I really like this product! Really recommended if you want to follow a fixed location and at the same time keep an overview of moving objects that are detected from far away.

I tested this IP security camera for a few weeks and while there are strong points, there are also clear shortcomings.
Image quality The camera performs well in terms of image quality. During the day, the images are clear and sharp, and at night the infrared mode provides detailed images. In terms of visual performance, the camera certainly meets expectations.
App The app is less impressive. The design is confusing and the option to switch between Standard and Advanced hardly adds anything. If you want to keep the app open continuously to watch live, you will regularly receive a message whether you are still active. This makes it cumbersome to use and limits the convenience for those who want to keep a constant eye on things.
RTSP Stream A major drawback is the lack of RTSP streaming. This means that you cannot connect the camera to a NAS, Home Assistant or other local storage solutions. Users who want control over their images will find this to be a major limitation.
Sound quality The sound quality leaves much to be desired. Conversations or other ambient sounds are often difficult to understand due to the poor microphone. For example, the sound of a passing car sounds distorted and loud. The camera clearly falls short for reliably recording audio.
Security Another concern is that the video stream runs entirely via the internet. This raises questions about privacy: who can watch along, and how secure is the data? Without RTSP, you are dependent on the manufacturer's cloud solution, which is a major disadvantage for me.
Conclusion Although this camera offers strong image quality, the poor user-friendliness of the app, the poor sound quality and the lack of RTSP streaming make it difficult to recommend. In addition, the dependency on a cloud service raises concerns about privacy and security.
If you are mainly looking for sharp images and accept the cloud solution, this is a great choice. But for those who value flexibility and control, there are better alternatives available.

We tested this security camera for our new-build home and are very satisfied. Installation is easy with the accompanying app and you can connect via Wi-Fi or a fixed internet connection. The app is very user-friendly, which makes it very pleasant to use. The camera provides a clear image, even at night, thanks to the built-in LED lighting that provides sufficient light when detected. All in all, an excellent choice for those looking for a reliable and effective outdoor camera.
