All Google Assistant doorbells do this. Open Google Home app, go to live view for the doorbell, ‘…’ icon top right, Settings, then turn on Voice Announcements. It explains exactly what what this option does on that page, which is produce visitor announcements on GA speakers which of course includes the Google Home Mini. Not really sure what the point of “proving” this is but here are some screenshots of this setting for the Reolink doorbell. It works exactly as OP wants, ie chime on a Google Home Mini when the doorbell button is pressed. https://preview.redd.it/ljjk8i5ddp8e1.jpeg?width=2358&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7adfd732599ad20e40fb70566a177af3b821aac0 I also have Arlo and Aosu doorbells on other properties which work in exactly the same way, also chiming to one or more Google Home Minis. This has worked for many years.
r/googlehome • Battery operated, non video doorbell which would chime through Google home mini ->We use Arlo and don’t pay for anything extra. We had the doorbell and 3 cameras.
r/BuyItForLife • Wired doorbell\video camera that doesn't require a subscription? ->I had the Arlo doorbell cam but just moved away from them. Now have the aqara doorbell cam, very easy to install and set up. I had minimal issues with the Arlo camera doorbell. I moved away because of price increases. Good luck with your choice
r/HomeKit • Are all the compatible HomeKit doorbell cameras full of issues? ->It’s ok except for angle of camera. It should cover height rather than wide. Had a few issues that their tech department fixed remotely. I miss my arlo
r/Aqara • Thoughts on Aqara Doorbell G4 ->Not Arlo. They’re useless without the Arlo subscription, and they keep increasing the price and decreasing what is covered.
r/HomeKit • Can you Recommend a good HK Doorbell Camera? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
