    Excellent choice for outside security purposes. Effortless installation, easy setup, and VERY clear viewing.

    A most worthy upgrade

    Certainly an upgrade from the previous Outdoor Nest cam. The field of view is much larger, both taller and wider. Thats a most welcome addition. These are a smaller footprint than the older ones, which is nice. Last model's power cord and mount are not compatible, but a definite plus is the power cable is included here. Which is a savings of having to specifically buy the cable separately like in the past. Highly recommend. The AI feature is gimmicky and highly annoying - you'll disable that in the Home app after the first couple of days.

    Upgrading from the Nest Cam Outdoor and this new version is noticeably better. The plug in and cord is more streamlined the magnetic connector is more streamlined and adjustable, the picture quality is slightly better and it has Gemini built in.

    Excellent upgrade over the previous version. The 2k resolution is a solid improvement, and the Gemini AI is absolutely a step up in reducing false alerts and identifying the correct ones. Response time is faster as well. I do have one complaint: I had previously wired my house for the Outdoor/Battery versions, and, of course, Google changed the connections, so I had to rewire everything again. Google needs to create an adapter that can connect to the previous plugs, especially for outdoor cams that require a lot of hiding wires etc.

    Excellent camera! Great picture and sound quality. Easy to install and it integrates seamlessly into Google Home. Alerts on phone work well. All that said, it's more expensive than competition. So, get it on sale and is really only worth it if you have other Google Home devices.

    Really solid camera overall. The video is clear day and night, setup was easy in the Google Home app, and I like not having to worry about charging since it’s wired. The smart alerts are accurate and it just works in the background without any hassle.

    Excellent cameras. Wide view. I have them all around my business and home. We bought another to add a blind spot we just noticed. Pricey but worth it. With the home app, we can see the views from all over the world in real time

    Wow! Awesome cameras that capture everything, have facial recognition, learn as time passes what different movements are from and are very easy to set up. I have two mounted on or Class A motorhome and the magnetic mounts have no issue holding the cameras in place mounted outside the rig. Super crisp video, powerful mic and the ability to talk to whomever is outside.

    Compared to the previous version, it has higher resolution on paper and is noticeable in practice. It is a nice cloud based streaming camera and worth the price. Easy install with the provided mounts and clips.

    This camera replaced an older one. We noticed that the images are sharper, especially with the night vision. It took some effort to figure out Google Home to replace the simpler Nest, but now we are OK with it.
