Good but the app needs work
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Much better image quality than the original versions. Easier to wall mount too. The app is disappointing especially with rewinding to see previous events, it's very finicky.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Overall performance, Video quality

Good, but could be better
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cheaper than the previous Nest Cam of its type, but doesn't use the Nest app and instead can only be accessed via Google Home. Google says everything will eventually move to Home, but until then there's no way to quickly glance at all your camera views if you add this to a set of existing Nest cams.

Average
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Positives: I like that you can watch the entire stream and recorded video. Audio is good too, except when your watching your stream in the same room. For some reason you get an audio feedback loop to the point it will start screeching. Cons: Video quality is not that great even if you update the settings. I used to have a smartthings camera and the video quality on that is much clearer. However, that camera will only record in ten second intervals since they updated the software and you miss a lot of valuable footage. -Orienting the camera can be a little difficult depending on how you want it placed due to the "stand" its on. And you can only rotate the view by 180. So depending how you want it placed, your video may be side-ways. -This will NOT work in the nest app. It only works in the google home app.

Posted .Hi there, thanks for sharing your feedback with us about the Nest Cam (indoor, wired). We’re sorry to learn of such issues you highlighted in your review. We appreciate you for pointing these out as it helps us identify areas we can improve for users like you.
You can always adjust the camera settings like video quality, length of video clips, time between recorded events, and use activity zones to monitor specific areas. For optimal video quality at 1080p, an internet connection upload speed with at least 2 Mbps per camera is recommended (DSL may not qualify).
If you need to mount your Google Nest camera on a ceiling or overhang, you can simply attach the wall plate with the included screws, then secure the magnetic plate onto the backplate, and the magnetic plate can firmly hold your camera in place. The included stand is ideal for simply placing your camera indoors on a shelf, desk or counter. Just plug in the power cord and adjust the camera so it points where you want. You can also mount it with the screws to a wall or other surface. Take precautions and securely mount your camera if you plan to install it more than 6.5 ft (2 m) above the ground. Then you can use the Home app to get the view you want, and adjust the video so that it's right side up. In many cases, you can simply turn or twist the camera. If that’s not possible, you can flip the video 180 degrees with the Home app.
We understand that long time Nest users enjoy viewing their Nest camera feeds from the Nest app and web app, however, our priority with this launch was to create an integrated experience with other Google Nest speakers and displays, and 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. We chose to transition to the Home app because this app is designed for the future of the smart home, a single place to set up, manage, automate, and control your home. While the new Nest cameras and doorbells are exclusive to the Google Home app, 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.
We’re always here to help improve your experience. If you have any concerns about your Nest camera, or with using it effectively in the Home app, you may contact us anytime here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This will be the 5th camera I have added to my system. I honestly love the Google Home app and the way I can view all my cameras and get alerts for things such as people, the dog barking, or even just loud sounds. The cable is super long and includes everything needed to mount.
