Pros and cons

According to our IP camera expert
  • Save footage in the cloud and watch it later with Nest Aware (30-day free trial). You can view the last 3 hours for free via the Nest app.
  • The camera has facial recognition and will send a notification when it detects an unknown person.
  • With the Supersight function, the camera automatically follows suspicious persons.
  • You need a good WiFi signal where you're installing the camera. You can create a strong WiFi network near your camera with a WiFi extender.
  • Google Nest Aware is only available separately as a subscription from 5 euros per month.
  • Due to the size of the connector, you need an outdoor socket or you'll have to drill a hole in the wall.

Gambled and ..... won.

  • Perfect picture and sound
  • nice design
  • Listen and speak live
  • Hugely thick USB plug

On December 30, I already posted a review about this camera here. I bought it for the backyard and my conclusion was that this camera is perfect for the backyard, but not suitable for the front of my house.
The camera is equipped with a 22 mm thick USB plug. Since I (and most of me) don't have access to a socket at the front of the house, it takes quite a bit of effort to lead that thick plug through a window frame or wall. If you wanted to drill a hole that big.....
So I really didn't intend to and with that the expansion of my Nest cameras came to an end.
Or not?

It wouldn't let go and the only option I could imagine was to cut the cable, drill a small hole, feed the cable through and reassemble it.
With a camera of €199.00, that is a very expensive experiment...
So I first bought a short USB extension cable, cut it and put it back together and connected the camera to it.
And guess what.....the camera worked like a charm!

So then I took the gamble.
Cut the wire 20 cm from the plug. Drilled a small hole through the door frame and threaded the wire inside. Then the mounting plate of the camera is screwed tightly onto the cable on the frame and the cam is attached. This makes the cable sit tight under the foot and is therefore much less easy to sabotage.

The cable consists of four wires:
A red and black wire for the power supply and a white and green wire for the data (the nest cam only uses the power wires and not those for the data). Put the wires back together, each wrapped with a piece of aluminum foil and then taped around with insulating tape.
Plug in the socket inside the house and a super working outdoor cam in the front of my house!!

In the photos the confirmation of the camera and the quality of the image.

Gambled and won!

This Nest Cam Outdoor will become an option for many more people in this way!
Please note: I did this at my own risk and this method also voids the warranty on this product!! This option is therefore entirely at your own expense and risk!!
But successful for me! :-)

Super camera for the garden; not for the front door...

  • Good image quality
  • Beautiful Design
  • Great sound quality
  • An outdoor socket is a prerequisite for installation

I already owned two Nest Cams for indoor use. They liked it very much! It is very easy to install and the images are super sharp. In addition, the cam also looks nice (=personal) and that is also very important to me at home.
Through the app I always have an overview of my house, belongings and my cats. Really a top product!

I had previously taken out a subscription with Nest for these Nest Cams. That subscription is necessary to be able to use all functions of the camera, such as reviewing the images, recording clips and setting security zones.
After a subscription for the first product (€ 10.00 p/m) you will receive a 50% discount on the subscription price for every product you add afterwards (so € 5.00 per extra product). Quite pricey, but then you also get something....

I've been looking forward to an outdoor version of the Nest Cam for a long time.
I wanted a cam in my backyard and at the front door. Surely it is better to catch someone who wants evil before he/she is already in your house.
And when that cam finally launched, I was happy but also quite disappointed!

Nest had decided to design a camera that has the cable at the bottom of the camera (and is therefore quite easy to cut) and has also provided that cable with a MEGA thick (water-resistant) USB plug of 20 mm to connect.

When installing the Outdoor Cam, Nest assumes that you have a socket on the outside of your house and legitimizes (on request) the cable at the bottom of the cam by stating that the person who wants to sabotage that cable will case is on cam .... That is straight talk which is crooked.

In my opinion, the outdoor cam is therefore primarily designed for the American market and not for the European/Dutch market. In the suburbs there are mainly wooden houses where it is easier to run the cable inside.
Here in the Netherlands you usually don't have a socket at the front of your house and you therefore have to drill a 22mm (!) hole through your wall to be able to connect things indoors.
And so I'm not going to do that.

Finally bought a Nest Cam Outdoor at Coolblue for my backyard. I have a socket there so that I can connect the cam outdoors and (indeed) before someone is at the cam and would want to sabotage it, I already have a message and he / she is already on recorded video.

