    Got this on a sale. It works, dont get me wrong, but the live feed is pretty slow to load, the doorbell “calling” type feature is laggy to the point of being unusable, and is likely effectively useless without a subscription. That being said, it provides more security than nothing and the motion notifications are pretty nice.

    Quick install. Camera works well and view angle is great. App could be a little more user friendly and have more options that are customizable.

    I liked the wide viewing angle, but it's really slow to load up. By the time it loads, the thing that triggered it is sometimes gone (yes I have high speed Internet lol). There were also little blips that would be missing in the recording. I returned it and went back to ring. Less viewing angle, but loads faster.

    Battery operated has the best picture quality, battery has to be charged about every 4 months takes about 1 hr. and it is so simple to do....
