    Does exactly what i thought it would do! Not to keen on the Magnetic hold, but it does make it easier to direct the view.

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

    At first I was skeptical, but it seems to have learned and picked up events as expected. I wasn’t sure about moving to the Google Home app but it’s been great so far. Battery life is fantastic

    Battery life is poor. Notifications are spotty, and a real pain to set up again if you change your WiFi network.

    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.

    Very disappointed with the performance of this camera!!! Set up event zones multiple times per instructions and they would never work correctly. Camera would detect car or person going away from camera but never coming towards camera. Camera now has went offline and will not reconnect with wi fi and seems unresponsive even with full charge. Camera is only a month old

    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!

    Charged the battery Friday. It's dead by Monday morning. Takes over 4 hours to charge. Very far from estimated battery life. Quite annoying.

    Held back by the Google Home app

    I've found the notifications to be much more accurate and much quicker than my previous Nest Cam Outdoors. That's where the good ends. The Google Home app holds these cameras back and can't even compare to the Nest app. The app was nowhere ready for this launch and Google made a huge mistake forcing the use of the Home app. On another note, if you wire one of these up for 24/7 video and you're expecting continuous scrubbing like in the Nest app, you'll be very disappointed.

      Hi Brett, thanks for your feedback. We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with the Google Home app and the continuous video recording for your Nest Cam (Battery).

      We wanted to make the Google Home app 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.

      We'd like to hear more about your experience, including your concerns with the 24/7 video recording option when you hardwire your Nest Cam (Battery). You can check with our support team and we'll gladly help you out, if you can reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
