    Video quality on this camera is far superior to what I'd had through a different security system. We didn't find it easy to save video to our computer, ended up caving and spending the $5/mo retention. Kind of wasteful IMO, should be easier to store locally.

    Very similar to Nest Outdoor cam but without temp and mounting features. Needs an adjustable mounting head and ability to mount from ceiling. Making it fit to my application wasn't hard, just a little imagination. Price point is a little high for it's features

    I have two Nest thermostats and setting this camera up was simply and easy. The picture quality is good. I'm unsure of the talk feature as I think my internet service can be spotty at times. Overall with the price when on sale.

    To get it to work the way it's supposed to, you will need to subscribe and pay monthly fee.

    This is my second nest cam. I owned a dropcam before nest bought the company, and this camera works even better with the updated app. I don't like paying monthly for nest aware, but it is worth the money for peace of mind.

    We use it to keep an eye on the place when we are away for long periods of time and to keep an eye on our dog when we are at work all day. It's easy to set up and install and works great.

    Bought 6 of these cameras in addition to the 2 I already had. Very easy to setup and provide great features and integration with the nest thermostat and smoke detectors I also have all over the home. Would highly recommend

    Cam quality is pretty good. Promotes as full HD, but I think it is a little less, but close. Web access is great format and easy to use. Do note, that this is off their cloud and not to your server, so be prepared to have a monthly or yearly subscription. Good for simply home owner.

    I wanted to have surveillance for the inside of my house to see my dog if she’s destroying anything. The quality is great and works seamlessly with the app connecting my Nest Hello

    Fairly decent

    Honestly, it is a decent camera; however, it is not as clear as one might think. Well lit areas tend to be nice. 1080P quality, but diminishes when you zoom in. It is pretty decent. One can tell the camera is active at night rather easily because the infrared lights are quite brighter. I ended up upgrading to the Nest IQ camera because it has 12X zoom; however, quality still diminishes when you zoom in too much. The infrared lights on it are much dimmer at night. Also the IQ allows you to do more such as face recognition, object tracking, and has Home Assistant built in if you want to use it for that as well. Overall this camera is decent, but if you want high quality upgrade to the IQ camera. I bought the IQs from Ebay for much cheaper than the $299 price tag.

    Got this so we can look into the house when we're at work. It was really easy to set up and adjust. Many different notification settings and like how can get notices when someone enters the room on my Apple Watch!!

    I mounted this camera in a window facing outward as a security camera of sorts. After setting activity zones, I’m able to easily check on the app when there is activity near the house. Great picture quality.

    In my opinion, it has the best picture quality. The two way voice system is good too. The only thing I would have liked on this is a micro SD slot to store video instead of being forced to buy the online cloud service.

    We have this in our baby's room, and it's so nice to be able to look in in him whether we have a sitter, or we're outside and not have to worry about being out of range with a regular monitor!
