Better than many more expensive competitors.

I've been looking for ages after putting up with the competition's OS for too long. This camera meets almost all the requirements I was looking for: - Fast response time. I'm no longer attached to short shots of a person or machine just leaving the frame, the whole event is captured by this camera and I'm notified within seconds. - Built-in expandable memory. Supports 64GB miniSD. Sufficient for >1 month if your sensitivity is fully activated. No forced subscription. If you want cloud storage, 1 week free is included. You can pay monthly to increase. Things are heating up now that Ring debuted the concept a while back. This camera does a lot better for the reasons mentioned above. - Connected to the network. I hated reloading my old camera. Climbing stairs five times a year to service my inferior camera? No thank you. This camera is equipped with a non-detachable, fixed power cord with a USB charging port. It's long, maybe 10-15 feet? - CHEAP. I thought this game was a get-what-you-pay test. Absolutely not the case. I bought this junk but after seeing all the pros I'm ready to buy 4 more. I can't believe I spent almost $400 on a monthly competitive subscription. What a scam. If I could add something, I would allow this camera to loop to MicroSD and just record 24/7. In addition, this is a surveillance camera, it should be offered in black. Otherwise, the quality of a WiFi camera depends on the signal strength around it. It's 2.4GHz so you can get away with a little more distance. I had to play around with one of my Orbi satellites to tweak the signal strength, but I'm good to go now.

Pros
  • Not only can you watch live, but you can also listen and speak directly through the camera thanks to two-way communication.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
