Great little camera. Good clarity and great night vision. Wish it had a SD card to avoid the dreaded cloud.

Nice camera. No issues. It paired well with the Google app. It was an additional camera for my home. I just wish they had a more attractive price. I still think they cost too much compared to other cameras.

I bought it to watch my father's sleeping pattern at night and it is quite useful. I don't have to get up all night to check on him. I just watch the camera and make sure he is comfortably sleeping. I highly recommend inside the home to keep an eye on the elderly if you are in a different part of the house.

Reliable Surveillance with Smart Features

I recently had the opportunity to experience the Google Nest Cam (Wired) in Snow, and it certainly stands out as a dependable home surveillance solution with some impressive smart functionalities. Here's a breakdown of my thoughts:
Pros:
Reliability: The Nest Cam's reliability is its strong suit. It delivers consistent, high-quality video, providing a clear view of the surroundings. The 1080p HD resolution captures details effectively, making it easy to discern faces and other critical features within the frame.
Smart Features: The integration of smart features is impressive. The ability to set activity zones and receive specific alerts based on these zones is incredibly useful. Additionally, the two-way audio feature works well for communication and surveillance purposes.
Ease of Use: Setting up the Nest Cam was straightforward. The user interface is intuitive, and the app is user-friendly, allowing for easy navigation and control. Monitoring and adjusting settings can be done from anywhere, offering peace of mind even when away from home.
Compatibility: It seamlessly integrates with other Google Nest products and smart home devices. The wider Nest ecosystem allows for a more connected and streamlined home surveillance experience.
Cons:
Subscription for Full Features: While the basic functionalities are quite impressive, to unlock the full potential of the Nest Cam, a subscription for the Nest Aware service is required. This might be an additional cost that some users may not initially anticipate.
In summary, the Google Nest Cam (Wired) in Snow offers excellent reliability, smart features, and ease of use, making it a strong contender in the home surveillance market. It provides peace of mind for homeowners looking to keep an eye on their property. However, the necessity of a subscription for advanced features could be a drawback for some potential users. Overall, I rate it 4 out of 5 stars for its consistent performance and smart capabilities, though the subscription requirement is a point to consider.

These Google Nest Cams are great. We use them to keep an eye on our pets while we are working, either from home or the office. The wide angles and clear picture at night and day are great. A little pricey compared to other cameras, but can be worth it since everything integrates well into the Google Home app.

I purchased this camera for indoor security, mounted high on a beige-colored wall looking down into a 2 story foyer. The detail and zoom are excellent, and controlling the camera through Google Home works quite well. I’d highly recommend!

Cameras and 2-way intercom work great. A couple steps in the setup procedure are not quite smooth, but can be figured out with a few tries. I purchased a reconditioned model that was missing the QR code. Be sure to use the code in the base instead.A
For additional users to an established location; don't forget to accept the terms and conditions to get automatically connected

This is second Google nest cam purchased but for some reason this one was more difficult to connect. Connected to Google Home after several tries, but am still unable to connect to my Nest app for some reason. Have not been able to get any assistance on how to connect other than telling me I have to delete all current settings in my nest app and then recreate the app by adding each product. That seems to be a very clumsy and inefficient process. Only reason lower rating is provided is because the quality of the product itself and the functionality with the current Google app is very good. Main issue is with synching and adding to Nest application.

Hi Catglasses, thanks for your insights. We´re sorry to hear that you disliked Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired) because of the connectivity issue with your Nest Wifi, and that the screen goes black right after the motion sensor is activated.
The issue is most likely related to an insufficient bandwidth on your network, which may be caused by a possible congestion. Removing some of your connected devices may help free up some bandwidth space and enable you to test and see if you get a better connection between Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired) and your Nest Wifi network. Once you verify congestion, we recommend contacting your Internet service provider to check your network and upgrade your bandwidth if needed.
