Customer Ratings & Reviews

Purchase these after my home got broken into ever. Since nobody has even attempted to Google alerts me right away. If there's somebody unknown plus with the inboard facial recognition, it tells me anything. And everything I need to know about who's at my home. I have purchased several more since these. I now have 6 total Google cameras around my property and they work flawlessly. Battery life is great, but you can also add the third party. Solar charger and as long as it's mounted, it'll never die. It'll record continuously great value for the price, and you can't put a price on security.

Great! Works perfect for our nursery room! The 2-way audio makes it great and motion capture is also nice to have. covers the whole room.

Easy to set up, works well. I can observe my porch from a tablet or phone. Thinking of adding more.

These are the best cameras I have ever used. With the nest subscription being able to look at my live video for 30 days and motion for 60 days and when I have it plugged in, you can see 24 seven recording not many other cameras offer that. Super easy to use and set up. I even have multiple cameras set up at different homes and it lets you create tabs for each home and give access to each person that lives in that home without them being able to see every camera which is an amazing feature.

I’ve read a lot of reviews I’ve these cameras since I purchased them. I wanted to take time and test for myself for several months before coming up with my own opinion. If you use these wired, these cameras are GREAT! Not perfect but they are solid and the service works well. Google needs to do a lot to update their Google home app but I’m not going to demote these cameras because of the app, that’s what the AppStore feedback is for. Alerting works well and quickly it face recognition with these cameras are not always accurate. An example would be the cameras kept flagging one of my kids as our neighbor and they look nothing alike! As a stand alone battery camera, they are not that great. I spent a lot of time tweaking the camera settings, motion sensitivity and everything else in between and there were just a lot of inconsistencies. I tested with myself and the kiddos walking and running around the yard and sometimes it would see them, but most often I would get any hits. I also noticed it would capture an event unless you were with 12 feet, regardless of the sensitivity adjustments. I was really disappointed by this as I really wanted to use battery mode for the backyard and wired cameras for the front. Hopefully the next gen cameras solve this problem. So for me, as camera, YES! Battery camera, no to meh, at your own risk.

Video quality is good, easy to set up and easy to connect to app, no subcription needed to be able to use it

I have found these cameras to be somewhat flaky. Battery life varies considerably, according to usage - so anywhere from a few days to several weeks. It's a bit of a pain having to remove them each time to bring battery life back to 100%. Activity capture is not altogether reliable every time, and one of my two cameras has just died with 34% battery remaining. Google is replacing both cameras but I was unhappy to discover that the warranty on the replacement cameras will expire on the same date as the original pair, thus reducing the replacement warranty to just five months. Not particularly encouraging since one of the original cameras died after only seven months.

Photo quality was really good, it keeps a pretty good charge for about 2 weeks fully charged. I ended up installing solar panels for each camera and they work great.

Google cams is great. Easy set up and nice slick design. Only issue I had, was the battery. Last up to 3 months, you have fiddle with the settings. Otherwise buy extra plugs to charge into an outlet.

Quality of the Camera is what I've come to expect from Google/Nest but just keep in mind the battery life has a LOT of variability to it. Recommend a 3rd party solar panel or just going for the wired model otherwise you can be spending an annoying amount of time taking it down to charge.

When ADT originally installed all of my cameras at my home, I paid close attention. Because a part of my front area of the house was not covered, I opted to purchase another camera from Best Buy, which matched the rest of my cameras. I first programmed it into the system inside And completed a full charge. It may be confusing because these are battery cameras but you do keep them plugged in so the battery remains charged. I had to order a longer charge line because the line which comes with the camera is very short. Thankfully this additional charge Line and plug was not very expensive. I mapped out my installation and then proceeded to drill a hole through the front of my garage above the big garage door. I routed the cord and plugged it into a dedicated outlet in the garage. I then attached the magnet camera to the base and installed the safety line just in case the camera was knocked off the base. The camera works just as the rest of them do which were professionally installed. If this 70 year-old lady can do it, then I bet you can too.

I like the quality but would rather have wired. It is nice to have the wireless but recharging the battery is time consuming.

I purchased these for a family member who had the unfortunate experience of dealing with a neighbor who has anger issues and I must admit, I am impressed. Google has always been my go to when it came to cameras and other such hardware but these cameras in particular provide you with a very clear view of whatever it is you are monitoring. The handy magnet mounts are perfect and the fact that they do not require a power cord makes it all the more handy. They seem to hold a charge for about a month and than you'll have to recharge them again for about four hours. Other than this, I am completely happy with my purchase.

Great pictures easy to install easy to set up. It looks really good on a side of the house.

These cameras work like a charm. Pretty easy to program and install (if you hire Best Buy to do it.) Low monthly fee to store video via Google Home.

Works well. Easy to install and get recording. Plug in and works with app.

This is a small price to pay for the sense of security this camera offers! Easy to install and provides a very nice image!!

The camera has excellent battery life, clear video feed, and easy install. The magnetic plate allows you to easily adjust the camera to any angle. Night time camera feed is also good.

Really good quality cameras! Works really good at night with the night vision also I wish the battery would last I little longer but overall really good quality!

A flexible, smart, and capable home security camera that delivers excellent video quality and intuitive smart features, with battery life that varies by use case.
