Easy to use and give a great sense of security
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to keep an eye on my dog in the back yard, picture is amazingly clear and boots right up the minute I hit the on button, Stands up to all the cold and snow and no issues. The wide angle lens covers just about my whole yard. What I like about it best is the camera is not fixed, and can be turned and twisted into just any position you might need. Too many other cameras are in a fixed position and cannot be adjusted,

Solid wireless outdoor camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the second Google Nest outdoor wireless camera we set up along with a Nest doorbell. Cameras can be customized to alert you and the Google subscription service allows you see 30 days of video history. Cameras have high resolution, wide angle viewing and the night vision is great.

Great product for Google Home
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second camera that was recently added to my collection and its been great to us. I have it linked with Google Home and utilized the outdoor weather cable. I did notice an extra item the previous model did not have. The cable lock was a great addition and will be used well. Setup and placement of this product was very easy with minimal issues connecting to my network. I currently use Nest aware and like the options offered to me. I do wish we have an upgrade to 4k in the near future.

Fantastic video quality!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This cameras have some of the best video footage I've ever seen. We have a very active household and the cameras are set up for motion detection. Even still, the battery lasts around 15 to 20 days even though they are constantly turning on with all the commotion in our home. They take about 5 hours to charge so it's pretty easy to charge both cameras. The magnet on these cameras is extremely strong. They aren't going to move, slip, slide, or anything. These cameras are top quality.

Ok but…
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good but in some ways they’re a downgrade. The biggest downside is you can’t use the Nest app and you have to use Google Home app which is not as good IMO. If this is your first Nest camera you’ll be fine. If you’re coming from or adding to older Nest IQ cameras you might be disappointed

All around Great camera .
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera has worked out just like it should, it has great picture, easy to install and it’s wireless. Will definitely be buying another.
I would recommend this to a friend Good additional camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have nest gen 1 cameras and iq at the perimeter of my home. Those require power all of the time. We purchased these cameras for areas we don't see a lot of traffic/alerts. The camera does a decent job, not as good as the gen 1 or iq cameras. The picture is decent and so far battery life is as listed in the cameras description. I do not like the fact I cannot use the nest app to view these cameras like the rest of my cameras. You must use the Google home app. I'm hoping over time, google will push software upgrades to allow these cameras to reach their full potential.

Nest Google camera

Good
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The battery life is not very long. The only thing I wish is that it had a better battery life. Easy setup. Looks great indoors and out. I like that it’s wireless. Wish you can you the nest app rather than the google home app.

Posted .Hi there Coolmom, thanks for choosing our Google Nest products. We're glad to hear that Nest Cam (Battery) has been great for you. We're sorry to hear that the battery and the exclusivity of the Google Home app for the new generation of Nest cameras fell short of meeting your expectations.
We wanted to make the Google Home app as the one place where you can control all your favorite Nest devices and other smart home devices with the Google Assistant. Here are some benefits you can get by using the Google Home app with your Nest Cam (Battery):
- Automatic security protections such as Suspicious activity detection, 2-Step Verification and Security Checkup.
- Your Google Nest devices and services will work together. For example, if you have a Nest Cam and a Nest Hub, just say, """"Hey Google, show me the backyard camera” to cast your camera stream to your display without any additional setup.
- 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.
- If you're willing, you may set up your Nest cameras to the Google Home app. Check out this help article: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9893532
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 highly 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.

Good security cam
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great quality built. Love the night vision, very clear and I love that it can distinguish a person from an animal. Would definitely recommend. The only down side is that it doesn’t come with a way to secure it so it won’t get stolen. This is why I can’t give it a 5 star.
