Thanks alot for your support igeeks
5.0 out of 5 stars Good after sale service
Had slight connection problem with wifi , but Tiya help me thru the problem
good when working now..
Very affordable…
Great camera device , feel very well made. No need to go through all hard wired around your house”charge and go”. My family was all impressed by the device and the all the functions this little device has. Happy custome
Really good quality
Very happy with this product, love the solar panel part, no need to charge battery. Always at 100% (South facing garden)
Looking good so far. Easy to set up
It’s looking good so far. It’s easy to set up and the instructions for the app are pretty straightforward.
I have high hopes for this. Fingers crossed.
Easy to set up and works perfectly
Camera was very easy to set up and works perfectly. Picks up motion very quickly and is good quality.
Excellent customer service
The hinge part between the mount bracket n camera is rusting after just 8 months. It’s not exposed to direct weather either.
Update:
I am delighted to say after my comment Tiya from iGeek got in touch and has sent me new bracket and provided exceptional after sales service. I would recommend this company as their service is second to none.
Excellent picture quality
This was bought to enable me to keep a watchful eye on our dog, who likes to spend long periods in the back garden and is just what was needed!
Excellent daytime picture with very good motion detection and a very good field of vision.
The night picture is very clear too.
Fitting was straightforward and the set up was ok too once I had got my head round it!!
All in all, a very good product which I am happy to recommend for similar situations.
Super clear picture
Extremely easy to set up excellent picture quality and great customer service support highly recommended
Very reasonably priced camera
Very easy to set up. Attractive camera which produces excellent pictures and sound. Charging is best if you have the solar panel as well, which I did get as well, now just waiting for the sun to come out! To improve night pictures I have also fitted a movement detection light at the front of my house as the picture at night can be quite dark without definition. Would buy another one for the rear of the house.
Impressive
Excellent product, very easy to set up with really good results. This is now my third wireless camera from the same company, highly recommended.
Good security system!
Very clear images, very reliable, easy to install. The software is impressive and does what is needed. Human detection and imaging is automatically saved and phone alerts are immediate. I recommended to friends and family!
Straight forward and easy to set up
Installed and set up easily to monitor a balcony with French Doors, everything works fine no motion deteted apart from when i set it up which is a good thing.
Solar panel has kept the battery at 100%, it’s now been up 2 weeks.
The only minor issue i have is it tells you to download 2 apps, an igeek app and another both of which seem to do the same thing, so uninstalled the olther app and just use the igeek app.
Great quality camera and customer service
Motion detection and video quality are stunning. Had a small misunderstanding with how cloud service works and alarm recoding works but customer service contacted me directly and helped to fix my problem immediately.
excellent camera and brilliant customer service AAAAAA+
These cameras are amazing but i do advise you purchase a solar panel.
I have had another going for 12 months and it charges with the panel without the need for attention.
This company also provides a good customer service for any issues.
Good piece of kit for the price.
Easy to install, software easy to set up, two weeks use only but happy to recommend.
A great all round camera
Super easy to set up and get running, good quality picture, highly recommend this camera
Security camera
This is my third iegeek camera, this is an updated model, the picture quality is great and I love the strobe light at night. These cameras are great value for money and are so easy to install and use, when your out and about you can check on your phone, also yo can speak to anyone in your garden. The distance is great I can capture across the other side of my street, you also only get snaps of people which is really great. You only need an sd card to record onto. I would recommend this camera
Great camera for a great price
The product was simple enough to set up. I would definitely recommend mounting the bracket before starting the app set up because you need to calibrate the camera and so it helps to have the Mount ready for when you get to that stage.
The customisations are great and I’m very impressed with the WiFi antenna strength.
The free seven day cloud storage is great because it means you can use the camera without long term subscription requirements etc.
Does a lot for the money and will consider getting more.
Security Camera
Really pleased with the camera , easy to set up and use .
Great camera that do the job.
