Overall for the price, the features that come with these cameras are a good deal. Other brands would charge more, especially with these having full pan and tilt. Works best in rooms like nurseries or any other low traffic area. Pros: - manual setup was easy - full pan and tilt. - can clearly hear when using the mic - picture/video quality isn't bad - command center view is great! It gives you the option to see 4 , 9, or 16 cameras at once. You can adjust angle from that view and also click to go straight to a certain camera. There is also an option to select all cameras tied to a certain room (living room, bedroom, etc.). - local storage via SD card - integration to Google Home app - provides decent video in darker rooms Cons: - bit of a delay when adjusting position of camera - hard to gauge how much to press an arrow to adjust the angle. - alerts when something is detected are a little delayed and some time alerts of false positives - Cameras max out at 720p wish the picture/video quality was a little better. Would've been great to have at least 1080p. - instructions to connect with Google Home was very confusing. It only had pictures and there was no way to zoom in to see them better. Written steps along with pictures and ability to make pictures larger would've been helpful.

I had been wanting an easy-to-use and unobtrusive camera in my house so that I could drop in my pet sitter, cleaners, and others who are in my home when I'm not there, and also to help keep track of the comings and goings of my teenagers. The MobiCam HDX definitely fills that need. It's small, very easy to set up, and takes high-quality video. With the app, the camera is easy to use, you can quickly and efficiently pan side to side and tilt up and down to make sure you're always able t see what you want to see. The app controls are very intuitive and quick to learn. You can also talk through the camera which is a neat function I've tested but have not had a chance to really use yet. I've got mine sitting on a small table, but for those who would want to mount the camera, everything is included. It seems like it would be really easy to add more cameras to this system and I'll probably be doing that soon. Anyone who is thinking about getting a camera like this should not hesitate to buy a MobiCam HDX!

Some pros and cons I've experienced are as follows: Pros: 1. Set up was easy. 2. No monthly fees. You can set it to record via motion, manual, or continuous to the Cloud or to a 32Gb MicroSD card (not included). 3. Whenever it detected motion, it recorded it for a few seconds on the app so you can take a look back at it. 4. The video quality is the best yet and the night vision is remarkable. Cons: 1. No manual to explain how to better use the app. 2. The space utilized for the icons could be smaller so they all fit on one screen without having to scroll.

For less than $50, the MobiCam HDX is a respectable offering for anyone looking for a basic baby or pet cam for their home. The setup process was a bit clunky but I got through it on the first try, at that point you can add other authorized users to your home if you wish. Image quality is pretty good and the device actually looks pretty nice sitting on my shelf compared to other home cams I've used. My biggest complaint is the pan and tilt - maybe I just haven't got the hang of this yet but trying to move the camera in the app effectively is almost impossible, it's far too sensitive! Making even the smallest swipes on your phone app causes the camera to pan almost 90 degrees, I have yet to figure out how to make fine adjustments so at this point it pretty much is just a stationary camera which works for my use case but is not what I expected. In this price range Mobi's is a fair choice and seems about on par with other similar priced cameras, but it would take some much better firmware and controls for me to consider moving this to 5 star territory.

I use this camera to watch my pet when I'm gone. My dog has a few hang-out spots, and the ability to pan and tilt the camera in the app is essential for covering a wide area. It's also loads of fun. I'll find myself snapping pictures and recording videos of my dog. It's refreshing that the captured media files have the option to go straight to your phone or on an SD card, rather than forcing you to a cloud subscription. I also enjoy the camera's round pill look, as I prefer that to the blocky square build of other monitors. The camera is quiet when it moves and a perfect purchase to monitor a pet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought as a gift for a baby shower. This has more features than a traditional camera and allows you to be able to see the majority of the room with one camera. Sturdy base as well that can be placed in different positions.
