Value for money
Purchased this to cover my back garden and I have to say I’m not disappointed. Easy to install but would say I had to use a WIFI booster to get a decent signal. This is probably not the cameras fault though but something to bare in mind if looking to buy.
Picture quality considering it’s connected via WIFI is really good, just remember to switch from SD to HD for the better quality. Functions are fantastic and all easily accessible via the App on your phone.
My only negative would be the motion detection, it has smart human recognition and you can crop the frame to an area where you would like it to detect from, however the camera picks up anything and often things you can’t even see or would notice like grass moving, the rain can set it off, the pegs on your washing line and so on. I now have to turn the notifications off on an evening due to how sensitive it is because I end up waking up to 70+ warnings. This is annoying as the idea is to have a camera that detects human motion only.

A good all round CCTV camera with motion detection.
Overall, these are nice cameras. The app can be downloaded to your phone or pc (and android TV in my case). Works well, the motion sense is accurate and the camera follows any movement (this can be turned off). Night vision is good quality and the microphone feature works well.
The one thing I would recommend is that you connect the camera to your home network with an ethernet cable whilst setting it up. On wifi the camera could not be recognised but as soon as I connected with a cable it could be set up. Once set up it flips to wifi as soon as the cable is disconnected. No issues with drop outs or losing wifi connectivity.

Does exactly what it says on the box
Bought a few of these to install around the house just before we took off for the summer holiday. The cameras arrived promptly, well packaged. The design and quality of the materials look sturdy, should have no problem withstanding the elements. The box includes everything you need, down to the network cable. Installation was very simple (as long as you have electricity and WiFi where you need it), all cameras work well together on one app.
So far no issues, will follow up if I see any.
Help from Echo to connect to new phone
Here is a photo of the camera I purchased. I ordered it on Amazon and it was delivered a few days later. It is easy to understand the instructions and to fix to the wall. Once in place the picture is amazing, especially with the motion detection. I can replay, pause and screenshot anything I need to. The app on my phone is brilliant. I can watch what is going on outside my home from anywhere.
I have had a couple of questions to ask the Ctronics Support here and they replied straight away, asking for the details of my camera and once they had that they were able to help me and solve my problem
I would recommend this camera to anyone.
The only small fault I have (and this is my fault, not Ctronics) is that I did not insert a big enough memory card and plan now to buy a 64 GB one
Excellent CCTV camera
This camera is excellent! PTZ Control via the app isn’t the smoothest but it works. Great picture and superb night vision (ensure its set to auto)
When setting up, connect a lan cable to the camera then set up WiFi. After this remove the cable and it will work on WiFi. I also recommend a powerline TP link nano to give the camera the signal boost it needs (indoor placement only)
Easy set up and adjustable camera view
This camera is very good for the price as my previous ctronics was fixed and more expensive.I use this as a door camera but can scan the front of the house and zoom in to a certain area.I did not use the set up instructions included, but found the set up easier from my original ctronics camera.Overall good value for the money.
Great price motion detector not good
Works well good price took motion detector off as it only lasted a month I have it just fixed to one position so works well as stationary camera. Motion detector never did follow image that good anyway even walking slow so if someone ran past it wouldn’t keep up
Security and entertainment altogether.
It is in my garden attached to my summer house. It acts as a security camera, which I can watch on my phone and I also watch all the birds and other creatures visiting my garden. A real lovely item.
Camera was easy to setup and seems good quality
This camera seems to be high quality and was very easy to set up. The image quality is 1080p and the camera can easily be moved via the app. The night vision gives you the option of using invisible infrared light to see or using regular white light to see the image in colour. Visability at night is very far with a road 50 meters from the camera clearly visable. Shown is a screenshot of the app prior to the camera loading(usually takes at most a couple seconds)(screenshot was taken prior to loading for privacy reasons) where the different functions are clearly visible.
Simple to set up.
Everything just worked as described in the manual. Very easy to use and images are perfect. The only thing that threw me is that there was a gland included, presumably for an outdoor cable box, but without cutting the cable or removing it so warranty was useless it became redundant. Signal quality is far better than the previous camera was. Good piece of kit.

