Customer Ratings & Reviews

These cameras were easy to install and easy to set up with our Google Hub. These are not hardwired so we separately purchased solar panels specifically for these cameras and they are great. The picture is clear and the microphone/speakers are sharp.

I got these for my niece and I don't believe she has had any issues

I've bought one just like this one and the battery last awhile. But this one's battery is going dead in least than 2 months and needs to be recharged more often. The camera is good quality but the battery is poor on this one

I purchased this today. I was really attracted to the battery option as getting wires to an outdoor camera would be a challenge. I already have a Nest doorbell and two Nest thermostats, so going with this seemed like a no-brainer. Not so fast. It’s starting to be very clear that there were once Google Home products and, from a separate company, Nest products. Google Home bought Nest and the result is messy. It feels like the Google Home team won the internal battles. While the Nest name lives on, the Google Home team don’t much care about the Nest legacy and there is a jarring disconnect between the two product lines. So let’s just say that Nest (1st Gen) is an orphan now and Google Nest is simply a rebrand of Google Home. That seems to be the easiest explanation. Oh, and the battery was at 89% when I setup the camera. It’s now 6 hours later and I’m down to 62%. I live on a quiet cul-de-sac and there has only been one recorded event all evening — actually, I couldn’t see anything in a video it recorded, so even that was a false positive. I’m worried the battery is going to be for naught. On the positive, it was an easy install

Great camera's only the Battery would last longer.

We have four of these outside the house set to record motion at night or when we leave the house. Great for peace of mind, fun to get animal activity and convenient to make sure the horses are still standing when we’re away. The app is pretty easy to use and simple install as well. Batteries last for months at a time - although if you live in a northern climate like us, they may turn off to conserve battery on cold nights. Unless you subscribe to a service from Google, it only saves recordings for a few hours. If you hope to watch any recorded animal activity when you wake up in the morning or have any security evidence if something happens, be prepared to spend a few extra bucks per month. Could have given you 8 hrs for free - 3 hrs feels like they’re heavily steering you to the subscription.

The camera is crispy clear the only thing is it’s a mess to have to keep charging it so have it wired for non stop usage.

This camera works well, has a stong enough battery, and a fairly strong magnet so it can be placed just about anywhere. The only problem i see is that it needs a subscription to get the best use out of it.

I use these camera's inside and they work great. I have others outside and they work well, also. The cord is a bit of an eyesore, but I want to make sure they are always working. They caught our neighbor's construction worker backing into our mailbox. They couldn't deny it because we had evidence. Very easy to set up and I can watch from my iPhone.

Battery was quickly drug down. We hardwired through the attic with provided cords and are much more pleased with usage. Clear picture.

Best outdoor camer for the price great quality video and images

I used to like my google nest camera's but they've gone downhill. Connections to my wifi had been super buggy and cant always connect to see the videos until way later. I get a notification saying person seen but i cant review it. The cost per year for the cloud recordings have doubled since ive joined and the quality of service and performance has gotten worst. The battery life seems to be worst than the older generations. I got this system because im renting a house and dont want to screw anything in and they have magnetic mounting as an option. I'll be switching to a better system when that changes.

Easy setup, steady connection. Quality of image ok.

Great cameras and easy to set up and install. Good but not great battery life.

Great product. Very easy to install and setup! Clear quality. Everything is as expected

Cameras have great video quality and easy to install/setup with your Google account. Access via phone anywhere anytime. You can extend the record hours with a subscription but you can do without it too. Charge last pretty long depending on weather conditions. Great purchase, might get one more!

Great camera but buyer beware. If you already have 1st generation (regular camera), 2nd generation (IQ), or the doorbell, this 3rd generation camera will not work with NEST app. You have to download and use Google Home app in order to use new cameras. I can see all 3 plus doorbell cameras on Google Home, but if I wanted to scroll through time on an older camera, I have to switch back to the NEST app. Don't get me wrong, quality of newer cameras are better than older models. Just be aware.

Excellent picture quality. It’s worth buying. Easy installation

Have had these cameras for two weeks and very pleased up until now. Easy to mount/install, simple to use, good functionality (in terms of picture quality, ability to zoom, battery-sparing operating modes as default, magnetic mount component, speaker functionality, etc.). Clearly not a serious home security device, but a good first step in establishing basic external surveillance

Some of the better cameras on the market, easy setup, only downside to me is the google home app
