Review on 2021 Arebi Spy Camera Wireless HD 1080P: Mini Home Security Covert Nanny Cam with WiFi, Motion Detection, and Night Vision - A10 Plus by Rich Schobinger

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Small and magnetic. Sticks to fridge or metal.

Full disclaimer, I was given one of these devices to test in exchange for a video review. So far I'm happy with the results from my testing, but there are definitely improvements to be made to this camera. What I like about it is that it is very small and magnetic. It sticks to your fridge or other metal objects. I wouldn't call it a spy camera in its current form as it's pretty obvious that it's a camera. For a camera of this size, it has very good picture and sound quality. Unfortunately, it has many advantages. First, the battery life is very short. This can be remedied by connecting a battery pack, but then loses its discretion. It's also not the easiest camera to use. I've used a lot of Wi-Fi cameras in the past and they usually have their own app that you can access and connect to. In this camera, you need to download a third-party application called "P2PLiveCamera". You will then need to connect via your phone's Wi-Fi settings before entering the app. The app has many settings that you can control, including motion detection. You can turn off the LED light and change file size settings. Really many settings for random stuff, even some settings I'll probably never use. As for future improvements, I would make it a square so it's very clear where up is. Battery life could be improved. The app also needs improvement. I don't have to enter a very long SSID to connect. I would also have liked more mounting options. What I don't like is that there is no way to mount it on a tripod. All in all, it has its downsides, but you also have to keep an eye on the price. For $50 it works exactly as I expected. Advantages: * Small and light * Magnetic. Can be stuck on any metal* Video quality* Sound quality. Cons:* Form factor* Battery life* Has a learning curve
