Review: Easy to install and has great field of view, image quality and personalizations - I have actually purchased 5 of these to replace an Arlo hub and cameras which were increasingly buggy and kept dropping WiFi. I have had two indoor wired Nest cameras for a few years now and have been using the 5 new battery powered indoor/outdoor cameras for several weeks. All of these cameras are managed and installed through the Google Home app. Con: you are having to trust Google. Pros: it's made by Google, so every aspect of this works perfectly. Installation is as easy as scanning a QR code with your phone camera and pressing "Add Camera". Disable your VPN for this if you are using one. Mounting is very simple and secure. You will need a 3/32" drill bit and a Phillips head screwdriver bit as well as a cordless drill. These feel rock solid and there is no wobble. Also, it has been very windy and rainy for several days and the cameras are fine. Temperatures have been as low as 34F, again no problems. Have not had >100F weather since it's late Fall. The field of view and image quality is superb. No spherical or chromatic aberration to speak of. In overcast daylight, it was possible to read a license plate from about 15-30 feet away as a freeze frame from the video. The cameras can be individually personalized to notify you (or not) of non-specific motion, or any combination of people, animals or vehicles. The system can also be set to only operate if you leave home through inherent geo-fencing. Comparing this to Arlo, the system is completely stable (which Arlo is not: it's link to a WiFi router only 5 feet away can be tenuous) and the image quality of the cameras is superior in every way. Of note, the Arlo cameras are half the size and can be camouflaged with 3rd party rubber covers in a variety of colors. The Nest cameras are big and white and more conspicuous.
Review: Highly recommended. - A bit frustrating to get these cameras hooked up to the Wi-Fi and added to the Google home app, but once all that is accomplished, they work great. I have only noticed a few recordings triggered in error in my living room, which appears to be triggered by shadows on a wall rather than movement. I have half of these cameras hooked up outside, and I do not appear to be affected by the weather at all. I would just recommend you brush spiders off them frequently, as bugs resting on the camera lens can be a nuisance. I highly recommend this purchase!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are there plans to make the Google Home app function as well as the Nest app?**
A: Hi there! We're continually making improvements to all our products and services, including the Home app. You can help us along the way by sharing your feedback on any of our Google Nest products using the Home app. You can simply use Google Assistant to share your feedback with us. Just say "Ok Google" or "Hey Google," then: “Send feedback”. Your audio feedback will be transcribed and sent to the Google Nest team. For a detailed guide on how you can send your feedback back to us, check out this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7071494

**Q: Are the lights replaceable once they burn out?**
A: Hi there! Nest Cam with Floodlight comes with reliable but non-replaceable LED lights that are designed for a 5-year lifetime, assuming the light is on from dusk to dawn every night. For detailed information on Nest Cam with Floodlight specifications, we recommend visiting this page on our Help Center: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/9259110

**Q: can it be hook up to a pc**
A: The new Nest cameras are exclusive to the home app. We’re aware that longtime Nest users enjoy having the option to view their Nest camera feeds from the web using a laptop or PC, and we are working on adding this experience. However, our priority with this launch was building a complete experience for our new cameras and doorbell in the Google Home app.

**Q: Cuánto dura la batería?**
A: No dura mucho en verdad no la recomiendo

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for the money! Very easy to mount.
*by L***A on July 14, 2026*

This camera is really nice and clear in terms of footage, super easy to mount, and very simple to set up. The battery life has yet to be seen, but I’m hoping it last for a few months before having to charge it. For $129, I think the price is right for this little home security system.
