"Nooie is still a very new brand that’s trying to make a name for itself in a huge market of products such as smart video doorbells. With Arlo, Nest, Ring and many others, it’s a tough thing to achieve, but if the first release of their Nooie Smart Video Doorbell is any indications of how they are doing, then let me tell you they are well on their way to success."

"From a design angle, Nooie has broken from the standard whites, black, and metallic hue focus of other doorbell cams. The speckled beige coloration provides a warm neutral option for those looking for an alternate color option from the norm."

"Nooie’s battery life is impressive, especially since most wireless Ring doorbells have a battery life of 6-12 months per charge. The less time you have to spend charging your smart doorbell, the more time it has to watch over your home. While a wired doorbell is the only way to ensure continuous power, a battery-powered doorbell like Nooie’s gives you the option to place it anywhere on the exterior of your home."

"You can use smart assistants like Alexa and Google to control and manage your Nooie doorbell, though Apple’s Siri isn’t compatible. My favorite way to use assistants is to pair it with a smart display like Google’s Nest Hub Max, which allows you to pull up a live stream of the camera if you ask. Alexa and Google-enabled smart speakers can also make announcements when someone presses the doorbell."

"When someone presses your doorbell, the Nooie app will cut to a live call screen with a preview of what the doorbell cam sees. From here, you can answer for two-way talk, end the alert, or respond with a pre-programmed quick response or use a custom one that you’ve recorded for yourself. If you want to change your current custom quick responses, it’s as simple as tapping the respective slot and recording over them. Nooie makes this so simple and easy and I couldn’t have asked for anything better."

"Besides the basic doorbell press, the detection elements on Nooie’s doorbell cam allow you to both adjust your battery life as well as any related notifications. The PIR (passive infrared) motion detection works at a default sensitivity of ten feet, but you can adjust it to either three feet or up to twenty feet to tweak your notification frequency. Human-shape detection is activated by default, so you won’t have to worry about any simple motion triggering an alert."

"One of the high points of the Nooie experience is paying for its cloud service remains completely optional. If you’re after continuous recording and want to replay events from your video history, you can choose between Nooie’s assorted plans. You either pay monthly or yearly while opting to either save videos for up to seven or thirty days before they’re deleted automatically."

"This was my first video doorbell experience and I have to admit right off the bat that Nooie made it beyond amazing in every sense of the way. Yes, I ran into a slight problem when trying to set things up using my Android device, though like I said, that could easily have been something on my end of things. Luckily I had an iOS device to try and that worked flawlessly."

"For $149.99, I personally say the Nooie Cam Doorbell is well worth it. Easy to setup and get working, easy to install, has amazing battery life as well as a crystal clear image. You can purchase directly from Nooie’s website, or you can purchase it through Amazon."
