Vicohome Security Cameras Wireless Outdoor, 2K Battery Powered WiFi Cameras for Home Security with AI Motion Detection, Spotlight Color Night Vision, IP66 Weatherproof 2-Way Talk Siren Alarm, 2 Pack

For the price point this camera is one of the best I have owned. I have 1200.00 invested in the Blink Cameras and synch module. Blink cameras run 99.00 per camera. I am slowly replacing my Blink cameras with this one. One of the best features with this camera compared to blink is that when you open the app on your smart phone you have an instant video feed of whatever the camera is pointing at. You dont have to refresh the camera to get a photo. Sometimes when seconds counts you do not want to have to wait 30 seconds or longer for Blink to refresh the image from the cloud. Crystal clear picture with 2 ways audio. You have to charge the camera about every 14 days with a USB cable but it only takes about 2 hours to charge. My camera has been in the rain and snow and it works like a champ.

Easy to set up. I have it sitting in a potted plant near the front door. It captures people approaching from about 20 feet away. It is well camouflaged so they are not aware it is recording their arrival. Has great sound quality and night vision with low light near the front door. It keeps the recordings for a month without a subscription and can also be downloaded. In my opinion it is better than a door cam because they are not aware they are being recorded. I charge it only once a month. I live in the 1st condo on the ground floor so it records about 20 to 30 times a day/night as people and animals walk by. With fewer captures the charge would last a longer time. Would certainly buy it again. Great product for the price. Been using it for a month.

I have an Abode home security system. I bought 3 indoor/outdoor cameras to be used outdoors with the package, but I mistakenly assumed the Abode I/O cameras were rechargeable battery-powered cameras like the Abode doorbell camera. Nope. They have to be connected by USB-C cable to an electrical outlet. I should've read the fine print. So, I needed an extra outdoor camera and decided to buy this one after reading multiple reviews. I believe I misplaced the instruction booklet after I first opened it, but no matter. There was a QR code to scan which took me to the Vico Home app download. The app has the installation instructions, but this is pretty simple to install. The Vico Home app also guides you through pairing the camera with your Wi-Fi and set up. I cannot say enough times how much easier it was to install this camera and connect it through the app than the Abode cameras and devices were. The Abode was a giant pain in the butt to connect devices through their app. Every device was a struggle, some devices didn't work, and others wouldn't work until they had firmware updates. Even then, it was still a slow process (up to half an hour) and took 3-5 attempts (one took over 10 attempts!) before it would work. This app is highly intuitive and simple to use (MUCH, MUCH SIMPLER THAN THE ABODE APP), and I had my camera connected and running within 3 minutes. I can delete unwanted video so much easier than Abode. It has a select all feature that allows you to delete all video clips at once. This camera has an alarm, and the notification that detects motion has a simple link to click to activate the alarm without having to search through the app to do so. Or, you can set your camera's alarm to go off for 5-10-15 seconds anytime motion is detected. You can talk to & hear the other person. You can even turn on a light to illuminate a dark area to record it to view live. You can set the camera to black and white mode but it will switch to color when the light is activated. Or you can leave it in color mode all the time. I leave one camera in B&W mode because the area is dark and you can't see it very well on live view without turning on the light when it is in color mode. That said, I prefer the color mode when recording people so it doesn't wash out their faces like B&W can do. The idea is to give the police good video of a burglar's face. It's hard to do that in B&W mode. My only complaint is the speaker on the camera isn't very loud so they may not hear you clearly through the camera when you speak. I would also prefer it be 5GHz-capable since I have two 5 GHz channels and only one 2.4 GHz. But it works well regardless. Overall, this is a great camera system and I plan to buy 3 more for all 4 sides of the house. I may update this review later to report on the camera battery life. UPDATE: I bought 4 more of these cameras for my home's exterior, plus an Allweviee PTZ camera here on Amazon that uses the same Vico Home app. I'm sure all these cameras come from the same factory in China. Anyway, I now have full coverage around my house. The Vico Home app had the PTZ controls for the camera as soon as I installed it. It also allows for multiple presets, so I can make the PTZ go where I want it in one tap. Ultimately, I would like to integrate all these cameras with the Abode system, if possible. I haven't yet played around with the Abode system enough to know if I can, although I doubt these cameras will integrate. Regardless, it still alerts me to the exterior motion around my house and does it more rapidly than my Abode doorbell camera does. I can activate the camera's alarm with the quick touch of a link in the app's motion detected notification. I can activate my home alarm remotely with the push of a button if needed, and it's monitored. The process is pretty seamless in spite of this camera being on a separate app. So far, the first camera I set up still shows a full charge 12 days later. My Abode doorbell cam is down to 81% during the same time. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase and I would recommend this to anyone. UPDATE 11/27/23: I'm still very satisfied with this camera. But I want anyone who reads this teview to know, the 2-way talk function is mostly useless. It's not just this camera; it's the same with most cameras I've used in my security system. The speakers are not loud enough, even on full volume, indoors or especially outdoors. If you saw a criminal on your camera and you called out to them, they likely won't hear you no matter how loudly you speak/yell into your phone. That feature is worthless. The siren is loud enough, but the speech function is not.

