Reliable and Easy to Set Up
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I know the reviews have been a bit mixed on this camera, but I have found it to be nothing but easy and reliable. It works as designed and I didn't have to rewire my home to set it up! For me, this is a big win!
I would recommend this to a friendSimple and just works
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish the battery lasted a little longer. Overall a good product, the subscription is worth it. If you get a comparable system from Ubiquiti it would cost 4 times as much.

Won't tilt down
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's like this huge and heavy battery cam is only made to tilt up. Can't get it to tilt down, making it hard to capture everything. If put down, it's even worse. I've done everything I can think of, moved it around, backward, forward, nothing works. And because of the magnet, there are limitations. I have two of the wired cams with no issues. Even the battery op doorbell has no issues. But this is a headache for lack of better word.

Excellent home camera
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great cam with a simple look that blends in to the home. Wide view and motion detection works great even though I installed it at about 10ft high.

Used when some movers came to pack my house. Thanks to this camera they were caucht taking things before they realized it was there. Blends in well.
I would recommend this to a friendNot bad IQ was better
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have installed tons of Nest/Google products for clients and myself as well but this new line up is pretty disappointing the is no option for an mounted on post product, the battery life is not great, no 4k recording, and the way it deals with network upgrades is really obnoxious half the time you have to remove the camerafrom the app and factory reset the device just to get it on the new Wi-Fi. Now that being said the price is ok, the fact that it actually does run on a rechargeable battery for certain circumstances is nice, and does not require the nest app is a plus.

As long as you have good wifi they do really well . Battery last about a month with high sensitivity frequent traffic . Mid sensitivity with low traffic you can get 2 months off a charge .
I would recommend this to a friendNice Camera but Google not so nice
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice camera, however, Google makes you use their APP for it instead of the Nest APP. So now I have most of my cameras in the Nest APP and this one in the Google APP. Poor management on Googles part....

Posted .Hi ChrisM, thanks for letting us know about the issue you're having with Nest Cam (Battery) and the Google Home app. We're sorry for any inconvenience this experience may be causing you.
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 (Indoor, Wired):
- 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 to try, you may set up your Nest cameras to the Google Home app. Check out this help article: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9893532
We’d like to learn more about your experience, and see how we can improve it. Please do not hesitate to contact our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

love the mount
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the magnetic mount. it made the install very easy
I would recommend this to a friendNice upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After being unhappy with a Swann NVR based system and an Arlo system I changed both of those out to Nest. The Nest system seems to run a little slower than Arlo did, but overall for the price, build quality, ease of setup, and ongoing subscription prices this was a great upgrade. Major gripe about the 2-pack was it didn't come with 2 chargers and cables, just one set, so I got shorted and should have gotten the single pack cameras. Also, I bought some wasserstein security mounts and then found out that the nest cams came with a security cable already.

Posted .Hi finjam, we appreciate your feedback on Nest Cam (battery), and we’re glad that you find it a great upgrade. We hear your concerns, and we’d be happy to share this with the right team to work on improving our products and the services we offer, including product information.
Meanwhile, we suggest having the latest version of the Google Home app that may improve camera playback controls to make it easier to play, pause, and navigate between events from the camera history view for cameras set up in the Google Home app. We also understand that having two charging cables for your cameras can be convenient for you. If you want to consider connecting your cameras to a power outlet for continuous power but you only have one charging cable and adapter, we suggest reaching out to our support team anytime so we can figure out a way to help you best, here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Posted .Hello there, Travis. Thanks for posting a review about the Nest Cam (battery). We’re aware that longtime Nest users enjoy viewing their Nest camera feeds from the Nest app. However, our priority is to build a complete experience for our new cameras and doorbell in the Google Home app. We’re working on bringing full functionality to the Home app as we want to create an integrated experience with other Nest and smart home devices.
We’ve taken note of your feedback for future improvements. If you need help with using the camera effectively in the Home app, you can contact our dedicated team anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