Good quality inexpensive camera
Bought this to keep an eye on our cat who is confined to the back garden. Although the motion detection feature doesn’t work too well with her, it works fine detecting humans. Very easy to set up and control via the app with an excellent picture. Also works very well with camhi pro app. Have now bought two.
Security assured
The overall performance of the camera is very good, the night vision is very clear with the ability to view different angles ensures that all aspects are covered. The illumination at night is excellent I am very pleased with it’s performance generally
I'm watching you!
For the price this is well specced. Performance is as expected and setting up was simple enough for anyone with reasonable knowledge
Great cctv
It is fairly easy to connect to the router.
Pictures quality is good.
Range seems OK.
Had mine for about 6 weeks now and no problems.
Down side is it does pick up on passing traffic and wind blown trees. Not sure the facial recognition is that good but it certainly picks up and follows moving objects.
Night Vision is good.
Easy to fix to wall or whatever, (2 screws) then 12v supply (230 v transformer)
I had the 10m power extension which makes life easier.
Great camera
This is a great little camera for those who want a simple to use, easy to set up security camera. The picture quality it’s brilliant and motion detection even followed my dog round the room while I was having a play the camera! Obviously there are better cameras available, but unless you’re guarding the crown jewels, I personally think this one does exactly what it’s supposed to do!
I’ve now purchased three of these and I highly recommend them

Good value, good quality
Bought this camera as a cheaper but more useful version of some of the big brand ones. The auto tracking and the ability to move the camera is very handy. Quality so far is good and it’s relatively easy to set up. A strong WiFi signal is required for a stable connection but the camera has an ethernet port if you can get a cable to it. Micro SD card is required to save videos and photos. You can receive emails to tell you of activations and sometimes the app gives you a notification. All in all its a good job not seems to be worth the price.
Good value
Does everything it states. Night vision is good unless it rains. First one is a bit complicated to install but once you’ve worked it out makes the next ones easy. Had about 3 months now with no issues. Wine a free one with the promotion in the box. Arrived quickly. I havent used motion detection on it. Alerts need to be at lowest scale or every month or rain at night triggers a email alert if you have it set up to do that.
Great Camera however app and Web UI Lacking and Outdated
Overall the camera is great for the money, The image quality is very good and clear both day and night however I have found the app to be very glitchy and the web interface does not work in newer browsers on Windows and Mac

Great Camera
I brought this camera as a neighbour brought one and I was impressed with the quality. I am very impressed my the ease of use and the quality of the image. I would like a humanoid setting on mine as it is not there. All in all a great easy to set up and use security camera. A good buy and highly recommended.The customer support team have been very responsive by email.
Extra cameras
I bought one of these while I was waiting for my garden to be secured. I was so impressed that I picked up two more to be able to see all around my property. A good price. They are pretty much the same as the first one. Great vision and responsive. However there have been a few issues with disconnection which is very frustrating. On the positive side I am so speedy at deleting and resetting the device now! I spoke to Amazon about the issue and they were very supportive and checked that I had done everything correctly. They also contacted the company too. I did yet another reset and it has been working since. I think it may be an issue with my wifi too as I have problems with other Wi-Fi connected products dropping out too. I now have BT booster discs which hopefully will sort this problem.
Great cameras - much better than expected. Great value.
I have four Ctronics CCTV Wifi Security Cameras installed around the outside of my house. It makes me and my family feel safe because at any time we can see if anything is happening outside and if we hear a noise, we can take a look. Wherever we are, the email function sends an image to our phones whenever movement is detected or someone or a vehicle comes onto our property. With the ‘four pictures’ view I can see all views on one screen which makes viewing very quick and convenient.
There are many other things that we like:
– We can see where our cat and dog are in the garden and what they are doing.
– We can call them by using the microphone function.
– With the sound un-muted, we can hear the birds singing.
– We can check that the garage doors are closed without going outside.
– We know when the postman arrives.
I mounted two of the cameras on a corner of the house (using plastic corner brackets that I made) and ran the power supply wires down the back of a drainpipe – see photo – and through a hole I drilled in the wall to a convenient 13-amp socket inside the house.
Like others have reported, I initially had problems setting the cameras up but this was mainly a case of getting familiar with the technology. By carefully following the instructions I found it quite straightforward in the end.
There is an extensive, very useful and easy to use menu which gives control of many of the functions.
All aspects of the Ctronics brand including their products, website and support seems first class.
I am really pleased I bought these particular cameras which are one of my best ever technology buys!

Fantastic Value
So many features for the money. Using as ONVIF camera with my DVR/NVR. I like the auto tracking feature and PTZ. The spotlight feature is also great but I don’t need this for the location of the camera. Pictures and colour are superb. Would recommend If you need a small discreet PTZ camera to cover a large area. I’m using it with WIFI connected to my wireless router which is wired to my DVR/NVR and have no issues.

