    Love this camera. Great quality and super easy setup. Only downside is the high cost of the recording plans.

    Started out by buying the Arlo system. I did like the size of the cameras- but I didn't want to change batteries every month. So, I took that system back and got this camera first- I Love it- up and running in about 5 minutes. I purchased this inside camera to watch my dogs. Crazy right? 2 days later I went and got one for my back porch (outside) camera. It is so easy.

    We bought two cameras for security and to see what our dog does all day. We really like the cameras but aren't sure what we are going to lose when the 30 day trial is up. We're hoping to not have to pay for a monthly service. Also, be sure to turn the Bluetooth off on your phone before trying to set it up. It would have saved a lot of time on setup had we known this. Technical support got it figured out but it took longer to setup because of this issue.

    These cameras and great and easy to use. Easy to set up and add to your phone via Nest app. I am only rating it 4 starts instead of 5 because of the Nest Subscription. Nest charges up to $300 a year for a single camera which is outrageous. Ring charges a flat rate for unlimited. Nest look into doing that because I will be switching to ring shortly due to the substantial subscription savings. Other than that the cameras are wonderful.

    I already had a doorbell from Nest and wanted to add an indoor camera. I was up and running in mayne 20 min. Installation was simple and adding to my existing account was easier than I thought. I especially like that I can adjust notifications, for home or when you're away. Very happy.

    Another easy to add Nest product to your system. We set it on a fireplace pointed at our from door in conjunction with our Nest doorbell. We have been in the process of having our home remodeled and makes it easy to keep track of whos walking into our home and on which day.

    I really like these Nest Indoor Cams. I have 3 of them. I've used them as baby monitors, pet monitors, and for security. When you have the video set to the highest quality then the camera does get warm. Also, you don't get the full functionality unless you pay the monthly subscription. They can do 720 or 1080p video resolution and they zoom decently but not awesome. I love the wide angle lens though. I have one in a corner of the room as a security cam and I can see all 4 different doors into that room and the stairs. I only need one camera to see the whole room. I feel like they could keep optimizing the Nest App. It has gotten faster over time but it still feels like it loads slow when there is an "emergency" and I want to see the camera feed immediately. I like the "2-way" talk, but be aware that this means you can either hear what is going on, or you can turn on the mic and speak to the room, but not both at the same time. When you are speaking, you can't hear until you turn the mic off. This makes sense so you don't get an echo, etc. but it lags by as much as 2 seconds in my experience, so it doesn't work to carry on a conversation, if that is what you are looking for. You'll probably miss the first couple words every time.

    I placed this camera in the corner of my living room on a shelf for the best viewing angle. Doing so provides full viewing of the entire room from the left wall to the right wall. I also have two outdoor Nest cams and all three work great. I set up motion for a back door and front door, but you'll get the person alert as well. Look for sales.

    If your smart home is Google based, I think this is the best camera to buy, although price is higher than most, Google cloud service is flawless and inexpensive. No limit in the amount of cameras in your house. I'm paying for the 6 dollars service and I'm extremely harpy. Never missed an event

    I have two of these in the house and two of the outdoor Nest Cams for the front and back of the house. They are rock-solid, staying on-line almost 100%. The Nest subscription/archive service is superb. The associated iPhone app works VERY well. I wouldn't trust any other security camera. I have the Nest Thermostat and the Nest Protect. They play together very well.

    I already had the Nest Thermostat so adding this camera to my existing Nest account was a breeze. I like the motion detection feature and the pop-up notification for the Android phones. The night mode is pretty good and the option to use geo fencing to turn the camera off when you are home, works well in my house. the only issue i have, and this my be more of an app issue than a camera issue, is that you cannot set up the geofence for multiple phones.
