Google Nest Cam Indoor - 1st Generation - Wired Indoor Camera - Control with Your Phone and Get Mobile Alerts - Surveillance Camera with 24/7 Live Video and Night Vision

I purchased the camera to be able to make sure the dog sitter arrives. Since then, we have put our house up for sale and I have been able to check in during the open houses which is a benefit I wasnt anticipating. Hearing conversation isnt terribly clear but that isnt a problem for me. It was very easy to set up and even though we have spotty wifi due to living up in the hills, it has worked quite well. I am very satisfied with this product and would recommend it!

Cons: audio is awful - you can barely hear a thing especially if the baby isnt screaming. Theres a few second delay in the audio (and most likely video). Nest app randomly turns off sometimes. You cant use your phone and look at best app at same time. The camera gets pretty hot since its plugged in unlike baby monitors. If you lose internet connection, your monitor wont work. No remote control function to move or zoom lens like baby monitors. The cord thing that plugs into the camera is so flimsy its always disconnecting to power randomly and doesnt stay plugged in if you touch it or move it slightly. Pros: you can watch from your phone whenever and wherever you are. You can use it for something else (security camera) once your baby grows and you dont need a monitor anymore. The wide angle lens gives you a shot of the entire room. Quality of picture very sharp at daylight but not at night. You can speak into the camera from your phone and the person can hear you through the camera. I use this function a lot when Im trying to get my husband to wake up in the morning while Im downstairs getting ready.

What is better than having family around with ulterior motives and a desire to push the ex wife out of the picture? Ai! Hi, Im a single mom. My ex and how family, including my adoptive family, have ask made the last 5 years of my life hell. But now, with nest IQ indoor cameras, I have proof of my valuable parenting techniques in conjunction with hearsay proof of whats actually happening. I HIGHLY trust and reccomend these little guys to minitor and listen in on your loved ones. I have nothing to hide, and anything in my home will/can be used in court. Add a Google drive and drop box, external hardrives etc and your set to go. So sit back. Relax. And KNOW Ai has your back.

I already owned 2 Nest thermostats and 4 Nest protects when I purchased this Nest cam. The camera itself seems to be very good quality. The set up was a breeze and camera was operational in just a couple of minutes. The reason for the 1 star review is that if you dont subscribe to their Nest aware that starts at $10 a month you will have to stare at a banner ad on all of your devices that you have the Nest app installed on nagging you to subscribe to it. I spent 30 minutes on the phone with Nest support this morning and was even transferred to a senior level tech who told me the only way to get rid of the banner ad was to subscribe to Nest aware. Guess what? I figured out another way to get rid of the banner ad. I am boxing it up and returning it! Nest should be ashamed to subject customers who have spent good money on their products to this. I am still within my 30 days on my other items I may just box it all up and go with a different brand.

The Nest 3-pack arrived quickly and in good condition from the seller. We had already owned a single Nest camera and like the ease of setting up the additional cameras within the same system. The image and sound quality are both fine for keeping an eye on our pets while were away from the house.

Me and my fiancé were super excited to purchase this for our home. We were really disappointed after using it a month & returned it. The picture quality wasn’t nearly as good as we thought it would and also the picture was delayed as well as the sound by a few seconds. I love all my best products but this one we had to return : (

The Drop-Cam as updates and rebranded by Nest. Works as advertised. Easy to install, easy to use. Long-term storage plans are a subscription expense but well worth the money. Control from iOS apps is terrific, notifications are reliable and timely. I recently sold my house and am living in an apartment while my new house is being completed. I simply click the Away button when I leave in the morning and then clock Home when I return. This does everything you need.

I highly recommend this camera for several reasons. It has adjustable pixel count to accommodate internet connection via satellite up to the high speeds connection some people have access to. It has off site recording available at different rates or the choice to not use off site. It has magnetic base or hard wired base making it easier to find a spot to install. It still can be removed from the hard wired base and moved. It covers a large area allowing you to use one camera where some brands would require 2 or more. It is easy to install with out professional help. The picture is very clear and you can enlarge hard to see spots. The indicator light can be turned off to not call attention to its location. It is completely compatible with so many brands of smart phones not just Apple products. The voice availability makes it perfect to talk to pets or kids with the push of a button. Although I am not using the automatic away feature, it is nice to know it is available. I am sure when I submit this I will think of several other reasons that I forgot to mention.

I really like the camera, it is clear and works good, but I cannot get the app to work correctly. It will not turn the camera on while we are gone, like we have it set....I have to remember to do it...

I LOVE this and regret not getting the 3-pack. Now that I can see the front room (I bought mine to use as a doggie cam), I want to have them in other major rooms as well. It doubles as a security camera, since it is directed at the front door, too. I love that you can talk through it- I have caught my dog getting into her food & told her no, she stopped immediately.
