Good camera. Google Home app is getting better.
I had two of these already, and I bought one for my sister and brother-in-law for Christmas because they wanted a camera. I also bought the long power cord for them in case they wanted to wire it. They have since let me know a few times they really like having the camera. As for me, I like how easy they are to install, since they're wireless. I even have one that is sitting in the yard on a metal bird feeder pole pointing toward the house. The magnetic base sticks to the pole, and there's no wiring needed. It's not far from the room where my wireless router is, so it connects fine. After I bought the long wire for my sister's camera, I got one for myself, and attached that to the wireless camera on my house so I don't have to worry about charging it and could see continuous past video like I can on my doorbell and on a wired Nest camera I have. But I haven't figured out yet why I still am only seeing even recordings where the camera captures an event, like a person or animal. I will need to contact Google support on that. One issue I have had, and have seen others report in reviews, is getting the camera to charge. I think if it completely drains, it takes a while for charging to start. You plug it in, and nothing happens. I've cleaned the contacts to make sure there was a good connection with the pins in the plug and the camera. I think you just have to wait if it's drained. It eventually starts charging. The long cord to make it a wired camera is the same as the charging cord. Just really long. I got the 10 meter one. The Google Home app is okay. The Nest app for my doorbell and wired camera is better. I think they are slowly improving the Home app, which is where I see my battery powered cameras. They do not appear in the Nest App.

Weatherproof, Not Battery-Proof
Good but not great overall. This camera is best suited for outdoor use and holds up well to the weather, but its motion detection can be inconsistent, occasionally failing to record activity that is clearly visible. Battery life is a major drawback, especially in high-traffic areas, and recharging is inconvenient if the camera is mounted in a hard-to-reach spot. Charging also takes a while, and the use of a proprietary charging cable instead of USB‑C is frustrating, since those cables are easier to lose and more expensive to replace. On the positive side, it excels as a portable, battery-powered Wi‑Fi camera that can be mounted almost anywhere, but given its limitations, it is worth considering alternative options from other brands or product lines.

The image quality is excellent
Google Camera is the best in terms of quality and recording features. I’ve used other camera brands before, but this one really stands out. The image quality is excellent, and the sensors are truly top-notch. Recording is smooth and reliable, and overall performance has been great. I’m very satisfied with this camera and would definitely recommend it.
