Camera with good battery

I've had this camera for about 3 weeks now. So far, so good. The picture quality day and night is excellent and clear. With the standard setting, 20 seconds recording, the battery lasts for about a month. Camera still has 30% battery after 3 weeks. Not sure how rainproof the camera is as I put it under a canopy. Let's see how the camera handles snow in winter. The most annoying thing about this camera is that it doesn't have face recognition. Therefore, every time you or someone walks past the camera, a warning will appear. Can be very annoying! The camera is a lot heavier and bigger than I thought, probably because of the 4 batteries inside. The notification took about 6 seconds from camera to phone. Camera detection isn't as far away as it should be, less than 10 feet from the camera. I wish the camera had the ability to record to an SD card 24/7. It can only record 20-30 seconds of movement. The sound quality is ok in a quiet environment, maybe not audible in a noisy environment. I like how easy and straightforward the app is to set up and the fact that it doesn't require a phone data file. I would recommend trying this camera if in doubt. Eufy has more expensive cameras with a little more bells and whistles, if you will.
