What the differences mean
One camera or two
The Wyze Duo Cam Video Doorbell has a second, lower camera aimed at the ground, so parcels at the mat are watched separately. The Google Nest Doorbell (wired, 3rd Gen) relies on a single tall view of 166 degrees diagonal to catch both the visitor and the step.
Power and install
The Wyze Duo Cam Video Doorbell runs on a battery rated for about 6 months and can be wired as an option. The Google Nest Doorbell (wired, 3rd Gen) must be wired, so it needs existing doorbell wiring but never asks you to recharge.
Night vision
Color night vision is on the Wyze Duo Cam Video Doorbell only. The Google Nest Doorbell (wired, 3rd Gen) has black-and-white night vision.
Storage
The Wyze Duo Cam Video Doorbell has a microSD slot for local recording. The Google Nest Doorbell (wired, 3rd Gen) keeps the past 6 hours of events free and an hour on the device, and relies on Nest Aware for the rest.
Platform support
The Google Nest Doorbell (wired, 3rd Gen) is documented for Google Home, Alexa, SmartThings and Home Assistant. The Wyze Duo Cam Video Doorbell works with Google Home and Alexa, and its Home Assistant support is not documented.

What owners say
Owners of both doorbells praise 2K video that reads clearly, and each group says some features sit behind a paid plan. Google Nest Doorbell (wired, 3rd Gen) owners single out alerts that accurately separate people, packages and vehicles, a Live View that opens almost instantly and an install of about twenty minutes, while they grumble that continuous history and familiar faces need Nest Aware, that no chime is included and that it can pause in deep cold. Wyze Duo Cam Video Doorbell owners call the second camera watching the ground a game-changer for parcels, like the color night vision, the included chime and the swap-in batteries, and mention that longer clips and vehicle detection need Cam Plus, that some units miss motion or fail to connect, that the battery can drain quickly and that customer service is weak.