Excellent camera, software needs a little work, have already bought another so thumb up:)
I am very impressed with this camera that I’ve purchased two so far with a third on the way due to some of my property being far away from a mains plug the fact that it’s 12vdc allows me to run it off a car battery and a solar panel for data I’ve used a raspberry pi and a mobile data add on card. Ctronics if you read this, I would recommend producing some kind of add on kit for a more streamlined approach to setting the camera up in remote places. I can’t recommend this camera enough at this price. The only room for improvement would be to give the motion sensing software a bit of an overhall as I have bird’s nesting near-by that have rendered this function unusable
Much better than I was expecting
I paid under 30.00 for this camera, so truth be told, I wasn’t expecting too much. When it arrived, it was well packaged and looked very impressive for the money. The first problem was the sd card cover, because you push the sd card in, till it clicks and holds, if you then push the silicone cover over it, it releases the sd card, but with a bit of fiddling you can get it on without releasing the card. Don’t bother setting up the wifi just with you phone as it is flaky at best, just download the app to your phone, plug in the Ethernet cable provided into the back of your router, then into the camera, follow the instructions and you can enter your wifi details manually. once this is done disconnect the Ethernet lead and it will connect to the wifi. I have a few cameras, Blink, Yi and Victure, all of which were easier to set up, but none of which offer the value this one does. Good quality images SD or HD, notifications, night colour image (this is only due to constant bright leds) so I just use the auto setting which uses IR and turns on the floodlight only when it detects movement. Remote viewing, with a surprisingly quick connection. Think you’d be hard pushed to get better for less than twice the price. I wouldn’t bother with movement tracking as I think its a bit glitchy, but what ever you do don’t have the colour night option on with movement tracking, as the light attracts moths and the camera will have a fit trying to track them all.
Good and sturdy.
We brought this Citronics camera as the competitor we had brought had to be returned due to no Customer care and faults. This camera was easy to install both from software and hardware. You don’t have to spend money on buying cloud space which is very important in these hard day’s. The SD card works well. The one problem is the camera sometimes cannot be manipulated on the phone very easily when you want to suddenly want to watch something. We have installed it on our front porch since our neighbors were troubling my wife due to her skin colour. The light in the night is very bright so it has to be turned off. It has a good night vision. The customer care replies to emails immediately but they don’t make a lot of sense. The camera by itself is good we got in one of Amazons sales.
Excellent buy
After seeing all the other good reviews on this item I decided to purchase it. It is fantastic! Great quality on day and night vision and simple to use. Great value for money and added peace of mind
Excellent camera with many features.
Bought this camera to replace a previous set up I had. The camera is very easy to set up – Switch on, locate the camera’s WIFI signal on your phone, connect & configure with the app. In order to access and view the camera whilst away from home its important to add your WIFI network (via the app). The camera has many features which can be configured for individual needs. The sensitivity can be adjusted depending on the location etc. The picture quality in HD is very sharp both in daytime & night vision. You need a 64GB SD card to record the video which you can transfer to a home FTP server or other storage if required; otherwise, the camera overwrites the oldest video footage on a cyclic basis. The 355 deg pan and 90 deg tilt features are useful as it means you can mount the camera in otherwise difficult locations and have a good all-round view. Overall, for the cost a great piece of kit.
Excellent Wi-Fi camera at cheap price
Camera excellent smart mod is clever but never rests tends to find something it likes and pans in normally a cat I turn smart mode off and pan out very good camera with 3 night modes low light colour, infra red or colour via built in spot when it picks them up

Fantastic Camera!
I’ve been looking for a security camera for the back garden of our home for a while now.
I purchased this as it sounded a great all rounder for price, and reviews.
I must admit I was a bit dubious of the price as it has undercut all of the other competitive prices for all of its amazing features – but it’s worth every penny!
As you can see from the photos it’s all packaged really well in airbagged wrap.
The camera has everything you need:
.
– Auto tracking
– Color night vision
– Advanced HiSilicon 3516EV200 chip.
– All Platform Supported
Ctronics security ip camera supports smartphones (iOS, Android), tablets (iPad, Android), PC(Mac OS, Windows). This is the most convenient way to watch from anywhere, anytime.
– Your Privacy Comes First
We offer AES 128-bit Encryption, it’s officially recommended by many security agencies (including NSA). It’s more than enough, it could take billions of years for a Brute Force attack to find a password to decrypt original message.
– Stronger wifi signal.
– Excellent heat dissipation.
– 1080P Full HD.
– Cover every concer, no blind angle
Thanks to the horizontal movement of 355 and vertical of 90 you can remotely control the video camera by rotating to look at every corner, internal or external, via your smartphone. The built-in microphone in the Wi-Fi camera can record what really happened and the ambient sound on the scene.
Brilliant Outdoor Security Camera
This outdoor security camera has some brilliant futures and is easily set up.
Excellent picture quality at day and night.

