We have 3 Nest Hello doorbells and have gone through several Minnesota winters with temperatures as low as -18 Fahrenheit (-28 Celsius) without any problems due to the cold.

)There is a separate very long thread about the Nest Hello's internal battery starting to fail when the doorbell is around 2 years old, causing it to go offline for a minute or so when the doorbell is pressed. Our oldest doorbell has had one instance where the video blanked out.  https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Cameras-and-Doorbells/Nest-Hello-Doorbell-cuts-out-when-butto....)

New install wired all ok yet no indoor chime. Book says don’t work below -15C. Thought that was problem. Hour on phone w great tech guy Mark. Went into chime duration even though not electronic chimes but older mechanical ones and set to 10 seconds. Worked!! Then turned off duration and it’s worked good so far today which is day 1. 😋😀😀😋 maybe jolted some lazy circuit …:
