    I was looking for a camera to monitor the main entrance of my apartment mainly due to security concerns during the day, this little camera is flexible enough that it can ble placed virtually anywhere to cover the best angle. The online monitoring features are good and you can setup alarms from movement, sound or temperature triggers. Good HD image quality.

    This is easy to set up and the review of a day is fast and easy! Highly recommend. You need a large upload capacity on your Internet connection as you add cameras as it takes about 1.5 mbps of upload speed per camera.

    What I like about this item is that it was easy to set up and use. The HD camera really had a wide view. I like the fact that you can remove the camera from the base.

    I bought two of these cameras for outside. Easy to setup and use, connects to Wifi and can be viewed from your phone or PC. Has Two built in batteries and direct power micro usb connection. Camera works day or night (night vision) can be set to detect motion, or temp outside. A case is need to protect from weather outside. I have one in the case and the other is outside in a protected area, works perfect. Picture is great, and you can zoom in while viewing.

    I like this camera however when using it as a portable camera the battery dies very fast even when fully charged but with its high picture quality you would expect that. The coolest feature about this camera is the way you can watch your day in one minute

    Decent camera for the price. Image quality is not as good as Canary camera but does same functions. Very few cameras do humidity and that was an important aspect for me. One advantage this has over canary is that it has ability to function on battery power alone and you can use it like a GoPro with the optional case

    This wifi camera is not bad for what it is. Unique features for its kind. I tried it out but returned it because it has its limitations as with any wifi cam. I rather go with a wired security cam system for overall better monitoring.

    If you want a camera that is going to record a lot of thing thru out the day the recap function is great it compresses several hours of video into a few minutes works really well. It also has a function to choose the area of the view that you want motion to be detected, and it records sound. It also has a temperature sensor but the camera gets so warm it does not work correctly. It has a battery but it really does not last very long, also includes a speaker but the operation is inconsistent.

    Set-up is a bit tough for those without a bit of tech savvy. Otherwise a great expandable device. Planning on adding more FX's to the collection

    Purchased this product as a device to keep eyes on home while away. Had others to choose from Samsung, and canery. This one stood out due to being a two way intercom and having a reliable app to view on my phone. App works fine with both apple and droid, and the infrared feature is worthy. The playback has a few second delay, and the cloud is basic unless upgrade for a fee, otherness awesome just has a few flaws that I mentioned above, solid buy!!!

    Had to call several times for operation information since there really isn't a manual with the camera. Still haven't figured if I can fast forward as I look for a specific event time.

    Got this camera but could never get it setup so I had to return it. During setup it would not connect to my wifi so I contacted tech support with no response. Found out from checking online you could reset it by holding down 2 buttons and then try the setup again but this never worked. Looks like a nice camera and I would have liked the battery side of it so I could use it anywhere

    My only complaint is that the instructions included were vague. I had to go online to get the full set of instructions. Had the instructions been included, I would rate it a 5.

    I purchased the Flit FX because the dual ability to be a survalance camera or a "Go Pro" type camera appealed to me. I haven't had a chance to use it outside of my home. However, I have set it up to watch my puppy in my house. I am disappointed that it drops the Internet connection frequently. If I'm away when it does this I can't get it online again until I come home and work with it. It looses internet connection about 25% of the time. If you are getting it for a purpose where survalence 100% of the time isn't necessary then it's a good buy. But if you need seriously reliable dependability ... I'd look else where.

    I was able to check the picture from the camera when I set it up and it is excellent. However, connectivity with the network seems to be an issue. I really do not know if the problem is with the camera or the wifi network, but everything else on the network works fine. I'm a little disappointed with that aspect, but trying to figure out a solution.

    Bought this New (NOT open box) on clearance. Now I FULLY understand why Best Buy is clearing them out. Best Buy returned gracefully, no problem with that, thankfully. Defective out of the box. 1. Base wouldn't charge at all, even after 24 hours. 2. Camera wouldn't power up with charger plugged into base, it just continually rebooted. 3. Camera, which is supposed to have it's own battery, also wouldn't hold a charge either...BUT; 4. With charger connected to camera, the camera would power up. 5. Setup (via android phone) was not smooth. It took 3 tries. Even though "cloud" icon was lit, software kept switching my phones wi-fi connection to the camera's direct wifi, which closed the internet connection, thereby failing to complete the install. Was ready to give up, but worked on 3rd try. 6. As I would expect, the unit wanted a firmware update. After it appeared to work fine (3-4 minute process), it IMMEDIATELY required the same update. Factory reset, go through entire setup hassle again, same result. Couldn't do much with the camera as it wouldn't allow me to get past the firmware update nag screen. 7. Their website help for this camera is practically non-existent. It took me 15 min to just find the full manual for it (instead of just quick start manual). 2 hours of my life wasted, what a PITA.