Excellent quality picture for the price.
Camera is very easy to setup with the app, although I had problems with connection to my pc which couldn’t find the camera but I added the camera details in manually and now up and running. Not sure which is the best place to mount yet, so just tested on a piece of wood. Picture quality is very good and so is the audio. Motion detection is very good. Would be great if you could remove wifi antennas if you just wanted to use straight to LAN. Overall an excellent camera, but it is my first so can’t compare with other makes. Wish I had gone for the black model.
For piece of mind with easy set up click buy
We were really impressed with this camera. dispatch time was fast and delivery was next day. The set up was really simple and straightforward which meant the camera was up and working in no time at all. We wanted this as a way of seeing who was out the front of our property quickly and easily and with the app that’s exactly what it does. The picture quality is much better than I expected as is the night vision, meaning the captured shots are clear and crisp and because it is all on an app I can check the camera from anywhere giving us that extra piece of mind.
As previously stated I would recommend this product to anyone in the market and if your not looking for something like this …..Why not??
Mains powered, Night Vision and Motion detectio
I have used some other WiFi camera before but find this range amazing value for money.
The camera is easy to install as it can be hardwired or WiFi connected, and the camera has active motion detection which when motion is detected it will track it which makes it easy for security needs.
The camera also is mains power and comes with an adapter you simply plug in to the camera and the mains, no need to wire it into the mains. Plus with night vision the camera is a great addition to our house.
Great camera and customer service
This is a great camera, unfort i had to return it due to its size and my wifi signal, i did manage to set it up after some time – app is clear, picture quality great – most importantly the returns process and customer service was faultless and returned my money immediatly
Excellent cameras, customer service superb!
I have now bought two of these cameras, they are fabulous! I had a couple of questions to ask the seller, and the response, was swift, very helpful and they couldn’t have done more to advise. The clarity is superb. Setting up was very, very quick and easy. I have had a few cameras over the years, but these cameras are way ahead. 10/10
Fantastic quality
I brought this as a replacement for a very old one
Wish I had sooner,
The quality is amazing night vision is very very clear
Very easy to install with a handy free app
Everything about the product is amazing
I will be ordering a second for the back doo
Really good product for the money...
Simple setup if you have a basic understanding of technology and wifi, etc. App is really good and the remote control works well. Night vision and colour (lit) is very bright and clear. Picture quality is more than acceptable, camera movement is in fairly big jumps, but still OK. Motion detection is sensitive, but I need to set it up properly by choosing the area to monitor and the sensitivity level. Overall physical quality appears good as well. Would recommend these to anyone looking for a simple and cheap setup for a little peace of mind.
I have bought 6 of these for the outside of my house and now they are linked by wifi and using Ctronic App i can see them day and night.
connecting by wifi was not easy – i first linked them to my sky box by ethernet – the (Apple) app can then find them and add them, however getting to operate on wifi only took some doing. I had to update my CamHi programme, add them to it whilst still connected by ethernet, logout log – back in, then in properties i could see the camera details and set up the wifi link and password, once this was done they worked on the wifi.
to set up each 1 probably took 10-20mins each – this may be a quirk of the HiCam software – its not got the quickest response time.
Once I had set up the cameras on my phone / pc, using the HiCAM app on my wife’s Samsung was much easier – because the cameras were set up to wifi already.
an improvement in the App is required or use an open software protocol as some other cameras do.
price was good as well.
I dont use the motion detector function as the local wildlife would be setting it off all the time at night.
still to sort out the LED lights and how best to use them.
Pan and tilt is useful when we want to see what going on out side (nosey).
All are fitted with 64GB cards to record and this has helped when drivers back in to our bollards (600 high, 100diameter), drive on our grass – if only i could post these videos
Amazing
Amazing camera will be ordering another one for sure might try a diffrent one see which is better
Set up quite easy to do anyone who is having problems ie with the light staying on simple fix set it to auto it will switch it self off make sure there is no light reflecting off the lenses otherwise the light will stay on
The best way solving problems it to play about with it you will get use to i
I feel more secure now
This camera is great. Everything you need is innthe box and the instructions are clear. The app feature with its alert messages for motion is great for keeping track day or night of the goings on. The night vision helps clearly see anything at night that we need. Much better than just black and white. Once we’d installed I felt more secure in our home and what more can you ask for.

