Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Well as the reviews have said its ok. Liked it at first but now wondering whether to return. Its great in the fact that its completely wireless but I also believe that to be its downfall. Especially touting the long battery life. To me its more like a deer camera with the ability to upload the footage. And I dont know if a deer camera triggers better than these or not. I purchased this for the low maintenance and battery life and easy set up. Did I get that? So far yes. Its true when someone complains about something you should listen though because this equipment does have its downfalls. I'm going to try to list the pros and cons as simple as I can. Pros: Battery life - So far only had a month. Wireless Easy to set up Runs on AA batteries Video quality Cons: Night time- Things look white so its basically useless identifying someone that is too close. Recording- As others have stated it catches like the last bit of footage by the time it turns on. i.e. I could walk up to my garage leave the garage and it will start recording on the way out. (YES I HAVE ADJUSTED THE ALMOST USELESS SETTINGS) Settings- The sensitivity is either too much or not enough there really is no fine tuning ( I believe a good update could fix this) The fact that its wireless- I believe this limits alot and creates most the issues as far as recording comes i.e. it not being on all the time. UPDATE: 9.4.18 The 2 years battery life is a lie from the manufacturer, I don't know what kind of testing they did to verify that. I purchased this item on 2/28/18. I installed a few days after that. As of 9/3/18 I got a message that my carport camera is offline the batteries died. Why bc thats the only camera that gets triggered a few times a day. The company must want you to install these cameras where there is little to no use whatsoever. All I get are notifications about high usage. Like duh thats what the camera is for to monitor things. They want you to have the cameras off when your home and on when you leave. The app actually suggests these things... crazy. Now you guys get a one star just for the free cloud storage. And btw the mounts are horrible. Update: 2.27.19 Tomorrow marks a year. I have it still Bc I bought it lol. I tried some yi indoor cameras that are absolutely garbage, so garbage you can’t leave reviews on yi cameras bc amazon has it blocked out. I think I should have definitely bout another name brand system. All my batteries on low area mounted places are still good and haven’t been replaced. Carport camera has been at least 5 sets within a year.
