I purchased two of these cameras for use outdoors around my home out in the country. I was very impressed with the wifi range on these cameras; one of which was positioned roughly 150ft outdoors from my nearest mesh wifi access point inside the home. Good smart detection for people/pets/cars as well! Would buy again!
Works as advertised. However often takes 30 seconds to 2 minutes to view the cameras through the app. (Gets stuck on authentication or on step 2/3 or 3/3) often have to close the app and reopen to get it to work.
I've adjusted the settings but I still have to charge the battery once a week. Everything I read it looked like they should hold a charge for months.

This camera would be great, if it actually held a charge. Not impressed at all. Waste of money.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great outdoor security camera that does it all! Excellent quality and features for a reasonable price! Easy set, picture clarity and vision field are very good!