The camera is easy to install and very sensitive. I have a garden with a length of 15m, the camera has no problem with motion detection, although its factory range is 10m. It is very useful to adjust the day and night motion detection on and off separately. This helps extend battery life. The image from the camera is clear and human detection is perfect. Not once has the camera triggered an alarm when my dog is in the garden. A product worth buying.
Battery not lasting long.
Works very well but doesn’t sync with Amazon Alexa and needs frequent recharging.
So far so good.
The camera was easy to set up, easy to install, I really like the function or security alert area selection. So far so good
Great Camera, Easy to Set up
This camera was really easy to set up and install, and the solar panel means we aren’t reliant on remembering to replace batteries. The motion detection is good, and the app is really easy to use, so we had this stand alone security camera installed and working in no time! Would definitely recommend this product.
Just the job
I bought this to use to watch wildlife in the garden but now have also set it up for security. Good picture quality with loads of features, much more useful than the price would suggest.
Easy to set up with the app so you can watch wherever you are, very pleased with this.
So far so good. A great camera… gives other branded cameras a run for their money
Bought a number of these cameras to put around my house, but wanted to avoid drilling holes in the house and having to run cables.
I’ve been really impressed so far. The connectivity is good, the responsiveness of the motion sensors and the battery life is looking like it will last at least 2 months. I intend to add some solar panels at some point.
It feels substantial enough and like it will last well – and the bracket is easy enough to attach to the wall and can be moved to the right angles with ease.
Overall, very impressed. Likely to add a few more as they feel like a good investment so far.
Great purchase
Camera is doing everything I needed it to do. Great quality images and videos. Really happy with the purchase
Great security camera
This is the first security camera I have purchased and I am really impressed with the ease of use of the product.
It is simple to set up and install and, in less than 5 minutes, you can be up and running.
The picture quality in daytime is crystal clear and the night vision mode is superb. It’s easy to set up the monitoring area to avoid nuisance alerts and seems to differentiate between humans and animals.
It’s easy to navigate around the App to download images from alerts and view live feeds.
I have to say, this is fantastic value for such a high spec security camera.
Brilliant bit of ki
Great picture quality, easy to set up, easy to use app. Free to use app too ( when used with memory card) can view multiple cameras at once. This is my 3rd Igeek camera and I highly rate them. Solar charging is great too.
Decent camera with a decent price
Easy to install, easy to set up via the app, have only had it up a couple of days so far but all seems really good, picks up motion when it should and the app is really easy to use, even the light at night time is an added bonus
Yes I would recommend this item
Excellent value and quality
This item is well made, easy to set up and gives a good picture quality. The seller is very responsive. I am completely satisfied with this product, and can thoroughly recommend it.
Looks Good
I’ve only had for a short period. Good pictures and works well at the moment. This is my second camera the first being a different make. They look similar but this camera I chose to get the solar recharger. I’ve been impressed as this has worked well up to date and hopefully will save me taking down the camera to recharge as often. I can’t recommend as I’ve only had it a few weeks but up to now I’ve been impressed.
Great wireless CCTV
I’ve had this fitted few a few months now and am impressed with the quality and battery lifespan.
The camera is very easy to fit and set up with the app. One thing I would say about it, is that the still pictures taken by the camera aren’t as good quality as what you can pull yourself from the motion detection recorded video, but that’s no biggie as this is easy enough to do.
Would definitely recommend buying!
Fantastic
Amazing product. Great nyt vision. Easy to instal and use. Customer service at I-geek have been fantastic and so helpful. Would highly recommend this product and the fantastic Customer care from I-geek.
Fabulous camera and superb customer service
I bought this in December 2021 and put it up to watch the birds on our feeders, it is absolutely brilliant the pictures are so clear and I can record take pics etc to send to family/friends who have the same hobby.
The squirrels have damaged the bracket which perished in the process. I contacted the company to see where i could get a new bracket and even though it’s out of warranty they very kindly sent me a new bracket free of charge.
Don’t think I’ve had customer service quite like it before – much appreciated, thank you.
