Perfect cameras Smart and works very good I’ll recommend to everyone

I loved the Nest Outdoor Camera. Easy to install. Recommend it!

The features and functions are of great quality on this camera.

Good price for a good outdoor camera, very pleased.

Nest has clearly positioned themselves in the "Apple" lane of the smart home. That is: you pay a premium but get hardware that is beautiful, well-packaged, and is easy to setup and use. From a hardware-perspective, this camera is 5-stars, from unboxing, to linking with the QR code to your account, to the mounting hardware, everything works well and looks great. However, as with Apple and the iCloud, the subscription options are too pricey for what they provide and escalate quickly with multiple cameras. One issue that should be rectified in future iterations is that in order to wire this through a wall, you will need a 1 inch (!) hole to be drilled in your house due to the size of the power adapter. Otherwise, the hardware was well-thought out and executed. The camera has great clarity day and night with the ability to choose streaming quality (e.g. 1080, 720), and the motion detection works very consistently. The Nest app works well mostly, and gives you many options for scheduling the camera on and off as well as viewing the live feed, updates, and talking back if needed. The major downside that has me deducting one star is the subscription service which, though optional, is required if you want any useful recording of video or screenshots beyond the past three hours. Hopefully, as competition rises they will be forced to lower the costs ($10/month for first camera, then $5 each for 2+) or provide cheaper options. Overall, an excellent security edition to our burgeoning smart home!

Surprising quality even at night great field of vision easy setup

great cameras very easy and fast to install plug and play system

I have owned different surveillance cameras and I wanted to give it a try after reading some "great" reviews for this camera. It isn't worth it, at least for outdoors. What kind of security camera mounts on a magnet!? Thieves can just walk away with them. Constant wifi signal drop was turning me crazy! I have FIOS and the router was no more than 25 feet away and everytime I wanted to check my property there was an issue. Nest app went crazy after adding these cameras. I owned a Yale Lock and the app was just working fine before adding the cameras. Sooo many times, after installing the camera, I had to login over and over and over again. Finally, I made the bad decision of migrating my Nest account to Google :( The app went out of control and started getting constant email notification about wifi dropping, electrical issues, camera disconnected. Wow, I was able to return them, get my money and buy something else way cheaper that I don't have to pay a crazy subscription to be able to store footage of recent events. Bye, Nest Cams!

Set up and installation were easy. Phone interface with Nest Aware is excellent. The only drawback that I've found is that when there is a power outage, the camera doesn't automatically come back on line after power is restored. I had to unplug and plug it back in. Not normally an issue except I need to get a ladder in order to do it.

We love our nest cameras. Have them inside and out. These were a great addition to our driveway and back patio. Love the fact that I’m not replacing batteries all the time. They also come with very long cords so you can get it to the right spot and still have reach to an outlet.

I would tell my friends about this nest camera great night vision

So easy to set up and it just works which is amazing

I've had these cameras for 2 years. Easy to install and set up.

Easy to set up, easy to use. Apps work great on iOS and Android.

Excellent streaming, and sound. Have now purchased two cameras!

Easily integrates with the rest of the Google products. Google has also simplified the Google Nest Aware subscription to include multiple devices for the same cost, so it made the decision even easier to go with the product. Works well in all lighting conditions.

perfect & affordable. The picture quality is perfect.

We have installed one of the outdoor cameras so far. It is working well. The second we plan to put in a difficult spot to research so that will take some time to install. My only comments are that white is so easy to see, so we are painting our camera to match our house colors. Also the microphones really don't work well. You can barely hear them at all. But we are looking more for video protection so that is okay.

Nest cameras have an awesome video and easy to setup

Easy to set up and get started no issues so far to reports
