Great Security Camera
I basically use this camera to spy on my dog. After downloading the app, setup is quick and easy. From my phone, I can now see what my pup is doing and also talk to her through the built-in microphone. MicroSD card is included. Highly recommend.

Excellent picture! Super easy to set up!
The Lorex Indoor 1080 was incredibly easy to set up. It has an app that I was able to download to my iPhone and scan and get set up in minutes. The picture quality is absolutely amazing. Way better than anything I have with the popular outdoor smart cameras. What I like about this indoor camera is a few of the features that I have set up. First, I have it pointed at a door - and I have it set-up that I only get notifications and it will start to record when it detects a person. Second, I have set up my home area in the app and I only receive notifications when I am not home. I get a push notification when I enter or leave my "home area". I really wish we could set our outdoor cameras to do this! It let's you open up the app and manually record or take snapshots. You can also use this with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. I definitely recommend this indoor camera!

Solid monitoring camera Interior security

Solid monitoring camera
Interior security cameras are great tools to keep tabs on just about anything. You can use one to as not only a security device but you can monitor your baby's room or any child's room for that matter and maybe catch domesticated (or non) critters roaming the house.
I've been using a 720p wireless camera in my garage keeping tabs on my CNC machine, laser engraver and 3D printers. It worked okay but when using an Amazon Echo Show 5 on my desktop the video would buffer constantly and eventually time out.
I've been using a 720p wireless camera in my garage keeping tabs on my CNC machine, laser engraver and 3D printers. It worked okay but when using an Amazon Echo Show 5 on my desktop the video would buffer constantly and eventually time out.
Hoping to improve the performance of my system I wanted to try the new Lorex Indoor 1080p wifi camera. So far this is exceeding my expectations. Setup was mostly painless (had to abort and retry... second attempt was successful. I am not a huge fan of having to create and account to use the camera but it seems most are like that and they do try to upsell you the cloud monitoring service however I'm only interested in real time so I don't need the cloud saving of the camera videos.
Setup with Alexa was a breeze. I just had to skill link my new Lorex Home account with Alexa and I was up and running in no time. What truly impresses me that I get absolutely no buffering of my video and so far it doesn't time out in the middle of my 3D printer runs.
The camera does have a micro SD slot so if you want to save videos locally you can or you can save to cloud as previously mentioned. The app will also allow you to record audio or not, you can also do a 180 degree rotation of the image if you decide to mount the camera with base side up. The app also allows you to switch between standard definition or high definition video and you can mute the audio if you wish.
It does come with the camera, a charging adapter and a USB A to micro USB power cable. I do wish it would have had a USB C port on the camera... hey Lorex... get on board! While wireless you do still need to have a power source (no battery) so be aware that location of the camera needs to be close to an outlet (or use extension cords).
I'm extremely pleased with the performance and may pick another up for overhead mounting while using my CNC. For 3D printing I have the camera focused on the nozzle to make sure the print is going as planned.
A solid buy... going to get another! Highly recommended if you need any kind of camera for monitoring inside the house or garage.

Perfect Video Camera The Lorex

Perfect Video Camera
The Lorex Indoor Wi-Fi Security Camera is a small, simple, and very good-looking security camera, and has an amazing number of features.
Set-up is very simple and quick, I downloaded the Lorex app to my cell phone and a tablet, plugged in the Lorex security camera, pressed the + icon in the Lorex app, and it literally took a couple of seconds and we had video.
Video resolution is remarkable. Once I had the Lorex Indoor Security Camera set-up, I placed the camera on our inside front window ledge, facing our walkway to the front door, our carport, and part of the street out front. With the camera, sitting on the window ledge, monitoring through the window and the window screen, the camera was extremely sensitive to movement and the video was amazingly clear. Our front window is not in the direct sun light, the image lighting remains stable, and the temperature will not approach the max camera temperature.
The Lorex Security Camera is motion activated and will send a notification to your cell phone or tablet when it activates. You can open the app at any time and start monitoring live video and recording that video. When the Lorex Security Camera activates, to a motion, it will store a video of the action for a period and when there is no activity for a set amount of time the camera will turn off.
There are many adjustments that can be made, in the app, for tweaking to your personal needs/situations.

The camera has sensitivity settings from 1-6, on 3 the camera was picking up every car that past in front of our home and was sending a notification to my phone. I had to turn the sensitivity down to 2 and this stopped the Lorex Security Camera from turning on every time a car passed by. With this setting our coverage was from our front door to the sidewalk out by the street.
The full monitoring area is very big, you can adjust this very easy by entering into the set up and using your finger to highlight the grid area you prefer to have coverage and saving it, very nice feature.
The two-way audio is surprisingly clear and a nice feature.

For the price point this is a remarkable Security Camera with a lot of versatility.

Best WiFi camera
This camera has all the same functionality as a Nest cam and it also has a memory card in it so you don�t have to pay for a service. The picture is very clear, notifications are easy and you can set it up for human detection, again, something you have to pay for with nest. App is very easy to use and for the money, this is by far the best option.

Eyes In The Sky... Well Just on The Pup
I absolutely love my Lorex camera and the simplicity of it all. It took all of 2-3 minutes to open it up and set it up.
Best features are how slim it is, the magnetic plate to secure it to the wall, the crisp imaging, and two way audio.
In comparison to my previous camera this one won�t be bulky and annoying while it sits neatly on a shelf.
Biggest win is that the camera has a micro SD slot so that I don�t have to subscribe to a cloud company or of forgetting my password to access them.
I work a normal daytime job so being able to keep an eye on my little guy is very important to me. He�s a little annoyed obviously... but I�m glad I can check in on him anytime I want.

Great price on a solid security camera.
I am very happy with my Lorex - Indoor 1080p Wi-Fi Network Security Camera. The product comes with everything you need in the box and the on-line setup and app worked first time out! I was able to register the device, do a firmware update and connect to my Wi-Fi without any issues. I was able to go from box to fully functioning in about 15 minutes!
The device offers high definition, wide-angle video that you can view in real time in the app AND record to an internal (provided) memory card that is expandable. This is great because it means you don't have to buy an expensive monitoring service in order to use the camera.
The body is made out of high impact plastic and can be mounted in a variety of ways. All of the hardware you need for that is included. You also get two vinyl stickers for your windows to warn the bad guys that you have video surveillance deployed.

You should be aware of a couple of things - the provided power cable is generous but still limits how far you can place the camera from an outlet. Also, if you enable the motion auto-detect capability the app can flood your phone with notifications if anything moves. This can be easily disabled but be aware that the default is to have it on.
Overall the folks at Lorex have created a very good security solution at an excellent price.
