Competing attributes for the latest Nest Doorbell to match Ring's offerings
October 1st, 2025, is set to be an exciting day for home security enthusiasts as Google's Nest is set to unveil the latest additions to their security family, including the much-anticipated third generation of the Nest Doorbell.
In recent years, the competition between Nest and Ring has been fierce, with both companies continually striving to outdo each other. One of the key features that sets these doorbells apart is night vision. Traditionally, night vision has been available in black and white, but recent advancements have shown that colour night vision offers a significant improvement in capturing clear details, such as people's faces and license plates.
Currently, neither the Nest Doorbell nor the Ring doorbell comes with a built-in physical chime that plays a sound independently. This means that users have to rely on their existing doorbell chime or a notification through a Google Nest speaker or Hub. However, there is hope that the new Nest Doorbell may buck this trend and incorporate a built-in chime feature.
The anticipation for this potential upgrade is high, as the writer believes that colour night vision should also be implemented in Nest Doorbells. Interestingly, newer Nest cameras and doorbells can already show and highlight colour in low light conditions if there's sufficient ambient light. This suggests that the technology for colour night vision may already be in place.
The buzz around the new Nest Doorbell has been building for months, fuelled by a large leak involving the Google Home Speaker, Nest Cam Indoor (3rd generation), Nest Cam Outdoor (2nd generation wired), and Nest Doorbell Wired (3rd generation). With just a few days to go until the official launch, the suspense is palpable.
As we eagerly await the unveiling of the new Nest Doorbell and other security devices, one thing is for certain - home security is about to take a significant leap forward. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting development.
