    Works as intended, and works well. The 60 a year is a great price for facial recognition and a month storage of footage.

    I wish I stayed with Ring. Google nest cameras are junk. Even with excellent WiFi coverage in your house, these cameras sure do lose connection a lot. So much so that if you have an emergency where you need footage of a crime, especially one in progress, don’t count on these to give you 100% liveview without interruption. Don’t get me started on the nationwide complaint about the floodlight camera this last year having blurry video during night time- all because of a horrible update from Google- that issue took months on end to fix, and still isn’t near the clarity during day time use. You cannot opt out of updates as well. The features are limited if youre used to RING cameras. The dashboard needs a lot of work. Having to click 4 menus to change your area where you want the camera to catch movement is annoying- if you lose connection, you’re unable to change anything. Again, goes back to the horrible WiFi reception these have. I use 100% Google WiFi products, specifically their mesh system, and these cameras constantly drop live video feed, both in the dashboard and while viewing a camera individually

      Hi there, Austin. We’re sorry to hear about your concerns with your Nest Cam (battery) and this is not the experience we want you to have. Your feedback is appreciated and we have taken note of it.

      We recommend checking for objects such as mirrors and refrigerators between the cameras and your router as these items could block the connection. If you have a good Wi-Fi connection but the camera is offline, this can happen if the device gets too hot or too cold, and can be avoided by these:

      - Your camera should not be exposed to direct sunlight
      - Avoid placing your camera near objects that can cause overheating like light bulbs, lamps, large equipment/appliances, air vents, etc. Your camera needs good air circulation. Never install it in any kind of small box or enclosure as this can cause overheating.
      - If mounted outdoors, you can install it under an eave or overhang, or even install a small shade above it.

      It's important to us that we provide you with the best help possible and identify the issues with connectivity. We recommend that you reach out to our support specialists at our Google Help Page: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Zero issues with this device. The lack of power cable allowed me to put cameras where I needed without all the extra work. I think I’m going on 30 days or so with no battery issues.

    Nice clear picture and the battery life is pretty good. I have dogs that go outside several times a day and activate the camera and it still lasts for several weeks. Highly recommend!
