Review on Motorola FOCUS68 Wi-Fi HD Home Monitoring Camera - Black (FOCUS68B) by Ronnie Cole

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like that it provides both motion and sound alerts

I've been in need of picking up a basic camera for our house. We have a basic ADT security system, but I wanted something with video. This wasn't too difficult to setup with the iOS app. I like that it provides both motion and sound alerts. I also like that you can use it for live streaming and speaking with people/pets that may be in that location.In the end, though, to really get the full functionality you need to signup for for a Hubble plan. I've yet to have done that, as I'm not sure this will be the best solution for me. For now, if there is an alert, I get a basic picture when one of the sensors is tipped off. You can set time alerts, but I wish this was more flexible. It also features a temperature gauge, which could be handy in some instances as well.For now, I think it works good enough for me. If I had something happen, I can at least refer back to the situation for a bit. I'm out of luck if days go by, however, since I've not subscribed.

Pros
  • Feature room temperature monitoring, Infrared night vision, white night light
Cons
  • The camera's motion detection feature doesn't always pick up movement, sometimes missing critical events
