Batter life and overall functionality is poor

Collectively between my multiple accounts I probably on over 100 nest products. I won't go so far as to say this is by far the worst, but the battery life is terrible if it is in an area that is used somewhat frequently. Don't expect it to last very long. It does not turn on when events need to be captured, and it captures events that do not need to be captured.

Surprisingly good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am new to the Nest/Google ecosystem, and thus far it's been a pleasant surprise. The packaging was outstanding, everything was nicely organized and strategically placed. The instructions were clear and precise, and took me all of a few minutes to setup. The camera is well constructed with a heavy, premium-feeling, the magnetic mount is solid and firmly holds the camera in place. The camera itself was larger than anticipated, about twice as large as other cams around my home, but I found the image quality to be great. I use the camera indoors and I really appreciate the fact it can be configured to only activate when I'm away from home so that I'm not inundated with alerts as I move about my home, and for this reason battery life has been exceptional. Not a big fan of the Google Home app however, can definitely use some improvements in this department, but overall it appears to be a quality product.

Whow

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] this Next Cam is so easy to install and set up with the Google Home App. It is battery powered which makes it great for indoor or outdoor use. The battery time frame depends on how many events / videos you run per day and could last up to 7 months if only running about 4 times a day. He has a lot to offer and the picture quality is really great for a camera.

Excellent!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this camera. It was super easy to install and setup. Drill two holes, screw on the base, and the camera snaps on. Setup through the Google Home app was really simple. I like that you can tag familiar faces and get alerts with their name when the camera sees them. I'm thinking about ordering some more for the rest of the house!

Easy to Setup / Good Image Quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a week ago and am happy that I did. The setup was very easy; you download the Google Home app and add the camera to your list of devices. I wanted to attach the camera to a metal fence I have surrounding my home to see what animal was coming into my backyard and tearing up my garden. Low and behold, the night after installing the camera, I found a feral cat is the culprit. There is even some smart built-in AI that changes the notifications you receive on your phone depending on what the camera observes. For example, when I woke up in the morning, I saw "Animal detected" as a notification on my phone. And when I went to go take a look at my garden, it says "person detected". So far it's been outside for a week in the Texas sun and the battery is still showing 99% remaining. Overall, I am very impressed and would highly recommend.

Great Picture and Super Responsive!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We installed our Nest Cam on our front porch so that we can see who's at the door and who's walking up the front sidewalk. Our front porch is pretty small and recessed so I was surprised that the Nest Cam would be able to capture the door and sidewalk. The lens is wide enough to capture it all. Installation was super easy! There are very few parts - just the camera, charging cable, the mounting plate and a few screws. The mounting plate is magnetic so it's really easy to adjust the camera angle and move it up and down to get it just where you want it. The magnet is very strong. It definitely won't move unless you move it. Setting up the camera in the Google Home app was equally simple. The app recognized the new device and I was viewing the video from the camera within minutes. The coolest thing about the Nest Cam is that it will detect faces on the camera and let you name or label those faces and then let you know when that person is at the door. Very cool! Overall, I'm very pleased with the Nest Cam and I am already planning where I would put another one.

Superb security

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've recently invested into smart home devices and features within my home and the Nest indoor/outdoor camera integration was seamless. I particularly like that the camera is made as 2 parts; the base and the camera. The camera is easy to place into the base for to the heavy duty magnet that connects to the base. It's very easy to change the camera angle this way too! The battery lasts much longer than I had anticipated and charging is a breeze! The installation was so easy and the placement can be changed as much as I may see fit. Also, it's important that I note the app features of the device- excellent viewing options with clear camera visuals both day and night. I added one of the best cameras to my home and have already ordered 2 more. Great product!

I'm very happy

My Nest Cam (battery) has been running for a month. First 2 weeks on battery while I waited for the 10m waterproof cable. Installation was simple, battery life is great. Video quality is very good but laggy when starting to record. Sometimes it would record an event other times it would catch just the last couple of seconds and other other times it would completely miss the event by recording after it was over. Since installing the 10m power cable all my recording problems stopped. Very happy with my Nest Cam(battery) purchase.

Just what we needed to monitor dogs out back

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Originally got this to watch for our senior dog in the back while hes out playing and to set the zones where it would notify us when he's ready to come back in. The camera offers great quality during night and day and the notifications work exactly how we had planned as far as setting the zones so it picks him up at the door. The set up on these cameras is super easy and all you have to do is just scan the QR code on the lens of the camera. I also like how Google has integrated all their devices into one app now so I can just open it up and all of my cameras, doorbells, thermostats etc are there. We have it mounted by our back door on the outside under a small lip that keeps it from direct weather but so far it has handled below freezing temperatures, snow and rain being blown on it with no issue.
