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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!!!!

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

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.

Another fine product from SimpliSafe

Contrary to some of the reviews, I found this new outdoor camera from SimpliSafe to be just what I hoped it to be. My home security system is SimpliSafe, and after a couple of years of experience with them and their products, I am still a happy customer.
Before installing, be sure the battery is fully charged. If you don't already have the SimpliSafe app, you need to install it. When you have decided where to place the camera, the hardest part of the project, installing the magnetic mounting, begins... took less than 5 minutes. Attach the camera to the magnetic mounting...takes a second or so. Using the app, the final step is aiming the camera to cover the area you wish to monitor.
The camera works as advertised. The wide range of vision and sharpness of view is excellent. Mine is mounted over the door to my raised deck. It shows the entire deck, as well as either side and into the tree line about 30 feet away. For a entirely wireless operation, it works great.
Easy to install, works great, and competitive pricing makes for a nice package. For me, it's another great product from a brand in which I have total trust. Plus, SimpliSafe has excellent customer service should you need assistance on any products or service.
I definitely recommend it.

I have seen previous people list issues with this camera (particularly on other retail sites). We have not had any issues to date. The image is comparable to other outdoor cameras; wifi connectivity and some "blind spots" do exist, however, we believe simplisafe will continue to support the product with updates. Has performed well during the low 20s degree temps we've had locally as well. Would recommend
