    I already owned a Nest Cam for the nursery. I bought another one for the kids bedroom. I recently bought the Nest doorbell and I am planning to add the thermostat to my Nest family. Love the product!

    I purchased this camera to replace my Samsung baby monitor. I was tired of being stuck to the little low resolution screen. I can access it from any of my network connected devices. I will be purchasing another.

    Nice fast simple set up. Camera works great as long as your Wi-Fi is working well. We just had some Wi-Fi issues to fix, but once we fixed that problem, we never had a issue with the camera performance. Camera performs just as expected.

    I love all neat products. These cameras fit right in with the rest of their line up. The only trouble I have noticed is sometimes after watching for 3 min, it will buffer for 15 seconds or so before playing again. I have gig internet as well.... so not sure what the story is here.

    Love the cameras, love the app, the auto switch to "night vision" is very nice. Setup is cake! The paid service to house recording is a little expensive with Nest.

    Good resolution. Works great as long as you have a good internet connection. Monthly subscription isn't bad for what you get. I like that it automatically uploads to a cloud so there is no need to worry about memory on a card.

    We returned the Arlo and bought this system and have been very happy with it. We had some issues with our home network and how much the cameras were using but have worked around that. We are happy with this system and the cameras.

    From the mounting plate screws to the camera itself, everything feels very high quality. The nest app makes it very easy to see events and seamlessly scroll through the timeline. The monthly service is a bit expensive which is the only reason I've deducted a star.

    3 pack is the only way to go. This allows me to cover a lot of the house. I have 4 of these total and looking at getting some of the outdoor ones which are a bit more expensive.

    We like having this camera, however the motion sensor goes off every time a car goes by at night and the lights shine into the house. We called Nest and were told we could turn off the motion sensor, but we do want the camera to capture true motion.

    I have the previous version as well. I was pleased with how much better built this camera is. It is very heavy and solid. Camera footage I thought would be higher quality but it does the trick. Nest programs are really great though.

    Love the NEST system. Ironically I was checking the cameras before I got the request to write this review! Very minimal issues, including when not in wifi range. Resolution is perfect for our purposes...next level nanny cam!

    It has been almost 18 months since we purchased this. Use it regularly to monitor kids activities. Can be used as 1 way voice communication device.

    Been using it for years now, still going strong. Love the Nest build quality. Not crazy about the Google acquisition, but whatever...I am good with it. We have Nest throughout.

    I like the nest products with the exception of having to purchase the subscription. The camera supports many angles, has good resolution, and is becoming a little more affordable...that subscription though

    I used to love Nest. Back when it was a start-up and was actually useful, there was no better camera for quality or usefulness. Once Google took over, it quickly became the worst and most useless camera I own. First, reliability is hit or miss. My original Nest cam still works over a half decade later. My most recently purchased Nest cam began malfunctioning within the first year. Second, the old Nest would at least show you video clips from the same day without requiring a plan. Now, unless you have a subscription or continuously monitor the live feed, you’ll never see video from events, just useless snapshots. And it only covers the preceding few hours. Alerts are also hit or miss on whether Or not they’ll be sent. I liked the old Nest but the new Nest is terrible. I’d suggest anything over Nest cam at this point. Way overpriced, suspect quality and practically useless without a subscription.

    Very nice looking camera and awesome that it has voice. This product did not work with my Apple computer. This really puzzled me but I spent almost 3 hours on the phone with 2 different techs and could not get it to work. I really wanted to like it but moved on to the Arlo system and all is good!
