Description

Your first line of defence.
Nest Cam IQ is a powerhouse of brains and brawn. Weatherproof. Tamper-resistant.
And seriously sharp. Because you want to know about a break-in before it happens.

Insight for outside.
Good insight starts with incredible sight. Nest Cam IQ can detect a person up to 15 metres (50 feet) away, then alert you with a photo of who’s there.
Vision so visionary that we call it Supersight.
What do you get when you combine a 4K sensor with HDR and intelligent imaging? Supersight. It’s 1080p HD with superpowers.
Close-up tracking view
Cut to the chase. If Nest Cam IQ sees a person, special algorithms automatically zoom in and follow the action in the app.
12x digital zoom and enhance
Keep a close eye on somewhere specific. With a 4K sensor, it can zoom in up to 12x and enhance for a crisp picture.
Daytime HDR
Nest Cam IQ combines multiple 4K images to even out challenging lighting conditions. So details won’t disappear or be lost in the shadows.


You can install Nest Cam IQ Outdoor yourself. Just drill a hole in your wall and plug it into an indoor socket. To use an outdoor socket, you’ll need the weatherproof power adapter for Nest Cam IQ Outdoor. (Sold separately)
Install it yourself. Or call a Nest Pro.
If you need any help, a Nest Pro is ready and waiting.