Good camera system
Generally it works very well. Motion detection isn’t perfect but it’s 95% accurate. The ieGeek software is pretty good and, like most software, any glitches are resolved by a software restart. I’m buying another one to cover the rear of the house, so I guess that summarises my overall positive opinion of the camera.
Great camera quality
Easy to build, good quality camera overall. The app does have an option to turn on the alarm and the light manually by phone, not sure if any detection is gonna activate them automatically. I noticed the package was open so it was a returned item with the plastic cover removed already, but it doesn’t matter. The app is plenty of features and options so I’ll need time to learn it 100%. The cloud service is free for 7 days only, so I installed a sd card of 128 GB.
Nice features
They stole it after only one week and I have no footage of it being stoled neither does the additional cover pay for theft 🙁
I liked it until I had it.
Superb camera quality.. would highly recommend
Delivery was so quick! Easy to connect with app and install! Quite happy with it so far and would recommend it to anyone.
Quality produc
Very easy to install and set up. Very good quality images even at night The app is easy to use and navigate around
Easy to install
Used the cameras to monitor tge front and back of our property.
Excellent performance clear images fell secure.
Works brilliant, good quality images, motion detection but one must keep in mind the angle you place. Over all good preforming. I purchased this in August 2022 and today is December 2022 in this period I have recharged it 2 times. I presume this time around the battery drained quicker due to extreme cold weather and its also getting darker in uk early.
Excellent camera at a very affordable price
This wireless camera has been a pleasant surprise in terms of quality, easy setup and installation. The rechargeable battery life is quite good and depends on the level of motion detection set.
The camera displays a wide area and the clarity and quality of screenshots and videos is excellent day or night in all types of weather, These can be saved on to 128Gb microSD card which has to be purchased separately. The sound, spotlight and siren functions also work very effectively. It does a great job at a very good price.
Definitely very highly recommended
Easy installation and good camera quality
This security camera is easy to install and good value for money. I had purchased this product for extra safety in my area and am impressed with the good camera quality and sensors that work well even in the dark. The camera was easy to use with the help of detailed instructions the seller provided and the customer service was helpful and friendly when I asked questions. It is also a wireless product and has a long battery life once fully charged. Finally, the camera comes with an extended one year warranty. I am very satisfied with my purchase.
UPDATED REVIEW
UPDATE
Have been contacted by the seller problem now resolved (hence now 5*). Thank you.
The first part of my review still holds true though – picture quality (360p) not good enough to read number plates. However the video quality is excellent.
Customer service was superb and after failing to resolve the problems I had, a replacement was delivered promptly at no extra cost.
Fine as a visual deterrent but picture quality is not good enough to identify people or read car number plates even over a short distance.
In addition, the camera failed after just 14 months displaying a solid green screen on my iPhone which wasn’t resolved by reinstalling from scratch.
Good quality security camera
Good quality security camera with high resolution.
Record to SD card and view via ieGeek app. Easy set up to WiFi.
Good battery life with rechargeable battery.
I don’t need to remove to charge, run an usb cable to mains charge or a power charger bank.
Added bonus of security light aswell motion detection at night.
Would definitely recommend.
Really amazing camera
Night vision, can set alarm areas and times you want it active, light & if you want, siren (not amazingly loud, but it’s still a deterrent!) Also intercom function. Picture quality is great on standard, really really good on HD. Battery will drain if it’s being constantly activated but for odd triggers, lasts weeks. Got the solar panel with it, but it’s not that great in winter & it’s on a south facing wall, unobstructed from daylight. If I remember, I’ll update in summer about it’s efficacy.
All in all though, seriously good and well priced for what you get!
Variation in battery life but good customer service
I bought an igeek security camera 3 years ago and I was very pleased with all aspects of the product, particularly the battery life which was 6 months between charges. However, I had a problem with water ingress (possibly my fault) and I had no hesitation buying an identical replacement. The new camera only lasted 8 weeks before requiring a recharge. I have contacted the company on several occasions and they have provided advice on reducing settings to maximise battery life. However, the company feels that there will be variation in battery performance. Nevertheless, they have given me a discount on a new camera. It’s a good product, and it is a very cost-effective way to keep your property under supervision.
