Nice upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After being unhappy with a Swann NVR based system and an Arlo system I changed both of those out to Nest. The Nest system seems to run a little slower than Arlo did, but overall for the price, build quality, ease of setup, and ongoing subscription prices this was a great upgrade. Major gripe about the 2-pack was it didn't come with 2 chargers and cables, just one set, so I got shorted and should have gotten the single pack cameras. Also, I bought some wasserstein security mounts and then found out that the nest cams came with a security cable already.

Meanwhile, we suggest having the latest version of the Google Home app that may improve camera playback controls to make it easier to play, pause, and navigate between events from the camera history view for cameras set up in the Google Home app. We also understand that having two charging cables for your cameras can be convenient for you.

||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good camera. Battery lasts several weeks sometimes months depending on the activity. Only reason for 4 stars is I believe the video quality could be a little better. Grainey picture when zooming in at all. Nest aware is pretty good and easy to use.

Buy an electrical cord
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Working so far, can’t believe they have gone to where you have to buy an electrical cord separate to keep it plugged in for continual live footage that cost an extra $35/40.

Two thumbs up
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These cameras are awesome. However if you put them in a high traffic area the battery life decreases substantially.
