A very nice
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review. I really really nice upgrade from the drop cam pro that I own. I just wish those would also work with the system, but this works really smoothly with the new Google app Google Home so I’m giving it a go.

I would recommend this to a friend An Outdoor Camera?
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is not exactly what I was expecting when I purchased it but it has turned out to be something I'm enjoying. The thing that really stood out for me was in the instructions where it mentions that the camera is not waterproof, only weatherproof. Hmm... an outdoor camera that isn't waterproof?? Maybe I didn't read the description carefully enough before I bought it. I ended up finding a protected spot for it that works well but that really stunned me. After a month of use, so far, so good.

Don't waste your money on this camera
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera sucks. I have 2 outdoor Nest wired cameras and I absolutely love them. I bought those years ago before Google and Nest merged. First, this camera cannot be added to your Nest app. I have read that the Nest app is going away and the Google home app will be the new one to use, but the Google home app sucks. The Nest app shows your cameras in one view when you open it. On the Google home app, you have to click on the camera to see the views. That's too many clicks and I can't see all my cameras in one view like on the Nest app. Second, the battery life sucks! We get maybe 5-6 days of battery out of this camera. Charging it once a week is just not feasible. I read online that this camera is a Google camera with a Nest logo and I feel like that's accurate. This is not as high-quality as my other Nest cameras. If I could return it, I would.

I would recommend this to a friend Nest Cam Cameras
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The cameras went up easy and working on my phone just fine. There were no instructions on how long to charge them. I had to go on line and look it up. Also the instructions in the package were printed in grey in 6/7 point type. VERY DIFFICULT TO READ. I had to take pictures and blow them up on my phone. Those marketing people think they are so clever, but they are not realistic.

Camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love how I can see everything on my porch with this camera and all the way to the road. The notifications are great to I get it right away. The only problem is battery life. But if you use a solar panel plug or outdoor plug it then it records 24/7 and you don’t have to plug it in every three days.

Great wireless camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this because I wanted to mount it in a place where I couldn't easily get power to. So far so good. Battery life seems to be great. Got it and installed it the day it was released and still have an estimated 4 months of battery life left. Impressed with the picture quality and ability to pick-up motion and determine if it's an animal or person.
