    Good Security Camera, easy to use
    5 Stars
    Good Security Camera, easy to use
    The camera provides excellent value with impressive battery life, lasting over one month on a single charge; Its resolution and wide viewing angle ensure clear and comprehensive coverage. The software interface of the App is also clear and easy to use, especially for older users like my parents. Thus, Long-lasting battery, clear night vision, easy installation, and intuitive UI software. Recommended for those seeking a dependable outdoor camera, especially do not want to charge it frequently, for front door monitoring and seamless integration into their smart home setup. Btw, if you want to keep in fully charging, try to install a solar panel with the camera; it is really simple to solve your charging problem.
