    Great, but you will want to get a solar panel battery charger, otherwise you will have to be without the camera while you charge the battery. Also, I have WiFi issues sometimes, but that could be my house.

    Very easy to set up. So far the battery seems to last long. Just be sure to follow the instructions on maximum height limits. As always success depends on your homes Wi-Fi range. Probably would have given 5 stars if the price was better.

    This camera works wonders!!! It captures clear pictures and I also have the ability to speak to folks, if necessary. Now that I have a backup battery, I never run out of camera time.

    Works as advertised and easy to set up. I had to order a sturdier mount from another website (Buy Buy nor SimpliSafe had it). Does come with powerful magnetic mount though.

    Cameras are good quality and follow up customer service time when alarm goes off. Better than arlos in my opinion and better resolution 1080 HD. Best performance from a cordless security system and battery life is definitely a plus. Simplisafe assures their products and will swap out and deliver for free no questions asked. 5 stars!!!!

    The field of view is great, but the night vision, without the spotlight on, is lacking. I also don’t like that it’s a magnetized mount. It’s very easy to remove and/or steal.

    It complies with all its functions, the only bad thing is that the battery lasts very little time since it is a security system, it should last longer

    Not worth the money. Unfortunately, like other reviewers I was excited when Simplysafe come out with this camera. Their home alarm system works great but these cameras are the worst, 75% of the time they won’t connect to the internet, the router is 22ft away from one and about 26-28ft from the other and I constantly get cameras offline and unable to connect. When they do connect (live view) the response time (20-30 seconds) it takes to wake is horrible. Also the battery life isn’t great (2 months or so). Very disappointing and a big waste of money.

    The charger is not usbc. Charging port seems flimsy. I upgraded my internet but still get drops regularly. I have to wake up the camera to view. This is not set up to provide continuous feed. The alarm sound is low. It works in that I receive a text alerting me when someone is near my house. It blinks so I am sure that detains some burglars. The monthly fee isn't high. I am not sure I would purchase the system if I could do it over.

    We have a whole house SimpliSafe system and keep adding sensors and cameras from time to time. I like these cameras a lot and always get the AC power cord accessory as then I never have to recharge the outside camera batteries. I have also found Simplisafe's cutomer service to be top notch.
