The new Google Nest Cam lineup. <\/p>\n

<\/span> Google <\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Google on Thursday unveiled<\/a> several new security cameras that are part of its Nest smart home lineup. There’s a new video doorbell, a floodlight camera to help you monitor your driveway or a dark side of your home, and two new Nest Cams — one that’s battery-powered and designed for use anywhere — and another that’s designed to monitor inside your home. <\/p>\n

In addition to new hardware, Google<\/a> is also making some of the features that used to be behind a Nest Aware monthly subscription free. You can still sign up for Google’s Nest Aware service to add 30-day event history, the ability to create and share clips, and turns your smart displays and speakers into listening devices that act as a makeshift home security system. <\/p>\n

The new cameras discard the Nest app and instead will be managed entirely from the Google Home app. This is a transition that Google has been making with several of its products, including Nest Wi-Fi, for the last few years. Eventually, all of Google’s connected or smart home products will be managed directly through the Google Home app. <\/p>\n

Let’s break down what’s new, what’s included, and what you’ll have to pay for below. <\/p>\n
