About Google Nest Cam (Wired) - 2nd Generation - Snow
Overall Feedback:
74% positive
92% found the installation easy
I found the bullet-surveillance cameras to be very fast and easy to set up and move around. Setting up the online account was simple and anyone can do it.
It takes only 2-3 minutes to install and set up this camera, making it the easiest to use.
I found the installation process of this surveillance camera to be easy and user-friendly, both physically and in terms of software connection to Wi-Fi AP/router.
77% were satisfied with the remote accessibility, but 23% weren't
remotely viewing the camera works okay, but sometimes it freezes and requires resetting the app.
I posted a request to the help-desk for info on configuring audio routing on the monitoring PC, but it's been 2 weeks and there's no reply.
I can log in remotely and view current activity, but won't receive alerts or have access to recorded footage unless I happen to be viewing when the intruder is present.
Remote access sometimes shows camera not connected or could not reach Nest.
81% highlighted the field of view, while 19% were dissatisfied
With almost a fisheye lens, the camera provides a wide field of view. I can monitor the front door and hallway from one spot.
The camera has a wide field of view, allowing me to see the entire room.
I found that the field of view of this camera is much larger than the wemoNetCam, allowing me to cover the area of my home where I previously needed two wemoNetCams due to their narrow view.
The camera cannot read license plates unless they are 1 foot away and stationary for a few seconds.
84% liked the resolution clarity, but 16% didn't
With the 1080 resolution, I feel like I am really present in that location, which has changed my perspective on treating IP Cam as a tool for surveillance and security purpose.
The picture quality is impressive at both 1080 and 720, and I only notice the difference when zooming.
The camera has outstanding clarity during night and day hours, even when set on 720 resolution.
The camera captures clear and detailed footage with 1080p HD resolution, allowing me to monitor my home with sharp clarity.

77% appreciated the integration with other devices
I love how I can integrate with the Nest Aware feature to enable and disable the cameras since I use all of the Nest products.
80% highlighted the storage capacity, while 20% remained dissatisfied
I uploaded 5.45GB over a 24hr period with moderate movement, indicating that the camera has a good storage capacity.
After 20 days, I exceeded my data upload limit by 60 mb.
83% appreciated the night vision capability, but 17% raised concerns
The Night Vision feature has many flaws, as it only captures the camera's own glow in case of glare from a glass shelving unit or window.
When I mount the camera close to a window, the night vision becomes useless.
80% liked the motion detection accuracy, but 20% didn't
The motion detection generates many false triggering events and is quite poor.
Motion detection has a delay and is poor, resulting in missed snapshots of the person who made the motion. False motion detection alerts are also present.
