days before the announcement; it may be set to go on sale before the October 6 reveal.

The new art is housed in a Google Home update
It's been more than four years since Google-owned Nest came out with its Hello video doorbell. Consumer demands have evolved since then and with last year's Nest Doorbell (Battery) unable to record video continuously, even Google was made to admit it's been overdue for an update to its Hello doorbell. We know Nest will have new products out during the Made by Google event on October 6, but we now know exactly what one of them will look like.

Google promises to replace some Nest cameras for free if they're stolen
Try this one weird trick to get a free second Nest Cam — and go to jail for fraud
According to a support page (spotted by AP alum/Ars Technica editor Ron Amadeo), Google will replace the new battery-powered Nest Cam and the newer and older Nest Doorbells if they are stolen. Google reserves the right to say "no" if things seem sketchy, and you have a few hoops to jump through, but it should make sure you aren't out $180 if someone absconds with your new camera or doorbell.
