Pros & Cons
Pros
Video quality and color accuracy is better than any of my comparable webcams. Works on an app and can show multiple cameras. If you are looking for a webcam that you can view on mobile devices and web browsers, this is it!
Amcrest has a well documented rest api that allows to fully use the device with third-party software. The webgui has some very nice features, so i recommend using that be default. There's an easy to use ready-make app for those who just want it to wor... Read More
The only remaining issue is this '16x digital zoom' no extra power plug/wires and much less expensive than purchasing the poe version!

Highlights
Quality
The camera is excellent, very clear picture, and very durable.
Excellent product, i have had from the same brand since 2015 and i just bought more for more coverage
I have 4 amcrest cameras and 2 of them stopped working after i changed the location where i want it to be.
Got this after i dropped and broke one while moving it.
Price
These cameras work very well for the price.
Competitiveness
It's only 1080p resolution yet that's more than enough for most purposes.
Haven't tested its sound features but i'm assuming they're adequate.
