    Camera completely stopped working within 30 days

    After purchasing this camera, installing and having it work for about 30 days, the camera completely went dead. Unfortunately, I am beyond the returnable period, therefore am stuck with a dead camera and no options. When it worked, the camera was great. I obviously got a lemon.

      Hi Matthew,

      Thanks for reaching out to let us know about this issue with your Nest Cam Outdoor. We're truly sorry for this and we fully understand the frustration of having an issue after just 30 days of use.

      We recommend checking on three things that might cause the issue with your Nest Cam Outdoor:
      - Check the power outlet. Move the camera and plug it into a different outlet.
      - Check the Adapter/Cord and inspect the cable for damage. Remove/re-insert current cable into the adapter and wiggle it (you can’t wiggle it on the camera side), watching the LED for changes.
      - Lastly, check the port on your Nest camera. Check if the USB cable fits snugly into the port on the camera, and make sure it doesn't feel loose or fall out. You can test with both the provided USB cable and a different USB cable if one is available.

      You can always get in touch with us for further assistance as well. Please take the time to visit the following support link for us to take a look at the issue: https://support.google.com/googlenest/contactflow Nest

    We purchased several of these to keep track of the animals in the barn. They work great as long as they stay connected to the wifi. My iPhone will show full wifi connection but the camera doesn't always find the router.

    just only one thing, the gps function didn't work well, when I’ve left home the cam did not change its mode to on. Currently I use the cam in mode on, without matter my location, inside or outside home.

    Needed an outdoor cam that runs 24/7. This is a great little camera. Wish I didn't have to sign up for another service because I already have a ring doorbell. Other than that it's pretty good.

    Really easy to set up and view cam footage. Only 2 drawbacks for me. Cloud storage is nice, but I'd prefer local storage. 1080p is decent, but 4k is way better and you don't get 4k.

    Easy to set up and use. Very helpful when we’re not at home to see what’s going on. The camera has a wide angle picture and it sees for a good distance.

    Love the cameras, easy to install. Night time vision isn't the greatest but we placed the camera near the door so if someone will approach it it should be able to catch faces but no so good for a distance face recognition

    Not well made camera.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Great camera, until it breaks! I had mine for a little more than two years and then the picture turned a bright pink hue. I went through a diagnostic service with Google and they said it had just broken and they would not replace it. For an outdoor security camera, which was not in direct sunlight, it's fairly poor quality.

    This works far better than Arlo. It DOES have 2 way talking that works in the app. Camera started off working but after 2 weeks started cutting out for video Then stopped altogether Anyone who says this doesn't let you download full clips like the other reviewer just below me- Read the instructions online or use support It DOES allow you to download custom clips of any length not just snapshots Use the desktop version for setting your custom clip The app doesn't allow custom downloads the web page on the full site version does nest get a hint tho and allow custom clips from the cellular app

    Great cameras for a month.

    These cameras work perfectly for the month they give you the free nest aware account. After that, you're held hostage for the footage. As far as I can tell, there's no way to hook them to your own hard drive. So if you don't pay for the nest aware account, the cameras are virtually useless.

    This is a great set of security cameras that are always on, so you don't miss any second of footage and don't need to worry about changing out batteries.
