Google Nest cam
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these cameras. Super easy to set up, App is easy to use as well.

Good cameras
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Solid camera addition
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We already had a NestCam system, but we had some blind spots around the perimeter. As these are newer than the originals, they don't show up in the Nest App, but everything shows up in the Google Home app. The battery life is decent, with active cameras lasting 2 weeks, less active units lasting less.

Overall is good
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not bad. Battery is not the best, but it’s not too bad as long as you set up the camera correctly that it doesn’t drain the battery too much. Recording is good.

So much better than Arlo
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After suffering through various horrible quality Arlo cams, this is a nice change. The picture quality is fantastic and the image loads quickly. I wish I had gone with google from the start.

Batters last longer then I though they would.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.That battery seems to last a long time, and it was easy to setup. I just wish there was a setting to shut off the IR lights as they cause a glare on a window.

Posted .Hi Tckid, thanks for posting your review on Nest Cam (battery). We can see that you're experiencing some difficulties with the IR lights of your device. We'd suggest adjusting its position to avoid any glare. However, if you want to turn it off you can follow the steps here:
- On the home screen, select the camera you want.
- Tap Video.
- Under Night Vision, select from Always on, Auto, or Off.
Please be advised that if you switch Night Vision to 'Off' your camera will not automatically turn on night vision when it gets dark. For further assistance or additional questions about your Nest Cam, please contact us on our Google Help page here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Not exactly what I thought
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Camera is good. Very flexible in placement, and batter life lasts a long time. My biggest disappointment with this product is I have used Nest products for many years, and this does not work on the nest app. Only the terrible google app. Very disappointing!! Only would recommend if you never had any Nest products before. If you have, I don’t consider this a nest product, as Google has sunk in their claws into the product line and killed a good thing.

Posted .Hi there Mbrule328, thanks for sharing your experience with us on Nest Cam (Battery). We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with the Google Home app.
The new Nest Cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Google Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience with other Google Nest speakers and displays. We wanted to make the Google Home app as the one place you can control all your favorite Nest and other smart home devices with the Google Assistant. If you already have some Nest cameras installed in your home, you may transfer them to the Google Home app. Here´s a guide that you can follow: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9893532

Excellent camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Outstanding cameras for security
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The video quality is outstanding in all levels of light.

Don't buy this unless you like the Google Home app
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.While I like the camera itself, this generation does not seem markedly different than the 1st generation. The most irritating thing is that this camera can only be accessed with the Google Home app, which was NOT mentioned when I was buying this, and which is NOT as good an app as the Nest app that previously could be used. Google should not be able to call it a "Nest" product when it can't be used with that app. I would rather have the older camera due to that.

Posted .Hi HeathH, thanks for sharing your feedback with us about the Nest Cam (battery), and we’re sorry to hear your expectations are not met.
We understand that longtime Nest users enjoy viewing their Nest camera feeds from the Nest app. However, our priority with this launch was building 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. And while the new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Google Home app, users with previous versions of Nest cameras can view their camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams.
We’ll share your feedback with the right team for future improvements, including our product information. If you need guidance using the camera features in the Home app, please feel free to contact us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
