Posted .Hi Lovethecover, thanks for sending in your feedback on the battery life of your Nest Cam (battery). We're sorry to hear that your experience with the device didn't meet your expectations. Battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and selected camera settings. Your battery when busy should last about 1.5 months. This would be about 20 - 25 recorded events per day. If you're experiencing less activity than this and still having battery issues, we'd recommend that you reach out to our support team so we can help identify the cause of the battery drain. Please contact us on our Google Help page here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Good Affordable Camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good product overall. Easy install and use. Good price point. Respectable battery life and great motion detection. Included theft prevention wire seems flimsy, recommend purchasing after-market wire if you're concerned about theft of the device. Would recommend to anyone looking to start their home security array.

Notifications are not very good
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I switched from an older Arlo camera to this new Next Cam Battery and it really wasn't an upgrade. The nest cam itself is pretty huge, far bigger the my arlo, so you would think the battery life would be better. But it isn't. So far it is dropping about 1% a day, which while that sounds ok, the Arlo is so much better. Then there are the notifications or lack of notifications I should say. With the Arlo I never missed anything it isn't field of view, the nest seems far, far less sensative and no amount of changing the settings has improved this. The real kicker seeing how this is a google product is that is doesnt' stream to other google products. The Arlo would show on my google TV when I asked google to show it, but this Google Nest camera can't do that. Overall this was not an upgrade from a 4-year-old Arlo camera. Arlo had better notifications, better battery and better integration with other google products.

Great camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Solid camera with great picture quality. Integrates very well with Google Home. The only thing that keeps me from giving it 5 stars is the charging can be a pain sometimes. The charging pins have to be cleaned from time to time before charging or it won't begin to charge.

Nice Camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far I'm happy .... replaced another brand cameras with this because I initially wanted to go with something wired. After looking at many, decided to try the Nest Battery Camera. Haven't had it long enough to comment on battery life. It is easy (and fast) to charge, and has great video quality. Especially easy to monitor from the Google Home app which I was already using for my Nest Thermostat.

Overall nice Google backed product, read more
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall a well integrated Google product, seemless connectivity with Google home, which works on Apple and Android. After 11 months of usage, no issues with connectivity, was able access the camera remotely, even from otherside of planet , thanks to powerof Internet. Got two cameras, one is flickering in the night, looks like IR (infra red) module could be broken. Functinality in Day is good. Is battery powered, however needs charging, but also can take external power. So if you are planning for leaving long term 2 weeks or more, recommend buying external cable, costs extra. Also has magnetic bases, gives flexibility with installing on doors without additional tools. Pricing is on the higher side. I am hoping Google will replace my faulty camera whichisstillinwarranty, that is one of the reasons I bought this camera, my experience with Google with another claim was good. If you have a slightly higher budget and want Google backed product, i would go with this. Also for camera recordings, default free event history you only see last 3 hours of information, the monthly plan costs extra.

Google Home App Terrible
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wish I could return but took too much time to get it setup after purchasing. Buyer beware - not compatable with the Nest App. I shoulda done my research before just assuming that this would connect with my other Nest cameras but I didnt. Google Home app is terrible for video monitoring! Not only can I not see this camera where my other camera feeds are, it only shows event activity when reviewing video, doesnt alert you to a low battery, doesn't wake up fast enough to record an event which knocked the camera down even though an animal walked in front of it several hours later, and doesnt allow zoning. What a waste of money.

Google Nest Camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ended up getting the front porch ones wired and that was an extra cost to pay an electrician bc I live in an older house. Nice looking, But the battery life is not good.I think I’m going to sell and get a different camera system. I don’t like the fact that they are battery operated and The solar panels don’t really keep them charged in high traffic areas.

Posted .Hi there, MashaundaC. Sorry to hear you haven’t the best battery life on the Nest Cam (Battery). The lifespan of the battery will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and selected camera settings. On average here’s how long the battery will last on a single charge:
Busy - About 1 month battery life (about 25 - 30 recorded events per day)
Typical - About 2.5 months battery life (about 13 - 16 recorded events per day)
Quiet - About 6 months battery life (about 2 - 5 recorded events per day)
Here’s a few tips to conserve battery:
1. Optimize its video quality.
2. Shorten the length of time for which events are recorded.
3. Take longer to begin recording between events.

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.

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).

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.
