This is a great camera all on its own, and works well with Ecobee's home security solution, but the big selling point for me is that it is compatible with Apple's HomeKit Secure Video. It frees me from having to pay for the Ecobee subscription and still get notifications including facial recognition and sounds like smoke alarms.

I truly have no hardware design issues with the ecobee's home monitoring line up (SmartSensors, SmartSensors for doors/windows) and this new SmartCamera is no exception. It’s a premium piece of hardware that has shown some capabilities that I’ve not seen on other wireless camera systems that share the store shelf with it. At the same time, I feel that the other brand offerings do show a lot more capability in terms of software and services. But it all depends on your desirements. To name some pros, the camera’s field of view is wide…...VERY wide. If centered in a room against a wall, you’ll be able to see almost 180 degrees east to west as well as about 60 degrees north to south. The camera doesn’t move mechanically, but “zooms” and “pans” the frame while maintaining a level of recording quality. You are able to control zoom and pan via the ecobee app. Also, SmartCamera will do this automatically when a person is in view and follow that person during recording. Which leads me to the Haven Service itself. Ecobee’s answer to “home monitoring” is for a consumer to pay a monthly service for Autopilot, 14 day cloud recording and…….entry alert notifications! If you’ve got SmartSensors, you won’t receive any activity notifications unless you sign up for Haven. Most other offerings provide basic sensor notifications as a free service. SmartCamera does offer basic notifications; enhanced with Haven. There, that’s that. Haven’s Autopilot is a pretty cool feature as it utilizes geofencing to arm and disarm your home. The caveat is that each person in your home will have to install ecobee on their phones and link to your account. This is how Haven recognizes friend from foe; there is no actual facial recognition. If everyone is away from home, it will arm and if at least one person is home, it will disarm. There is no central key panel to arm or disarm, although you can do this manually from the app, if you choose to. Pretty cool stuff. The big con I see with Haven is its reliance on….you. Haven doesn’t actually call anyone in the event of a break-in. It doesn’t even ring an alarm after a standard countdown. It will send you a push notification and ask you for a course of action, which is to either dismiss the trigger or sound the alarm (that comes from the SmartCamera). The idea here is to assess the situation and make a decision, which can eliminate any false alarms. What we don’t realize is that oftentimes we do not have our phones on our persons, or may even have them silenced. It isn’t until many minutes later that you see the notification and find that your house has been hit. C’mon, you can’t say I’m wrong about missing a notification every now and then. It would have been nice to have a fall-back. Going back to the SmartCamera, the cloud recordings can be triggered to run on any motion or set to only record when a person is in-frame. I have it set to person-triggered recording and most of my clips are at 2 minutes long. That should be ample time to see who has entered your house and then some. When the SmartCamera performs its person tracking, it will crop in and pan to follow that person, which is awesome. It did struggle to follow me at times, especially when I moved at a faster pace. With Essential Haven, you are given a 14 day recording cache for a single camera; Extended will allow an unlimited number of cameras for twice the cost of Essential, monthly.
