Works excellently, easy to setup, I was able to pick it up same day.
Hi SengodanM, thanks for letting us know about the issue. We're sorry for any inconvenience you may be having with having to recharge your Nest Cam (Battery) every 6 days.
Battery life will depend on factors including activity, temperature, and camera settings that you select. Users can extend the battery life of their 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 for your Nest Cam (Battery): 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 checking the frequency of events (per day) that you get with your Nest Cam (Battery). If the short battery life isn´t related to the frequency of events, then we may need to have a closer look at your device and understand what may be causing it. Please feel free to reach out to our support team for further assistance by visiting us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Good quality but better when plugged in. Weird that it doesn’t automatically turn on when not plugged but takes some getting used to since all my other cameras are plugged in. Google set up is different from Nest but again something to get used to. Overall, pretty good camera but I think the quality went down from the previous versions.

Great product - easy install and set up. Can now see front yard and driveway movement. Battery life seems ok.

Very easy to install, and the cameras have good sharpness.

It's a solid performer with impressive battery life but the Google software behind it (Google Home) has a ways to go. It only wakes up when it sees movement close to it or when requested by the app. My camera pointed at the forest seldom turns on because everything that might move is 100+ feet away.

I have three of these installed at my house, and three installed at my parents' house. They work flawlessly for my needs, and the battery life is incredible. The feed quality is high and the AI works extremely well at detecting people. Mounting is a breeze, and the Google Home app has gotten much better.
