Verified purchase from Kooqie

I bought it for 55 euros and I can say that I was pleasantly surprised.

The package includes a USB cable, a charger (5 volts, 2 amps, 10 watts), screws with plugs, a mount to hang it on the ceiling, and a booklet with basic instructions.

I also bought a 64GB SD card (at least class 10 is required). You hold the camera and slowly rotate it upwards, and there is a slot where you insert the card. The application recognizes it and you can format it. Of course, you can also subscribe (3 euros/month for one camera or 10 euros for up to 10 cameras) through the application to have Cloud Storage.

The application allows you to connect multiple cameras and give each one a name so that you can choose what you want to see each time, for example, Living Room, Bedroom 1, Bedroom 2.

In addition to a microphone, the camera also has a speaker, which means that through the application, you can speak into your phone and be heard by the person in the room with the camera.

It detects not only motion but also distinguishes between pets and people. You can give it a command to follow wherever it goes (tracking).

You can also set a specific area, such as the couch in the living room, so that if your pet approaches, you can use a recorded voice message through the application to tell it, for example, "Jack, get down, GET OUT OF THERE!"

Although I intentionally don't have a baby, I stood behind the camera (so as not to be recognized) and played a baby crying sound from YouTube (crying detection). I immediately received a notification on my phone and it started recording.

When you connect through your phone, it also displays virtual arrows that you can move up, down, left, and right to adjust the camera's position. But it's easier to use the "360" button. As soon as you press it, the camera rotates completely so that you can see the entire room directly.

It has some preset profiles for when you are at home, when you leave home, or you can create your own.

When you set the profile that you have left home (Home away), the alarm is also activated. I set it to indicate that I had left home, walked slowly and quietly in the dark, and it detected me and the siren started sounding. It's not very loud, but it creates a noise, and at the same time, I received a notification on my phone that a person was detected in the room.

Of course, it also has night vision. As soon as I turned off the lights, it automatically activated. And the resolution is very good (one photo with the lights on, one with them off). As soon as I turned it on, it returned to normal recording.

Also, you can zoom in on the camera by using two fingers, just like zooming in on a smartphone for images.

In short, the camera and a good 64GB memory card will cost you around 70 euros, and you will be very satisfied with the many capabilities it offers.

The camera is fine but I am shocked because I cannot connect when I am using data!!!
While everything works perfectly with the home network, when I am outside it constantly shows that it is not connecting and the -3 as a problem.
Basically, it renders its use useless because you need it more when you are away, not when you are at home.
By going online, I saw many people facing the same issue.
I would appreciate some help because otherwise the camera is useless!

  For its price, I believe it is very good. Compared to a similar 6-year-old camera, it has minor differences in tracking capabilities, slightly better image quality, etc., unlike the audio transmission from the area, which is a bit lower in volume even though it is newer technology. I installed it on the ceiling, and it covers an apartment area of 45m2 with a good view even at the farthest points. It sends a lot of notifications when my dog moves, even while sleeping, at all sensitivity levels. In tracking, it loses track because if you pass in front of it quickly and exit its field of view, the camera freezes there and waits for you. It doesn't go to the calibration position, resulting in it not seeing any other movement in the monitored area again. It has everything you need in terms of settings, although I don't think the sensitivity levels change anything significantly.

  Purchased with the birth of our first child for exclusive use as a baby cam. We are 100% satisfied in every way. I have placed it above the crib and use an old phone as a monitor. It is very easy to connect to the phone. It has very good image quality during the day and at night in complete darkness I can still see if the baby is breathing. The extremely sensitive microphone picks up even when the baby changes sides. The cry detection with notification is quite useful, and with the pet detection feature, I know when our cats approach the crib. I have had it for 1.5 years and have never had any problems with disconnections. The only thing that troubled me was connecting it to the computer so I could use my computer screen as a monitor. With a little searching and using an Android emulator like Bluestacks, I can sit at the PC and keep an eye on it there too. For its price, it is fantastic

  Excellent image and software. However, as others have mentioned, after the 2nd year, it broke. At first, it starts not recognizing the SD cards, and then it crashes...

  The camera turned out to be an excellent choice and has been very convenient for monitoring our cat! It has a very clear image, even in the dark, which allows us to see the cat whenever we want, even at night. The connection was easy and the app is very user-friendly. Also, we can hear or talk to our cat when we are away, which is great for our peace of mind. Overall, this is a reliable and useful purchase that is worth the money!

  In the first year, it worked perfectly! Then the problems started... It wouldn't recognize the SD cards no matter how many I changed. Suddenly, we had to buy cloud storage. Then the disconnections started, and now we’ve reached the point where I can't even log in! Neither with WiFi nor with data!

  Unacceptable camera! Within a few weeks it started making noise in the sound and after a month it completely stopped connecting to WiFi. In communication with the store, they told me to remove special characters from the WiFi and that the noise I hear is interference... The interference, of course, as I said, did not exist from the beginning! Support, that is, as it suits us.
  Also, I am quite confused by its settings and the fact that through HomeKit I cannot control it fully. Whatever I try to do is hidden and I have to find it in the settings; in this, of course, both Apple HomeKit and the camera app are to blame. Regarding the Pan & Tilt feature, it is flawless, but what good is that to me..

  Initially, I was excited and bought a second one, but after 1.5 years of use, I had the following issues. Initially, the microphone stopped working on both cameras after a few months, so I had video but no sound. When the first one broke, I tried hard to fix it with a reset, etc., but I couldn't until the second one broke and I realized it's a general weakness of the product. Secondly, after a few months, I had issues with the cloud subscription where even though I paid, it didn't show me the recordings and essentially I only had the option of an SD card for video storage. However, if you are interested in monitoring the space when you are away, this makes no sense because anyone who enters can simply take the camera along with whatever it recorded.