Excellent value
I have just installed the camera with the image going to my mobile phone. I am not computer savvy but the instructions were easy to follow. I have fitted to an outside wall about 2.8 m from the gound. The images are clear. The motion detector is quite sensitive. Although the running instructions aren’t comprehensive setting a preset and email alert etc, the online help is prompt and supportive. It’s a good camera and excellent value for money

Great outdoor CCTV, HD video & a lot of tech for the price!
I’ve had this camera for just under 2 weeks, purchased to replace / work alongside a wired outdoor camera system which was losing it’s infrared night vision after 5 years. Having had a break in at home last year I’ve been looking to improve on our existing setup, while my original camera got a conviction I was due an upgrade. I was surprised at the price of this camera for the features provided, things have moved on in the past few years and a replacement for my wired camera would’ve been more than I bought this for.
I was also lucky to win a second camera with the scratch card that comes with this camera, while this initially made me wonder if it’s too good to be true, the quality of this camera for the price bracket is fantastic and is ideal for home / business use.
Both the night and day picture quality is very good and in HD with audio recording too.
Good points:
– Great HD picture quality both night and day with the ability to choose from 3 options for night time – Infrared night vision, full time colour picture with built in floodlight or the motion sensitive floodlight. I’ve chosen infrared to avoid disturbing the neighbours when an animal / person walks past as I live in the city.
– Audio recording (though this to me feels intrusive, my cameras are installed outdoors and it could be very useful to have the audio too if any crime is committed)
– PTZ (pan, tilt, zoom) is great as you can adjust and change the camera angle from your sofa with the app, to focus on where you want to watch.
– Wide camera angle, I can see a much wider view than with my wired cctv cameras (which I still have as a backup)
– Fast wifi connection
– Easy and quick to setup with the app, you will need an outdoor 12v DC connection, I was able to split the power from my existing camera easily to add this into my system.
– Can be viewed remotely with the phone app, and you can speak to and hear people using the app.
Negative / points of improvement:
– intelligent motion tracking – I found didn’t work as well as I’d hoped due to living in a residential area, if you are using this in a back garden / indoor work area it’s fine, and for the price bracket it’s as expected. I would recommend turning the intelligent tracking off, as it will track anything that moves and possibly miss anything that happens in your chosen surveillance area while it’s tracking something else.
– PC control – With the recommended app for PC I so far have been unable to connect at all to either camera, it is very confusing so I haven’t bothered, it would be nice to be able to have control of the cameras and view recordings easily on the PC/Mac, I am just using the iPhone app, and you can download footage from there.
– Night Vision doesn’t always turn on due to bright street lights nearby, I moved the camera to a different location and it’s improved.
– When using the PTZ the motor noise is slightly loud on the recording but I’ve not heard it when in front of the camera.
– It would be good if the Micro SD card slot had a screw to secure it and make it slightly more difficult to remove.
What would I improve? Mainly a decent PC app & the intelligent motion tracking, but for home use and once you’ve got it setup in the right position for your needs it’s a great camera.
I’d also say the motion alarm can be quite sensitive in bad weather but I’m used to that with my existing cameras. If you prefer intelligent human detection you can buy the more expensive version. For this price point you’re not going to find any better in my opinion! I tend to check the alert recordings periodically as I’m in town so there’s a lot of people and cars passing by.
It’s my first time getting an IP camera and I’ve avoided the internet of things as much as I can so I wouldn’t have anything inside the house that has audio / video connected to the internet, but apart from my hang ups on that I’d recommend this for the price you can’t go wrong.. would I have one inside? No but that’s not directed at this brand – I wouldn’t have any internet connected cctv in my house, however for outside security use it’s great and I’m very happy with both cameras so far!
Great picture , dose the job its meant for .
We have an older fixed camera but the night vision is much better and being able to rotate and have a two way conversation is good . Great value . The cables are big but i put them into a weatherproof socket box and just run the power cable into the house. Will be buying another one.
Overall good but faff to set up
It is good overall but it’s a massive faff to set up.
You have to connect via a wire to router then set up WiFi.
You have to have it on mains all time so can’t actually use it outside as the wire will get cut in the windows 🙁 and the power wire will be exposed to elements of the weather.
good value
fantastic picture quality easy to set up
slight issue with flash player if you want to watch on a computer as it have been withdrawn across all platforms
there is a work around using older versions of explorer firefox and safari
Great but after service not grea
Worked brilliant from November 2020 till January 2021 then it stopped moving so we took all the trouble shooting advice and it still didn’t work so I emailed the company and still no reply . Product is great but customer service/aftercare not brillia
Amazing camera with great features
This camera is fantastic. It comes with everything you need to set it up and attach it to the wall. The camera picture is very clear and fab that it has night vision and motion detection technology. I think it’ll act as a deterrent to anyone who’s see it at my home and knowing it’s getting clear pictures even at night gives me a sense of security. Highly recommend and good price for the quality of camera.

