Google Doorbell Can’t/Won’t Do What the Aqara Will

I switched from Google doorbells to Aqara doorbells. After using Google Nest doorbells on my two frequently used doors, I decided it was time to change things to something that worked and fit better with my needs.

Am I the only iPhone user who uses Google products? Full disclosure, I used to have a Google phone when I was first installing these devices. Anyone else regret committing to a particular ecosystem of products?

Not really. I switched from Apple to Samsung and like them. I will be switching out using SmartThings (Aeotec) for Aqara though since Aqara has a good ecosystem and Matter.

I owned the Nest doorbell for the last four years, and must say it is absolutely the worst doorbell. I cannot recite anything positive about the Nest doorbell. Why did I purchase it? Because it received rave reviews on KZbin. I finally made the switch to the Ring Pro 2 Wired. This doorbell is 100 times better, faster, superior picture quality and the app has many more features. The app is also far more user-friendly. I paid the annual subscription and it’s worth it.
