Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Google Nest Cam with Floodlight is a premium smart security solution that combines powerful lighting, intelligent detection, and seamless smart home integration — all wrapped in a sleek, modern design. ⭐ Pros: Excellent Video Quality: The camera delivers crisp 1080p HD video with HDR, even in challenging lighting conditions. Night vision is sharp, and the floodlight improves visibility even further. Smart Detection: What sets this camera apart is its on-device processing — it can intelligently detect people, animals, and vehicles without a subscription. Familiar face detection is available with a Nest Aware Plus plan. Bright, Motion-Activated Floodlights: The dual LED floodlights are extremely bright and activate instantly when motion is detected. They're a strong deterrent against intruders and also helpful in poorly lit areas. Two-Way Audio & Alerts: Clear audio quality and timely, customizable alerts make it easy to interact or respond remotely through the Google Home app. Google Home Ecosystem: If you’re already using Google Assistant and Nest products, the integration is smooth and responsive. Live feeds can be viewed on Nest Hubs or Chromecast-enabled displays. ⚠️ Cons: No Apple HomeKit Support: While ideal for Google smart homes, there's no native support

Excellent camera and floodlight. The floodlight motion detector has a wide field of detection (wider than the camera), and works well. The floodlight is bright. Needs to install into an existing floodlight electrical box. If you have your floodlight attached to a switch, consider getting a switch cover to avoid accidentally turning off the light. The camera is battery powered and will record even without power to the light.

The camera is same as all other nest cam, which been using for years, not much issue beside something slow connecting, more like is the app issue; however, the spotlights range isn’t that great, don’t expect to light up area far away, the end of your driveway for a normal house is probably its limit

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

The Google Nest Cam with Floodlight is a great option for anyone looking for a smart security camera with a built-in floodlight. It has 1080p HDR video quality, night vision, and two-way talk capabilities. It also has built-in intelligence that can tell the difference between people, animals, and vehicles.

I love this product so much I got my daughter and son and law 3 of them. excellent reception, picture quality and alert. will highly recommend it to anyone who wants to heighten security in there household

great! it works really well and helps maintain light & video

I love this spotlight camera I can see if someone’s in the yard

Simple installation, easy to connect to the (Neat) mesh wifi, simple to adjust both the lights and the camera. It did take half a day or so for it to be recognized in my Nest Aware subscription, and for the zone setup feature to show in the Home app. Until I could create a zone, it drove me nuts with alerts. Now it works exactly like I want. I think I'll get another.

Lights are bright and recording is crisp and clear.

Beautiful and very well made product. Camera is amazing to include the range of the flood lights at night. Clean look which enhances the look of my home.

The Nest Cam with Floodlight is the perfect way to keep your home safe and secure, and to deter unwanted visitors. It's also a great way to entertain yourself by watching funny videos of people trying to sneak into your yard. I've had my Nest Cam for a few weeks now, and I've already seen some hilarious stuff. Like the time the raccoon tried to climb up my fence, but fell off and knocked himself out. Or the time the deer got stuck in my bushes and had to be rescued by the fire department. But the best part about the Nest Cam is that it's always there to protect your home. Even when you're not. So if someone tries to break into your house while you're away, the Nest Cam will catch them on camera and send you a notification to your phone. So if you're looking for a way to keep your home safe and secure, and to have a few laughs along the way, I highly recommend the Nest Cam with Floodlight.

Overall the camera and the floodlight are good. However, calling this a Google "Nest" Cam is misleading since it does not work within the Nest app. It would have been more appropriate to call it a Google Home Cam as the camera can only be monitored through the Google Home app. I found this to be inconvenient as I have my other cameras, Nest Protect, and thermostats across multiple homes in my Nest app. Installation was easy and the directions were excellent. Still disappointed in having to use a different app. If you have multiple homes in your Google home app you'll also have to have different subscriptions for video history or just lump them all into one home. If you want to stay with your Nest app, I wouldn't recommend this. Just get a camera and a floodlight, but if you've fully migrated to the Google Home app then you've got nothing to lose.

Was skeptical to spend the money for the Google flood light but glad I did. The flood lights are very bright and pick up motion from a pretty good distance. Having this wired means not needing to recharge it like the other Google cameras I have installed. Definitely worth the premium!

perfect replacement to the rear sliding door light & works perfect with the other google products. Clear images & bright light. easy to use & looks modern like the doorbell. as a total tec member i got free install but it would be simple for the non tec members...i did my door bell because it wasn't free install at the time of purchase.

Expensive but was able to obtain a $90 discount. Still expensive even with the discount. The unit was easy to install and setup. I like the ability to adjust the light intensity. The unit works well and integrates nicely into the Google Home app.

Great Camera and it was easy to install. So glad that google came out with cameras that are directly connected because the whole running on the battery thing is not good yet. The only issue I have is that total tech does not get free installation even though every other google camera has it.

This camera and flood light works perfectly over my pool. I feel much safer with it back there and being able to access the image from my phone within seconds, even though my yard is fenced in. A great piece of mind!

The camera worked well once we got one that would connect with our network. Had to exchange 2 that would not. 3 rd unit had no issue. Replaced a Google nest battery unit that died after 2 1/2 yrs.

The ability to dim the flood lights make this device perfect for what we needed. A simple light with a camera for the side of our house.
