ecobee SmartCamera – Indoor WiFi Security Camera, Baby & Pet Monitor, Smart Home Security System, 1080p HD 180 Degree Field of View, Night Vision, Two-Way Audio, Compatible with Apple HomeKit, Built-in Alexa Review

I have an Ecobee thermostat. thought it would be nice to pair that camera with this one. But this is probably the most expensive indoor camera option. The Alexa integration is good. and I heard there will be an option to save videos to Apple Homekit. But this camera has two major drawbacks. The first is a loud click when the camera switches to night vision mode. Along with it, three bright red LEDs light up. That might be fine if you don't have a camera in a prominent place in your home, but…

This camera is of very good quality. The picture is excellent and really captures a large viewing area. The automatic activation and deactivation feature is great (it is based on your geolocation).

Overall the camera delivers a sharp image that meets the needs of most homeowners. Despite being an indoor camera, there is a window view option that allows you to place the camera in a window to capture the world outside. Night vision was pretty good compared to others we tested. The camera uses 3 powerful infrared LEDs with a mechanical ICR filter. He was able to spot our all black cat and got surprisingly close for night vision. We found the camera to be very reliable, even when we were out…

I have to say I really like the SmartCamera. The video is sharp, the night vision works well and the 180° field of view is really nice. Virtually panning while following a person's movement gives the impression that the camera is actually tracking them physically (when "Human Detection" is enabled). The camera integration with Haven (for storing and viewing recorded video) is really good. I had no problems with that at all. Uploading seems to work fine (I have good WiFi coverage and a fast…
