This sure does look exactly like every other Nest Cam out there.
Google is overdue an update to its smart home setup, and now we know when itβll come: October 1st. The company has teased some sort of launch or announcement for that day, promising that βGemini is coming to Google Home.β
The company announced Gemini for Home at last monthβs Made by Google event, promising early access would begin in October, so a dedicated event with more details before things kick off makes sense. Googleβs AI assistant will eventually replace Google Assistant across the smart home, theoretically enabling natural language interactions and more intuitive controls.
Weβre not only expecting an assistant announcement. Googleβs teaser includes a glimpse of a Nest Cam, and while it looks the spitting image of existing hardware, we expect itβs a new model, rumored to launch soon alongside a new Nest Doorbell, both featuring 2K camera support. Thereβs also the small matter of the unknown Nest speaker glimpsed during the recent launch stream, which we expect to be at the center of Googleβs new home hardware.
Is that you, Gemini? Come in and make yourself at Home![]()