Good camera but PC software is not the bes
I’m pleased with the image quality once the camera is set up.
The installation was easy enough, but the PC software is ancient and not at all intuitive so it took ages to sort out how to configure and set passwords.
This is the first security camera we have had and once we managed to set it up which was not straightforward it works very well. What’s not clear from the description is three wires coming from the back of the camera which are only short so if you want these protected inside you would need a large hole. The picture quality is really good and the night vision . The positioning of the camera from your iPhone takes a bit of getting use to but the vision is long range
Good and bad
Plus points.. good pictures on night and day vision, good coverage and good connectivity. App works well.
Negative points.. It is not motion detection but pixel changes which means that it
Alarms every time it rains or snows or the lights from a passing car at the end of the road flash or even the emissions from a boiler set it off..
Good stuff. Iffy software.
Easy enough to use/set up, but software (for PC) is really annoying to use, too many options very poorly labelled. Once set up camera performs well, recording to SD card (keeps about a week on a 32GB card). Wifi connection strong, and hasn’t complained about rain, snow, wind or ice. The Android app is mostly fine, but does occasionally drop connection to the camera. The time on the camera was lost around once a day, reverting to May 2020, but this problem seems to have gone away.

great camera for the price but there is no digital zoom .
Great camera not too difficult to set up and it all works well, slightly deceiving description as there is no way you can zoom in on anything. The zoom controls are greyed out on the app. But still a great bit of kit for the price.
Good quality camera with sharp pictures but let down by sending too many notifications problem.
Like- I really like this security camera. Design wise very good and sturdy. Pictures are really good day and night.
Even night time you can view colour pictures. It also detect human and follow them around until they are there and after it comes to stop in same position as before. I own few other security camera but I most like this ones pictures quality, you can zoom, pan, tilt.
Dislike – you get notifications for everything like rain, wind, leaf moving etc. I actually had 11 notifications in hour on the calm day so imagine how many notifications it will send on rainy, windy day .
I have set up on low medium sensor. If you set on lower then that you won’t get any notifications until person came and long gone.
I am going to return this one and buying CTRONICS security camera with human detection option and I hope it will resolve my problem.
Done camera of top quality
Make sure your DVR/NVR can support this quality camera
I have a hybrid DVR set to 4 coaxial and 4 IP
Unfortunately to use this setting I had to select 960 and unable to select 1080
Tried setting to 1080 and meant I lost all my coaxial cameras
Had to set back to 960 to utilise the other cameras
Set this camera up as an independent camera
Top quality, picture, motion and night view
If I upgrade my coaxial cameras to all ip I would definitely use this camera moving forward

Great Picture.
This is a very good camera for the price.
Night vision is first class and in colour.
Not all functions work on the laptop ,but is still better than some higher priced cameras.
Very good tilt and pan.
I bought two ,one just to watch wildlife in the garden.
Pros:
-good price
-easy to use app
-excellent picture quality
-night vision good
-can take photos/video of live stream
-sound/hear/talk function
-easy to fit
Cons:
-wire not very long (can’t have mine outdoors for that reason)
-must buy SD card
-motion sensor STUPIDLY OVER sensitive (this is a real issue. Loads of false alarms)
-quite tricky to set up
-only emails one picture to you
Overall, if you want a decent, proper security camera pay a bit more and don’t buy this one. This camera is for people to add a bit of extra security to their home rather than some actual, proper tech that makes a difference.
Amazing value for money. Great security camera
What an amazing camera this is! Firstly it came really quickly and was packaged lovely.
I am not usually the one who deals with anything technical and electrical but my husband was at work so I had to set it up myself and I was so surprised at how straightforward and easy it was to do !
The set up is really simple and can be done through an app on your phone and then once you are set up you are ready to go.
The picture and video is such amazing quality !
It is definitely the best camera that we have ever purchased and such great value for money.
Really recommend these products.

