What a fantastic camera, set up was super easy, the app is easy to you. The picture quality is superb, during the day and at night. It's great that you can share the camera too, which allows both my son and I access. Highly recommend. It's the best wireless camera I have had so far.

My first impression after unboxing was how small and solidly made the device is. Very neat.The connection to Wi-Fi is clearly explained in the well written manual and simple to do. While the device was on charge, I downloaded the APP using the QR code and noted the SSID and password of my 2.4GHz Wi-Fi router.The APP also takes you step by step through the quick setup and minutes, I was seeing the camera view on my phone screen.I was amazed how well thought out the product is, when I explored the range of settings available in the APP. I tried to imagine the different ways this device might be used and provided you follow the guidance in the manual, you won’t be disappointed.One use I have for the camera is my back yard. There is no Wi-Fi there. The solution is to use a mains-plug type Wi-Fi extender to my existing power supply in the yard.Note, when out of your Wi-Fi range, you can still manage the camera using your phone data. The switch is automatic if that is how you set your phone. It will consume your data allowance.Because the audio worked so well, it can also be 2-way, the small size of the device made it unobtrusive, making it a great spy camera or baby monitor. There is a delay between the sound, and it being heard of about a second. It would be longer with a weak Wi-Fi signal. The delay prevents the howl of acoustic feedback. It becomes an echo.Because of the wide-angle lens, there is excellent visual coverage in the clear, sharp picture. Some barrel distortion is to be expected in the image. The camera copes faultlessly with the range of daylight to dusk lighting. Of course, there is a built-in light for complete darkness, and you can switch to black and white from colour for increased image clarity. I couldn’t find any timer setting that would make the switch for you.An interesting feature that I haven’t seen with other cameras is the Artificial Intelligence filtering you can choose to switch on in settings, so only humans are detected. Anything else like cars, pets, swaying tree branches can then be ignored and won’t trigger an alarm. What a great idea! It also has the typical, less sophisticated, PIR detector that other cameras and security lights have. Belt and braces detection.In settings, you can also define a particular region of the scene that detects movement. For example, you might only want the activity at a specific doorway to be triggered in an otherwise busy scene.If you have several of these cameras to monitor different areas or rooms, this is easily handled for you by the app. Different users can also be specified so the monitoring can be shared. I haven’t seen any other consumer setups do this.I wondered what SD cards would be suitable. I only have cards that record 4K and the camera is only 2K or HD so any quality card that can record 4K won’t be a waste of money. A 16Gb card could hold either 10,000 photos OR about 12 hours of video with sound. Typically, a video clip might be about 10 seconds long unless you change the setting. I discovered that when the card is full, the recording writes over the earliest recording.The device is designed to be totally weatherproof as you would expect, the switches, SD card socket and charge point are sealed in with a tight fitting, removeable rubber bung.The simple swivelling fixing bracket should allow you to fix easily and orientate the camera perfectly. There is even a setting to rotate the image 180 degrees if necessary.I quite like the idea of a bright warning light being activated, only at night, to warn off intruders. Almost as satisfying as telling them, over the device’s loudspeaker, to clear off! If you choose, you can set the device to emit a siren sound. A brilliant response if you are in an isolated area, away from neighbours.I haven’t been able to measure the battery life, but it drops about 1% per day in my less active environment. If you constantly monitor the action, as you would expect, your phone battery runs down much quicker.

Good camera with a lot of options. Worth the money, fast delivery

Was happy with a previous version of the ieGeek Camera but this is even better.Easy to setup the CloudEdge App lets you manage multiple cameras, and it have the facility to send a popup alert on your mobile phone for remote peace of mind. I've previously contacted ieGeek's tech support (trying to work out how to open the charging cover - there are 2 rubber covers so it's waterproof) and they were very responsive.This camera monitors my back garden, it's small enough to balance on the fence and no draw attention to itself. It wouldn't be out of place inside the house either if that's it's intended application. My camera is a way from the Internet Router but still picks up a decent Wifi signal. The image quality is clear and sharp, daytime or night-time.The motion detection is good, particularly as you can tune the area you want it to send alerts on, the siren facility is useful, not too loud as to be annoy the neighbours but enough I think to make any unwelcome intruders to think again, the speech facility is useful as well in case you have cause to use it.I've added an SD card to give me the facility to record activity, this is straightforward to setup, the app asks do you want to format the card and away you go.These batteries last for ages, I'm expecting weeks before I need to charge it again.

What do you do when upgrading from wired cctv to wireless? You go for ieGeek of course!Was looking for Wi-Fi cameras to swap for our wired set (having the outside walls and French windows changed so had to change the cctv. Looked on Amazon for inspiration and found myself looking at ieGeek products. They have cameras for all prices. I chose something a little up from the cheapest, thinking they would ‘do for the time being’, but they turned out better than that. When my partner saw they could be used with the ieGeek solar panels, we HAD to get those too.Once they arrived I installed the app (from the App Store for iPhone), added the devices to the app, drilled holes and mounted the cameras in the correct position, and that was it! Simple!There are all sorts of things you can use via the app, turning on and off Motion Detect is fantastic - if your working outside you don’t need an alarm all the time. The light and loud speaker are both great, as is the microphone - it’s so easy to hear people (sometimes too easy if there are people in there gardens, but also very easy to turn off).All in all they are fantastic cameras for the price, as are the solar panels.And we are so happy with the app, we’ve also bought one of the ieGeek front door bell/cameras. Can’t wait to install that too!
