Love this camera! It looks really clear and was easy to install. One thing I noticed was that it activates itself with sound. Sounds a little like dial up noise. Make sure not to set your volume up to high or the activation will fail. It took me 3 tries and found out the problem was that I had my volume set to the highest level and the sound was echoing around the room making it impossible to activate.

These cameras work so well. Easy to install and picture looks great on the cell phone.
It has a speaker and that’s a plus because I’m able to talk to anyone home while I’m gone.

I like this EZVIZ mini O indoor 720p wifi, it is great cam you can see as HD or standard video view as you want. On action alert is the most important for parent who use this Cam to see how your child sleeping. Two ways talk you can talk to baby and you hear baby crying or talking. I love it

I bought this EZVIZ indoor camera when it was 50% off for Black Friday. I wanted to catch my cat getting on my furniture. The camera is very easy to set up. Just download the app and scan the QR code and that was pretty much it. It took about 5 minutes. The picture is pretty clear in the day time. At night I can see things that are closer to the camera but it is still a good quality. I ended up buying the dvr system as well to record footage and bought the outdoor cameras as well because they were so easy to set up. You don't need to get a whole separate monitor like other outdoor camera systems. I can see all 4 cameras on the app at the same time through my phone. I can talk through the app- through the camera in the living room. It automatically records when it senses motion but I think my cat is very light footed. I have yet to catch her on my sofa even though I find her hair on it and the camera is set up right in front of the sofa. The app let's you take pictures in real time but you can only share them via facebook or google plus. Hope that changes in the future.

I always wanted to try a security camera for the home but I didn't want to spend to much money for one, until I can see what they actually can do. To my surprise, when I saw this on sale at $39, I had to buy one to check it out. After reading the instructions it sounded kinda of confusing. But When you actually do the set up, step by step as instructions tell you, the camera is set to go! The instructions that come with it doesn't tell you everything this baby can do. Once the camera is set up, you need to press the settings button to see a list of operational functions for it. Most all functions have a ON-OFF, you will see what I mean if you get one. It's pretty easy to use, once you get the hang of it. I put the camera to sleep when I am at home. When I leave, I wake it up and turn on the notification button. When these functions are on, you will get a message and buzz sound sent to your cell phone, telling you you have someone in your home. Camera will also automatically start recording, and you can see who is there as well when alarm on cell goes off. But you need a Micro SD card for it to record. I also like the 2-way speaker, meaning, when you have the sound button on, not only can you see them but you can also hear the person there and you can also talk back to them with a push of a button. It;s like using a walkie talkie. Night vision is Great, but you need to set the IR correctly, as you will see what I mean when you buy one of these Bad boys. I just purchased these a few days ago, and so far, Great! I bought 2 when they were on sale. I also wanted to see if I can view inside my home from a distant. I traveled to another town 50 miles away from my home and looked on my cell, turned on my app and was able to view inside my home. NICE! There are better ones, but of course will cost you more, but I was just lucky to purchase these on sale and I am very impressed and happy with these cameras. Anyways... I have NO PROBLEMS with them, they work GREAT!

I purchased this camera to watch my dog when I am not at home. It works great. I can speak to her and see what is going on in the room she is in. Easy to set up and it picked up the wifi in the house. Now I have downloaded the app as well to complete the process. Great price and wonderful camera for the price. The sound is great and the pictures are good quality. Happy with this purchase. Great buy for the money.

The set up is quite simple IF you read the supported wifi methods. This will only work on a 2.4ghz network. Once set up, the alerts can be a bit much, you can adjust the sensitivity and turn them off. The IFTTT integration is great. The sale posting says it has Google Assistant integration, but I've not been able to find ANY information on that. The fact that it supports RTSP is great, so it can potentially be integrated into your existing camera system. For this price point, I don't think it can be beat. The audio and speaker is really nice. I've held 2 way conversations with my son multiple times.

Setup was a breeze on my android.
Picture looks good and app behaves well (have been using for a couple of weeks).
Nice night shot in a room.
Only reason for missing star is misleading description for 2 way audio anywhere you are... couldn't get this to work unless I am on the same WIFI network as the camera (didn't try other WIFI networks, but I can only get incoming audio when I'm on the cellular network).

