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.

I purchased this nest camera battery to replace another battery brand camera on the side of my house. I went into this knowing the new nest cam wouldn’t work with the Nest app and would have to use Google Home app to view it but having all cameras under one app is the end goal for myself. The camera itself so far seems to be great. I’m already subscribed to the nest subscription so it’s great not needing onboard storage and everything is uploaded to the cloud. My nest cam is roughly 9’ above ground whereas google recommends approx 6.5’ but it’s had no issues picking up people in the zone I’ve created. So far the battery has dropped 3% in just 24 hours but I blame the excessive motion it picked up yesterday. I found adding a zone for alerts only and setting the motion sensitivity to medium works best. I’m also using full resolution video so that will also deplete battery faster. I can see Google claims of battery life being accurate - pretty standard amongst other battery operated cameras, possibly a bit worse but this camera has much more onboard intelligence whereas my legacy nest cameras use the cloud for their processing. The big winner here will be when Google Nest releases their solar panel so it doesn’t need to be recharged every couple of months. The deduction of the star is simply due to Google’s inability to create at least one app that does everything. The Google Home app allows you to scrub events (battery) in the app or scrub video 24/7 if your battery cam is connected to a power source. Have an existing Nest doorbell or other older Nest cameras? Can’t scrub video - you’ll need to go back to the Nest app to do this on your other cameras where you’ll not find your new Nest Cam battery because it’s only in the home app! I’m sure (not really) google will introduce all these functions into the Home app, but why not now? Makes zero sense to me. Here are photos comparing the two cameras. The Nest cam has the much larger FOV.

Solid camera. Easy installation and setup - perfect for wireless cameras. Great video/photo quality, better video quality - especially night vision - than the Blink cameras I own. Would like to see more features in the app to give it more customization when it comes to all of the features, but still a wonderful product.
