GoogleNest Security Cam (Wired) - 2nd Generation - Linen, 1080p, Motion Only

Definitely an improvement from the 1st generation indoor camera series.Better image quality and sound.The only thing I don’t like is that you can only use it in the Google Home app and not the Nest app (which is advertised and I was aware of).

Just a heads up you only get "event" view for free with nest cameras, but for $8 that changes across all nest cameras. This camera is extremely easy to set up, Google Home is a wonderful app that hasn't caused any issues for us, the design is nice and build quality feels solid. Connection to the camera is the best we've experienced (many cameras use 2.4ghz for streaming), which is awful. This has run at 99.9% consistentcy and even with that missing percent it was due to the phone not connecting, not the camera itself shutting off. We returned two Chinese cameras and got this camera, which was significantly more expensive but worth the investment. Night vision is excellent and there are plenty of other features within the app. Oh, and the AI it uses is incredible, you can record in your home and have it only recognize a pet or individual person instead of it notifying you of everything it sees. Talking through it also works perfectly. Little to no delay on streaming. 5 stars.

One of the best to use, setup, find the quality picture and video view. Just install anywhere close to electric outlet and setup in your google account. It has very good range to see the Wi-Fi and connected easily. A little bit price but overall is very good.

Ever wanted to call your dog? Now you can! This camera is a game-changer. Setup was a breeze, it arrived quickly, and the quality is top-notch. The video is super clear, and the sound? Incredible.You know how when you FaceTime your dog on a family member’s phone, they get excited for a second and then totally ignore you? Not with this camera! There’s something about the sound that grabs their attention. My pets—both dogs and cats—actually come to the camera when I call. My dog even brings a toy, and my cats hilariously start searching the house for me!It’s perfect for checking in, making sure everyone’s okay, and even easing my elderly dog’s separation anxiety. The only thing missing is a treat dispenser! Plus, it records motion-triggered clips that are saved for up to three hours and automatically deletes them—no subscription required.If you want a fun and easy way to stay connected with your pets, or check in on things at home I highly recommend this camera. It’s like FaceTime, but better—for you and your furry friends!

I used to have a Dropcam Pro back when Nest bought Dropcam. Then, of course, Google ended up buying Nest later. I had moved to Eufy, and Eufy had some disastrous privacy issues leading me to switch back to what I know the best, Nest..err, Google.I got it hoping it would work well with Alexa (Amazon Echo Dot) to notify me of person alerts, etc, as Google had finally created an Alexa Skill. Unfortunately, that was not the case. The Alexa skill is limited, and can only send out alerts if unrecognized motion is detected. If the camera detects a person, even if not a familiar face, it will not notify Amazon/Alexa. This was not at all what I expected. The only way around this would be to turn off person detection and use motion detection, but that would be a considerable downgrade, and I paid a lot for this camera to get what it offers.I won't be the first to say this, but if you are used to the Nest app, do not expect the same experience using the Google Home app. Google Home app is much worse, even on Android. I'm not too fond of it, and they need to do more updates and overall UI changes for it to be usable.

We wanted another outside camera but we did not have any electrical outlets in the area. So, we bought this and placed it inside the window pointed outside and it is adding the security we wanted. A couple of things to know. You will not get the outside sound using it this way so we muted the sound. It worked great during the day but when it got dark and the camera mode switched to night vision we could only see the camera reflection. We disable the night vision and it works great and we have more than enough light outside to see everything.