IeGeek customer service amazing
I purchased a iegeek camera in May, it impressed me with quality of the camera and picture at night and day.
In November the camera stopped working and I contacted the customer service team.
What a great experience from them to fix the issue.
thank you agai
Truly wireless, very good
The camera is truly wireless. 3 screws for the camera, 3 screws for the solar panel. The power wire from solar panel is a very good length. Live view is possible but does drain the battery if used constantly (not horrendously fast though). We’ve had it up for around 6-8 weeks now before writing this review. We get notifications to 5 devices when motion is detected and with a microSD card in the camera can view the history of motion alerts although it doesn’t record 24/7 only the motion alerts. Quality is clear as can be seen from screenshots day and night. Sound quality is surprisingly good too as is the siren and remote spotlight function. My only suggestion would be if it could work with the HiCam app and thus, the PC program as my other iGeek cameras do. The battery life has dipped to around 40% at its lowest point but even with nearly 2 weeks of constant rain and cloud it’s still charged upto around 90% each day and the solar panel only gets ‘direct’ sunlight around 50% of the daytime. Really can’t fault this camera. The app is free to use and view motion alerts if you have an SD card in the camera. Looks nice too! Does the job very well for the price I don’t think you’ll get better for the price.
Easy to install and great clarity
installed outside of bedroom window to ensure wifi connection, very thick walls. So easy to install, the app too, and I am not good with technology. it works a treat. and the picture is so clear, zooming in is a doddle, just pinch the screen, that easy
as on a main road i get a lot of notifications during the day, but its quiet at night so don’t want to mess with settings.
Someone messed with car one night so set this up, now i will know who, if they do it again?
Brilliant, try i
Amazing!
Camera delivered quickly and packaged well. Easy to set up and the app is brilliant.
We did have an issue with the camera at one point, 1 email to customer service and it was resolved. Customer service was a pleasure to deal with and won’t hesitate to recommend this company to anyone.
Great customer service
Great night vision. If you are looking for a cctv with nice night vision, I will recommend it.
Very good produc
Purchased this and very impressed, ticks all boxes and meets my requirements well. Happily recommend this to others.
Excelle
Absolutely brilliant piece of kit Living on a really busy main road I’ve set the range to inside my driveway and sensitivity low so it doesn’t pick up anyone outside the drive been installed for 6 weeks battery still at 33 percent should last around 2 to 3 months at this rate so easy to set up on you’re phone very pleased
Great Customer Service...
Bought 2 of these cameras and to be honest, I have been pleasantly surprised. So 1 installed at front of house, looking over front door and garden. 2nd camera over backdoor and garden. Easy to install both camera and solar panel, easy to tilt both items to position you want.
So, easy to mount, easy to connect to app and easy to use app to set up camera as you want. Solar panels seem to work well, local storage via SD card so no need to pay for cloud storage if you just buy yourself a micro SD card. Picture quality is great for what I need, both day and night. Where you mount cameras is worth giving thought to, you need to ensure there’s no wall or glass for the camera to reflect off as this will disrupt night vision. So cameras facing straight forward seems optimal.
Now, 1 of my cameras had issues so I contacted the customer support via email and I must say they were excellent. After trying a couple of things that didn’t help they arranged for a replacement to be sent which was delivered in a couple of days. Overall I am very happy so far, the cameras do the job I want and offer me the security I wanted, mostly I just wanted to be able to have video of my dogs dealing with any potential intruder which these do brilliantly. Well worth giving these a go and customer service was brilliant.
Entry level security
Had this for about 3 weeks. I’m happy so far. If you are looking for something superfast and with no delays, you might want to spend a little more. I find the live image and videos work better on the ‘SD’ setting, the HD seems to slow it down & make it a bit glitchy – that could just be my wi-fi signal though. Good for the money.
