As a new homeowner, I can’t thank you enough for taking the time to do this comparison. Easily one of the most practical reviews I’ve seen in a while.
Glad it was helpful!
Great review, can't wait to see your video on ring pricing!
Bro your channel is amazing! keep em coming!
Thank you.
Awesome work! I plan on buying the Nest outdoor cams to complement my Doorbell. But it was still cool to see how it compares!
This is a great comparison because it speaks to field of view really well, If you don't need the super wide field of view, the Nest clearly shows more detail at distance, if you need the wider field of view the trade off becomes 2 nest cameras or 1 Ring camera but with reduced detail. I feel like often people go for the widest field of view even if they don't need it, but then you give up detail in the videos. The real downside for consumers is with most cameras operating off subscriptions for services, once you are invested in a brand, it's painful to switch brands because you are either locked into paying 2 subscriptions or replacing all your cameras.
Thank you for the comparison, I just ordered the nest products, overall seems to be the better, yet falling short of ideal, happy new year and god bless
Wow, as a Ring camera and alarm owner I think a 100% increase for the annual monitoring plan is ridiculous. Nest’s cool-off is also ridiculous and personally, I would not buy a camera without an alarm. Twice I’ve chased a couple of late-night car snoopers away from a neighbor’s car with my siren. All of the systems I’ve looked into have their issues. I haven’t found anything that will take me away from Ring, yet. Love your reviews!
Thanks.
It what I’ve been told is correct, those of us who already have subscriptions are grandfathered in until 2025.
Having a separate Ring camera when I’m already heavily invested into Nest is not really an option for me. Despite its flaws, the Nest is still adequate for my needs and I don’t need to change or add to my plan price. It would be hopefully resolved in future updates. Good thing I’m patient on future purchases after my initial three cameras; lessons learned. Thanks for sharing your review.
Soma applications may benefit from the high sensitivity of the Ring Pro. Installation at the second storey over a rear yard with minimal or no traffic would be ideal which is what I purchased mine for.
Thanks for sharing. 👍🏻
It's Not that the Ring floodlight (Light) is sensitive now. The separate light settings, light motion zones/distance set on minimum distance has been disabled even though the light distance setting is still on the app. They changed it so now the Light is 100% operated and triggered by the separate cameras motion zones. If the cameras motion zones sense motion and start recording video it now triggers the light on no matter how far away the motion is. The camera motion zones settings and separate light settings used to work independently and now they don't. The floodlight camera and lights used to work perfect and now it's a light show every single night. Disgusted with the change to the floodlight I bought and so are the neighbors. Thank you for the video.
Someone spoke with ring support and said the light issue was better with the pro camera. They said a manager upgrade them to the camera free of charge since they were complaining about the lights going off on all motion. Supposedly the 3D motion was supposed to help. Doesn’t look like it. Idk if I can keep my ring floodlight camera with this new lighting software update. Looks like I’ll be looking for a new floodlight.
I wonder if there’s a way to wire brighter lights into the units?
Great videos, I decided to with google nest for the whole home. We had so many problems with ring products over the years i wont buy them anymore. I hate the fact that you cant replace a light when they burn out on both of these and forced to buy a new light.
Do you have a video about how to make the Ring camera says “Hi you are being recorded”? Does Nest have that feature?
Great test. I'd really like to say that the nest would be my purchase due to the good audio/video quality, but the cool off delay is troublesome. The inability to control the lights on the live view is inconvenient. I'm hopeful Nest can address this
Is this were it tells you there is an event and then you can not look at the recording for 5-10 minutes? Yes, that is bad. The Nest app was better. I was shocked to see that my new Nest flood light had less and worse features then all my other Nest cams. You can not use your new Nest cam with your Nest app, what the heck were they thinking? 10 days of recordings and if it misses anything there is no way to save the video, even if you manage to find it? What the heck man!?
The Nest had terrible audio quality.
Thank you for very nice comparison. Do you have a resent comparison?
I have not tested it yet, but on my Nest floodlight if I go into More when in live view, there is an emergency option. Did they sneak a siren in?
I was having problems with my nest cam too...but somehow it got fixed after a couple weeks of use
Thanks!
hey LF, any updates on the wyze cam floodlights? i plan on getting one this week , i’m not the biggest fan of the v3 but for $100 and an additional v3 added it will be the perfect floodlight cam to cover my driveway . i have a long driveway so the 2 camera will cover both ends . it’s $100 so you can’t beat that . the v3 is a good camera for $35 but i noticed a lot of defects ; for example the delayed notifications, you get them about 15-20 seconds too late , false alerts , bad AI, . i know it’s only $35 but they have some things they can fix that will make this the best budget friendly camera on the market
I don't notice any difference in my older Ring Floodlight Camera as far as sensitivity. Only if the car or person gets pretty close does it trigger. sometimes my neighbor might trigger it which isn't that big of a deal. It was like this before. I set it to trigger when objects are closer, not sure if I can make the zone even smaller than it is but it's fine for me. I think the pro floodlight has better sound quality than the older one.
I'm currently subscribed to ring alarm and also have nest doorbell camera already subscribed to nest aware (using the nest app not Google nest). I want to add a camera floodlight to my backyard. Which would you recommend?
How do you control the floodlights on the nest? Will my wall switch work?
Did you set up the zone alert for the motion detection on the Nest Floodlight. In your video when you are toggling the motion detection on in the Google Home app at the very top is the motion alert field. You can customize the field you want to the motion to be decided l detected. I work for ADT and we have recently started selling the Google Nest Battery Doorbell. Setting a motion detection field really helps with the notifications
I usually don’t set motion zones during my testing so that I can gauge the max detection distance it has etc…nests person detection is pretty spot on anyways so motion zoning is not that important unless you want to prevent notifications from people walking in your sidewalk and cars passing by in your street.
