    Easy to setup and use. Comes with spotlight. Battery doesn't last as long as stated time, but other than that it works well

    I would say the cameras are pretty expensive but so are other brands. The downside I have to them is you have to pay a monthly fees after 3 free months. I would say, it was my mistake that I didn’t read the box and found out too late to return it. Cameras detect everything like leaves moving and that drains the battery really quickly.
