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

Sleek, sturdy construction, Accurate motion detection, Easy-to-use app

I never really considered a security system for my apartment (we don't lock our doors in Canada), but new Wi-Fi connected products like Nest Cam make the experience of owning and setting up cameras at home much more accessible than ever before. While ther...
1080p video is a slight but welcome upgrade from Dropcam's 720p video, The device is small and sleek, capable of hiding in the most discreet corners of your home, Nest Cam acts as a pseudo-hub for other smart home products through Nest Weave

Very easy setup. Sharp image detail. Excellent digital zoom. Works with other Nest devices.
Pricey cloud storage. Limited notification capabilities. Runs hot
The Nest Cam is a dual-band Wi-Fi surveillance camera that offers crisp 1080p video, motion and sound detection, and integration with other Nest devices. It's a snap to install, but you have to pay to view recorded video...

Given that Nest Cam and Dropcam Pro are pretty similar, it doesn't make a lot of sense for existing users to replace their Pro. But, budding DIYers searching for a high-res live streaming camera really can't beat Nest Cam...
AI detection works well, Multi-camera subscription is well-priced, Good quality video and audio with minimal lag
Expensive, Single camera subscription is pricey
Overall, though, we do like the indoor Nest Cam. It's nicely made, and works very well. Object and facial recognition is superb, it's very responsive and, for setups involving multiple cameras, the Nest Aware subscription service is good value for money.W...
