Like Dropcam Pro
Nest Cam is still just a webcam at heart. While it does offer security features like opt-in motion and sound alerts
They aren't especially useful since you can only receive one notification every 30 minutes
Good quality 1080P video, Simple to setup, Powerful Night Vision, Excellent App design easy to use, Brilliant stand design, Web-based as well as app access
Some features need subscription, Speaker not very powerful, Not a cheap option, Nest Cam IQ has more features, No built-in battery
There are more powerful, or less expensive, indoor smart cameras to be had, but few tick as many boxes as the Nest Cam Indoor – certainly without pushing even further on the price scale. For one thing it's compact and good looking, far from the norm in th...
Excellent 1080p video quality, Easy setup, Can sync with Nest home heating
Expensive subscription plans
Nest Cam Indoor has a mostly painless setup process, a helpful mobile app and a reliable WiFi connection. It has excellent daytime video quality but if you want to store video for longer than 24 hours it's going to cost you...
Easy to use, Clear video, Unlimited range, Remote zoom,
Transmission lags, High-speed Internet needed

Sleek, sturdy construction, Accurate motion detection, Easy-to-use app
Nest Aware subscription required to access most security features, Sends alerts only once every 30 minutes, Weak sound detection
Nest Cam doesn't improve much on the Dropcam Pro, but it doesn't need to. It's an excellent camera if your serious about home security...
