So far so good! I’ve never had security cameras and this one is so easy to use. At first the battery was draining to soon but we adjusted the settings and it’s lasting longer now.

We bought these to replace our old cameras which were wired. We were told the batteries last long 3-4 months but we found if all the alerts are on the batteries only last a couple of weeks not so good

I installed it a few days ago and it's worked perfectly since then. It's not that difficult to install or set up. Works just as I wanted it to.

Images are good just very disappointed on the battery. Can't have them without the solar charger. They die within a week give or take a couple of days.

Love these cameras. Bought this set for my mom. Battery life was questionable but I should maybe disarm more when home due to high animal traffic

Bought as an add on to my existing camera's. Spot lights aren't really all that great but let's someone know there being watched. They are much more sensitive than my older arlo camera's. Would definitely recommend to others
