Can these be used as outdoor cameras? null

I would recommend the nest outdoor cam.

Yes, but, you have to buy the accessory $30usd around there to encapsulate the camera and then use in the outdoors. Or just keep it close to the windows or- use outdoors but store inside on rainy days...

No. They are not rated to be used outdoors. If you want to use them outdoors, you will need to get an enclosure for them and this is NOT a configuration that is supported by Nest - though there are MANY people that use this very configuration without issue. Just get a quality enclosure and you should be fine.

These are not rated for outdoor use and would likely not survive if they get wet. A company named DropCases (plural or singular) makes weather rated cases specifically for NestCams. I have two of them in use and they work. However, the audio is somewhat muted by the case. I can hear things going on around the camera, but people can't seem to hear me talk. It could just be a volume issue with the speaker on the camera itself in an outdoor location.

Yes but depending on weather issues you might experience fogging of the lense at times.

They are not weather proof. The camera can be placed outdoor but should be protected from the weather.

No, I don't think they are designed for outdoor.

Yes, the cameras can be used outdoors.
