How do you know the nest doorbell is better? Did you have a ring before? Based upon what you said about the nest doorbell, it does everything the ring does.

The thermostat is fine, although it doesn’t have HomeKit capability, so I can’t ask Siri what the inside temp is or to alter it. I can still use my phone to change settings of course. Honeywell has one just like it and it does support HomeKit. It think it less expensive as well.

Hi, I am up now!

Well, I have been following” Nest from when the company began. All of my friends have Rings and like them although they know there are weak areas. Most people acknowledge the areas Nest excels in ... some of my friends are switching if they think it matters.

I’m 70, I just bought a new house and I’m planning to buy what I feel is the best.

I watched dozens go videos on YouTube that absolutely proved to me that Nest was better ... the the two are also very similar. Nest really excels in getting a very clear video, much better than Ring. Nest records 24/7 365 days of a year .... Ring only records when it notices motion. Nest keeps your recordings ... it’s $5.00 a month.

Ring it a very good product ... but Nest just narrowly edged it out and I’m planning on buying more of their products.

If you have an afternoon, just watch a few on YouTube.

Good luck and good feelings and health to you.
