Nest Reinvents the Outdoor Security Camera

Nest Labs today announced sweeping changes to its security camera portfolio with the introduction of Nest Cam Outdoor.

Similar in many ways to the Nest Cam that the company released last summer (which is now called the Nest Cam Indoor), the wired Outdoor Cam captures 1080p HD video, has a 130-degree wide-angle viewing lens, and has a two-way mic so that users can communicate remotely with people that might be in or near their home.

With the same $199 price point as its indoor predecessor, Nest Cam Outdoor works with a mobile app that offers live video streaming and, as part of a subscription, advanced video features.
