Nice size, good price, easy setup and quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this new camera but wish it had more angle to maneuver. Great image quality and easy to setup and configure. Not bulky and doesn't stand out much wherever you put it. Hoping Google will improve the level of angle it can make when setting on walls.

I would recommend this to a friendGoogle nest camera
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works well! Easy to setup, no hassle at all. There are way cheaper options, but the catch is that they don't integrate with google assistant. Still not a bad price for a great product.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Camera with a couple misses.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have multiple Nest cameras around my house, and this was my first of the next generation. Easy to setup and add to your environment, great night shot ability and clear picture to boot. It is a bit disappointing that it does not integrate into the existing Nest Aware infrastructure so using the Nest App doesn't integrate this camera. Google Home is used instead. The adjustability when mounting directly to a wall is also lacking, I ended up buying a wall mount that provided more directions of freedom in adjustment.

Posted .Hi there, MichaelT. Thank you for being a loyal advocate of our Google Nest cameras. We appreciate that you had an easy time setting up your Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired) and that you liked the image quality. However, we understand your disappointment with the move to the Home app.
We wanted to create the Google Home app as the one place where you can control all your favorite Nest devices and other smart home devices with the Google Assistant. Here are some benefits you can get by using the Google Home app with your Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired):
- Automatic security protections. The Home app offers features like suspicious activity detection, 2-Step Verification, and Security Checkup to enhance your security.
- Seamless device integration. Your Google Nest devices and services will work together efficiently. For instance, if you have a Nest Cam and a Nest Hub, you can simply say, "Hey Google, show me the backyard camera" to cast your camera stream to your display without any additional setup.
- Simplified account management. You can use one account to sign into both the Nest and Google Home apps, making the user experience more streamlined.
- Consistent settings. Your homes and home members will be aligned across the Nest and Google Home apps, providing you with a more cohesive and coherent user experience.
- You may set up your older Nest cameras to the Google Home app. Check out this help article to learn more: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9893532
We understand that you may have some questions and concerns about the transition. Our support team would be delighted to answer them and ensure that you have a worthwhile experience throughout the process. Please feel free to reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
Google-centric home
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We are a Google-centric home. We have two nest hubs and two nest minis. I bought this camera to replace an older indoor security. It was easy to set up and although it took a while to figure out all the possible settings, the flexibility these settings provide are great.
I would recommend this to a friendPeople apparently can’t read product descriptions
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great, wide angle is nice. The price is even better. Google Home app is so much nicer than the Nest app, I’m glad they’re migrating over. People complaining that it didn’t work in the Nest app aren’t paying much attention to what they’re purchasing. They’re bringing all their products under one app, not sure how that’s a bad thing.

Great Camera, some features paywalled.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A good product! Does what it says it will and lets me watch my dog during the day. Minus one star because the best features (history, face detect, etc) require a monthly subscription to use.

Posted .Hi Kathryn, thanks for giving us time to share your feedback about the Nest Cam (Indoor, Wired). Nest has long been focused on delivering quality products to our customers. We’re also focused on giving our customers value for the price, including three hours of event history right out of the box for the first time ever. On-device processing also gives our customers smart alerts and Activity Zones, which historically have required a subscription. There's no fee to stream full resolution live video and receive basic notifications, as long as your camera is connected to the internet. However, you’ll need a Nest Aware subscription to record video and receive advanced notifications. With a Nest Aware subscription your video will be saved to the cloud and you’ll get extra features. Nest Aware is a paid subscription service you can use with your Nest products to help keep you informed about important events at your home. Check what you can get with the Nest Aware subscription, here’s the link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9233159

Works well but needs the google home app to view
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The camera works great and is significantly faster at sending notifications then the old Nest Cams. I just wish they would allow you to view it in the nest app instead of the google home app.

Posted .Hi Maverick, thanks for sharing a review with us about the Nest Cam (indoor, wired), and we’re glad that it works great for you. We understand that longtime Nest users enjoy viewing the Nest cameras using the Nest app. However, the new Nest cameras and doorbell are exclusive to the Home app because we wanted to create an integrated experience with your speakers and displays. Our long term plan is to use the Google Home app as the one place you can control all of your favorite Nest and other smart home devices, as well as Google Assistant. Users with older cameras, like you, can view camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Doorbell and Nest Cams.
