    I initially used Blink cameras, but they barely recorded and didn't meet my needs. After some research, I decided to invest in Google Nest cameras despite their higher cost. I'm beyond pleased with them and have installed them throughout my home, both inside and out. I would never recommend any other brand.

    Poor product design and worse technical support

    I bought 3 floodlight cameras less than a year ago. Installation was good and I was happy with them until I had to update WiFi settings. My cameras are installed >25 ft above ground and the process to update WiFi requires a manual reset at the unit itself - 1/3 units was a breeze to update; for the other 2, I couldn't get past a "something went wrong" message even with live support from Google Nest Customer Care (tried > 10x for each unit with no success). After repeated communications with Google, I got an email indicating a product replacement would be the next step. I'm still waiting for the promised email with links to initiate re-order process. I've tried to reach out to Google Customer Care via email and chat and get no responses after a week. I feel so dumb for believing the Google name would equate to a superior product with incredible technical support. I hope this review helps others not fall in the same trap as I (and wish no one has to update their WiFi ever)

    Clear video captures people from a far distance and records through their entire movement. Works well at night even when flood lights are off. Sound is great, can hear conversations of neighboors when actively watching the camera which means the mic is pretty intense. Connected easily to my Google Home for easy access.

    I had an electrician install this camera/flood light combo in place of a existing light on the back of our house. The installation seemed to go fairly simple and we were able to adjust the area of coverage to our liking. The u it blends in with the house well. The only downside to this unit is that it does not connect with the Google Nest app but I have already set up with my front doorbell. Instead, it has its own app, Google Home. Hard to believe Google couldn’t have had it connect with the other app. Control over the lighting is great.

      Hi JerseyRick, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We apologize if you’re unable to use the Nest app for your Nest Cam with Floodlight.

      Our long term plan is to use the Google Home app as the one place you can control all your favorite Nest and other smart home devices, and Google Assistant. In the near future, we’ll allow users to set up previous Nest devices and have full control in the Home app. Users with older cameras can view their camera feeds in the Google Home app alongside the new Nest Cams. Our team is working on bringing full functionality to the Google Home app so all of your cameras can be set up and controlled in one place.

      We value your feedback and your satisfaction is what drives us in improving our products and services. If you need help, please feel free to contact us anytime through this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
