Video Quality: Daytime pictures are as fairly sharp and clear, though not as much as the better models, which means you can see most but not all of the details and subtle patterns in the scene. At nighttime, the video is below par: not very viewable, and not as bright or clear as the better models.
Data security: This model has very good security. It has many of the important protections for your recordings and personal data.
Data privacy: Google Nest offers only a mediocre level of control and transparency over your data. They are not doing as good a job as others are with regard to collecting only necessary data, giving you control over its use, and limiting how your data is shared or sold.
Response time: This model sends its alerts to its app within 6.4 seconds on average, which is moderately fast, though not as fast as others, which means your ability to respond may be a bit delayed.
Smart features: It works with smart-home systems such as, and Google Assistant.
