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 was worried after reading all the poor reviews that setup would be difficult and the product would not be up to standards. That is not the case. The setup was easy. It did take longer than 60 seconds, but it wasnt a frustratingly long process. Certainly less than 5 minutes to do. We setup the camera and tested it out. The microphone works well- you cannot hear the room while you talk to it and sometimes you have to exit the talk part of the app and come back into it to work, but it works fine. The night vision is clear and automatically shifts with lighting conditions. The motion alerts have worked so far. I am curious about the once per 30 minutes as another reviewer posted about, we have yet to test how frequently we can get alerts. All in all, we are pleased with the Nest Cam.

For 11-year-old granddaughter who uses oxygen at night and a feeding tube. She can be in her own bedroom, and mom can hear and see her with camera. They even paired it with Alexis for more options.

Id buy 100 of these if I could afford it. Its that simple. Ive spent twice the amount on multiple camera systems. At this point I would only buy these. Their wi-fi range is limited, especially in areas with weak wifi connectivity or interfering structures. This fails to connect about 25 feet sooner than my iPhone 5s. Once these cameras are less expensive, I imagine theyll increase in popularity. Its rare, in my experience, for a device like this to work so well across all functions.

Can’t beat this product it’s the bomb. Works well for me day or night.

Our nest cam was perfect for the playroom. Love that it has motion detection and audio. We can chime in when we need our kids instead of walking all the way in there or yelling lol.

I have 4 now and they work great

Excellent product! I bought these to keep an eye on the dogs, but have also found it useful to check in on my kids here and there. Very easy to setup. The app that’s tied to this product is very user friendly. I was able to also connect my doorbell and outdoor nest to the same app, so everything is in one location. The notifications of movement, dog barks, etc are very useful. I love being able to talk back to the camera (a though the voice they hear is light). For safety, checking in and keeping an eye on things at home, this is a fantastic product.

Excellent features, but service drops make it difficult to rely on. We were looking for alternatives to other baby monitors since we live in a condo with lots of wireless activity. A lot of monitors do not have the signal strength to compete with all the other connections, so we thought trying to utilize a drop cam that makes use of our Wi-Fi instead of competing against it would be a good option. It worked great at first, but we noticed while testing it during the day that the nest service itself would cut out unexpectedly. The camera image is sent to Nests online servers and then back to your phone, its not a direct connection. When this happens we would have to restart the app and login again. The app does not try to reestablish connection on its own or make any type of warning noise when the connection is lost. It is for this reason that we could not rely on it to work throughout the night as a baby monitor. I think this service has a lot of potential, but not if the service cuts out unexpectedly. I will keep an eye on reviews for Nest in the future and hope some of these issues are addressed.

I really like this camera and the app interface on the phone. I get clear picture, and I can check the house at a glance. The sound is a bit quiet, and thats a bummer when I get a notification of a sound detected in the house and I cant hear it. I do like that it differentiates between sounds and motion detected. The app only stores video for free for about a month, and afterward its subscription based. But all in all its a great little camera.

Purchased 3 Nest cam bundle to monitor activity within our primary residence while we are away. The set up, picture quality, and app are great! It does the job. The only draw back is the monthly subscription for history which is done per camera. This ads up and would be nice if there was a subscription for a network of cameras, not for each individual camera. For our needs one camera will not do and having multiple subscriptions for monitoring one residence/business does not make financial sense.
