Pros and cons

According to our IP camera expert

Thanks to the 4-megapixel resolution, the footage of this camera is sharper than that of cameras with a Full HD resolution.
When it's dark, you can have clear footage from up to 30m distance.
With the SD card slot, you can store footage directly to this camera.
You need a good WiFi signal where you're installing the camera. You can create a strong WiFi network near your camera with a WiFi extender.
The SD card to store footage isn't included by default.

Description

The Imou Bullet 2 4MP is a security camera that you can use to guard an outdoor space and to scare intruders. This camera has a built-in spotlight and loud siren. It also has multiple night vision modes, which includes a mode to record in color while it's dark out. Thanks to the 4-megapixel resolution, the camera footage is of higher quality than Full HD footage. The camera distinguishes people from animals, so you won't receive a false alarm. Even in the dark, you can see pretty well up to 30m distance. You can store the footage in the cloud (a subscription is required), on a network video recorder, or on an SD card. If you want to include the camera in your smart home, you can connect it to Google Assistant or Alexa.

Review is 9,5 out of 10.

Easy installation & compatible with Synology!

Clear picture
High resolution
Easy to install
No

After using 1 for a few months, bought a 2nd. For the driveway and backyard. Works great with my Synology DS918+. Easy to install. Configure 1x with the Imou app, then everything via Synology.

Review is 8,0 out of 10.

Good picture, software could use some work

Clear picture
The external antennas
RTSP option
Human detection thinks that rain is human too

The camera provides a clear image, you can set everything in the app. Detection zone, sensitivity, night vision mode and more. Also has a detection function to register people, but in practice it doesn't work that well; he reacts to people, but also to rain, shadows of swaying bushes, and flies. This produces large numbers of false notifications, so it is better to disable your notifications from the Imou app.

The app is a bit of a 'hit or miss' since it doesn't contain all setting options, and they really want to sell you the cloud storage (with recordings you have to press the sd card icon first before you can see the local recordings). You can find more setting options by installing the dahua toolbox on your PC and using the ConfigTool from there to access the more technical settings of your camera. It's all a bit cumbersome and could have just as easily been done with a web interface (which the outdoor Turret camera does have).

Installing is very easy. Scan code on the camera with the app, go through a few simple steps, and the camera is added. Then you make a hole in the wall, push the cables through, and insert the plug into the socket. Note that it has an RJ45 connector, and you have to make a nice hole for it. You can also use a simple cable box to mount the camera, or the special Dahua box to neatly hide the cables.

Another handy function: you can also display the image from the camera in, for example, vlc player on the PC, by means of an rtsp stream.

All in all, a great camera for this price, whose software is a bit off.

Review is 9,0 out of 10.

Top camera, which outperforms more expensive competition.

Better bedding quality than competition
Cloud storage €3 p/m
No sd card required
Network connector on cable too thick

The image quality of the Imou bullet is really very good. It's 2k image, and you can really see that. The bitrate cannot be set and fluctuates quite a bit. The image is therefore occasionally a bit more blocky, but that does not affect the quality. It's just a shame that the camera's cable has a large network connector. I had to cut it off to get through the wall, it wouldn't fit even through a junction box outside. The bullet 2 has a wider field of view than the 2S, other than that they are identical. The bracket for hanging it up can only be turned at an acute angle from 1 side, so you have to be careful when attaching it. With a cloud subscription of €3 per month you can watch all recordings made by the camera everywhere for 7 days, you don't even need an SD card.
