Wish battery lasted longer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good quality however the battery lasts me a little over 2 months with the best quality and medium sensitivity. Hoped it would last a bit longer. I turned the quality to the lower setting but it didn’t help much. You have to use the google home app to view video but it can sometimes take long to load or view events. The Nest app was much better in this. Shame It doesn’t work there.

Posted .thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry for the poor battery life with your Nest Cam (Battery).
Battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select. You can extend the battery life of your 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:
- 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 you're willing to try, we 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 Nest Cam (Battery) and understand what may be causing it. You may contact our support team for further assistance here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Good cameras
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They are good quality for wireless. Sometimes the feed won't pull up when you try to view it but usually backing out and opening it again fixes it. Also they do not like cold weather. It doesn't effect video quality just battery life.

Easy 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.

Nest Indoor outdoor camera.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this product works great. Got it installed yesterday by Best Buy and didn’t take long at all to install. I have a Google Nest Camera With the floodlight that I’ve had for over a year now, so I purchased a second camera. Google Home app helps me monitor the two cameras plus I’ve got installed a Yale lock system which is also controlled with Google Home and nest thermostat and I can also control with my Google Home app. I have my smart home set up going on . the two cameras in the lock I purchased from Best Buy. And because I’m a total tech member, I had Best Buy come and install all three products.

Mostly Disappointing- I'll tell you why below
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Aesthetically: much bigger than wired counterparts & color options missing Function: works well and has auto switching low and normal light, but no in-depth options like my other hub camera system, with regards to sensitivity, light indicator options, or with cheap generic cams from over 5 years ago that offer all those options with similar quality and selectable windows for motion and tons of other options so long as you use software that is the color of the sky and a part of your eye. Dirty: You will not be able to record to external drives, and it is an impossible task right now to connect to Nest Hub for video calls. Recording is limited without subscription to Nest Aware. I would not buy again If you're remotely tech savvy, get an old PC and buy security cam software and 3rd party cams, which are better and not limited by design.

I own 7 of these so I know what I’m talking about.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have several Google-Nest cameras, both indoor and outdoor. They are all very easy to install and link to your internet. Google has changed a number of things on this new generation camera. Some good and some bad. First, all their outdoor cameras are now battery powered; you can add a power cable (extra cost) that the older version came with. These cameras are no longer part of the Nest ecosystem so you must download the Google Home app to view the camera. I prefer the Nest app but it seems Google has abandon it in favor of their own. This camera will deliver very clear pictures both in daylight and at night. Motion detection is excellent.

Well Designed
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Integrated with older Nest/Google system very easily. Battery lasts several weeks (depending on the setting) before needing to charge. I have these in odd locations so hardwiring was not an option. I eventually added the solar charging panel and haven't had to take them down to charge since (even in sub-zero temps). Great clarity and wide field of view. Very reliable.

It's wireless
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So it works, but the fact that you have to take it down and charge it and then put it back up requires a ladder and time and then repositioning. Granted we could have mounted it a little lower, but we are interested in the hardwired version for the future.

Great product!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall great security camera! I would definitely recommend getting the long power cable so you can hardwire it in though. Otherwise it goes into sleep mode to preserve battery and then is completely reliant on the motion sensor which is not always sensitive enough to pick up motion.

Great cameras
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I set up one camera with wire and the other via battery. Battery life is OK, but I would recommend wiring if possible. I was a little bummed that they dont work with the legacy Nest app or online portal, but the legacy cameras do show up in Google Hime. Takes a little time to get used to it.

Posted .Hello there, BLTPHX. Thanks for sharing your experience with using the Nest Cam (battery). We’re sorry to hear that using the Home app, to control and manage your camera settings, is below your preference.
We’re aware that longtime Nest users enjoy viewing their Nest camera feeds from the Nest app. However, the Nest Cam (battery) is exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience with our other Google Nest devices. We also wanted to make the Google Home app as the one place you can control all your favorite Nest and other smart home devices with the Google Assistant. Other benefits include the following:
- Automatic security protections such as Suspicious activity detection, 2-Step Verification and Security Checkup.
- Your Google Nest devices and services will work together.
- 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 need help with using the camera in the Home app effectively, please let us know by visiting here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
