    It was easy to install outside. Trying to get it on my nest hub has been not so easy. I guess I just don't know how to do it. Will keep trying. But the picture is good on my tablet in day and night.

    Exceeded my expectations, actually ended up buying 4 of them so my entire homes' perimeter is covered. I did end up signing up for the 10 day 24/7 surveillance history and all the benefits that come with it like home/away assist, scheduling, etc.

    This camera is great. The resolution is awesome. It has a wide angle for a wide ranging view. We will purchase more for other locations at the house. Speaker works well also. Can talk and listen.

    These things work really well, both with day and night viewing. Fun to capture what's going on in the off hours. Helpful. Google's account setup and nagging is annoying, but what's new?

    We use our cameras to watch our dogs and of course watch our doors and yard for security. It’s not an incredibly high resolution video feed, but it does the job! We subscribe to Nest Aware for the home so we can have 24-7 surveillance and stored data.

    Best Wifi Cameras

    After trying a few different wifi cameras I have to say that these Nest Cams are the better choice. They do require an electrical outlet but in the long run you wont have to worry about the headache of watching for and replacing low batteries.

    I held out for this even though there were others already on the market b/c I like UI and easy connectivity of their indoor cameras. It works just as well and the all in one app can't be beat.

    I originally purchased another camera system that was wireless, but it would lag too much before recording or not record at all. I returned that system to Best Buy and bought the Nest system. It was easy to set up and it has continuous recording!

    Nest products tend to be a little more expensive than competitors, but they work well. Glad we bought these instead of others. Hardware quality is great and software is very easy to use, especially if you’re not so tech-savvy.

    Nest finally releases a camera that is suppose to be outside and it honestly feels a little faster than indoor camera, also has more than enough cable length and wall attachments and anchors.

    Great picture quality and many options to select how you need to use the cameras. A bit pricey for a lake of zoom in picture quality though.

    Owned several years. Before Google it operated well but after Google it was dropping signal randomly at all hours of the day and night. Have a fast internet connection and even upgraded to mesh router. At the same time, no problem with Arlo connections during same time period. Ended up replacing with more Arlo Pro Cams with no connection problems in same locations. Since added several indoor Blink Mini Cams with no connection problems. Another downside is $50/yr for each device. Not bad if you only own 1 but if you have 6-8, too expensive!

    I was debating between these and the new outdoor iq cameras. I'm completely satisfied with my purchase of these. Getting 2 for not much more than one of the other. These cameraa are awesome and have every feature you could need

    These are similar in nature to all the Nest products in that they are super easy to set up and I absolutely love the high powered magnetic holder that allows you to position and reposition. I personally think the resolution is lacking but overall, I am not aware of a better wireless system.

    Wonderful Cameras

    This Nest Cameras is a wonderful product and easy to be set up for remote viewing. If you want to have recording, you have to pay for a 10 or 30 day history plan from them. It is worth it for being able to view the cameras from your phone.

    Disappointed

    I had high hopes for this camera, I'm sure many people will use this item without any complaints, but my major issue with this item is its DC transformer. This device ships with a long cable. A plug inserts into your 110v receptacle, and there's a cord, maybe about 20 feet. In the middle of the cable lies a round DC transformer, and then about another 10 feed of cable leading into the camera. This poses an aesthetics issue when this devices is installed on the exterior of your dwelling: the security camera leaves exposed cabling. If you truly want a secure camera, one would tend to install its cabling inside conduit, but with this weird transformer, it proves impossible to install this thing in conduit without cutting the cable and splicing... not something that I wanted to do on a $200 item. I returned it.

    They are very clear. The one thing I noticed is that in the Android platform the voice to speak to people is very low. On the iOS platform it’s a little louder just enough to hear. The volume is not adjustable on either OS. Other than that they are ok.