Great Camera for wireless solutions at affordable prices
For the price you pay and the ease of install theres not many better options on the market, would highly recommend getting the solar attachment unless you don’t mind recharging once every 4-8 weeks depending on settings.
Camera review and installatio
The setup was really straight forward and the app is very easy to use, with great notifications!! Image quality and design is great and battery life is also very impressive.
Easy to set up
I bought 3 of these to keep my home safe from neighbors looking round my garden when I am out and for my personal security. This is easy to set up and the app easy to use. It has good picture quality except in wet conditions then can be blurred, but maybe a hood over it would help? Good lighting and audio on this camera as well. I bought the solar panels as well and so far the charging has been reasonably good even on a darker area, so worth the money and time saved getting these battery camera down to charge. I would buy these again.
Easy to install
Great for seeing any parcels being delivered,I can see they have been delivered and are safe.
peace of mind
bought 2 for car security and house, clear picture quality with the night mode, easy to set up app very good looking to purchase more in the very near future.
Does the job
Seems OK so far. Doesn’t always pick up on motion. Good picture quality though.
Good value for money
I have bought IeGeek 2k wireless camera few days ago and think it is a good value for money in terms of picture quality and motion detection.
The picture is quite clear even at night and motion detection is very sensitive so I could be alert whenever there is human or object motion. Only concern is consumption of battery. It seems the battery is running out a bit fast and I may need a solar panel to support it.
Bought a replacement when the first one failed
They say that repeating a behaviour and expecting a different result is a sign of madness. In such a moment I sent back my first ieGeek camera and bought another.
My bad experience with the first was down to a battery failure. I contacted ieGeek helpline and over a few days was asked to try various setting changes. The manufacturer then confirmed that the battery was faulty and offered to send me a replacement, free of charge and without returning the original. I was very impressed by the service provided by the help desk. However, I elected to go through Amazon who accepted my conversation with the help desk as proof of failure and refunded my payment.
I re-purchased and the new unit has been working well for the past two months with the battery remaining fully charged from the solar panel. I realise this may not be the case in winter with less sunshine. We will see.
The picture quality is good, the speaker works and the alarm on people approaching (variable settings) picks up everyone without false alarms.
So far the device has operated in sun and rain, yet to be tested in frost and snow.
Wi-Fi connection and battery operation makes for easy set-up and no cable connections.
The fact I repurchased indicates that I think the device design and operation is excellent. Assuming no further ‘ battery failure’ or similar issues I will be very pleased with my purchase.
Honest review
Going to a honest review.
In short I returned these!
Great Night vision both IR or in colour. Built in spot light good. Audio and image quality great. Sound has a 1s – 2s delay normal for wireless.
Set up very easy although the manual doesn’t explain some of the apps features
However,
Needs either SD card or Cloud storage at additional cost. However if on a Family network so both myself and my wife can view on our devices. Only the admin can view the history on Cloud storage. The seconded person on the account can only view Still images or stuff stored to Sd card/cloud
I would advise the developers to modify the app to allow all users access to view stored footage. (NOT a issue if your a solo user)
As with it being motion activated this is also Hit or Miss at times. A delay in activation for recording means missing some of the footage No option for continuous motion recording untill motion stops like some other brands.
Where this has some good positives there are some features missing or lacking. It’s worth noting this isn’t a 24/7 recording DVR set up.
Purchase both Cams and doorbell and both returned. Wasnt fit for my requirments Sadly.
Good value for the price
Bought this security camera 2 weeks ago, very easy install, good battery time, quite clear picture quality even night time. Recommended if you looking for a wireless, battery camera.
Very impressed
Recommended by a friend. Far exceeded my expectations, picture quality superb, very easy to install.
Will be buying others to replace my old wired system.
Will definitely recommend it to others.
