    I would highly recommend the Nest Camera. It works great. The only drawback is the large USB plug on the cord. It makes for drilling a 7/8" hole through the wall if you plan on running the electric cord inside the house.

    For the price and ease of use I don’t think there’s many cameras that are better. Very quick notifications and simple to install. I have 4 of these installed and couldn’t be happier.

    Have a hidden gate and just ask my Alexa Show Gen 2 to show me the gate and I get a perfect image of the gate to allow me to let the dog out safely. Takes about 5 seconds to show the image. No need for monthly subscription with type of application.

    I love these cameras. I have them installed in my home as well as my elder mothers home. We even have them installed at our business. The picture is great quality and you can hear a pin drop.

    Great cameras. I added three of these to my nest door bell and they work great. You have to have a subscription to utilize the history viewing but their plan is much better priced now.

    I absolutely love these cameras. The packaging was world class. Easy to setup and easy to install. The 130 degree angle covers a lot. The camera picks up people driving down the street, people talking. It is waterproof and even has wonderful night vision. I love these.

    We had been looking for a camera security system for 3 years. When I came into Best Buy and talked to the girl there that had one I was impressed. We bought it and I must say very easy to install easy to use and monitors my yard great. I feel safe having this system.

    Was debating between this and the Ring pro. While the ring pro is cheaper month to month, with nest you have the flexibility to attach pretty much anywhere and provides wider viewing angle capability than the ring. Picture is very good, and camera has performed perfectly.

    these nest cams have great high definition! better than the ring stick up cam, however i have been running into issues with the connectivity, it probably due to my internet speed, but the camera would go offline once or twice a day, bummer but i still highly recommend

    Don't expect consistent recording

    Summary of my experience: Pros: - Clear image - Reviewing camera history from anywhere - Typically timely activity alerts Cons: - Cameras (original and replacement) turn off or lose wifi connection frequently (4+ times a day), typically in 15 minute increments. My internet connection is not an issue - I have gigabit internet and have excellent wifi connection (~430 mbps on wifi) at the site of camera - measured on cell phone. Per nest customer service, my first camera was overheating. Note that it was winter in TX and to my knowledge the camera was not being affected by any external heat sources (e.g. direct sunlight, hot air from attic). In the app settings it notes that 1080p recording may result in a warm camera. Did they mean overheating? I'm having the same issues with my second camera. Waiting from customer service to get my third. Cannot recommend this version of the product.

    These cameras have very good visual quality. The installation was relatively easy, the hardest part is drilling a hole to feed the wire, mounting them is easy and you can adjust them as needed by rotating. The audio is also very good.

    Overall great camera, it does what I need it to do. I think the engineering at the power cord could be better, so you don't have to drill a half dollar hole through your house when installing outdoors. The quality is great and the alerts are fantastic!

    Easy to set up and quality picture. Only thing I don't like is paying the monthly fee for Nest aware for every device/camera. You don't have to pay but then all you get is snapshots of movement on the camera and not a video.

    I'm in my late 60s so hardly tech savvy. I bought this on a Best Buy tech recommendation. Boy , was he right. So easy to set up camera and so easy to add app and use settings. I'm using it as a doggie cam.
