Kasa 2K QHD Security Camera Pan/Tilt, Starlight Sensor for Color Night Vision, Motion Detection for Baby & Pet Monitor, SD/Cloud Storage, Works with Alexa & Google, Free Expert Support (KC410S)

I purchased 2 of these security cameras to use in my apartment. I have one located at the front door and the other at the back door. They work PERFECTLY! I did purchase the yearly plan and have had no issues pulling up any videos.When I originally set them up, I had the cameras move with whatever it was recording. and found that the camera would get "stuck" after a while. I ended up just keeping them still - so I wouldn't miss any activity. I appreciate that I can adjust the settings and set it to record what I want it to record. The "people" and "sound" feature is amazing! My cameras connected to my wi-fi easily and I was able to start recording instantly!My vehicle was recently hit and my camera caught the footage! Without the footage, I don't think the body shop would have realized the severity of the damage! I could even zoom in on the other driver and see that he WAS on his phone when he hit my car!.The videos are very clear, the app is easy to navigate, it was very easy to set up my cameras, and I have been using them for almost 4 years!I don't use the night vision - as I have my cameras sitting inside my window and the reflection would mess with the quality of the video. I did have to pull the screen on my window up to increase visibility.I also love the fact that I'm able to "drop in" with my voice on live recordings. Sometimes I have to leave my pup at home alone while I'm at work. I'll set one of the cameras to watch inside my apartment and I love that I can push a button and talk to him while I'm away!Overall - these cameras are AMAZING! Especially for the price that I paid for them!

Tried a WYZE v4 first but turns out it was about as useful a camera as a brick would be.It would NOT connect to my WIFI from either of my routers(I have a Xfinity modem/router but it's old so I bought a Netgear Nighthawk some years ago to boost the signal at a one time cost rather than renting extra equipment every month from Xfinity cause they refuse to replace anything that's outdated), it would NOT get detected by the WYZE app whether I used the same wifi signal or not so I couldn't even troubleshoot it since the app didn't know it existed in the first place. To make matters worse it costs $45 which is the most expensive brick I ever owned in my life so I returned it for a full refund and decided to try 1 more time with a cheaper but comparable camera. That's when I picked this up.I went in a skeptic assuming I would have the same problems as I always did with WYZE(tried a v3 or maybe v2 years ago, same problem as the v4 so I guess WYZE is just incapable of actual improvement and favors dumb gimmicks instead. The only thing that changed was the app layout which admittedly LOOKS better now but looks can be deceiving...)Turns out I was wrong and NOT every camera on Amazon is an overpriced pile of junk! This camera is half the price, connected immediately with 0 delays and functions exactly as advertised. This cameras App has performed nearly perfectly and I can even move this camera FAR from my router without any impact on the signal quality. I can keep my phone on 5G and STILL use EVERY feature on the app. I can also be far away from my router, house, and this camera without losing any features. That means I can get notified of activities, pan/tilt manually, toggle NV, change app settings/schedules, set up to 4 viewpoints, set detection zones in said viewpoints, record manually, turn the status LED on/off, download recorded activities(manual recordings OR detection-based recordings) and Etc...The cloud service is cheap but in a GOOD way. Only $3/month per device(up to 4) or $10/month for up to 10 devices which is extremely affordable.The quality of videos is very good IMO although I do wish the Frame rate was a little higher(I don't KNOW the exact Frame Rate but I'm a big time Gamer who just loves loves LOVES to toggle his FPS display ON and set it to high accuracy mode.) Based on what I have seen so far I think it's about 10-15 FPS so really fast movements will look like a smudge but natural movements shouldn't have that problem. It might not be the BEST option for monitoring(I don't know WHAT is cause this is only my 3rd attempt at finding a decent camera for basic monitoring but it's gone above and beyond my expectations at this pricepoint.) I'm actually about to get 2 or 3 more of these once I finish and submit my updated review.Some notes:When you plug it in for the first time it will probably start moving suddenly on it's own, this is NORMAL. It's a way to test the motor and range of motion for the pan/tilt feature and can be done manually in the app as well. I've moved to different outlets twice now and it has not done that on it's own either time leading me to believe it's only a one-time automated check up of sorts.By coincidence, I found one minor flaw on the app which I'm not sure was a fluke or an actual Bug. I was watching a live video feed and tried to manually record something I wasn't sure would trigger motion detection but apparently it DID and my fool self forgot about the minor delay so it popped up in my notification panel "Activity detected on ___" but did not appear in the app right away so I refreshed it. When I went to reciew download it

For the price, this is truly the best camera to get for monitoring the house. The set up was so easy, and you don’t have to pay for the subscription to keep your footage recordings as long as you buy an SD card (they’re sold separately but relatively cheap, I got two 128gb SD cards for $24). Anyways, the quality is very good, even the night vision is clear. You can talk through the camera on the app, also. Only downside is that the notifications that pop up aren’t always accurate; sometimes it’ll say “person detected” but it’s actually your pet (this has happened with my cat walking in front of the camera); now it will detect an actual person if someone did walk into view of the camera; truly a small flaw that isn’t a big deal to me, but just thought I’d throw that out there. The audio quality is pretty good, too. My roommate went into my room to check on my cat while I was out of the own and I could hear every word she was saying through the camera. Also you can view the entire room from the app on your phone, and it’s worth the price if you want a discreet camera. It’s pretty small so it’s easy to hide on a high bookshelf or on a low tv stand. I really wanted a camera to keep an eye on my place while I’m out of town so I’m very happy overall.
