BOAVISION 5MP Security Camera Outdoor, Wireless WiFi IP Camera Home Security System 360° View,Motion Detection, auto Tracking,Two Way Talk,pan Tile Full Color Night Vision,5G/2.4G WiFi

Have bought 5 off these good cams. One went down don't know why....Cept it was one and a half years old. Bought the 8mp and I think it's maybe too deaf. The regular HD seems just as good and noticeable as they been software updated. But really happy for the value and a tip don't pay for DVR software het ispy agent it's awesome and free....free is good. Take getting use too but actually been fun. Ty Noavision and Ispy agent.

I did a lot of research before selecting this product. It arrived as promised and it installed quickly and easily. The unit connected to Wi-Fi, the app is easy to use and everything works together seamlessly. I had to do some adjustments to the AI humanoid and motion sensitivities to eliminate the false alarms but still detect me trying to "sneak" past the motion detector - but it works perfectly. The video and pictures are fantastic and I also set up additional presets for camera viewing. Everything saves to the SD card and I can easily able to view from the app. Even with recent temperatures here in MN well below zero F, the camera works flawlessly.

Works great when it works but then constantly drops off my network and my network is fine and works perfectly fine it’s the camera dropping, completely useless at this point if when I need it that it’s conveniently down.

Not sure how many of these Chinese security cameras are made by the same company and just carry a different name but I've had much better luck with this brand than say Jennov which I used to get. This one works quite well and can record either constant or periodically or just when it detects movement. Recordings can be stored on the camera or in the cloud. Don't know if there is a fee for the cloud storage never used it. Depending on the size of the memory card you can store months of videos depends on how sensitive you have motion detector set. Videos have two setting standard which is a lower resolution and HD which is a higher resolution. Both seem adequate The sound leaves a little to be desired although it will record voices they are sometimes hard to understand particularly if there's any other background noise. The sound recording is much better indoors than outdoors. Needs to be plugged in comes with power brick that converts 110 to whatever the voltage is for the camera so you're gonna have to have it within say 10' of an outlet or use an extension cord but the camera itself works off your WIFI. If you don't want to spend a lot of money and you want a camera that just works and records this one will do just fine. It works very well with the free CamHi app. One of my Boavision camera's rotation failed don't know why took it apart and they're made quite will but couldn't find the problem.

Works great for the price very easy to set up and I may buy another one

Excellent camera, great value for the price. I strongly recommend it! Great picture quality and the intelligent tracking is precise, very responsive to detect movements.

I have an older 1080P version of this, that has lasted several years. I got this to replace that one and use the old one elsewhere. The old one had an issue where the full color night setting would randomly kick the lights off and on all night, which made it nearly impossible to set a motion sense option for recording, due to so many false alarms. So far that issues seems to have been fixed and I have not caught it doing that yet. So 5/5 for that. The old one also had issues on WiFi and was very flaky. So far for the first couple of weeks, this has been rock solid on WiFi. (Only has 2.4) So 5/5 for that as well. The loss of 2 stars are for the following. First the annoyance of removing Both the Sharpness and Shutter speed options. Not sure why they went backwards on that and removed them. But mainly due to a problem with iFrames. In Blue iris, Every single camera I have shows a full iFrame for the set FPS. For example15/1 or 20/1. This camera only does about 1/4 to 1/3 of them, so it only shows 15/.25 up to 15/.34 The problem with this, is if you have motion triggers setup, you could easily miss some due to the iFrame problem. Also, no matter what Resolution is set, it will not go above 15 fps, even if I set it to 20 or higher. Even though this is a 5MP camera, I have another 5MP camera that does have a sharper picture as well. if the above issues aren't of concern, this does seems to be a fairly solid camera at this price point.

I've had a number of these cameras from this manufacturer and so far they're all working for quite a few years, it's a little tricky to set up, but once you get them set up they work well