It's a great security camera for the past 9 months I've owned it. Easy to set up and I've been happy with the performance. I live on a busy street and the more it records movements, the faster the battery gets used up. I have to charge mine once every week and it takes several hours to charge. My camera is mounted on a separate 1 car garage about 50 ft away from the house and it picks up about 50% of the house's wifi which hasn't been a problem. The speaker works well but not really loud. Video is great day and night.

I would not consider myself a techy and I was able to install this camera all by myself. The camera picture is super clear and this was super easy to install and download the app. I knew I didn’t want to hardwire a camera and this works perfectly with just downloading the app and installing the camera with four screws. Super easy for someone who’s not used to doing these types of things.

Al principio todo excelente muy bien, la batería dura mucho! Pero ahora no puedo ver las funciones porque los anuncios obstruyen los íconos y por fuerza te quieren obligar para poder usar la aplicación. Así que mejor busquen otras opciones

Purchased these as I live at the back of the duplex I’m in and don’t have a street or front view so never know if someone is here until they knock. I put one up at the front over my garage and one at the main side entrance to my unit. I LOVE them. Easy to set up, very reasonably priced, they have voice and light and even an audible alarm I can set off from my phone if I see anyone suspicious on the property. Picture is extremely clear, as is the sound. Very happy I bought them! Will update 6 months from now if anything changes 😊

I got this on sale, but the full price point is pretty nice, too. I needed an inexpensive camera for an occasional specific situation (when someone is at the door while I'm working on the yard), so I didn't want to pay for a full security system or doorbell camera, since it wouldn't be used much. Turns out I'm using this camera way more than I expected because it is a great little device. Positive points: -Video is clear, with a wide viewing angle. -WiFi connectivity is reliable, and I can access the app from anywhere, which means I can also use this as a nanny cam for my pets, or as a Ring doorbell replacement when I'm expecting a package but I'm out running errands. -Two-way sound, so I can have conversations through the app. -Motion detection is great. I use the free version of the app, so I get notifications for any motion at all, but there's an option for an app subscription to get only smart notifications instead. I'd strongly recommend that if you're using the camera all the time so you don't get inundated with notifications on a windy day, haha. -There's an alarm that is obnoxious as heck, which is perfect if you're needing to scare something away from the camera area. -Battery charge seems to last a long time, though I haven't measured the specific length of time. Note that if you install this on a wall somewhere, you'll need to be able to easily USB charge it if you have the rechargeable version. The camera unscrews from the base pretty easily, so if it's in easy reach, you'll be good. -The company checked in with me to see if I was having any issues they could help with, totally unprompted, so customer service seems good, too. Overall, I'm super happy with this purchase. I know it's a bit of a gamble to buy inexpensive electronics online, so I hope this review helps anyone else mulling it over!

Excellent product and very user friendly app for using the cameras, good quality cameras and very nice picture quality, customer service from the company is very helpful and easy to deal with!

This is a piece of garbage. I set it up and it worked for 2 months. Then I was recharging the battery for the second time (first time worked good), only the green light comes on showing the battery is charged but will not record. Shut of power, used pin supplied to reset. Still would not record. Hold down power and waited for blue light to come on incase internet connection not connected. Everything I did, there was only the green light. No recording. Why did it work so well after first charge and then not on the second charge. Frustrating no support. Emailed the support: [email protected] no answer. No phone number. Sending product back.