Does what it says in the descriptio
Nice small camera Good pic quality Easy set up and connection to phone Haven’t tried night vision as of yet but will update you on that.. great value for money all round. The only down thing is that there is no ZOOM only if you do with your fingers on the screen like on ya phone ie open close fingers on screen !! Then you loose pic quality
Perfect quality & Camera
I purchased this camera for security for my house! “Won’t post pictures for security reasons” the camera is absolutely great! Works amazing, very fast and perfect quality! The audio in this camera is great wasn’t expecting this when I bought it. This is going to come extremely useful I can see everything with a full vision and can move the camera around myself from an app! When I’m shopping I can go into the app and look at my camera to see what’s going on outside my house! Definitely recommend! This is an amazing camera and will definitely recommend to everyone and will use it all the time.
Looks good, connects to smart phone
We got the security camera as quite often our children play outside and the back gate leads into a car park, after worrying that they can exit or others can enter we decided to get a camera that will allow us to Monitor them from our phones. This has been perfect for that. It’s small and discreet so looks good on the wall outside and always acts as a deterrent for unwanted problems as well as giving overall peace of mind. The picture quality is good. On the Box there was also wall fittings for putting it up.
Good value for money
We’ve been after a security camera for a while and picked this one based on price for the specification. The box came well packaged, the camera was easy to set up and the pictures it produces are of good quality.
Easy to use and good even in low or no lighting. The night vision is still super clear. It’s a bit bigger than how I’d pictured it so I couldn’t place it in the position I’d originally envisioned – but I soon found a suitable spot for it.
I also loved that this camera came with a sticker to put in the window to notify passers by, those entering your home and/or potential thieves that there is CCTV monitoring on the premises.
Best camera on the market for this money!
Amazing product! Where do I start…
Intelligent tracking is great with the automatic swivel and tilt of the camera, ideal for watching a large space with just one camera. The night vision and lights are extremely powerful meaning that no area is to dark for this camera. Night or day it works perfectly. You get a crisp clear image with no stuttering with this camera unlike it’s competitors.

Cam review
Dislike connections, if u use Etherley its not sealed. Unable to turn camera to look about, if u have a power cut u have to enter most details again & scan QR code which is on back of camera, means ladders out undo cam.
Really Pleased with this camera, easy to install (just need a big enough drill bit to go through the wall) and simple to set up. The app gives you notifications when it detects movement or humans so you can go on and view even when your not home. The picture quality is clear during the day and also at night. Added bonus is a microphone so you can even talk to whoever may be approaching your property. Quality of camera itself is also good it’s very sturdy. Highly recommend getting one if you want extra piece of mind your property is secure.
Instructions could be bette
Camraworks well does what its supposed to instructions very vague tho tells the buyer little had to do my own research apart from that im pleased with the performance so far night vision is excellent and picture quality also very good user manual rubbish in my opinio

After purchasing from ctronics previously for a security camera at the front of my property, it was a no brainer to order a second one for the rear of the property. I have had absolutely no problems at all with their products. Easy to set up, picture quality is unreal, night vision is perfect. I turned off the motion detection on the camera at the front and keep it in a fixed position, although I can change it remotely from my phone. I live in a small close so when the camera started following my neighbours around I thought it best for privacy reasons to turn it off. It still notifies me when someone walks into the frame and starts recording though. Audio is great, was able to tell the workmen that arrived early that I was on my way home and they heard me just fine! I have kept the motion detection on at the back so it will follow any movement and also turn on the flood lights – I have alley way access to the back so this makes me feel much more secure. No problems connecting a second camera to existing app. You won’t find a camera of this spec for the money anywhere else and I tell everyone about ctronics because they really are worth every penny! 100% reccomend to everyone, domestics, businesses, land owners. 4g always works well away from home too!
Great camera, easy to set up
Speedy delivery. Came packaged securely in a well presented box. Comes with screws and wall plugs to get you started straightaway. It’s a great camera that is easy to set up and install. We connected it with the network cable then just download the app & added our device. This is a wired camera but the cable was long enough for us to connect to an indoor socket. Colour night vision is great & you can use the controls on the app to scan the area yourself. A great product from Ctronics!
Amazing camera .
So after someone tried to break into my house twice I decided to order this camera after many recommendations. I was super happy with how it was packaged as it prompted a safe delivery . I haven’t fixed it to the wall yet but I have tried it and the night vision is very clear and the motion dection is amazing even if you go just under it still detects it . Its a fab camera and I definitely recommend, specially as aive had 2 tried break ins and now I can get a clear picture if it does happen again (which I hope it doesn’t!) .

