I was pleasantly surprised by this surveillance camera. Since it is powered only by solar energy, it works remarkably well.

When I took the camera out of the box, I noticed that it had a good weight to it and felt of pretty good quality. Setup was straightforward - the instruction manual includes a QR code that you can scan to download the app. Just register an account and then the app will search for the camera. Then it's time to put the camera in the position you want.

The camera comes with the screws and plates needed to drill, but I'm lazy so I used Gorilla tape. If you haven't used this stuff before, it's time to get to know it It's a double-sided tape that sticks permanently both inside and out. I've used it to hang solar lights, camera doorbells, and now this camera with no problems and total security. Wait... I should check the camera....

Anyway, the picture quality is really great for a solar powered device. I'm sure you could get better image quality with other cameras, but then you would pay a lot more and it would probably need to be wired. It depends on what you are really looking for, but this camera is ideal for our needs. We have a summer house in our backyard, so we use it to keep an eye out for potential intruders.

There is a monthly subscription that you need if you want to automatically record footage. You will also need an SD card for storage. However, without the above, you can view the feed and manually press record when you see something going on. The camera sends a notification to your phone when it detects motion, which is a handy feature. However, it is very sensitive and often recorded the tree blowing in the wind. However, you can adjust the sensitivity of the motion detection feature if you want.

Overall super satisfied with this device and happy to recommend it to others
