Review on πŸ”’ Brinno Duo Front Door Peephole Camera SHC1000W: Mobile & Live Feed Security System with Dual Image Storage, Privacy & No Fees by David Bartan

Revainrating 1 out of 5

So much potential, so much hobbled!

It works as advertised but drains the battery like a dehydrated person sucking water in the desert - this is the product's biggest and most egregious downside. And to make matters worse, it doesn't warn you over Wi-Fi when it's running out of power, so changing the battery is recommended - you'll have to keep an eye on it, which is a real pain. I wish there was a power supply that would allow mains power to be used! Management was a nightmare as there is no way to view and then delete unwanted photos. Despite the possibility of connecting to Wi-Fi, the possibility of uploading pictures or videos to the Internet and storing them on the device for remote access and security was not considered. The photo quality is good, although not the best. For the price one would have expected something better. The user interface is something only a 1970's Japanese engineer could love, so the user experience is something terrible. It shows so much promise, but very little attention has been paid to its potential, which is why it limps like a thoroughbred racehorse with hamstrings.
