Nest Cam Outdoor or Indoor, Battery - 2nd Generation - 2 Count (Pack of 1)

You may be scared at first seeing it only attaches by magnet, but WOW that puppy is strong. I have been using this camera consistently for several weeks now, and it has been great! I live on a fairly busy road, so when set to people/movement the camera died quite often and I felt like I was charging it a lot. However, once I set a zone to the only spot I really cared about, this camera lasts for a couple, if not several weeks at a time! Weather has not seemed to effect it at this point, with the camera being mostly covered by the porch roof, but still exposed to rain and wind often. Though not used as often, the audio function works very well. The audio recording is quite strong, and the speak function has been consistently useful. If you're looking to keep your home safe, or just have an extra eye out and say hello, this is the camera for you!

This is a very solid, dependable IoT security camera. Its only real problem that I've found is in solar powered deployments, where it will sometimes run its own battery dry if not aimed carefully away from things like busy sidewalks and streets. With AC line power this thing is basically unstoppable.

Love how easy it is to add a camera. do not like the process of changing wifi. But it's a solid camera.

Please DO NOT waste you time with this. You will NEVER get support when the cameras malfunction. I purchased these July 12, 2023. When I got the two cameras and the doorbell, I charged them and waited until July 15th for my son to come help me mount them outside in my yard. Everything seemed fine. Then it was time to charge them. I could get a step stool and reach the cameras, so I brought them inside. This was August 13th, around 4 weeks of use. I have them under the roof edge, protected from the sun and rain. For days now, I have attempted everything to charge them. NOTHING WORKS. Here are my main issues. First, I want to address my experience with Amazon customer service. The first person stated they would issue a return and I could exchange them. Great, just what I wanted. I felt maybe I got a bad batch of cameras. As she was starting the process, I was stating that I looked online for help. I seen a few forums talking about the issue but nothing resolved. She then asked if I would be willing to talk to Amazon technical support. Sure, I can do that. Maybe they have some experience with this issue. Talked with the next person, he runs through everything about what I have tried. I explain it says "offline" and even on the charger, it is not registering on my Google Home app. When charging my doorbell, it shows it as charging and how long until charged. Not with the cameras. I even removed them from my home network, did a factory reset, and still they show up as 5 days of charge left and will not register as charging. At this point he says, "Let me call this number for Google and see if I can get someone on the phone to help us and I can see if I can get you transferred to them". Great! Maybe they have an easy fix so I don't have to send them back. A few minutes later, he gives an update about still being on hold. He does this a few times. Great communication, I loved him checking in with me. Another 10 minutes goes by and he gets back on the phone. Now I already told him, I used Google to find a customer support or technical support number for Nest products and Google couldn't tell me. You are not going to believe what GOOGLE told him. So he tells me that Google would not allow him to transfer or connect me on the call. I had to personally reach out to connect with them. This technical person said they would not be able to give any guidance to him, or offer suggestions to try and fix this. WOW! SO he said they gave him a way for me to connect with them. ( support dot google dot com backslash googlenest ) YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. I explained to the Amazon Support person that I have spent 2 days on this same website and can't connect to anyone. You answer the questions and it takes you to a forum and question section where someone with the same question has been getting feedback about. Let me tell you this: If you have issues like me where your camera is offline and won't connect to your home network, or you can't get it to charge, you won't find anything here. There is literally no connection to this in the options given. Now you can search on Google and it will take you to a few places, but it won't directly offer you this as an issue to attempt to resolve. So the Amazon Support person said he would transfer me back so I can get an exchange or a refund if I wanted it. Now another person takes my call. She reviews what is going on and asks me "What do you want now?" Um, an exchange on the product. She says she can't process an exchange or refund. My window of opportunity ended yesterday. No it did not. I watched it on my end and it says August 16th and that is today. I tried for days to try and get this figured out. I need to send this back so you can send me out a replacement. Again she says no. So I walked through the process on my computer while speaking to her. I then said, should I hit the submit button and take it to my local Kohl's? I want to exchange, not refund. She puts me on hold and comes back to say she can't exchange, just refund. She was able to find another way around it in the system. REALLY? So in the end, I am getting a refund that will take 2-3 weeks. Normally it goes onto my Amazon balance and I can order it again right away. Not this time! It goes to my credit card, who is not going to process that refund right away and sit on it for awhile. I asked why it can't be issued as a credit on my Amazon account and was not given a "solid" reason. So I hung up and called back. Next person explains "Due to the high value item, it goes back to the original payment method. We do not offer exchanges with high value items". Interesting. Now I know where I will not be buying any "high value" electronics from. I will find them locally and purchase in the store. This is highly unacceptable customer service. Now I will not be able to have cameras on my home until Thanksgiving break because I won't have anyone around me to install them. Everyone is leaving for school soon. I can't climb a ladder and use a drill or power tool to install them. As for the products, my doorbell is great. The cameras were nothing fancy and didn't really help me see people clearly. I wanted to have more than 30 seconds recording when someone was in my yard. It defaults back to 30 seconds and the settings show you can have it for 2 or 3 minutes. I also did that subscription thing, which I think is probably a waste of money. After a few weeks being installed, I constantly had my cameras show offline, then they would show online after a few hours. Not worth the price of these things. My neighbor has different cameras, so maybe I will just look for something else when I finally get a refund. Amazon, you really need to consider your return policy. I can send back $7 glasses and get an exchange right away. Even weeks later. But have an issue with a "high value" item and you are treated like someone who cried wolf. Google, you really need to have a way for someone to contact you.

