androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-07-23 00:00:09

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority It’s hard to blame anyone for feeling fed up with Google Nest cameras right now. The latest Nest Aware price hike means users will soon be paying up to $200 a year, with zero new features to show for it. That’s on top of already pricey hardware, limited local storage options, and a system that some feel might actually be getting worse rather than better.
