It only took eight weeks! Do not buy!

I am so disappointed with these YI Indoor Wireless Cameras that I will never buy a YI product again! I bought them in a set of two only nine weeks ago. One has completely disappeared, and the other is also starting to disappear completely. I was honestly hoping it was an isolated "lemon" camera, but even with the second capricious one I'm sure it's the manufacturer's fault. They took about a week to install and one failed completely after eight weeks of use and as I said the second is starting to go haywire too. About a week ago I received an unusual amount of notifications on my phone from my first camera. What I found was that the image would fade in and out with every movement. For this reason, the camera was triggered by a motion sensor. Tried resetting the camera. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app on my phone. I turned my cell phone off and on again. Nothing really helped. The problem is with the camera itself. Nine days have passed since my return and today there is no picture at all. It's just wrong that I bought them in good faith and they didn't even give me three months of use! You really do get what you pay for. There is no such thing as a "good deal" anymore. I do not recommend this brand. I got lucky with my Reolink camera but they are a bit more expensive. I figured I would save money with a YI camera, and even more by buying it as a kit. I'd rather spend the extra money and have a camera I can rely on. The YI camera is not.

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Something different
