||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These cameras work fine under daytime conditions but don't show anything in the dark. For that purpose, you'd need to get ones with motion sensor lights or put your camera in a well-lit area. They cover a broad range. I added solar panels to keep them charged.

I would recommend this to a friendEasy set-up
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The price is high but the video quality is amazing. The set up is simple and anyone can do it. The online guide helps if you are lost as well. If you wanting to upgrade your security cameras these are worth every cent.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great camera but buyer beware. If you already have 1st generation (regular camera), 2nd generation (IQ), or the doorbell, this 3rd generation camera will not work with NEST app. You have to download and use Google Home app in order to use new cameras. I can see all 3 plus doorbell cameras on Google Home, but if I wanted to scroll through time on an older camera, I have to switch back to the NEST app. Don't get me wrong, quality of newer cameras are better than older models. Just be aware.

Posted .Hi JabreakitJubawdit, we truly appreciate your time sharing your feedback with us about the Nest Cam (battery). The new Nest cameras and doorbell are exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience with your speakers and displays. A Nest Aware subscription applies to all of your cameras, speakers, and displays in the same home structure. You’ll be able to view both your old and new Nest Cams together in the Home app, and we’re working on bringing the full functionality to the Home app so all your cameras can be controlled and set up in one place.
Your feedback and experience are important to us. If there's anything we can be of help, please let us know anytime at: ttps://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
Nest cameras
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Some of the better cameras on the market, easy setup, only downside to me is the google home app
I would recommend this to a friendEasy everything
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These cameras were easy to install and easy to set up with our Google Hub. These are not hardwired so we separately purchased solar panels specifically for these cameras and they are great. The picture is clear and the microphone/speakers are sharp.

Google nest camera
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best outdoor camer for the price great quality video and images
I would recommend this to a friendOk but hardwiring would reduce trouble
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice clear picture. Battery life could be improved. Otherwise hardwiring would be less a hassel.

Posted .Hi there, thanks for your feedback. We´re sorry to hear about the poor battery life and hardwiring option for Nest Cam (Battery).
Nest camera 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)
If the battery life of your Nest Cam (Battery) doesn´t meet the recommended battery life above, then it´s important to check the frequency of events (per day) that you get on 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. You may contact our support team for further assistance by visiting us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
Good cameras, but pricey.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these cameras, but they are very expensive for what they are. Note that if you live in a cold environment such as I do (Anchorage, AK) the cameras will become inoperative when the temperatures get below freezing. Also, you have to subscribe to the Nest Aware Plus service to get full history, etc., this is $10/month or $120 per year.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Camera's
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these camera's inside and they work great. I have others outside and they work well, also. The cord is a bit of an eyesore, but I want to make sure they are always working. They caught our neighbor's construction worker backing into our mailbox. They couldn't deny it because we had evidence. Very easy to set up and I can watch from my iPhone.
I would recommend this to a friendGood cameras, software is subject to improving
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Camera work as intended, they are very easy to install and seamlessly can be integrated to Google Home/Nest. The only downside (that make me rate them as 4) is the software. There is configuration for at home & out, however compared to other cameras/software in the market, there isn't configuration based on schedule (specifically while sleeping).
I would recommend this to a friendCan’t really use the Nest App for the newer Cams
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m a little bit disappointed that I can no longer use my nest app to view the video feed on newer nest cams and forced to use google home app. I have a few older gen Nest cameras/doorbell camera so I have to use both google home app and nest app to view the video feeds. It’s very annoying to switch between apps instead of having it in one app and I don’t really like using the google home app to view the cameras.

Posted .Hi nate17, we really appreciate you for sharing your feedback with us about the Nest Cam (battery). We can imagine how having to use two different apps can be an inconvenience for you, and we’re aware that longtime Nest users enjoy having the option to view the Nest camera feeds from the Nest app. However, our priority is to create an integrated experience with other Nest and smart home devices. While the new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Google Home app, users with previous versions of Nest cameras, like you, can view your camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams.
We request for your patience as we’re working on a seamless solution to create a better user experience. Meanwhile, we suggest having the latest version of the Google Home app that may improve camera playback controls to make it easier to play, pause, and navigate between events from the camera history view for cameras set up in the Google Home app. And if you need help with any concerns about the performance and functionality of the camera, you're always welcome to let us know here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
Good cameras
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great cameras and easy to set up and install. Good but not great battery life.
I would recommend this to a friendGoogle nest wireless camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. Very easy to install and setup! Clear quality. Everything is as expected
I would recommend this to a friendVideo quality is good
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think the quality of the video seems good. The app is ok. The only issue is that in the Google Home app you can not set alarm times. The Nest app did, but the new cameras do not work on the Nest app. I would like it to alert me during specific times of day/night when I know I am gone regularly instead of alerts always on or always off.

Great cameras!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cameras have great video quality and easy to install/setup with your Google account. Access via phone anywhere anytime. You can extend the record hours with a subscription but you can do without it too. Charge last pretty long depending on weather conditions. Great purchase, might get one more!
I would recommend this to a friendSimple and functional
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Have had these cameras for two weeks and very pleased up until now. Easy to mount/install, simple to use, good functionality (in terms of picture quality, ability to zoom, battery-sparing operating modes as default, magnetic mount component, speaker functionality, etc.). Clearly not a serious home security device, but a good first step in establishing basic external surveillance
