These Cameras work Great. Battery life is Great also. Nice to go back and watch from What times you can.
Hey there, EnmanuelH. We’re glad that you like the Nest Cam (battery). We hear your concern about having a longer cable included with every purchase. We’d be happy to share this with the right team for future improvements. Meanwhile, you might want to check for the weatherproof cables (5 m or 10 m) so you can avoid charging the battery more often by connecting your camera to a power outlet. Although the included power adapter can also keep the battery charged, we suggest using the weatherproof cable since the included power adapter is not intended for outdoor use. You may contact your retailer for product availability.

Great product, easy to set up, facial recognition works perfect, love that it notices packages and let you know that they are there and when they are gone, we definitely recommend all especially over ring products

This camera is amazing. Excellent video resolution , nice design, battery last longer than other ones, but what I really liked was the audio communication, that's allows you to speak through the camera.
Hi SengodanM, thanks for letting us know about the issue. We're sorry for any inconvenience you may be having with having to recharge your Nest Cam (Battery) every 6 days.
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. Please feel free to reach out to our support team for further assistance by visiting us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

I bought this Nest Cam indoor/outdoor security camera to replace my Nest IQ and this camera has a better resolution so I'm impressed with the capabilities of this camera and you can buy a a/c cord and have no worries about recharging the battery.

Don’t get this product because it needs to be charged often so if it’s high you will need a ladder to get it off charge it then put it back. Additionally this product only comes with one charger for 3 cameras. Terrible product
Hey there, Lyradi. We’re sorry to hear you’re having to charge the Nest Cam (Battery) so often. The battery life on the Nest doorbell (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.

Total failure! I have been a nest customer since day one. I will tell why this product is a failure.
1. It will not integrate with Next app. Meaning if you have an old Nest IQ cam and you normally use the Nest app for just about anything from camera to thermostat then this camera is not for you. It will not let you add this to the nest app. You will have to use the google home app and view the camera from there. What a waste.
2. Only 1 wire for 2 camera kit. Stupid!!!!
3. Charging wire faces frontward and not backward. Another Failure
4. Keeps on staying idle mode .
5. Won't integrate to the nest aware option - another failure
6. Erratic wifi Connection even if my router is just 10 ft away.
In a nutshell, just wait for the next camera or just look on ebay for the old Nestcam IQ ones both indoors and outdoors.
Hi Ryan, thanks for the feedback and for being a long time Nest user. It’s unfortunate to learn about the issues you have with your Nest Cam (Battery).
The new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience. 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.
The new Nest cameras support Nest aware subscription and you’ll get 30 days of event video history. With Nest Aware Plus, you’ll get 60 days and 10 days of 24/7 video history if you choose to connect your Nest Cam (battery) to a power cable (sold separately). You may see this link to know what you’ll get with a Nest Aware: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9233159
Also, Nest camera issues can be related to several factors. If you're experiencing a spotty connection or weak signal, we recommend checking your Wi-Fi network to see if your bandwidth is congested. This may happen if you have too many devices connected on the same bandwidth or if your network package is not enough to handle the data traffic on the network. Removing other connected devices to your Wi-Fi may relieve network congestion.
We’d be able to identify the underlying issues better if we can get more details, we suggest getting in touch with our specialists here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

I have three of these installed at my house, and three installed at my parents' house. They work flawlessly for my needs, and the battery life is incredible. The feed quality is high and the AI works extremely well at detecting people. Mounting is a breeze, and the Google Home app has gotten much better.