  Very good image and as a camera it has many capabilities through its software. Relatively easy installation and use. I give it 4 stars because sometimes (rarely) the software shows me notifications that I need to format the SD card (which is not necessary in my case because I don't keep any video on the card). The response time (i.e. the notification that will come to your phone when the camera detects motion) is about 0.5-1 second (which also has to do with the internet speed).

  We bought 2 for the rooms of the house where the child moves. They worked well for the two years they had warranty. Then both of them left us. First one stopped playing and then the other stopped transmitting sound. If they are only for two years they deserve only 2 stars. What a pity!

  I have 6 of these at home.

  The positives:
  - good image and sound
  - decent night mode
  - even though it is sold as for indoor use, it can withstand a little rain on the balcony (it is quite protected where I have it but not 100%)

  The negatives:
  - two-way communication is NOT two-way. You press the button to record, release the button and send. While you are talking, you cannot hear what the other person is saying. The same goes for the first 2-3 seconds after sending. Overall, a VERY POOR IMPLEMENTATION of "two-way" communication, which in practice is NOT
  - unreliable motion tracking. Although there is an option in the settings to notify you if it detects movement from a person and/or pet, in practice it does not distinguish between them. I have enabled it to notify me only if it sees a person, and in practice it notifies me every time my cat passes by

  I bought two cameras for monitoring an elderly person. After a year of use, it remains amazing. Notifications for when it detects motion, recording of incidents, and the image in complete darkness could be better than during the day. An incredible camera that I highly recommend.

  Good camera for indoor use, with 360 rotation covering the entire room. The only downside (which maybe all cameras have, it's the first time I'm using one) is that it doesn't have good visibility of the floor unless it is tilted. And this is only because personally I got it to mainly see my little cat when I'm away. However, as a general visibility of the space, it is very satisfactory.

  Unfortunately, I did not have a good experience.
  In general, I frequently experienced disconnections while I was away from home and needed to check. Therefore, I had reliability issues, which is the number one factor for a surveillance camera.

  After 2 years, the reset button does not work, so I cannot reconnect it. I spoke to support and the only thing they suggested was to buy a new one with a 15% discount.

  As I mentioned, for me and I imagine for others as well, reliability is the number one factor. In this aspect, I am not satisfied at all

  While in the first year of operation everything was perfect, afterwards the sound in playback and live was lost. Also, I couldn't speak through the camera. After a lot of searching, I found that the problem was due to a software update. Since then, and after 1 year, the problem remains and even after the next software update, the problem persists. So, stay away.

  Suddenly, without any problem, it started and made a white noise from the microphone, and after 2 days it is dead! It doesn't capture sound and you can only see the image. You can't hear anything. So useless for security! And we haven't even closed the time!

  The microphone is very bad, it has noise and records videos with intermittent sound.
  Also, after 10 months, the two-way communication stopped working (they can't hear me when I speak through the App or through homekit). Yesterday it started constantly rebooting and it doesn't work. Luckily, it is still under warranty. I will update for further information. I do not recommend it under any circumstances.

  The camera is amazing. And even better is the service of Skroutz. The camera stopped working at some point. I sent a return request through Skroutz, a courier came and took it. They found out that it indeed had an issue and sent me a new one. Without any inconvenience. 5 stars for both the camera in terms of image quality and capabilities, and 5 stars for Skroutz's service.

  Better clarity than Tapo.
  By connecting to Apple Home, you lose many functions that it offers through the app.
  Motion and face detection still need some work, it sends you notifications for the slightest movement even at the lowest sensitivity.
  I still can't figure out how it saves the video after motion detection.
  Only time will tell about its durability..

  Very good camera, does what it promises. The application is very user-friendly, you can easily operate the camera from wherever you are. It continuously records or whenever you want, it has the option to record when it detects motion and send you the video (very good). And a very positive aspect is that it records the video a little before it detects the motion, so when someone enters my house, it sends me a video that starts when they put the key in the door to open it. I don't know how this happens, but it's very good. With a 64GB memory card, it's perfect. I bought one and I want to get a second one. The two-way communication works perfectly, I have had a dialogue with my father who was at my house while I was away. Just if someone unplugs it from the socket, I imagine it's over. If you want it for security, place it somewhere where no one can reach it, because the memory it stores is on it.

  The installation was very easy, the functions for this budget are impressive, and for about a week I was very satisfied. After a week, it went to do an update and that was the last time it worked. While the app shows it in the process of updating, it has been three days.. it lost internet connection, the solid purple light doesn't turn on, doesn't turn off, doesn't reset, doesn't change networks, doesn't do anything. It should be noted that it was simply placed on a shelf indoors, it wasn't hit or dropped, it just got stuck on the update. In the live chat support, I was informed that an engineer will contact me via email.

  I bought the camera a year ago and now it is only good for decoration. I have nothing positive to say, only negatives.

  - It freezes and the worst part is not that it freezes, but it freezes and the image freezes as well, and I mean you think it's working but it's not working. The time on the camera is stable, so you constantly need to check the time because you're never sure.

  - It doesn't record properly. Literally, someone can pass by in front of it and it won't record them, I really wonder about the comments and the audacity to call this thing a security camera.

  - Then, after about a year of use, it got the purple ring of death. In other words, the camera does nothing, it doesn't rotate, it doesn't turn on, it doesn't reset, it just turns off, both from the app and thank you for the $50.

  - Well, as for the service, it's a joke. Don't believe me? Just go to the eufy.support website and have a laugh with responses like "our product is amazing, just do a reset and it will fix it."

  Positive:

  - That I threw it away.

  Conclusion:
  If you have money to waste, buy it for sure. If you want a better camera, go for Xiaomi. They have slightly worse image quality, but at least they WORK.
