Roberts: I purchased the camera because of its size and appearance as it will be placed over the front door of my townhouse. Setup was easy after I ignored the instructions to reset the camera by pressing the power button twice. Kept getting message, "Wifi connection failed," even after reading QR code, checking wifi SSID and password and going through the setup again and again. Instructions say press power button twice to reset, but that clearly didn't work. I had to press and hold the power button until I heard the chime. That turned the camera off. To turn the camera on, I held the power button until I heard the "Ta Da" sound. After that, setup went smoothly. Picture quality is good for a small camera. It's clear and color is fine. Have no information about the battery life. I suspect I will have to add a USB power source to continuously charge the battery. It would be easier than climbing a ladder to remove the camera for charging. In testing, motion detection seems quite sensitive even from the side and sensitivity set on the lowest setting. I'll see how it works to view people coming to the front door and possibly deterring the "porch pirates."

Janae BibbsJanae Bibbs: So my story is that I just got my first apartment and I wanted a camera that I could see in REAL TIME without a subscription. I almost spend $200 on a Ring Spotlight camera but got talked out of that. Almost spent $100 on a Arlo camera because my dad has those and doesn't need a subscription. But they had way too many bad reviews of having the charge the camera too much.
So I came across this one while searching at work. Some of the reviews put me off but the ones that had pictures of the video and sound, made me want to try it out. Setting it up was easy. Installing it onto the door was also easy. So far, I've had it mounted and on for 6-7 hours? The battery life is amazing. As I'm typing this, it's on 85%. I'm sure maybe in a week or two I'll have to charge it but that's fine. I can do it on a day I'm off. Simple simple. The camera quality and sound is AMAZING. it's as good as it can be for a $50 "no brand" camera. I had to bypass the notifications to ignore my Do Not Disturb so I know if someone is at my front door.
My only complaint is that in order for it to record and SAVE video by itself if someone shows up and you don't check in time to see who's at the door,...

lpirklelpirkle: I am very pleased with this camera. It was packaged nicely and very securely. Compared to the older version of the security camera, this one has a wider picture of view and a sleeker overall design. The installation was very quick. It probably took all of about five minutes because you don’t have to fool with wiring. I like that the app allows you to customize how sensitive the motion detection is based on your needs. Overall the app runs very smoothly and is easy to navigate. I have it installed on one Apple device and one Android device and it works well on both. I purchased a separate SD card in order to store video on the app. I think this is a great addition in order to use the camera and app to its fullest potential. For the older version of the security camera, I went six months before it needed another charge. I’m thinking this camera will have the same battery expectancy, but cannot say for sure because we haven’t had it that long yet. When the camera is due for a charge, it is very easy to unscrew the camera from the mount and replace once fully charged.
The only change I would wish to see is that the silicone port cover would be attached to the camera in a...

Thorsten H. Spehn: Great camera for the money. I have had two of them running for about 3 years. The charge holds for about 2-3 months. Get a memory card so that you can record events without the odious subscription rates of other cameras. You'll have your money back within a year. Motion detection is very responsive with very few false alarms. The Ardorcam app takes a little long to display on the phone and the voice intercom is not so great. I am using this as supplementary to a Ring Door Bell to cover different areas of my house. Easy to set up and durable. I once was able to get a misplaced package back: The camera records the event and time. I was able to have my postman find a package that he had accidentally checked in and delivered to someone else by telling him that his package check-in time and his appearance at my door without a package differed by about 5 minutes. I am buying another one today and thought that I'd share my generally positive experiences. One more thing: You may have to do a hard reset of the camera after a full battery drain by pushing and holding down a pin in the tiny reset hole.