This camera has its ups and downs, I’ll list them in points to help people make a more information decision
Good Points:
* Priced Reasonably for a WiFi camera
* Quality can be really good, and can be set up relatively easy
* Simple enough to wirelessly view your camera or recordings
* Rotates on command
Bad Points:
* Wires won’t fit through an external wall without removing a quarter of a brick
* Can’t be moved accurately on the app – but can on PC
* Every time it loses power – when it comes back on, it moves to a default position
* Rain, flies, snow, wind, leaves – everything sets off the motion sensor
* WiFi signal receiver is terrible, needs to be 3m away to work
* Records motion activity in 14 second bursts, no longer.
* App and PC software is cheap and basic – definitely should have more control over the camera
All in all its good if you can put up with the negatives, and can find a way around removing bricks to get the wires through the wall.
Get a more expensive one if you’re needing a camera system to protect something cherished, I wouldn’t trust this one completely.
Best security camera !
This is truly the best security camera I have ever owned! It was delivered quickly, it was extremely easy to set up and the image quality is incredible. All my previous cameras the image quality is poor and the connection is too but I can’t fault this one at all. I love the fact it moves along with motion!

Perfect vision and clear picture!
Camera arrived and was well packaged. I had a bit of trouble setting it up but soon realised my mistake and saw how easy it was. Due to living in a flat I wanted a camera I could put in my window to keep an eye on my car at night and this camera is perfect. The night vision is very good and has a talk back feature where you can talk through the app and it comes out of the camera. Excellent value for money! So happy I got this as it can be controlled from my phone!
Great camera
Great little camera quite small so it’s discreet easy to set up records to SD card and easy to watch and download footage on phone. This is the second camera I have. Both use ONVIF which is great if you want to add to a something like blue iris would recommend this little camera
Purchased this as a replacement for another camera that had seen better days. There’s a few things I’d like to mention , 1st of all how quick it actually to actually connect and display’s the camera image , really like this. 2 point is how good the night vision image is , ( image above ) and the 3rd point is the customer service , fantastic , I had an issue trying to get the camera to connect to my WiFi , I am quite good with tech stuff but for some reason I couldn’t get the camera connected . The C/S rep Mandy was quick to reply and forwarded a few different links showing videos of how to connect etc . 1st class Customer service , quick connection time when going to view the image via the app ans good picture quality make this a superb camera for the money . Other dearer camera’s ( like the one I replaced ) are no were near as good . Well done , a well deserved 5 stars.
One of the best cameras I’ve found
I can’t get over how amazing this camera is, the image is so clear in both daytime and night mode. It was so easy to instal as the instructions were so clear to follow, I really like that at night it has a light that comes on when it detects movement. I think for the price of this camera you get so much the features are perfect the app is easy to use.
This is our first CCTV system and I am so pleased with the result. There’s a free app for your phone which is used to set it up and monitor. You can also monitor it on a laptop or computer. It’s a good size and good camera quality.
Great value
Great product arrived a day before it was due.
Was easy to set up with simple instructions to follow.
The camera is just what I was looking for.
The movability off the camera caputers every bit off my garden and with the smart tracking follows anything on my garden.
With an sd card inserted records everything so can view anything I need

Okay, hands down the BEST security camera I’ve ever had.
This took a matter of minutes to set up unlike others we’ve had in the past. It is the easiest setup I’ve ever done and requires no awkward cables plugging into a system or router. It was pretty much plug and go!
With a free app to download to your phone, it’s extremely helpful to be able to control the camera movement that way. There’s clear sound from the camera to the device, motion tracking and the option to haven’t night mode recorded in full colour which is completely new to me!
It covers every angle we need at the front of the house, giving us full ability to check who’s there wherever we are. My minds back at ease knowing I have full control at all times, especially with how it’s going darker earlier and there’s always the chancers out to take advantage and cause trouble.
I’m looking already into their other products because I am sold
