Nice brick, good launch shape

Lol such a basic unit, bad sensitivity, no 120 days charge unless theyre off, no all day play back and even when or what it records is sporadic at best. Struggles to patch in to feed constantly, on android. 4k is nice viewing when (few and far between) it chooses to show it, doesnt support any 5ghz signals so always seems to struggle if not relegated to an IoT connection. Lucky i bought at half price because OMG not worth anywhere near the RRP. Still feel i got ripped on em, my fault though, did review check them first and didnt listen. Only thing i cant figure out (besides why you need the security subscription to have any more than live feed) is wtf is the point of these things? Way too expensive, no sd access without AI security (wow, right? It says people or car about), blows through batteries like a samsung, detection works sort of if no leaves a blowing, 4k minus the 4 (and k). Honestly, basic lazy unit designed im assuming to forever charge you (like a live service game). Gets 2 stars because on the off chance it loads in full 4k with no frame drops, makes me believe thats theyre not so bad. Till it freezes and cant re-access camera. And so this review might be read. P.S, took to one with a hammer and not super durable either, plastic splinters very easy, wouldnt advise dropping them if you have to remove to charge every couple of days.

Lazy camera and buggy AI
on April 5, 2025
Posted by: Dave50
Slow waking up. You can be literally standing in front of the camera and it doesn’t wake up giving an intruder the advantage. Battery life is ok . The AI is very buggy and needs a lot of work. I would not recommend this camera

Hello Dave50, Thanks for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear the camera’s wake-up time and AI performance haven’t met your expectations. It should activate promptly with motion, so if there's a delay, it could be related to settings like sensitivity or placement.

We’d appreciate the opportunity to help troubleshoot and optimize the setup for better performance. Please email us at tech@swann.com so we can assist directly.

Your feedback is important to us.

Set n Forget WiFi Camera
on April 29, 2024
Posted by: Skooter
Recently upgraded my Xtreem camera to the new 4K model - huge noticeable differences!
Fantastic battery time (still ‘waiting’ to recharge and it’s been nearly three months already…)
Crystal clear recordings and great clarity with the night time recordings. The spotlights are a welcoming addition for our visitors at the front door too.
Super easy to set up and to make any individual settings to suit your requirements. Really like it!
