Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love the lights, plenty bright. I like the way the motion detection functions. The camera is very clear and in a great spot. My biggest complaint, I already had older Nest gear, like the door bell, that use the Nest app. These cameras only work with Google home.

Easy to install, very bright and easy to control when linked in with my Google home setup. I would definitely buy a second unit for the backyard, if I could find it on sale again.

Product was quite easy to install. Camera produces high quality image and video. Sturdy and secure. Definitely recommend to have for home maintenance and security

Glad that Google finally released a Nest Floodlight with 24/7 recording (with Nest Aware subscription). I have many other Nest cameras, so this was a nice addition. Video quality is good, the floodlight it bright. I like how you have the option to keep the floodlight on if needed. Biggest con is that this camera does NOT work with the Nest app or the Nest web interface. Hopefully the Google Home app will reach feature parity with the Nest App in the near future so I can finally ditch the Nest App

I was hesitant about purchase because I wanted the Ring product instead.I took a chance on the purchase and I’m extremely satisfied with the picture quality, overall design and sound. The picture quality is excellent and displays in 1080p. I was able to sync with the other NEST products that I had purchased prior. I was extremely impressed with the product I purchased two more. It was easy to pair with wi-fi and app is easy to use and monitor the captured area. If like me and wanted to purchase Ring, I definitely recommend this instead.

Great camera and floodlight. Was super easy to intall!!!

I love the Nest line of products and was excited about this. There's not much to say - installation was simple (instructions were good, the fixture replaces an existing floodlight with no additional wiring/changes needed). One caveat is that I have a long driveway, I live on a hill, in a small city (~100k people). To get alerts when vehicles approached I had to point the camera down (removing the road/city from the field of view), otherwise, it would alert me when cars were simply driving down the street. Not super helpful.

Bright lights and a great camera. Easy to install.

The overall design of this is pretty wonky. Its weird how the camera part is magnetically held to the base. Someone could easily steal or disable the cam by cutting the single exposed wire if they wanted. Other than that, install was a breeze, and it works as intended. Sensors pick up any slight movement and it notifies my phone immediately. Video quality is pretty good, and the sound is good as well. Only downside app wise, is it wont work with the Nest app. Can only view it on the Google Home app.

Great picture !! This camera is of the highest quality and Best Buy has the best price!!

The camera quality is fantastic! Installation was done by a licensed electrician (which is recommended if getting the hard wired model). The camera can be sensitive so prepare for alerts (and yes I have adjusted it’s sensitivity). The flood lights work great as well. It reall illuminates my yard very well. I’m just not a big fan of the Google app to run it. It can be slow to load the feed.

The camera is superb .. seamless integration and quality. Google should start direct integration with players like Samsung etc .

Lights are cery broght, camera gives a clear picture and motion sensing is good. My only issue with it was the installation. It doesnt come with paper instructions and i didnt see the square i was supposed to scan until after i had started installing the pieces in the wrong order. It was pretty annoying until i saw how to get the instructions. Oh, and the wirenuts that come with it are junk. Once installed, its great!

Easy to install. No charging necessary. Tons of added security and peace of mind. Also doubles as an intercom system great for communication with my son. I can also watch him in the pool while getting things done around the house.

Such a great camera, able to turn off the floodlight and still see clearly with night vision. Floodlight is super bright, lights up our whole backyard, and is very quick to respond to movement

Build quality is great and comes with all the necessary hardware for installation. Camera is hefty and has a good weight to it. The inclusion of the anti-theft wire is appreciated in the age of the penny pinching accessory market. Software installation was a breeze with the QR codes. The only gripe i had is that it is not compatible with the Nest app that my other google products are connected to and instead uses the Google Home app. Not a huge deal migrating over to the new app but was a big fan of the Nest app. Notifications are fast and responsive to human detection. My family and i were very surprised at how bright the flood lights got and even had to dial it down a bit to avoid the neighbors getting upset. Overall would highly recommend this product to friends and family.

Overall I love this camera. Crystal clear images and super bright floodlight. For some reason Google designed this product to only be installed perpendicular to a wall. I still installed it hanging from my garage awning and it works. The installation guide warns your detection area will be affected, but I found it to be more than adequate even on the lowest sensitivity setting.

Super easy to install, great quality, and works wonderfully. Love the dimmable flood light and zone setting.

We love this light and camera. It was easy to install and fit right into our google home system.

The nest camera is absolutely necessary with the nest doorbell to see everything
