Great indoor camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great camera for indoors. I replaced an offbrand camera from Amazon that I had been using when babysitting my in-law's dog. If you're brand new to the Nest ecosystem like I was, this is a great addition. I know most of the bad reviews are due to the disruption from previous Nest generations. This is a fine camera. If you have it indoors, you will probably want to disable the events in the Home app to not blast a notification every time you walk by this camera.

sharp video & easy to use / setup
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The company that manufactured my Dad's home security cameras decided to make their cloud-based remote viewing capability obsolete, and after a workaround I discovered also stopped working, it was time to upgrade to something simpler with higher quality video, and these Nest cams did the trick and more.

Great Camera Despite Annoying Changes
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s disappointing that Google doesn’t allow these new cameras to integrate into the standalone Nest App like the previous generations. If you have a mix you can only view these cams in the Google Home App. That said, video quality and field of view are top notch for the price point and installation is a breeze.

Posted .Hi there joshgifford, it's unfortunate to hear about your disappointment with the move we made to the Google Home app for the new generations of Nest cameras and doorbells, including Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired).
We wanted to make the Google Home app as the one place you can control all your favorite Nest and other smart home devices with the Google Assistant, hence the reason for the move to the Google Home app. If you already have some Nest cameras installed in your home, you may transfer them to the Google Home app. Here´s a guide that you can follow: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9893532
Our support team would be happy to answer any questions you may have about Nest Cam (Battery). You may reach out to our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Excellent camera

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent camera. Great clarity. We like that they are AC powered, so no batteries to keep charged. We have seven of these models (and several outdoor models). We are still on the Nest trial which gives us 30 days of history, not sure if we will opt for higher subscription which gives us 60 days of event history and 10 days of 24/7 video history.

Great quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are great cameras and we us them to substitute for cctv cameras in small rooms. Great quality.
I would recommend this to a friend I got it on sale
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Camera is fine for what it is. Just like any camera of this type, a subscription is basically required to use this fully. IR lights are insanely bright, so bright that you can put tape over them and still retain some functionality. That being said, Ive never heard a louder click come from a camera when switching to IR. Good lord, lol. The audio is very "meh". Anything making noise near the camera will completely drown out anything else. Not ideal. The provided cord for power is USB? WHY?! Im not cutting the cable to find out, but I doubt you could extend this wire as easily. Im talking cutting and splicing. Most USB extension cables require...power...soooo....poor planning on their part. Who knows, maybe the only wires being used are power and ground. Camera feels sturdy. I wouldnt mount this outdoors, though.

Posted .Hey there, Brandon. Sorry to see your experience with the Nest Cam (Indoor, wired) wasn’t quite the best. We’d like to hear more of your feedback when you get a chance — here’s a link to share more: https://google.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2aStd8wsbcLGvwG
Night Vision does not automatically switch off
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have two Nest Cams for indoor use. For both of them, the Auto setting for night vision is not reliable. I have to continually go to the settings and turn night vision off, then turn Auto on again. Basically, the Auto feature is not Auto at all and I have to do this daily on both cameras (in different structures and on different networks). I have read reviews from others with this same issue where they did a factory reset of the camera and still had the issue, so seems to be a camera and/or software bug. Other than this, I am completely satisfied with everything else.

Its a good camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got the last version and this version. Its a good camera.

It gets the job done snd i csn see and monitor the things that i want.

Posted .Hey there Mack, thanks for using Google Nest cameras, and for leaving feedback on the Nest Cam (indoor, wired). The new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Google Home app, and users with previous versions of Nest cameras can view their camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams. However, setup and control for previous versions of cameras/doorbell are found in the Nest app. We request your patience as we're working on bringing the cameras’ full functionality to the Google Home app as we want to create an integrated experience with other Nest and smart home devices.
We hope you're enjoying the most out of the camera features. And if you find yourself in need of any assistance, feel free to find our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Our eye in the sky
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We replaced a vtech baby monitor with this and the upgrade in image quality is remarkable considering the specs of the device. The previous device would constantly disconnect from our home network due to signal issues. This one has had zero issues since being set up. Something we couldn’t be more thankful for when trying to keep an eye on our little one.
