Great For Google Lovers - Google Home Software Lac
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At the time of this review I have see lots of work to be done in the Google Home app where these new cameras need to be viewed. Many features such as video time scanning and clips creations are missing. No complaints of the cameras build quality or video feed. Think the shortcomings of the Google Home software can easily be remedied as long as Google is willing to fix the software. For those users that currently have Nest cameras and want to add to their arsenal of security cameras I'm sorry to say that these are not compatible with the Nest App and MUST be viewed within the Google Home app (lacking software features currently found in Nest app).

Posted .Hi Jose, thanks for giving us your honest feedback about the Nest Cam (battery), and we’re sorry to hear that the Google Home app lacks some software features found in the Nest app.
Our long term plan is to use the Google Home app as the one place you can control all of your favorite Nest and other smart home devices, as well as Google Assistant. In the near future, we’ll allow users to set up previous Nest devices and have full control in the Home app. Users with older cameras can view their camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams. Our team is working on bringing full functionality to the Google Home app so all of your cameras can be set up and controlled in one place.
We're always here to help you improve your experience. If you have any issue with your Nest camera and with using it effectively in the Google Home app, please feel free to find us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Nice Cameras for Existing Google Home
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Simple to add to my existing Google Nest products, battery life is good, though I hardwired one now. Plenty of other cameras cheaper but the quality is good, one of my kids was helping install and dropped the camera and not even a scratch.

Nest Camera Battery.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was waiting for a while to have a nest camera that is battery supported. Although don't like the fact that it won't give the 24hr recording feature unless it's plugged in. Overall the camera is great it does what it needs to do in my opinion.

Good camera so far…
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was already aware of camera only being part of google home, not nest app. Which is fine since I use both. My only complaint is battery life, doesn’t last long on balanced setting. I already purchased cable, so it’s hard wired now.

Nest for the win
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nest camera video quality is very clear. I have a ring security cam, and the best is more clear. Only con is it doesn't have a battery to pop out to charge.

No complaints bulletproof cam
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Long time nest camera user here since 2016. I’ve never had one issue with these cameras and I find the pricing for the service to be very reasonable.
I would recommend this to a friend Great wireless camer
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have this camera set up looking down my alley. I love that it is wireless and connects easily to my wifi. My only dislike is the fact it only takes clips of activity instead of 24/7 footage like my other Nest cameras. If I want 24/7 footage I would have to plug it into a power source outlet instead of the solar power panel I have connected to it. And the fact that I have to use the Google app to view footage instead of the Nest app. But I wouldn’t want any other camera.

Super easy set up
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was super easy to set up. I put it off thinking I would need to drill holes and mount it but I was wrong. The magnets are very strong and the battery lasts for a month or more depending on how often you use it. The magnet on the base holds very firmly to any metal and the camera attaches to the base with magnets as well and you can position it however you need it. It charges very quickly and lasts a long time.

No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from Nest Support
Posted .Hi Sam1988G, it’s great to have your feedback on Nest Cam (battery). We hear your concerns about the cameras’ battery life, and we’re here to help.
Besides the camera settings that you select, cold temperatures can also affect the battery life. As the temperature gets colder, the battery life gets shorter. Also, the battery in your camera or doorbell won't charge at temperatures below 32°F (0°C). You can connect your camera to a power outlet using the included USB cable. This will power the camera so it doesn't need to use the battery.
On the other hand, we’d like to learn more about your situation to find out why the battery drains faster than usual, and why it takes 24 hours to charge them. Please contact us whenever you have time using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Good value
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to set up but doesn't work with older app if you already had some that you have been using before. I have 5 outside/inside cameras and have to use the newer app but is not as good as the older app from a few years ago.

Outstanding cameras for security
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The video quality is outstanding in all levels of light. Really love the ability to create an activity zone to greatly minimize false positive alerts and truly focus on the areas we're most wanting to monitor.

Good cameras
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy set up. Great cameras. You will have to purchase the google nest plan to keep videos for 6 months instead of them deleting after 24 hours. But even without it you should be able to download needed videos. Overall they are a good purchase.
