Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have plenty of surveillance cameras throughout my house as well as different IP camera’s so my knowledge in this area is above average in my opinion. I previously had a d-link ip camera for my dog room to monitor my dogs while I’m at work. And it has recently gotten the red status light of death. So the search began for a 720p ip camera. I wanted 720p since it’s a good compromise between quality and data/bandwidth since I am constantly streaming in and from my house. I found Wansview and quickly noticed the quality of images customers were posting in their review. And for the price (sub $35), it might be too good to be true! I had a budget of $150 for one camera but since the price for each were so low, I ended up ordering two of them so I can have different angles. Why not right? The camera’s arrived promptly and to my surprise, the packaging was a lot smaller than I expected. Once I opened the package, each of the camera’s were individually wrapped in black plastic. Most likely to keep the electronics from getting wet or exposure to moisture. Things to keep in mind before powering the camera: - Confirm your wifi connection is on a 2.4ghz band. And not 5ghz. - Download the Wansview app for your mobile device and allow it access to use the camera. - You have minutes to set up the camera as soon as you power it on. Follow the instructions in the quick start guide using the default login and password. The guide will only get you as far as connecting the ip camera to your network and your mobile device. Once you have access to your camera, go into the camera settings and change the login and password. You’ll need to do this for every camera. Pro’s: - Quality of the video on live view. - Ability to view a single camera or multiple at once. - Price is way below the competition. - Size of the camera. - Power cord looks to be 10ft long. - Ability to set up multiple users with specific rights. - Ability to record locally to a powered storage device on the network. Con’s: - Quick start guide is literally that. There should be a manual for all features within the app and camera settings. - For those not technically savvy, set up may be a challenge. - Power cord color should match the camera color (minor gripe) - Desktop view requires a 3rd party plugin/exe. All in all, for the price, I think these camera are of excellent quality and great value compared to others. I just may add additional camera’s in the future. Rating it 4 stars since the manual needs improvement.
