** Update: Just learned that Nest Hello has a theft replacement protection which is on their support page. There is no mention about this on their product page on their site, on the product box or any literature included inside the box - nest.com/support/article/What... **
Today we will be comparing the new video doorbell from Nest to the Ring video doorbell pro. The requirements, setup and specs of these 2 cameras are almost the same. I have reviewed these cameras separately and I'll include those in the description down below. On this video, I'll be mostly comparing the functionality, the features, cost of owning, similarities and differences on these cameras. I can tell you right now that both of these cameras have their pros and cons.

First, both cameras are wired and needs to be wired to an existing doorbell and chime at your house. It needs a 16-24 volt AC power. You will need to install the included pro power kit for the Ring and the chime connector for the Nest Hello to your existing chime unit.
So, let's start off with the pricing... Ring doorbell pro retails at their website at $250 dollars but at Amazon, you can find it sometimes as low as $199.
Nest Hello retails at $230 dollars on their website.
Both doorbell cameras are 1080p HD with 160 degree FOV
They can be connected to your WiFi either on a 2.4 or 5 GHz frequencies
Both cameras uploads to their respective cloud servers and one of the main differences between the 2 is that the Ring Pro only records when there is motion plus when somebody pushes the doorbell button and also when you check your camera using the Live View. With the Nest, it records to the cloud 24/7. Both cameras need a minimum of 2 Mbps upload and download speeds to properly work and with the Nest, you need to make sure your internet is not capped because it can use from 150GB to 600 GB of upload bandwidth per month.
They have 2 way audio which Nest edged out a bit for clarity and volume...
One caveat though...Nest only records the audio from the person on the camera and not the other person talking from the phone. If you need the footage later on to verify what was said...then you are only able to hear one side... check it out...
As to operating temperature..Ring has a wider range at -5 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit while the Nest only from 14 to 104 degrees...So, Nest might not work in too cold or too hot climates... I'll be testing the higher end here pretty soon when summer hits..
