For the price this is a great kit, easy install, good picture quality, motion detection is brilliant, the camera will follow you as you move through the area, also has the function to send notifications when something is detected and around that To top it off, it has two-way audio so you can yell at any unwanted guest, while it lasts it's a decent bit of kit. The only thing I don't like is that the movement is inverted, the setting hasn't been corrected yet, but I would definitely recommend it.

This camera is perfect for our purposes. The picture quality is very good, the motion detection option allows multiple shots to be taken each time it is triggered, shows a series of photos of the moving subject. the house in bad weather while comfortably viewing photos from the camera and deleting a series of irrelevant photos as needed, It's great. It's convenient.

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆}

Most new generation surveillance cameras are often round or very rounded in shape and white in color.
This is different here with the square cube with the chamfered edges and I really like the shape.
In addition, the color, which goes very well with our windows, doors, etc., is not as conspicuous as a white camera.

To start up, you have to install the manufacturer's app and create an account as usual and integrate the camera into the WLAN network.

The camera only supports 2.4GHz networks and if you connect the device (tablet or smartphone) on which you have installed the app to the 2.4GHz WiFi and follow the instructions in the app and the German manual, the setup is easy and done quickly.

The camera is attached to a wall etc. directly with the housing using screws which are then covered by silicone plugs.
It doesn't make sense for me to mount the camera rotated by 180°, but if this is necessary, you can activate "rotate the screen" in the app so that the image is not displayed upside down.

I really like that the live image in the app is displayed quickly and without much delay. With my much more expensive cameras (Arl..Ultra) I have a much longer delay and the picture is not much better with them either.

The app offers the usual options for setting up the camera and a clear display of the recordings on the micro SD card.

There is a power consumption statistic so in conjunction with the alarm and video settings you can find out the maximum battery life.

As usual, areas can also be marked in which no movement should be detected.

The recordings and the live image can be made with the resolutions SD or FHD. This is set with two clicks in the app.
The current WLAN strength and data transmission rate are also displayed there.
With SD it was about 20KB/s for me and with Full HD (FHD) up to 220KB/s.

The image was displayed very sharply and with high contrast with a slightly visible delay (1-2s).
The depth of field is impressive. Both an object positioned very close (approx. 30cm) to the lens and objects that were far away were sharply represented.
The digital 4x zoom works, but shouldn't be overestimated because of course details are lost as a result. If you want sharp pictures here, you have to opt for a camera with an optical zoom.

Using the app, the camera can be panned over a very wide area with a very short delay time. That's 355° horizontally and 120° vertically.
This gives you an all-round view and you can look at the sky or the ground.

What also worked very well was the motion detection with the PIR sensor, which is intended to only detect movements of people and not to record every movement of bushes etc.

In the alarm management, the detection sensitivity can be set in 10 levels.
In the "Alarm plan" periods are defined in which recordings are to be made
The live image from the camera is shown with the "Alarm area" item and overlaid with 144 squares (16 horizontally and 9 vertically). By activating the individual squares (which are clearly colored orange), you can define the areas in which the motion detection should be active.

One of three options can be activated under "Warning with sound and light".

"When motion or people are detected, the camera sends a warning with"
• Alarm with sound (siren)
• Alarm with light
• Alarm with light and sound

A sub-item in alarm management is the "alarm work mode".
Three options can be activated here.

1▪︎In energy-saving mode, the recording time is limited to a maximum of 10s and the detection of people is activated.
2▪︎In performance mode, the recording time is extended by detecting motion again.
3 ▪︎If the "Custom Mode" is activated, you have three options.
• Activate that only persons are recognized at night and/or during the day.
• The recording is made with 10 • 20 or 30 seconds
• Switch off the alarm interval or set it to 2 • 5 or 10 minutes.

The battery life is of course dependent on how many events are recorded. The longest battery life is probably achieved in energy-saving mode.
You can check this in the power consumption statistics and adjust the settings in performance mode accordingly.

The recordings were stored on a micro SD card with a capacity of 128GB. My card was recognized but had to be formatted in the camera. Therefore, you should back up the data on the card beforehand.

On the positive side, storage in the cloud has to be activated separately. According to the description, the free test phase is 7 days, which I did not use, although it makes sense.
If the camera is stolen, the SD card is gone and you have no evidence or pictures of the thief.
The videos are definitely stored more securely in the cloud.

I was surprised by the WLAN range, which allows a greater distance from the router compared to other cameras.
Here again comes the comparison with the Arl.. cameras, which - for me - have a much shorter range.
The stronger signal - for me - can probably be explained by the "improved 4 dBi dual WLAN antennas". However, other reasons cannot be ruled out.

The WLAN range as well as the picture quality is very good, the depth of field is great and if it's a bit dark and you want to see colored pictures, you can switch on the built-in and bright "headlight LED" with the app.
This can optionally also be activated when motion is detected and thus draw the attention of uninvited "guests" to the camera.

A not very loud but sufficiently loud siren can be activated for 30s when motion is detected and drives away - hopefully - uninvited visitors if necessary.
The built-in speaker is better for communicating with visitors than I've heard on other cameras.

Due to the relatively short test phase, I cannot yet judge the battery life in the current weather (with little sunshine) and thus the charging by the solar panel. In addition, the battery life is also dependent on many factors, so that the times determined by me cannot be regarded as a reference.

I rate the price-performance ratio as very reasonable.

In any case, the overall impression is so good that I can recommend the camera and rate it with a very good five stars.
It's one of the best cameras I've tried so far.

The detection is not very accurate, in some places, it gives erroneous readings and nothing is found.

Night vision images are very clear. Motion detection is pretty fast and picture quality is great.

For the price this is a great kit, easy installation, good picture quality, motion detection is brilliant, the camera will follow you as you move through the area, also has the function to send notifications when something is detected and around that To top it off, it has two-way audio so you can yell at any unwanted guest, while it lasts it's a decent piece of kit. The only thing I don't like is that the movement is inverted, the setting hasn't been corrected yet, but I would definitely recommend it.

I like that the sensitivity of the motion detection function can be adjusted in steps. I was satisfied with the anti-crime aspect as well as the recording
because I could turn on the lights and sound the alarm when people came . It's perfect that it can be solar charged, but be careful only in the sun. Also, it's a bit difficult to attach a camera, so if you can't devise it yourself, you may have a bit of a struggle. I was a little worried about that, but personally I'm satisfied.

For testing I mounted this a piece of lumber to move around for different scenarios. It works well and is reliable. Motion detection is prompt and do not get false alarms. IT sits in sleep mode most of the time so therefore batteries stayed charged even though the solar panel is not in direct sunlight. As with all of the cameras there can be some delay in audio and panning.
