Pros & Cons
Pros

Highlights
Quality
Video quality is great, night vision is great, sound and speaker are also great.
The image quality is also really good as well.

Packaging/appearance
The packaging and attention to detail is great.
Secondly, google's presentation and packaging is a breath of fresh air.
Yeah, it's packaging, no big deal, but it translates to the product itself.