Meeting all of my expectations and exceeding some in comparison with former popular brand we replaced. Install in my opinion was simple and well designed even for someone as marginally tech literate as I am. I find charging the cameras simple and highly efficient with the self contained batteries within the camera which you have to dismount from magnetic mount to charge. Magnetic mount extremely strong. Cameras have all performed well and like anything techy you have to play and poke around to learn more as to it many functions. Would have given a 5 start but have only had them installed for one month, May later edit and give 5 star if they continue to perform well.

We have tried multiple Ring cameras (floodlight, stick-up, and doorbell), Blink cameras, and Defender cameras, etc. and constantly struggled with connectivity issues during install. It took days to get the Ring cameras to connect after tinkering with our network settings. Which would be a nightmare for a non-technical user. The doorbell camera wouldn’t connect at all during install. Even after escalating to the most senior tech, Ring basically told us they couldn’t figure out the interference issue. The same installation issues occurred with the Blink camera out of the box. They were immediately returned and never used. We opted for Defender cameras which required no internet or Bluetooth connection. However, low video resolution and no remote access was the tradeoff. Overtime, the video quality degraded with the camera lasting 1 yr only. Enter Google to the chat! User set up was simple. It took 30 mins to mount and setup the camera outside. The design is sleek and feels like high quality. The video resolution is the best I have seen so far. Not to mention that the Google Home ecosystem has a WIFI Router that can be purchased if connectivity issues do occur. Also ensuring that the user does not need to reduce network security to connect the camera. The camera is compatible with WIFI 6. Why should a user reduce security to have security? This camera is a gem so far! Will help our family feel secure no matter where we are.

Spectacular. I'm a Google guy so it makes life much easier. I get the yearly subscription for 30 days of storage. For security I think it's worth it. Also I hard wired mine. (Put outlets right next to them) I also can stream my cameras on my big 85" TV with the Google streamer stick. I'm extremely impressed.

I was a bit hesitant to purchase these after reading some reviews about connectivity issues with the Google Home app, but I’m glad I went for it. Following some helpful advice from other users, I connected them to my 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network, and the setup was incredibly fast and smooth—no issues at all. I installed one in the front yard and another facing the garage. Both work flawlessly. The night vision is surprisingly sharp, providing a very clear picture even in total darkness. One of the biggest perks is that the Nest Cam features are included with a Google One subscription. If you are already in the Google ecosystem, these are a no-brainer. Highly recommended for a simple and reliable home security upgrade!

Cumplen 100% las expectativas, tienen un excelente ángulo de visión, son muy certeras al mandar notificaciones.

The Nest Cam is the best cameras we have. The clarity is very good, and the set up was very easy. I highly recommend this camera

Works great as I don’t want to run power to this location

La mejor calidad . La versión de cámaras anterior , si perdías corriente , necesitabas de un no break para que la cámara siguiera grabando, ahora no lo necesitas , el cable para instalación final lo venden por separado, me parece por definir el largo que necesitas , si o si compra el cable original Se usan por plan anual , usa las cámaras que necesites en el mismo wifi para pagar solo un plan anual Ayuda muchísimo poder ver hasta 60 días atrás y ahora con el ( battery cam ) ya no me preocupo por perder electricidad , solo basta tener tu wifi con un back up

Good product turn though. delivered on time but not suitable if you need something freestanding. Easy to return though.
