    Bought my fair share or outdoor cameras. The nest camera doesn’t miss anything. Great video quality. Plan on buying another!

    Easy set up. Great cameras. You will have to purchase the google nest plan to keep videos for 6 months instead of them deleting after 24 hours. But even without it you should be able to download needed videos. Overall they are a good purchase.

    The video quality is outstanding in all levels of light. Really love the ability to create an activity zone to greatly minimize false positive alerts and truly focus on the areas we're most wanting to monitor.

    works great and the picture is excellent and didn't hurt that it was on sale... unlike most of the other cameras I have tried there is very little lag... the only issue I had setting it up was that I couldn't get the camera to turn on... tried to troubleshoot the problem online with no help... by accident I found out that the camera has to be connected to the magnetic mount to work...

      Hey there, EricS! Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Nest Cam (battery), and we’re glad that you like its video quality. We’re sorry to hear you had trouble with the setup, but it’s a good thing you found out how to make it work. We’ll share this with the right team for future improvements.

      Meanwhile, in the event you need to install another Nest Cam (battery), your camera needs to be awake to connect to Wi-Fi and complete setup in the app. Typically, if your camera’s status light turns off during setup, your camera is no longer awake and you won’t be able to add it to the app. To troubleshoot, Close the app, and follow instructions to factory reset your camera here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9252162

      We trust that you're getting the most out of the camera’s rich features. If help is needed, feel free to let us know here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Super impressed with the quality of these cameras. I’ve built a great Google Nest and home system. So easy to install. I saw other camera security systems that would have been a nightmare to install with wires and cords all over the place. Google Nest was a great buy, especially since they were on sale.

    Bought this pair of Google Nest cameras for my front and back yard, pretty good video quality but sometimes it's recognizes wrong person. I hope Google to improve Face detection feature.

    I don’t understand all the poor reviews. I just moved into my new house and went from Ring to Nest. I bought these battery cameras because where i wanted my cameras there was no power source anywhere near it. They work great and ive had no issues at all. The battery life is not an issue unless your trying to record 24/7. If you do motion only and create a zone and pick people and vehicles it will last for a month or 2 before needing a charge.

    Setting up the camera was a breeze with the Home app. Installation was was easy, but i ordered the power cable since i dont want any downtime charging the camera. The video and audio is very good, with facial recognition being a nice bunny's when you opt to pay for a subscription. The only con is having to buy the power cable separate and this will be the only way to have always on 24/7 monitoring.

    I felt bad about my neighbors vehicles. They were set ablaze by some local hoodlums. I wanted to make sure my cars had some protection. So I immediately went to best buy and bought this system. Now its both a great deterrent and protector for my vehicles. Great quality video and has two way talk feature.

    Excellent camera. I’m using it with the Starling hub to integrate with Apple HomeKit. I don’t take off the plug so I have constant power. Will get Nest aware subscription to have 24/7 monitoring. Got it at a discount. Would recommend.