Quite easy to set-up - could do with more informative Help / user manual
Bought two of these to view front door and side patio. Quite easy to set-up and add to ieGeek app running on Android. A lot of options to get your head around once set-up, but with some trial and error I think I have come up with a set of workable options.
Although I used the solar panels for initial charge I have not set these up permanently as I wanted to see what sort of battery life the cameras had. I’ve had a relatively small number of alerts (e.g. me walking out of front door at night and forgetting to turn off motion detection beforehand!), battery is now down to 48% after 5 weeks.
Initial responses from Customer Support were poor in respect of an issue I had getting Cloud backup set-up but they eventually came back and thereafter responses have been pretty fast and helpful.
EDIT: Have had several emails from ieGeek support since writing the above – full explanation of cloud service setup provided and a load of useful hints re battery consumption. Have now ordered two more of the same camera!
The ieGeek is really easy to install. No wires to run inside the house, just three small holes to drill to fit the base to the wall. The camera then screws onto a ball joint that enables you to set it at a multitude of angles.
N.B. initially I had the camera covering the front drive and the road/footpath… but every time someone walked past it would trigger the camera and that made the battery run down pretty quickly. To charge it you have to unscrew the camera and plug it in to a charger, which is a pain, as the battery can’t be removed.
So, you have to set the camera to just cover your property, so it’s only triggered by the postie or family members… otherwise you’ll be charging the battery every week or two.
Apart from that the camera is sound, with pretty decent picture quality. You can set it to primarily detect human shapes, rather than vehicles (very clever.) It can be set to record in various time lengths, there is a security light that can be set to turn on at night when motion is detected. It can record in colour at night, it has a siren and a speaker so you can warn people from your phone (via the app) when they come onto your property!
Highly recommended!
These little cameras are excellent as security cameras mounted on the outside of your house, but be aware of the possible snags. The cameras seem to be sold by a variety of Chinese manufacturers and when my first camera stopped working (it kept making a “cuckoo” sound no matter what I did to it) the warranty had expired so I threw it away, and I don’t think the vendor was still in business. The pros: long battery life, quite easy to install and configure provided you follow the instructions and connect it to a 2.5g network rather than a 5g network. I monitor the cameras from my iPhone and iPad – you can’t currently monitor from a computer though there is said to be a complicated workaround to let you do so. The cons: take great care inserting your SD card because sometimes it just drops into the camera, where you can’t rescue it, and you have to buy another SD card. It doesn’t always record an approaching person unless you configure it carefully – you might see a recording of the back of a person’s head at your front door but to see them approaching you might do as I did and install another camera further from the door as well. Recordings are made on the SD card with an option to subscribe to a Cloud service. You can subscribe for a month at a time or a year, and the disadvantage of subscribing for a long period is that if the camera fails, you can’t yourself transfer the cloud subscription to one of your other cameras. Fortunately the seller was kind enough to arrange to transfer the subscription when I asked, but said they don’t normally do this. I suppose the other shortcoming is the need to climb a ladder and unscrew the camera and take it inside when it requires recharging (after about 3 months), and the recharging takes a long time, maybe 8 hours. If you mount it within easy reach, thieves might take it. You can monitor the cameras remotely through your smartphone and, for instance, see if Amazon have left a package on your front step that you need to go home to rescue. Very glad to have these cameras, which I hope will deter burglars as they have done so far.
Very good security camera for the price
Looking for a suitable camera because of cars in our road being frequently vandalised, we came across these cameras. Our first one came quickly, and clearly was a solid, well built device despite the lower price. We put it up on the front of the house, and because the pavement is only 5m away, it can pick up everything clearly that happens outside the house. The app is very good, easy to check up on what is happening when away from home with the touch of a button. It even comes with an intercom, so you can warn people who are acting suspiciously.
Very impressed with the first camera, so with the price in mind, we ordered another for the back of the house. Double security to give double piece of mind. Very good cameras, would recommend.