Good real-time camera

Pros:
-Video quality is good. Night vision is clear and concise.
-App is user friendly - Options to snap a picture of current view. Record current view. Zoom in. Time and date stamp on picture.
-Microphone option works well.
-Ability to send alarm sounds if someone is entering your house.
Cons:
-Set up- If your internet is a dual-band 2.4ghz/5ghz router you need to find a device to set this up on that connects to the 2.4ghz portion as that’s the only way the camera will connect to wifi. This was beyond daunting and frustrating. Managed to finally set up with an old tablet as all current devices default to the 5 ghz speed and I didn’t want to split up my networks and cause issues with other devices.
-Motion Detection Sensitivity – emphasis on the “Sensitivity” part. Even at the lowest setting, when nothing has created motion, the camera snaps a picture (I’m guessing light reflections may be causing this but based on wanting a camera near a doorway this is unavoidable). Then when someone is actually in front of the camera, there is a delay in snapping the picture and you only get a partial picture of the person.
Overall, If you’re using this to look at real-time footage (i.e. a baby monitor, pet monitor or to check on your house when you’re gone) this is a good little camera. If you're looking to snap a picture of a burglary in the act, I'd use another camera.

Set up was easy. I just scanned a code and entered my wifi passcode. I really like the feature where I can turn off the infrared lights AND the recording light through the app. I am using the camera through a window to capture package deliveries, so the reflection on the glass would be a problem with any camera with lights on the front. I liked that there is a stand and two ways to mount the camera. It can be placed on a wall with a magnet or screw mounted. The only complaint I have is there is an annoying offer for a trial cloud account on the app that cannot be removed, so I have to move it out of the way to operate some camera features. I wish there was something in settings to get rid of the ad. Also, not a complaint, but info for other users...it will not record (except a couple of seconds) without the memory card or the cloud subscription. So if you do not want to pay for cloud storage, just make sure you buy the storage card.

We got this home security camera to monitor the front of our property, particularly a pesky neighbor who thinks he can break every rule in the condo CC&Rs. The image quality is fantastic, and the app is super easy to use to set it up and monitor the situation remotely. I popped a micro SD card into it and it has been recording automatically whenever it senses motion. Caught me going out the door this morning, LOL. Highly recommend this camera over other brands.

Difficult to set up, but works well once connected

The EZVIZ Mini Indoor 720p camera was difficult to connect to my home's WiFi, but once set up, it works really well. After numerous attempts on both iPhone and Samsung phones, the camera never would connect wirelessly. As a last resort before returning it, I connected it via USB cable to my computer, and it connected beautifully. Once the connection was set, I was able to unplug the camera from my computer and use it wirelessly, as intended. The night vision works well, as does the daytime camera. The wide-angle lens is great; I can see both my front and back doors if the camera is positioned correctly. I do wish I could move the camera remotely, but at this price point, not being able to do that is not a big deal. The motion sensor is EXTREMELY sensitive, so it gets set off by little things (think "birds flying by the window" or "Christmas tree lights coming on"), so that's of limited use. It will certainly tell you if something's moving, but like the boy who cried "wolf," you'll get so many false alarms that you'll start to ignore them. I haven't tried using it with IFTTT yet, although with the overly-sensitive motion sensor, I'm not sure what use I'll have for the IFTTT applets. I haven't needed the microphone and speakers, although in a quick test of the speakers, I was able to tell that my husband was talking to me, but unable to make out what he was saying. If audio is important to you, I'd suggest finding another camera. But for the price, this camera does what I wanted it to do -- allows me to see what's happening in my house when I'm not there.

This camera is great for the price. I had trouble with the insignia camera so I came back to best u and exchanged fire this one. Setup took 5 minutes and the picture and the app are great. We got it just to talk to our dogs during the day. Perfect for what we needed.

Bought 2 of these as a gift for my sister to check in on her pets while out of town. Pretty easy to set up. It took a minute to figure out we needed to have the camera right beside the router for it to find the wireless signal but then were able to move it to the desired spot in the home. Has a speaker that allows you to talk to people or pets through OR to mess with the house sitter when they show up :)

I use this camera inside my home for security purposes. Video quality is good and field of view is very wide. The app is ok, had to google some questions to get camera working the way I wanted it to. The only problem is that every time it gets unplugged it resets and I have to reprogram it. Thus the four stars. H

Easy set up and operation. I like the two way option to talk.and the option to put the device in sleep mode when not in use. The remote operation of the camera is grate. I like also that it text me when motion is detected.
