    Easy setup. Packaged well with everything included to mount. These can be charger and work fine but have more options for recording and historical playback if connected to power.

    Picture is great but you can only sync with the Home app and NOT the Nest which i prefer for camera viewing. Does NOT do 24/7 recording.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Hi JustMe, thanks for sharing your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with the change to the Google Home app for Nest Cam (Battery).

      We 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. Here are some benefits you can get by using the Google Home app with Nest Thermostat:
      - Automatic security protections such as Suspicious activity detection, 2-Step Verification and Security Checkup.
      - 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.

      Nest Cam (battery) can support up to 10 days of continuous video recording (CVR) and 24/7 video history if hardwired to power and subscribed to Nest Aware Plus ($12 a month for all of your cameras, speakers, and displays on the same home structure).

      Our support team would be happy to help you with your support concerns by reaching out to us here:  https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Best outdoor camera, but not your cheapest option

    This camera really is the easiest and most compatible option on the market. Installation is a breeze, you can plug it in for uninterrupted use and reserve the battery if there's a power outage. Yes, it costs more but you get what you pay for. If you're simply looking for the cheapest option, this is not it. If you want the best option, this is it... in my opinion.

    I bout this camera for use in my backyard. DIdnt have any nearby wiring and didnt want to have to keep charging it, so I got the solar panel which best buy also sells. Works great! Have had the camera out there for a few months and havent had to charge it once. And my kids are out there setting it off all the time

    This device is great. I bought two then bought three more for a total of one outdoor and four indoor. I have three in the basement to cover any water issues while traveling, one on the first floor, and one looking out the window in the backyard. The ability in low light is stunning. Note I bought the solar panel for the outdoor one.
