Solid camera addition
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We already had a NestCam system, but we had some blind spots around the perimeter. As these are newer than the originals, they don't show up in the Nest App, but everything shows up in the Google Home app. The battery life is decent, with active cameras lasting 2 weeks, less active units lasting less.

ONLY 1 Charger & Cable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would have given this a 5 star rating, but I bought the 2 pack and it only came with 1 cube and 1 charging cable. How is this a 2 pack with only 1 plug? If I would have purchased them seperately, they each would have had a plug. Am I supposed to climb a ladder everytime the battery gets low and swap the plugs? I would not reccomend this bundle. I would purchase the cameras seperately so you have all parts. On the other hand, I do love the cameras and they are excellent quality.

You won't be disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great cameras, I was on the fence about how long the battery would last since charging weekly to monthly wouldn't be convenient. I charged one fully and place on the front of the house and with less than 12 alerts a day and checking in a few times it estimates 4 months till recharge. The one on back porch that see nothing most of the time says 7 months till recharge. I also love that they are so easy to move around and relocate if you want.

Good cameras
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy set up. Great cameras. You will have to purchase the google nest plan to keep videos for 6 months instead of them deleting after 24 hours. But even without it you should be able to download needed videos. Overall they are a good purchase.
I would recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:App compatibility, Battery life
Not the best deal for sure
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is nearly impossible to hook up more than 1 camera. Battery and camera is all in one not separable. You can not mount them very high and keep the quality. Google has only agreed to support them for 5 years. I took mine back and bought Arlo instead. 10 x better. Has solar charger, better zoom, easier set up, spitlight, cheaper and they give you an extra battery. It will not work on same app with nest door bell.

I wouldn't recommend it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this assuming it would work with my Nest phone app. Unfortunately the new cameras only work with Google's app which is terrible quite frankly. also, if the camera is not plugged into a power source (running on battery) it will not save motion events for more than 3 hours which isn't very helpful. If I had it to do over again I would have went with something else, which is sad as Nest was a great product.

Never had a issue
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have several of these cameras around the house. Slowly been replacing the old nest cameras. I just wish they had the same fuctions as the old nest cameras but the new features are good as well.

Great addition
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great addition to my home security setup. Yes you have to use the Google Home app. I honestly don’t see why this is such a big deal to some people. The cameras catch and record more with better sensitivity if you have them connected to a power source, but for the areas where this isn’t possible they are suitable. I have one on my front porch wired, adding another to the side for battery and I just ordered the floodlight for the back yard. Very happy.

Posted .Hi WaltDog, it's wonderful to hear that you liked the quality and features of Nest Cam (Battery). We're sorry to hear about the delays with the notifications.
Motion detection for Nest Cam (Battery) can be affected by changes in the light level, and shadows moving across the frame like when a cloud moves in front of the sun. This also includes other movements within the camera's field of view like trees or bushes swaying. If you're not getting any alerts or notifications, we recommend trying out the steps below:
1. Change the Activity Zones on your camera. You can delete your existing Activity Zone and create a new one in any area within your camera's field of view. Just make sure that none of the zones you create overlap.
2. Change the angle of your camera and account for the lighting in the surrounding area.
3. Restart your Camera.
