wansview WiFi IP Baby Camera, 2K Wireless Home Security Camera Q5 for Baby, Elder, Pet Camera Monitor with Real-time Alert, 2-Way Audio Night Vision Pan Tilt Zoom, Works with Alexa (Black)

Hi Guys and LadiesI bought this camera after reading the reviews and thought, yeah it sounds Good. The camera is pretty Good. Good quality and a Good clear picture at daytime and the night vision is really Good. Setting up is pretty easy....well mine worked the First time, even though i had to keep camera by router while pairing the Device with the Wi-Fi. Once I had set it up and downloaded the Wansview App it soon became clear that it wasn't for me....you have set up a monthly prescription of $6.99 for using the Cloud service ( your first month is free ). I'm not into paying for something you can get free, if you just get a proper CCTV Camera it will connect to your Wi-Fi and record on a DVR.I know it's just a small camera but so not worth it for me. Just extra cost very month for the Cloud service, and its service is from Hong Kong 🤔.I used the camera in my porch for a few days and then I couldn't get the camera to connect to my Wi-Fi. Went through all trouble shooting and stil can't get it to connect back to my Wi-Fi. I cancelled all my future prescriptions/payments, and will be returning the camera.Overall it's a Good camera but the Cloud service is not for me.Hope my review has helped 🤓

I’ve decided to increase security in my home, and to do this I have purchased this Q5 Dome Wifi camera which is offered by Wansview.The camera arrived well packaged and contained a long USB cable, power adapter and fixing mechanisms in case you want to mount the camera to the wall or celling. I have not done this but instead just placed the camera on a piece of furniture.Camera is nicely designed and seems good quality.Very easy to set up, this involved plugging it in and then following the in-app instructions to connect it to your home wifi network. Instruction booklet is provided, which is easy to follow.Picture quality is very good at 1080p. To put this in context, if you have the original Ring video doorbell, this camera is much better quality. See sample captures.Night vision is a bonus, and also good quality as you can see.Digital zoom is also available.I had previously been using my Amazon Echo Spot to “drop-in” and keep an eye on my home. This wifi camera provides a better and easier way to do this instead, and also has a two-way communication function. This means you can speak to anyone who’s in the range of the camera, and they can speak back to you.The camera has the ability to tilt vertically 80 degress up and down and horizontally 320 degrees left and right (you control this via the app). The lens is wide-angled with a range of view of 105 degrees.When motion is detected you receive a notification via the app. You can then see ten second video clip of the detected motion.The camera also supports memory cards up to 128gb, and can therefore store recordings for a long period of time. A month-long trial to the cloud service is provided, which offers extra peace of mind and also an ability for you to access recordings from anywhere in the world. So you have a lot of choice on how to view any alarm events the wifi camera detects.All in all, I’m very impressed with this wifi camera. At this price as well it’s an absolute bargain!

I don't like devices that need an account before they'll work. Until one was created, this device didn't even show on my network.I don't like devices that will only work with their own bespoke software.I don't trust apps that need my location before they'll work, or use a cloud (DigitalOcean & Alibaba seen) when I've selected no cloud.Disappointed with this. Even the pan–tilt–zoom function is laggy & inaccurate.

What a load of rubbish. Drips off all the time. Don’t believe all the fake reviews. My friend bought one as well and has the same problems. When it rarely does work it’s very juddery and slow at responding. A complete waste of money.

This camera is great. The wide angle gives us alot more viewing which we love, as we don't really have use the console much. Notifications are quick, and the quality of the camera is good, not grainy. Night vision again is clear, the picture quality is alot better than our previous camera. The ability to change the sensitivity you want for the motion detection is again, a plus for us. We didn't need it on high to get the results we require.However there are a few downsides to this camera.Point 1- I'm techie and even this was a pain in the backside for me. We may want to look at the camera at different times and everytime we have to put the password in - which is time consuming. So we switched to the gesture thinking yeah it would be easier. Its just as long winded as you have to select the more option to use the gesture when you want to login. The app won't just have it on the screen after you have made the changes. In todays society speed counts along with ease of use.Point 2 - storage. I have an sd card as I don't see the point in cloud storage when the card will suffice. Wansview have been "tricky" or "clever" depending on your standpoint, in not only offering battery AND cloud storage at a price to user but also have no option to extend the recording time on your own sd card. So you need to purchase cloud storage in order to have full clip and not just 10 secs. So you can appreciate from a security point of view, you may need to look at another camera or calculate storage costs into purchasing camera. For both these reasons alone, I am giving this camera 3 stars. If Wansview wants to update their app to make improvements, these two areas really need look at.