You get what you pay for .. After an attempted break in at my property, I decided it was time to invest in some home security. I browsed online for CCTV systems and was not keen on spending a small fortune so I came across this Igeek camera and decided to purchase 2 of them, one for the front of the house and one for the rear garden. It started off very well and I was pleased with the motion detection and picture quality ( I should also mention these cameras are NOT for areas with high/ moderate activity, they are more suitable for gardens and small alleys where there is little movement etc as the camera at the front of the house required a charge once a month – I do not live on a busy main road but there are the occasional cars and pedestrians walking by). One day a neighbour knocked on our door as their car had been hit right outside our house. Only when we checked the app did we notice the cameras had not been recording anything. Both front and rear stopped recording and the pre recorded videos became inaccessible. We have tried EVERYTHING, moving them to a place where they have max WiFi signal, resetting them, updating software, re formatting. We reached out to customer service who advised us to update the software and reset the cameras, they suggested a few other things but nothing worked. They have now stopped responding to our emails as they can’t suggest anything else and we are left with 2 cameras which are useless.
If you’re serious about home security and CCTV, I would suggest you invest a bit more money and purchase A wired system which records onto a hard drive
UPDATE April 2022
After reaching out to IE Geek again. They have offered me a full refund for both cameras. Not the best product but great customer service !
Easy setup
This is the third Igeek camera I have purchased, all of the battery wireless type. two I have given away as presents, and I will buy more of them for myself. For the cost, ease of setup and quality, I don’t think they can be beaten. The battery duration is great and they are easily charged by USB. One of the cameras I set up outside for a friend and connected via the solar panel, this has worked brilliantly with no need to take down to charge. I fitted one in a caravan and for the time not in use the battery lasted seemingly forever. Obviously the more busy it gets the battery will drain more quickly. No need to pay cloud subscription costs as in some cameras as this will record to your mobile device or the micro SD card purchased separately. In the house I leave it freestanding and can check my home wherever I am. With the detection enabled it will send messages to your mobile device as a warning. Very handy when you are out and worried about security. As mentioned I will buy more of these devices and it gets a full endorsement from me.

Great cameras - no expensive subscription required
I have two of these. One bought a few years ago under a different branding (exactly same camera) and a new one bought a few weeks ago. They’re easy to install and set up, the app works great, and you don’t have to pay a monthly fee for storing footage you don’t want (just install an SD card if you want to save video). You will need a fairly strong wifi connection, but you can always use wifi boosters placed closer to the position of the camera, if you need it.
A great bit of kit that does what it’s supposed to.
A full charge last 3months.
I bought 2 off these cameras to overlap as when I have to charge one the other is still covering the area. Both cameras are connected to 2 phones and a I-pad. They are very easy to set up and I have mine set detection sensitivity 6 from 18:00 – 08:00hrs with recording time off 30seconds and a 5minutes alarm intervals on SD as the colour picture is very good and the mono colour at night is very clear. The zoom on the camera is first class and area the camera is very large. This is a first class product at a very good price, but be aware you have to remove the camera to charge the battery if you do not use the solar panel.
Great price easy to set up
Good price. Great piece of kit. Set up easy and very pleased with its performance so far. Picture quality is very good as is the motion detection. I’ve not used the intercom yet but I’m going to give it a week and probably buy the rotational model as well and a couple of solar panels to power both. Very pleased with this purchase thanks.
Great WiFi Security Camera
Bought 3 of these after buying the ieGeek doorbell camera and I’m not disappointed. These cameras work great and are linked on the same app as the doorbell. Set up is really simple and easy to do. Once they are up and running you can tweak the settings on the app to suit your requirements. I wasn’t sure about having to recharge the cameras but isn’t really a big deal if you can easily access the camera. Battery life depends on how much recording the camera does. Mine seem to last 2-3 months between charges. The app shows you battery levels and WiFi signal strength. I bought some decent SD cards to insert into each camera which means there is no extra costs for cloud storage. The picture quality is great in both day and night and the sound quality is very clear. Overall I highly recommend if you want a cheap and instant CCTV system.
