Very good quality and amazing price!
I was looking for a remote camera that had good enough quality to watch over my 3D printer while I'm away. This one has really surprised me. I liked the design of it as it looks very smart, it's not too big and has all the features I needed and more!It comes with two mounting options: screws (included) and sticky pads. I've opted for the sticky pads and it has stayed on my pegboard very well, even after I accidentally knocked it.The image quality is great and the viewing angle is very very wide. It's perfect even in relatively dim light. The app is very easy to set up and to use. I can check on my printer anytime and zoom in if I want to see it better.It also has night vision which is very useful for when the lights are out. It also comes with a small pin (just like the ones you use to take aim cards out of an iPhone) for resetting it. This I found very useful as I had lost my pin for my phone!I have used a ring camera in the past but resent paying monthly fees for storage. This has a slot for a TF card (microSD) up to 128gb which I think would last about a year until it filled up!

Absolutely unbelievable.
To say I'm impressed hardly does it justice, earlier this year some kind person obviously reversed into my car as the damage the garage said was consistent with a tow ball hitting the front end of my car, the repair bill was £1200 as the entire front plastic "bumper" area needed to be replaced , my car is parked immediately outside in a parking bay, I know it's unlikely to happen again, but I want the insurance that if it did happen again the evidence would be recorded. I've just this minute set this little camera up, it's astonishing, the motion alert seems to work as described, there is a multitude of settings within the app, so I'll play around with them to get the desired result. Given that this is so inexpensive begs the question why some dash cams cost an arm and a leg, this company should produce dash cams as well, I'd be first in the queue for one, Oh and I should add if you want this as a baby monitor the audio this little camera picks up is equally astonishing so there you go, I've rambled on enough, just buy one, and be astonished.

Great little cameras'. Highly recommended.
The short version.Pro points.Great for keeping an eye on your home from indoors. Ideal for nurseries, pet monitoring and even as a security camera in a small store.Requires minimal tech knowledge; is secure; works with Google Home and Amazon Alexa.No need for a cloud subscription. A 64 gb sd card will hold 3/4 days of continuous footage. Then it will loop the process when it reaches about 90% full.Easy access to camera controls via the app.Set resolutions; pan and zoom; night mode; review past footage while running; passive or interactive audio and activity/motion alerts and bulletins.Easy to mount; well made; elegant design.Cons.1 metre USB power cable. Option for a longer cord on purchase, perhaps?2.4 ghz network requirement could cause problems for those less tech savvy.----The longer review.Our Reasons for Purchasing.I ordered two of these cameras' for my home.At first, the idea was to have one in the upstairs window, over looking our backyard.My intention was to use it to keep an eye out for anyone attempting to break into our shed or home.The second was to be installed in the living room so my daughter could see what her hamster gets up to during the night.However, after a day of use, the "hamster cam" was switched to a outward facing window camera, so my wife could have a view of who was calling at the front door and to keep an eye on our car.There has been some suspicious activity of an evening, recently. A spate of thefts from cars and sheds had occurred in the area.- Please note that this is not the purpose for which these cameras were designed for.--Performance.The performance has been quite acceptable but I would suggest that if you intend to cover the outdoor areas of your property, then buy the correct hardware.The night vision mode was excellent for capturing our Hamster's nocturnal antics.However, I neglected to save any of the footage.The picture quality is impressive. The unit is well made and has a pivotal base.Each camera comes with a template so that you can drill the precise hole positions required to mount the camera on a wall or ceiling. Alternatively, there is a branded adhesive pad included in the box.Also in the box is a 1 metre USB cable to provide power to the camera, and a three pin UK wall socket plug. The plug is small, well made, elegant and quite discreet.The camera can store footage to a cloud service or to a micro sd card.There is a months free trial available from Littlelf, should you require it.Currently, we are have one camera linked to the cloud, on trial. Both units are using 64GB sd cards. These will hold four to three days of continuous footage, wiping earlier footage to make way for the new data, in a loop.The camera has two way audio, too.This makes it an absolutely fantastic option for parents of newborns or toddlers.Couple this with the nightvision and its perfect for nurseries.The AppThe app is really good. There is a straightforward set process that anyone can follow. Connecting to the WiFi network was painless and quick.(Note that you MUST have a 2.4ghz network available before you attempt to set these units up. This can be set up on most modern routers)You can set a up a separate 2.4 network on your wireless hub manager page. It is best to consult your WiFi providers help page for guidance in thisThe interface allows you to watch back footage taken, while still recording. You can also download sections of recordings, take screenshot and zoom in and out.The app is the key to all the camera can do.You can use the two way audio to speak to the room or simply listen.We do use this feature alot, especially as a lazy way of summoning my daughter downstairs for dinner.We use the Android version on two Samsung handsets; an S9 and an A10.The performance on the A10 is a little bit slow, but this is mostly down to the A10's slower processor. The S9 is seamless.This is also where you will integrate the camera/s into your smart home hub.I can confirm that my limited Home hub acknowledges them, but I don't have anything beyond a mini nest and the Google home app.---- Overall opinion---These cameras have great potential. They are quite versatile, even coping in roles that they were not intended to fill.In their primary function as an internal night/day security camera, they are fantastic.They could be deployed in your home, in a small business or shop or even utilised as a pet or nursery monitor.As an indoor to outdoor camera, they function well, but they will have to rely on the ambient light outside to be effective.If you street is well it of an evening, then great. But be prepared to notice reflections from the glass on occasions.The night vision bulbs reflect off the glass and render the function useless.Remember that this is not the role they were designed for. If you want a camera to cover your property outdoors without any ambient light , you will need to buy and install a proper outdoor camera.
