What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the camera for excellent video clarity in day and night conditions, effortless setup, and strong magnetic mounting that works indoors and outdoors.

Terrible product that does not work
Would Not RecommendI have owned four google nest cameras for the past two years, and they have been an absolute disaster. They randomly shut off and cannot be remotely turned back on. I have to get a ladder, go outside, and manually cycle the power. Of my four cameras, two are usually offline at any given time. The event detection algorithm is awful. 24/7 history is a paid feature, and automatic event detection routinely misses critical events. If you didn't pay for 24/7, you're out of luck. Event missed. ...

Buyer Beware
Would Not RecommendThe first camera that Lowes sent me had been opened. The seal was broken. The camera did not work. I paid Lowes the price for a brand new unused item and they did this. Sent me a used and broken item. I sent Lowes an email about this and never received a reply.

No more Google products
Would Not RecommendI had two battery-operated cameras, and eventually, they would no longer charge. Additionally, I had perfectly functioning smoke detectors, but Google decided to support no longer the product, which forced me into buying new smoke detectors (my mistake). Then, Google decided to stop supporting my perfectly operating generation 1 and 2 thermostats, so I could no longer use the app to control my thermostats. I will no longer be buying any Google products.
