This Google Nest Indoor Camera Is Currently 35% Off.
The second-generation Google Nest Cam (wired, indoor) is on sale on Woot for $64.99, down from the usual $99.99—the lowest price yet, according to price-tracking sites . Amazon, by comparison, is still selling the same camera for $99.99. The sale is expected to last for the next 10 days or while supplies last. Shipping is free for Prime subscribers , and shipping is a $6 charge for non-Prime customers. The camera integrates seamlessly with Google’s smart home system, and if you have a Nest Hub, you can ask Google Assistant to display a live feed on the screen. If you already have Google Assistant or Google Home devices in your home, this is one of the easiest indoor security cameras to use.
PCMag gave the Nest Cam an ” Excellent ” rating , praising its high video quality and intelligent alerts. The camera records video in 1080p with HDR, providing clear images during the day and better contrast in low-light conditions, while infrared night vision automatically turns on after dark. The 135-degree viewing angle is wide enough for most living rooms, hallways, nurseries, or playrooms, so you don’t need to carefully aim the camera or buy a second one for primary viewing. More importantly, the camera can distinguish between people, animals, and vehicles, so you’re less likely to get alerts every time your pet enters its field of view.
However, without the Google Home Premium plan, you’ll only have access to the previous three hours of recorded event history. Facial recognition, one of the camera’s most useful features, is also only available by subscription. Plans start at $10 per month or $100 per year for 30 days of event history, with a more expensive plan extending this to 60 days for $20 per month. The camera also won’t work with every smart home system—it doesn’t support Alexa, Apple HomeKit, or IFTTT, so it’s best suited for families already using the Google ecosystem. However, if that’s your case, the Nest Cam remains one of the most advanced home security cameras available, and this discount makes it a much more compelling recommendation than at full price.
