Pros & Cons
Pros
For the price, it's fantastic. Video is clear and the hd is very clear. I have the front camera inside the house looking out a screened window and the picture is still good.
The camera is wireless and can be used remotely. The camera can also be used on wifi or remotely.
Amcrest has a quick tutorial here. Just get the ip off the camera in the app and add it to their desktop app. The siren is another great feature that can be turned on by motion or toggled on the app.
Pir and motion detection works really well. The motion sensing works great! The amcrest smart home app is decent.

Highlights
Quality
The quality of the camera is great, it has microsd slot, has ability to mount and even a light.

Conclusionthis was definitely a great purchase for the price.
You can choose to store your recordings on the cloud for a fee, or locally on an sd card at no extra cost.
For $5 a month, you get unlimited motion detection for 7 days with extended recording when triggered.
Shipping
We got a quick reply that was helpful.
Notifications are promptly delivered to my phone, allowing me to promptly see what caused the alert.
Shipping was fast and package was well packaged when arrived.
Competitiveness
As expected, this works better than the cheaper baby cam.
I'm not at all sure why the amcrest team is turning people away from buying this camera for their blueiris servers, i have 2 of... Read More
I'm not saying it's perfect but as far as value and quality i can honestly say that it's worth the investment.