The installation took me about an hour. Registering the Outdoor Cam on the previously installed Nest app was done in 5 minutes. Egg.
You do that at home before you go outside with the cam.
Once in the garden it becomes a "thing".
First of all, you have to determine the location where you are going to hang the Outdoor Cam and there must therefore be a good WiFi range and there must be a socket nearby. The latter is not really a challenge, because you get all together 7.5 meters of cable!
Make sure that your WiFi range is sufficient outside, otherwise it really makes no sense! Then it just won't do it. It is wise to check this in advance before ordering!

With the Nest app on my iPhone in one hand and the Outdoor Cam in the other, I looked for the best location. Nest advises to hang the cam between 2 and 3 meters high and who am I to argue with that...
After determining the location, drilled two holes to screw the supplied metal plate against the wall. The magnetic holder for the cam fits there, which is immediately wall-mounted. You can then attach and aim the Outdoor Cam there. And fixed is really fixed!. The cam is hanging!
Then neatly fix the wire along the door frame with the supplied clips.
Nest really supplies everything you need to install the Outdoor Cam. Top!

Overall, I'm very pleased with this addition to the Nest range. An Outdoor Cam that looks neat with a perfect picture and sound.
But for the backyard.

In the images accompanying this review you can see my installation of the Outdoor Cam on the outside wall of my garden and the quality of its image. I am satisfied!

I would have liked to order a second Nest Outdoor Cam for my front door, but unfortunately I don't see any options for installing it there due to the size of the USB plug.

In my eyes a huge miss from Nest.

Anyone have a tip?

The best integration between software and camera in 1 produc

  • Daytime image quality
  • Strong WiFi range
  • Software makes camera smart
  • Few camera setting options

Accustomed to the razor-sharp images of my Avtech and Axis cameras indoors and outdoors, I was forced to switch to a WiFi camera for my backyard. Unfortunately, there are few high-end WiFi cameras, so I started my search rather sceptically.

After many weeks of reading reviews and watching YouTube videos, I chose the Nest IQ Outdoor. I compared these with the Arlo Pro 2, various Ring cameras and the 'regular' Nest Outdoor.

The camera hangs in the back of the garden on the roof of the garden house and has a view of the entire rear facade (3 floors).

Why chose this camera?
- The design is sleek, the materials are sturdy and of high quality
- WiFi reception is stronger than competitors
- Cabling is kept simple and can be completely concealed
- Sound recordings are clear and crisp even with wind noise
- Software is extremely easy to use
- Nest Aware makes this camera a powerhouse, strong cloud solution that records and plays all images and sound smoothly 24/7.
- Image quality is razor-sharp during the day, even with high contrasts (sun/shadow/backlight) the image remains easy to read.
- Night vision beyond expectations and reaches at least 15 meters in complete darkness
- The large viewing angle is a very big advantage
- The camera runs stable, no reboots or hangs
- Only 2 Mbps upload required for good quality images
- Software installation is step by step and very easy. Camera installation is easy to do even with 2 left hands.

There are also disadvantages with every product and that also applies to the Nest IQ Outdoor. His strengths are also points that I run into a bit in practice. This is because I compare this camera to the higher segments such as Avtech and Axis. Maybe I shouldn't either. These points are certainly not problematic.

- Software is user-friendly but also limited, so I can't completely adjust the camera to my liking. For example, I want to be able to make more settings to the Infrared/night options and to be able to adjust the frames per second.
- Although the lens falls slightly inside the housing, raindrops still appear due to the lack of a small 'roof'. I also suffer more from cobwebs than from my Avtech/Axis cameras. To avoid this, point the camera slightly downwards.
- Nest is a closed system, so I am forced to use the Nest software to see the camera.
- Image quality at night is better than expected, but less sharp than my other cameras. It is enough. There are currently no better options in the Wifi segment around that price, so I accept that.
- Higher price compared to its direct competitors is justified. However, relatively speaking, the price is too high compared to wired cameras that provide a sharp view of up to 50 meters at night.

Conclusion
The best camera and software in this price segment. I am very happy with it and it holds its own between my Avtech and Axis cameras. That says enough for me.
Nest Aware is a no-brainer for those few euros a year, just do it.