6:25 how do you make the quad view of all the cameras? I'd love to see a video of you editing all the footage. What software and hardware do you use for editing? I such at editing videos. where did you learn?
I use Filmora and it has that option. It is a basic editor but it is pretty easy to learn.
Great review! I didn’t know ring changed there plans for alarm…………….I assume I don’t have alarm with them now and only video recording………bummer
You probably don't have the alarm if you don't have the alarm keypad.
I would like my WYZE camera's to have different alert tones
i wish there was one with ring camera and nest lights
good video!
The Nest looks way better in my opinion. Is there a way to manage a Nest Cam on Ring app? I have all ring devices like doorbell, etc but, planning on buying a Floodlight cam but, disappointed with Ring after your video. :)
Having a long cool off and no siren are what drove me to Ring
what's the camera with the best microphone?
It's kinda cool how they don't include memory card options so you can, you know, watch what your camera (that you paid for, power and maintain, pay internet for) records. Why is it ok for them to insert themselves between you and your pictures/video and charge a bunch of money. If their AI detection and service was good enough people would pay for it. The new home app that you are forced to use is not as good as the Nest app and misses events. The MISSED events can not be saved, even if you dig through hours of video to find them. It should be illegal for them to block the use of other cloud or even home network data storage. What if Google decided you needed to pay them to access the picture you just took on your phone?
Hi I have a question...want to install ring camera system in my house..what cameras do you recommend ?...thanks.
Any wired/plug in cameras from ring works good.
@lifehacker please tell aa a professional wich camera do you prefer or you think is best use... Give me ur own opinion
This may be a stupid question . I have the ring flood light cam , how do you keep it from being set off by spiders , blowing leaves , snow . It’s on human only and the lowest possible setting…. Now to be fare my blink cams are set off by stray cats and deer .
Mine doesn’t get activated by swaying leaves or spiders..I don’t even set the person detection.
I have the same issue. I get alerts in the middle of the night because a spider was detected around the device.
Do you have a review on eufy Backup Battery for HomeBase 2? Tks.
No, I don't but I'll check it out. Thanks.
You must have tons of cameras in your house. I can see some behind you in that room lol.
Will you do the new simplisafe outdoor camera?
I was planning to a while back but I realized that it needs the alarm system for it to work…so I returned it.
good Camara
Why do cameras have cool off times and why so long? Great video!
Thanks.
@@LifeHackster your welcome
to prevent unecessary multiple notifications from a single event trigger.
Probably to keep from over heating. Just my guess
Try to contact ring with the issue and see what they say
The guy at Best Buy told me the ring is the better of the to and he sells more ring pro than the nest , what you people think?
Ring floodlight camera pro needs to have a 24 time lapse like the video doorbell pro.
It does. Snapshot capture.
@@LifeHackster I do not see on my liveview
My property line is 90 feet from my neighbor's house and he has these things p in the eaves of his roof. Can he see me on my property 90 plus feet away?
This was a real apples and orange test. The focal length is different, lumens, notification, and pricing are different, but the ring overall seemed to be the big winner in this comparison video. Thanks again for all of your hard work. Can't wait to see what you will test or advise next in 2022! Merry Christmas to you and your family! Paul
How when both these are competing directly at each other?
Thank you Paul..and Merry Christmas to you and your family too!
I have issues with Nest Google cameras. With the present second generation of their cameras, you can't make tailored videos to the real vital events, you only have access to the event clips that the software decides, and you thus miss vital information. Also, you don't have a timeline of events which is vital information for law enforcement officers. Even though I currently have five cameras of Nest at my place, I am instead considering buying the Ring camera for my girlfriend's house.
Update 18 - 12- 2023 : Google has updated their service and it is now possible to create custom clips of videos.
Google Nest looks more cool. Google is a big company that can easily innovate their cameras against ring. So I'm not worried about Ring having this, or nest doesn't have this like ring. Google will come out with more features like Ring.
why is their even a comparison ? ring any day of the week
You have the night vision confused. Night vision is the one with the color.
No. Night vision is the traditional black and white with IR LEDs ON. Color Night Vision is the one recording in color.

Ring is behind of the Game with still using 1080 p cameras.. Everyone has moved on to 2k -4k and 8k the only thing i can give ring is they keep the software up to date and always adds new feature. Google just owns everything and i wonder if they use their security cameras to map out peoples homes like their google maps car does
The resolution doesn't mean anything. It's the sensor used that determines the quality.
The ring camera has one extremely bad design flaw in that there is a plastic cover for the camera lens. And this can FALL OFF. It’s held in with only a tiny amount of glue it’s not even friction fit. If it falls off you won’t notice it until the lens gets damaged. It’s a really bad design flaw
10:07 If I can only add a warning clip that says! (Hi A$$hole am watching you).
:)
RING SUCKS, spent over $1000 on 3 cameras with 1 solar charger. Bended up throwing them in the garbage. Kept disconnecting from the modem. Now I have Arlo cameras. They still have some glitches but MUCH better!
Ring is lagging behind all competitors
Simple answer, buy Arlo.
Too many issues with Nest
10 min cool off is the dumbest thing ever
Ring is garbage software is buggy inconsistent trash.
Curious as to what your major issues have been. I like the way Ring updates the features in their app, brought out a streamlined app and in my experience generally seems to get things right (or at least righter) in a reasonable timeframe. Perfect? No, but I think it is far from the inconsistent trash category, too.
It’s app is actually way better than any other brands that I have tested.
You guys are getting fleeced with these Ring or Nest cams. Get yourselves a simple NVR with power over Ethernet connections so you’re not paying a stupid subscription to view anything more than 15 seconds.
Which one would you recommend?
Its 10$ only for one camera recrdn or all the cameras ?
