    I bought this camera as a proof of concept for four more cameras. Pro's are the google cloud service, HD video and polished overall product, the kind you expect from google. The downside is the range a camera can see a face. I placed this camera on the corner of my house facing the driveway. I also placed it in the different locations for the other cameras. I was impressed with the range for 5gz wifi. I much prefer this option to the box and 8 POE camera systems.

    These have been working well and were easy to set up. Removing a star, as I''m little disappointed that the wired connections changed from the prior model and it wasn't clearly noted, so will need to now purchase the separately.

    For a rechargeable camera the battery life is fantastic even in the winter you can expect around 4-5 weeks of life even with temperatures down in the tens. Picture quality is great and I like that I can set zones to only capture certain areas.

    The original nest camera has better quality video however this new nest/google is wireless therefore much easier to install. I opted to buy and install with a solar charger to avoid the recharging, so far that has kept the camera at full charge.

    Misses way too much action

    Super disappointed in the performance of this camera. The video quality is great, when it actually captures video. I have this mounted above the garage door to watch our driveway, I would say that it picks up about 70% of the actual movement that goes by the camera. Many times we have come home and completely misses the car pulling in the garage. When it does capture an event, it misses the first half of the action almost every time. I have all the settings to max out the amount of video over battery. Just can't count on it capturing everything like our Nest doorbell. That doorbell performs like I hoped this would. Would NOT get this again if I had the choice.

      Hi Justin, thanks for sharing your feedback with our support team. We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with the camera performance for Nest Cam (Battery).

      Motion detection on Nest Cam (Battery) can be affected by changes in the light level, and shadows moving across the frame like when a cloud moves in front of the sun. This also includes other movements within the camera's field of view like trees or bushes swaying. If you're not getting any alerts or notifications, we recommend trying out the steps below:
      1. Change the Activity Zones on your camera. You can delete your existing Activity Zone and create a new one in any area within your camera's field of view. Just make sure that none of the zones you create overlap.
      2. Change the angle of your camera and account for the lighting in the surrounding area.
      3. Restart your Camera.

      We'd like to help you troubleshoot the motion detection issue further with your Nest Cam (Battery). If you´re willing to try, please contact our support team so we can provide further assistance using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Very easy to install and setup in the Google home app. Satisfied with video quality and overall product. Very very disappointed in the lack of integration with the nest app. Unfortunately I’m all in on the meet cameras. If I were in the position that this was my first camera purchase I would definitely buy into the Arlo family.

    Quality better than expected and battery life pretty good, quality not as good as the old nest cam IQs but the install and use is really easy, wish there was a way to hide the power cable, right now it’s exposed so could be cut, but also it’s battery operated so won’t cut the feed. The magnet is ridiculously strong though so it works pretty well and easy to adjust. New price point is good though

    Im giving this a 4 star. It would have been 5 if it fit my purpose but not giving it a 1 because it doen't fit my need. We got this to replace the wired camera that we use to monitor my sons room. I fully charged it before use and it hasnt been a full day yet and I'm down to 60%. I like the quality & video clarity and features though. I'm taking them back because its just not for us.

      Hi 19ant89, we're glad to hear that you like Nest Cam (Battery). We're sorry to hear about the fast discharging issue you are experiencing.

      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 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. We recommend contacting our support team for further assistance by visiting us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Easy to add and setup with the google home app. I was not too excited about recharging these. But they have lasted months before they need a charge. Great video quality.
