October 1, 2025 – Google has officially rolled out its newest lineup of Gemini-powered smart home devices, including next-generation Nest Cams, Nest Doorbell, and the Google Home Speaker, marking a major step in bringing multimodal AI into everyday households.
Nest Cams and Doorbell: AI Cameras Built for Gemini
Google’s new lineup includes:
Nest Cam Indoor (3rd gen) – $99.99
Nest Cam Outdoor (2nd gen) – $149.99 ($249 two-pack)
Nest Doorbell (3rd gen) – $179.99
All three feature 2K HDR video, the widest and tallest field of view yet, and dramatically improved low-light performance. Independent testing by DXOMARK ranked them first in their class for image quality.
These cameras are built not just for recording, but for AI-driven understanding, powering new Gemini for Home features:
AI Notifications: Richer alerts like “dog jumps out of playpen.”
Ask Home Search: Query your video history with natural language, e.g., “What happened to the vase in the living room?”
Home Brief: Summarizes hours of footage into a digestible recap.
Each device comes with six hours of included video history, built-in alerts for people, packages, animals, and vehicles, and advanced zoom previews.
Privacy, Design, and Sustainability
End-to-end encrypted video and two-step verification by default.
Clear green LED indicator for transparency.
Devices use recycled, UV-resistant materials with plastic-free packaging.
