    A set it and forget it camera

    Google has been known for trying to have easy to use devices as of late. This camera is one of those set it and forget it kind of devices. Packaging is simple and effective. I was able to set it up with just a minor hiccup initially where I needed to scan the QR image more than once, for some weird issue, since the Google Home app didn't process the connection. Once that was successfully connected to my home devices, I went in easily to setup the event notifications in settings. What makes this worth a consideration is the ability to setup your event recordings for specific people, pets, or even smoke or carbon monoxide alarms. You can even define these further by selecting zones. Whether you are home or not, you are able to configure the recordings to save and or notify you of those activities. I will say, your new security camera will benefit from having the Google Home Premium subscription but it isn't necessary. I'm unfortunately in Illinois where face detection isn't allowed by local law. This is the main feature I would love to have in order to identify when family versus strangers come to my front door. There are other Gemini features that you may find are worth looking into.

    The Google Nest Cam Indoor camera is exactly what I was needing! It integrated with my ADT security system very easily. The image quality is very good, and the field of vision is amazing. Very easy to set up and mount onto the wall. Overall, by far my favorite camera set-up I've ever had.

    With 2K resolution, the image and video quality is noticeably better than previous gen. Was able to set this up with the Google Home app without issues. Have not had a chance to try out the AI feature, but good to know the feature is there if needed. Only compliant I have is adjustments to rotation and angle remain limited. Other than that, solid upgrade!

    Smart Camera Gets Smarter

    I previously had the wired indoor Nest camera which already quickly became one of my favorite cameras. The new wired Nest camera takes what made the previous gen great and improves upon it. Hardware wise, on the outside not much has changed. The camera still has the smooth plastic matte finish that makes in blend in if the surrounding areas are close to the color of your choice. It’s still roughly the same size as the previous gen so it won’t stand out too much. The optics are where the upgrades lie with a better field of view and also a clearer and more sharper resolution for video. Software gets an upgrade thanks to Gemini which it comes with a free trial to test out the new features such as daily summaries and detailed notifications of what it’s viewing. Google Home manages the camera and settings which are easy to setup and access within the app. Overall it is a great smart camera which is a no brainer for those in the Google ecosystem and even if you are not, it could be a great start to show you what the Google and Nest ecosystem is capable of

    This camera works great in our home to keep us informed about the house when we are not there. The camera gives good clarity and you will need to buy into a cloud plan if you want to capture and save videos of any length. Super easy to set it up!

    I'm very impressed with the overall quality of these new Google Nest cameras. The video streaming is crisp and clear, loading is quick, and they are very intelligent about recording only the people, animals, etc that l want and nothing more. They were easy to install and never miss a beat.

    Camera works well, but the setup can be annoying, as Google still hasn't figured out how to make devices that work as seamless and painless as Apple has. Their recognition needs some work. It can't tell the difference between a dog and a person.

    Here’s a clean, straight-shooting review you can drop anywhere: Review: Google Nest Cam Indoor (Wired, 3rd Gen – 2K, Gemini) I switched over from a Eufy pan-and-tilt, and honestly, this Nest Cam is on a different level. The recording is far more consistent, the motion detection actually catches what I need, and the Google integration is seamless. Setup was quick, it stays connected, and the 2K video looks sharp day and night. If you’re already in the Google ecosystem, this is the camera to get... reliable, simple, and it just works.

    This is a great upgrade compare to last versions. For the price worth the upgrade and would love to change all my cameras. Google provides long lasting products and tech affordable and cutting edge now with AI features. 2k is far superior then older models. Also you can tell speed and loading has improved.

    Great indoor camera wide range. Can zoom in very closely. Very clear picture. Also using automations one can set up motion detection and leave the cameras off which automatically turn on once they detect whatever you set as a parameter. Also Best buy had these at a great price and delivered expeditiously.
