Great Cameras
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great cameras. Good for inside or outside. Outside ones last me about two weeks if not more. Inside ones about a weekd. I have mine recording all the time. These cameras will not consistently record unless they are connected to a wall outlet.
I would recommend this to a friend Good camera but could use some improvements
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup is simple with Home app. Visibility is above average at night with night vision off so long as there's a bit of ambient light, you can make out colors of people's clothing this way. Reviewing events and footage is simple. Complaints....you can only save footage from events and not all the footage captured, you have to subscribe to Nest Aware to have 24hour recording and even then you can only save "event" footage, there needs to be more settings for sensitivity so you tube your zones, cannot access from a computer.

Posted .Hi TheKracka, thanks for posting a review about Nest Cam (battery). We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with Nest Aware.
Nest Aware subscription provides more value for your money with its features. Aside from 30 days of Video History and 24/7 continuous recording, you have access to clips and time lapses and even customizing your own activity zones. The best thing about this subscription is that it will include all your Google Nest devices under one subscription unlike before where you have to pay a monthly subscription for each device.

Good Camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I hesitated on purchasing because it’s battery operated. Glad I picked it up. Video quality is very good, and the battery last almost 2 weeks! There is long power cord you can purchase seperately or a solar charger to attach if you are worried about battery life.
I would recommend this to a friend - Cons mentioned:App compatibility
Yes, it works. No, not with your Nest App or cams.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Camera does its job. But... surprise!! It doesn't work with your existing Nest App and existing Next cameras. This camera will not appear on your Nest App, and although your existing Nest cameras will appear on the Google Home app, much of their functionality will not. So to get everything you've paid for your existing Nest cameras and this new one, you have to switch back and forth between two different apps. Makes perfect sense, right?!?

Posted .Hi CDR1, thanks for sharing the details of your feedback about the Nest Cam (Battery). We’re sorry to hear of your disappointment in the lack of functionality in the Nest app. We’re aware that longtime Nest users enjoy viewing their Nest camera feeds from the Nest app and web app, however, our priority with this launch was building a complete experience for our new cameras and doorbell in the Google Home app.
We're always here to help you improve your experience. For any questions or concerns about your Nest Cam (Battery) and using it effectively in the Google Home app, please feel free to find us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

First Nest brand cam
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome camera. I was really debating between Ring & Nest. I have some Ring cams on other property already. I like the Nest better and I'll tell you why. The facial recognition is killer,love that. The battery seems to last a lot longer, about a month between charges in a busy house & lastly, I think a better looking camera. Great cam,you won't be disappointed.

Posted .Hi there Coolmom, thanks for choosing our Google Nest products. We're glad to hear that Nest Cam (Battery) has been great for you. We're sorry to hear that the battery and the exclusivity of the Google Home app for the new generation of Nest cameras fell short of meeting your expectations.
We wanted to make the Google Home app as the one place where you can control all your favorite Nest devices and other smart home devices with the Google Assistant. Here are some benefits you can get by using the Google Home app with your Nest Cam (Battery):
- Automatic security protections such as Suspicious activity detection, 2-Step Verification and Security Checkup.
- Your Google Nest devices and services will work together. For example, if you have a Nest Cam and a Nest Hub, just say, """"Hey Google, show me the backyard camera” to cast your camera stream to your display without any additional setup.
- One account to sign into both the Nest and Google Home apps.
- Your homes and home members will be aligned across the Nest and Google Home apps.
- If you're willing, you may set up your Nest cameras to the Google Home app. Check out this help article: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9893532
Battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select. Users can extend the battery life of their camera by adjusting video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and using activity zones to monitor specific areas. Here are some typical scenarios for your Nest Cam (Battery):
Busy: About 1.5 months battery life (about 20 - 25 recorded events per day)
Typical: About 3 months battery life (about 9 - 12 recorded events per day)
Quiet: About 7 months battery life (about 2 - 4 recorded events per day)
We highly recommend checking the frequency of events (per day) that you get with your Nest Cam (Battery). If the short battery life isn´t related to the frequency of events, then we may need to have a closer look at your device and understand what may be causing it.

Great Security Camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very easy to install and setup using the Google Home App. It has a nice magnetic mount that makes it easy to adjust the viewing angle. Having no screws is also very convenient for when it's time to give it a little clean, or if it not hooked up to an outlet and it's time to charge the battery.
