||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best Buy local expert provided a great overview of the product.

Not satisficed with my security camera purchase
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was sold something different then what I asked for. I was told I was buying Security Camera that would be hard wired not requiring recharging a battery. What was installed were battery operated cameras requiring recharging. They are ok but the battery charging looks like it will occur about every 4 weeks.

Posted .Hi there, thanks for sharing your experience about Nest Cam (Battery). We’re sorry to hear that you got an incorrect device.
For the battery life, it will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select. You can extend the battery life of your camera by adjusting video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and using activity zones to monitor specific areas. Here are some typical scenarios:
- Busy - About 1.5 months battery life (about 20 - 25 recorded events per day).
- Typical - About 3 months battery life (about 9 - 12 recorded events per day).
- Quiet - About 7 months battery life (about 2 - 4 recorded events per day).
We recommend contacting BestBuy about their return/exchange policy. You may also contact our support team for further assistance with your concern, by simply reaching out to us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