Nice camera
Bought this to cover the rear of my property.
Setup was exceptionally easy and it was connected and up and running in less than 5 minutes.
Build quality seems generally ok and of course the thing with this will be the long term usage and effect the weather will have on it.
For now though this seems a quality device.
The instructions leave a little to be desired in their translation but everything is simple and easy to follow; the app is effective and has everything you really need; still images, video, live viewing etc
Looking at the IR on the unit it is easily capable of covering a 10-15m range, maybe more, and FOV is more than adequate.

Great functionally and well designed
It’s:
– functionally well designed and is small and sleek
– rechargeable batteries appear to be longlasting
– very easy to install and the software seems to support the functional design, which is not always the case (same for its manual)
– price is excellent value for money
– very good low level light recordings
– range of adjustable sensitivity is very good
My only negative is I bought it for outdoor use in a very very dark corner and I assumed at night there’d be a visible (EG. Bright Red light) deterrent for would be criminals. Unfortunately there is non. If it only had had a couple of the above benefits, I would have returned. I now want to make it work for purpose I intended
Great value, solid piece of ki
We felt like we needed a camera to keep an eye on our house after some questionable characters started visiting the neighbours. We chose white so the camera was visible. The camera set up was simple and fixing it to a spot outside the house was simple.
The picture quality was a lot better than we expected and the sound was clear too.
The motion sensitivity was set high and there were about 20 pings and close up screenshots of my ugly mug as I installed the camera but this was easily resolved by adjusting it on the app. We found that ‘6’ was perfect for our needs.
Still tinkering with it but overall very happy and will be buying some more cameras soon.
Simple and easy to set up to use.
I liked the fact it took me about very little time to set up the devise and connect it to my home network. After scanning the code thing to download the app, set up was very straight forward.
The app itself is straight forward to use. I’m not able to compare the product or app to other similar type home CCTV systems but this does what I need it to do and I’m quite impressed. I went for iegeek based on reviews and appearance.
Picture is pretty good, and maybe you can get better quality on other products, but it is still very good.
Sound quality is good and the intercom thing appears set up from the off. Very clear. It also picks sound up from quite a distance.
The app enables you to turn on/off notifications, adjust sensitivity etc., and also turn on/off the motion sensor. So if at home, popping in and out to the garden etc. often you can turn them off to stop getting alerts.
I bought the SD Card and Solar panel as part of the deal and feel I got good value.
I’ll be buying a second camera for the rear garden, and use the enclosed coupon with this product to get a free solar panel.
Quick and easy wifi connection.
The camera was setup with no problems. Using the manual and the CloudEdge software downloaded to my phone from the Play Store.
The live video is instant and crystal clear. Settings can be instantly adjusted from your phone.
Alarm times and recording times are easily adjusted to your preference. Recording can be set for human activity both night/day.
Noticed a spider on the camera lens on the first night but it did not trigger recording.
Only been in use for a few days but everything is positive up to now.
Great budget Cam
Great for the price.
Picture clarity is fair, better than some but not as good as a 500 system but this is to be expected, great as garden/ driveway or in house monitoring.
Battery life is thus far phenomenal, bought on Prime day – 51 days from now, it arrived next day and was charged overnight, It has been on and fitted since this so 49 days approximately, it is still over half on the battery indicator and that is the only time it has been charged so far, so great.
A good purchase for simple security – if you want better quality, play back, and security then get a full system for the full price, this is 8/10 overall, it is fit for purpose and I am happy with it
UPDATE 11/10/21 – Camera is still working great, the only change in the camera is that today is the first time I have had to charge the camera so the battery life is roughly 111days
Perfect does the job for me!
This arrived quickly and promptly.
It’s compact tidy and perfect to see my street view to make me feel a lot safer
I’m amazed as the quality of it and the zoom l love, l can see my cats and call them on the intercom . I’m recommending this l will get another for the garden lm thinking. This will definitely put your mind at ease especially if your away travelling. Love the voice action too
