Used this camera for watching the baby sitter and to watch my wife's late grandmother at a nursing home with bad dementia. The video quality is great and the ability to talk to the person on the other end is a plus. There were issues with my android phone connecting to the camera though I downloaded the app. Wife's IPhone had no issues ever. I upgraded my phone from a 6 to a 9 plus and amazingly no connection issues. Would recommend this as an inexpensive camera...its bigger and not easily concealed but never needed it for that anyway so it made no difference to me...served it purpose well

The D-Link Wi-Fi camera is easy to setup and use. You can plug it in any room. This is great if you need to keep track of certain areas in your house, for example, to check on your sump pump. When on vacation, you can easily check. There is an option to listen in and a speaker to use . It is easy to rotate in the 320 degrees in all directions. The infrared lighting works great - no need to have lights on. Great price!

Configured easily once the app was down loaded but instructions were kind of poor but having cameras from other vendors and their problems resolved made it simpler. Do note that it states cloud support but it costs money, best to buy a memory card to store events detected.

Bought to keep an eye on an elderly parent while not at home, and liked it so much that I bought another. No monthly fees, great audio, clear instant video, record to cloud, pans entire rooms, zooms in, easy and fast connect, and very quiet. The only drawback is the cord plug in, so being discreet or finding certain locations to place device slightly limited.

On the first week after installing my friend & I were watching workers in my apt. from another location via the camera & caught one of them going through my dresser drawers actually touching my undergarments in a very creepy manner. I couldn’t get the camera to record this so I am glad I had a witness & that is my only complaint - the set up could be easier & more user friendly. I have another dlink can that was much easier to set up than this one. The overkill with features is confusing. I just want a simple set up that allows me to monitor & record. Its working right now but it took me a bit to figure this out. There isn’t a clear direction for WiFi vs cellular & I used up all my cellular data in having it set up wrong. All in all worth the money though.

It has audio and video recording.. it rotates, so you can rotate it from your phone app. It also works in the dark. Good for surveillance. Purchased it to keep on eye on my pets, and loved it. It also has a speaker built in.. so if you want to say hi to pets or creep out an intruder you speak from your phone app and it will deliver your voice message immediately.

I have 2 of these in my office. They allow me to be away from work and still see and hear everything clearly, without the hassle of a big security system. Great price for what you get.

This camera was easy to set up and the tech support is excellent. We set it up on our I-Phones and can monitor our home when we are not home. We also set a camera up by our pets food bowls and monitor to make sure our cats are eating and drinking when we are away. Switching between the two camera’s is easy. The cost is far and I recommend these camera’s. for inside the home use.

This camera is great. The notification settings range from super paranoid to I just want to watch my cat. The near 360 degree ability is amazing and easy to control. The picture quality on all of my devices is amazing. I have android and my partner is all apple. We use it on our phones (note9 & iphone 7) tablets and computers. The picture looks great on all of them. The cameras app doesnt like my samsung 2 in 1 plus the newer model I'm not sure why it kicks me off as soon as I log in. But the main reason I rated it 4 out of 5 is the size of it. It's to large to hide it or even really mount it to the wall. Which it does come with a wall/cieling mount. It's simply too large.

This is the ONLY 1080 camera I've seen that comes in at this price and has pan and scan. I bought this so I could talk to and see my handicapped wife while at work or in the other room.
I've not used it as much as I expected I would but at least I have it. Image is good, it responds to position commands pretty well, somewhat confusing since it hangs from the ceiling and the reverse setting doesn't seem to flip the inputs for left right also.
There are 4 presets plus home, so if you set those up it helps a lot. I think net lag seems to make two way talk awkward, though I've rarely used it. So the interface software might need some work but the camera is quite nice.

On the most part I purchased this product so I can see what my dog is up too while I am out. The app was easy to set up and use. I like the tilt, scan and zoom feature. It really helps to find my dog. Also the alerts are a nice security feature. Plus’s we sold our house and I could take it with me to my new home.

I use this to check in on my cats. It's nice and clear,and rotates so I can see more of the patio. I can talk to the cats and hear what is going on. I just wish the picture was bigger.

The camera shows a nice pic and Pans, Tilts, & Zooms as expected. It is set up and controlled via the phone app ONLY!. That is really inconvenient. The interface is a bit confusing and obtuse- not intuitive at all. The first one I got could not connect to the wifi as described but the replacement worked as described. Note that multiple networks (5G, Guest, etc) can confuse it. There is no realtime interaction beyond the two lights on the front.
Once connected and configured, it does the job well.

I bought this camera to keep an eye on my dog who stays in a pen downstairs. It works well as far as the video quality and features, but has a couple of faults that bug me. I like to use the Auto Nightvision feature, but it seems to take a lot of bright room light to keep it out of night vision. Also it frequently takes a long time to load the image when I first open the D-Link app on my iPhone. This may be because I haven't had it that long and with some consulting with the vendor I may solve these issues. Overall a good buy though, and the price was right.

Pan and Tilt features are great. Can see the entire surroundings. No need for multiple cameras. The video resolution and the audio are good. No need to worry about the privacy. The videos can be stored on the device itself using a MicroSD card. As far as I know, it supports 128 GB card . Maybe more than that supported. Not sure of the max size.

We installed this camera for our baby room. You can move the camera around remotely and the night vision is superior than most baby monitors. You can listen to the room and you can also talk back. You can also watch through their app on your phone.

This security camera is great, using the app while away from home is easy and you can tilt/pan to see different views. Makes me feel safer as well!
