The Aqara Camera G100 wins this comparison overall, adding weather resistance, 2K video, color night vision, RTSP streaming, a built-in light and a privacy zone that the indoor-only Google Nest Cam (indoor, wired) does not offer. The Google Nest Cam (indoor, wired) answers with a higher rating, wider Wi-Fi connectivity, HDR video, broader alert coverage and customizable motion zones. Both share the same warranty terms and skip 4K resolution, so the real choice is about placement and smart-alert depth rather than raw specs. Choose the Aqara Camera G100 if you need one camera that can move between indoor and outdoor duty, and choose the Google Nest Cam (indoor, wired) if you only need indoor coverage and want the higher-rated, more feature-rich option.
