    Works pretty well and seems to have a good image, despite not being 4k. It may also look like it's made of plastic in the image, but the gunmetal grey portions are very solid/metal. There is a nice heft to it. This model is running on a few years old at this point and still uses micro-USB for it cable connection (which is a bit tight at the back)- All told, not an issue, though I imagine these will see an update soon enough

    I "upgraded" one of my Dropcam Pros to the Nest Cam expecting improvements. The 1080p increase in resolution is not very noticeable from the Dropcam due to very aggressive compression. The Nest mobile app is also significantly worst than the Dropcam app in performance and functionality. Auto notification on/off doesn't exist in the new app and the app is very sluggish. iPad version of the app also lacks significant functionality from the Dropcam version. You can't review video from a specific time unless it has triggered motion detection. The camera goes offline more frequently than the Dropcam. I'm quite disappointed in the performance of this camera compared to the Dropcam considering it's essentially the same camera.

    I have these all over my house. They are perfect to use as a nannycam, baby monitor, or just generally as an indoor camera. I have at least six and have been very satisfied. I also like how they are compatible with other google products. And because they use Wi-Fi, I can check in on our home from anywhere; at work or on vacation!

    I purchased two Nest cameras at Best Buy because I was tired of people stealing my packages and neighbors who refused to pick up after their dogs did their business on my lawn. I was able to capture the video footage I needed after one day of having my cameras up and running. These cameras are great and are easy to install. You must have enough speed on your Internet service, otherwise, your web browsing will get slow.

    I bought this 3 pack to add to a single camera we purchased a few years ago. They work great and are easy to set up. On the downside, they only come in black (really stands out on a white wall. Also because they are now a Google partner/acquisition, transitioning my Nest account on the first camera to the new Google account took a few calls to customer support.

    We set up three of these cameras, had all three set up in less than 15 minutes. They work great detecting movement and sound and sending out notifications to both my wife's and my cell phones. We have one of the cameras in my Mother in Laws room who we provide care for. This allows us to be able to go into other parts of the house or outside and still be able to make sure she is OK. The other two are set up for security.

    Easy to setup, doesn't require a robust wireless network to use (<5 Mbps) but a strong network greatly reduces hiccups and errors (>24 Mbps). We use to supplement our baby monitor.
