Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great product but I have to admit the AI features are still needing a lot of refinement.

I like the cameras but expectes a bit more...quality is not the best and dont like the fact that i have to keep charging them, but it gets the job done...

My installation was done in our 3 season room so it is an enclosed situation. Pairs easy with app. A few screws and you are ready to go.

Product is easy to install, pairs well with phone and opperates as advertised. Installed outside with a view of backdoor and surrounding area.

Bought these the week of Black Friday & so far I’m thoroughly impressed & pleased! Setup & installation was breeze (if you know what you’re doing). I’m happy with build & quality. The only negative thing I can say is the battery drains rapidly in a high traffic motion area where the camera will be used at. So I had to purchase the outdoor weathered cable so the battery would have constant power.

This is a replacement for one that stopped holding charge

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

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.

Easy set up, works great with clear picture. Wish battery life was longer and could record more than three hours without a subscription

As wireless device installation is easy and the image quality is great.

Was excited with my initial purchase of this product, but learned just through my own experience that it has its limitations. Pro: It’s Wireless This was the number one selling point for me. This aspect though, draws minimally or greatly on the battery, depending on how you set up. It could last you months, or it could be drained in a week. When I purchased this, I saw the Nest name and had previously purchased Nest indoor cams that I am very pleased with so I didn’t hesitate to buy this wireless outdoor model. Well this is Nest by Google. No pairing into my existing Nest App. Had to download the Google Home App to operate it. The camera has very crisp video and great sound pick up. My live video does go black screen for a second and then picks back up about every minute or so. Night vision is not bad up close, but depth is not the greatest. One of the Cons on this totally wireless camera is that there are only the last three hours of recorded events available whereas if you use an actual power cord, it will evidently continue to record and store if you choose. The other Nest indoor cameras were a good model aside from the yearly subscription fees. This product to me just seems like more of a glorified trail cam that requires WiFi and constant recharging. Going to purchase an aftermarket power cord for it to see if I like the performance any better. Three stars is the best I can give it at this point.

I love these cameras. I miss the Nest app. I am not a fan of the google home app. This new camera does not come with an outdoor cord which I think is ridiculous to have to pay for an outdoor cord when purchasing this expensive outdoor camera. The camera itself is great. The battery life is terrible and it cannot 24 hour record or even recors sound events with just a battery.

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.

The battery cameras were easy to install in brick walls and have good quality. I have multiple Google Home Hubs in various rooms and the Nest Hub Max in the kitchen. It's easy to ask Google to show me the cameras and see the one I want displayed on the hub. I was a little bugged the camera two pack only came with one charging cable. Why sell two cameras and only provide one cable? I had to charge one camera before I could charge the second. It mentions that only one cable is included on the box, but still dumb in my opinion. It wasn't a deal breaker, but the need to migrate my Nest account to Google was a negative for me. I liked the ability to look at my cameras on a web browser on a larger computer monitor. I also don't like that I have some cameras now that I can use on my Google Home app and cameras that I need to use the Nest app for unless I want to reset those and set them up again. One other issue I have is that I can't share my camera feeds with say my parents that like to watch my kids out in the yard since we don't live close. This process was easy to do with Nest. With Google, I can share my cameras, but I have to grant full access to my account to anyone I want to share with. The last thing I need is someone messing around with my settings because they now have full access. Please fix this by using what you already had working in the Nest App. I don't understand how Google's app didn't at least have all of the functionality of the Nest app before forcing us to move there. I don't hate the Google app and use it often with all of my compatible smart devices. However, I think the app could already be better since their Nest option had some of these features people like me want, but did not get moved over (at least yet). Negative comments aside, I do like the cameras and they serve their purpose. I currently have four of these cameras in place around my home. I purchased two, liked them, then bought two more while still on sale. After setting all four up two weeks ago, the average remaining battery life for the four is 70%.

This unit works good, but pricey. It can zoom in and out. But it doesn’t have a pan feature exactly. Nor does it have a rotating feature. It’s just static one position unit, but it does have night vision. Good and reliable with Wi-Fi. I’ve never used the battery feature on it so I don’t know how long the batteries last. It’s always plugged in to a power source.

Cameras are easy to install and work on battery life. The night vision is decent and these are suitable for home security.

These cameras are really just "ok." Their main advantage is the easy installation/setup and their native integration into the Google Home app. I bought these cameras to supplement my Google Nest IQ cameras and Nest Hello that I bought a few years ago, and these are a major step down in terms of quality. The picture is not that great, especially while on battery power. They are battery operated with the option of upgrading to power with the purchase of an additional cord (not included). If you run them off the battery, you will not be able to see a live view unless you turn the camera on. On battery, they only capture and record triggers-- which, if that is what you want and you are not already committed to Nest, there are much better options out there (like the eufyCam 2 Pro which come with a 365-day battery vs the 2 months of Battery Nest Cam). NOTE: If you are already a Nest user like me, you should know that these cameras do not work with the Nest app. They can only be viewed/installed in the Google Home app or on your Google Hub device. You will be able to see all of your Nest cameras in the Home app, but not vice versa.

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.

camera shows good picture quality and does really a good job of picking people up nearby, the only thing i dont like about it is that the battery drains quickly if you don't change the setting to more battery life and less recording. I also like that i can hear and talk to people thru the app

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.
