The editors didn't like
Overall cost is too high
Facial recognition needs to be more accurate
You still have to pay at least $10 per month for continuous cloud video storage. The camera's price doesn't quite match up with the features added
Excellent audio quality, Very good video quality, Intelligent Familiar Face detection, Well-designed, intuitive software
No local storage, Key features, including video history, require cloud subscription
The Nest Cam IQ has very good day time image quality (it's pretty good at nighttime, too), excellent audio, and its software is one of our favorites among security cameras. However, it's expensive -- $100 more than previous Nest cameras, as well as our fa...
Very clear video with up to 12x digital zoom and HDR. Very short delay for live streaming. Night vision has good range and contrast, Threemicrophone array offers very clear audio. Delay is short for live streaming. Speaker facing backward, but seems plent
The camera is $300 and does very little without the minimum $10 monthly plan, Too many false positives, It bugs me there's no easy way to take a still photo, Sometimes a little slow to respond. Tracking smaller objects is iffy
The Nest Cam IQ is light years ahead of every other product on the market when it comes to fancy smart features like facial recognition and zoom control. Nest's app is also excellent thanks to features like animated notifications and reliable home/away as...
A 4K sensor allows up to 12x zoom with almost no loss in image quality, Facial recognition identifies and remembers family members, Smart audio alterts accurately distinguish between a human speaking and a dog barking
Twice the price of the original Nest Cam, Most of the advanced features require a Nest Aware subscription
With its facial recognition, smart audio alerts, and stellar image quality, the Nest Cam IQ improves significantly on the already estimable Nest Cam. But are those features worthy of such a jump in price, plus the the cost of the Nest Aware subscription y...
Abstract: The Nest Cam IQ is the latest product from Alphabet-owned smart home company Nest, an HD security camera with a 4K sensor it uses to do things like intelligently track faces and people at higher resolution. I've been testing the $299 Nest Cam IQ for a whi...

Excellent video quality, Zooming and enhance features really work, Facial recognition is fast and accurate, Polished setup and app experience
Camera is expensive, Nest Aware subscription required for most features, Not weatherproof
It almost goes without saying that this is the best camera Nest has created. For ease of setup, the simplicity of the app, and image quality it's hard to find another camera that can compete. Factor in the useful and accurate facial recognition, and the a...

Abstract: I've never understood the fascination with connected home cameras, such as Canary, the Nest Cam, and others. They've always been a gimmick in my experience: not reliable enough for a proper security system, not practical enough to be a baby monitor. But a...

Excellent face recognition and two-way audio, Sharp 1080p video, Motion and sound detection, Easy to install, Works with other smart home devices
Expensive, Many features require Nest Aware subscription
The Nest Cam IQ is a 1080p home surveillance camera that offers facial recognition, automatic zoom tracking, motion- and sound-triggered alerts, and interoperability with many other smart devices...
The Rayz Rally is a ultracompact speaker that plugs into the Lightning port on your iOS device, doesn't require batteries or charging, and plays without any setup or pairing required. It works well as a speakerphone and can play music or audio from videos
It's too expensive, it looks awkward attached to your phone, and its sound can't match small Bluetooth speakers at the same price or less
The Nest Cam IQ is a solid camera that costs a little too much to readily recommend to most home security DIYers...
Great video quality, smooth real-time viewing, field leading monitoring services available,
Very limited without a subscription
The Nest Cam Indoor is the best security camera for real-time viewing. If you're willing to pay for a subscription it is also one of the best overall cameras, slightly behind the Nest Cam IQ that offer advanced facial recognition...
