beturnown Mini Security Camera, Nanny Cam with 180°Rotating Lens, Free Cloud & SD Storage, 4K WiFi Wireless Surveillance, No WiFi Recording, Motion Detection, Auto Night Vision

This mini security camera is so cool, I put behind my lamp and I can here everything in my living room, I put it up above my cabinet and I can see everything in my kitchen, it's very good picture quality for a tiny camera, it picks up conversations very well with clean audio and it is super easy to put up discreetly wherever I need, it holds quite a bit of video too and it's super quick and easy to download the video and put in new or freshly cleaned sd cards.

Doesn’t hold any charge. The picture quality is great if you have studio lighting. Beyond that, it’s crap. There is definitely no night vision. The speed of the feed is about average. There is no sound. The ability to move the lense up or down is nice, but it’s limited in the potions it holds, definitely doesn’t oscillate. It gets warm quickly and you have to subscribe to a cloud system if you want to record beyond the “free-ish” trail that costs $0.99. They were able to get it here fast, but if you are looking for quality over getting it fast, I’d buy elsewhere. Good things come to those who wait.

I got the Beturnown Mini Security Camera, and it’s honestly a great little device! The 180° rotating lens is super useful, and the 4K video quality is clear, both day and night. I love that it comes with free cloud & SD storage, so I don’t have to pay extra for saving footage. Motion detection works well, and the night vision is automatic, which is a big plus. Setting up the WiFi took a little patience, but once connected, it ran smoothly. Battery life could be better, so I keep it plugged in for longer use. The audio is okay but not the best. Overall, it’s a solid mini camera that does the job well. Great for home security, nanny cam, or even pet monitoring! 👍 ⭐ 4.5/5 – Worth it!

Trying to process a weeks, or even one days worth of videos through the app is highly frustrating and extremely time consuming. Because I'm working on my iPhone (13 pro), it doesn't recognize the Fat32 formatting of the microSD, so I can't bulk download the videos to a drive or laptop. There's also no method for this within the app. I'm left stuck with watching one clip at a time. The app only allows 10 minute (or less) sections to be downloaded at a time. In 24hr mode, the camera shoots every 5 minutes and the clips are broken up into 5 minute (or less) blocks you can download. Scrubbing for content to download within a clip does not work. Each time I try it, the slider snaps back to the original starting position. Each time you tap or drag in the app (or simply watching a clip), the listing of clips resets to the last clip of the day. That doesn't sound like a problem until you have hundreds of clips to scroll back through to get to the one you were viewing - on a phone screen! Ugh!! Also, the fact that the app breaks in to your viewing (usually after clicking on 3 or more clips), to promote their cloud service, slows the whole process down even more. Needless to say, the app is not perfect. Connecting with each camera can be a hassle as well. I bought these because they don't need the internet to connect to your phone. They supposedly connect through your hotspot (sometimes only after great frustration), so you have to be in the room to view your files or live through the lens. Once connected the app is mostly intuitive and the camera starts recording. Sometimes after a period of being disconnected, when trying to reconnect, you have to delete the device in your list of devices before it’ll reconnect to it. I know, sounds stupid, and it is, but it seems to work every time. It’s this issue that makes it useless to rename a device for custom identification. The app will give it a unique name. Originally, the only way to delete clips was to reformat the card. The last upgrade now includes individual or select all switches to delete (thanks, finally!!). Now they need to allow for downloading all files in one swoop and the capacity to download clips longer than 10 minutes. As well as make it so the clip you’re viewing is always the one in focus on your screen! Another word about connecting - Be sure to look in your WIFi settings for the little camera's WIFi broadcast. You have to set your WIFi connection to it in order to fully connect with the camera. They talk about hotspot and bluetooth and a funky looking @xxxxxx WIFi signal in the manual. Just know you're not connected until you look for that signal in your WIFi setting. I’ve also found that the cameras will connect without turning on my Hotspot. Just use (the camera’s) WIFi. Image quality is good on a small phone screen but is well broken up on anything larger. Details are lost the instant you try to zoom in. Lighting changes have good response time and so does motion sensing. In total darkness your subjects better be close because the IR lights on this camera don't shoot far. They also fog the image, making it near impossible to see any action. I found removing the plastic shield they have over the lights (and around the lens), totally clears the optic for vastly better vision at night. It's easy to pop off with a fingernail. It’s also absolutely critical there’s nothing in the immediate foreground in the view. One other good thing is that these cameras allow use of 256gb cards. Shooting 24 hrs a day for a week however, consumed only about 5 percent of the 256 gigs. File sizes are generally pretty small per clip. Beyond all of that, these aren't too bad for what you get. As long as you're not looking for 4k quality.

bought this mini camera with the intention of discreetly monitoring certain areas of my house, and I was pleasantly surprised. Its size is really compact, fits in the palm of your hand, and can be easily hidden among common objects. 📷 Image quality: The recording is quite clear for its size. It has HD resolution and is clearly visible both day and night, thanks to infrared night vision that works even in complete darkness.

Pretty easy to set up. The image capture is decent and clear. Other reviews have mentioned that when it's plugged in it's on all the time. When it's disconnected from the power cable, you get about 45-60 minutes of battery life. The app is relatively easy to navigate and it's easy to set up a memory card if needed instead of cloud recording.

Neither camera nor the APP required for its use, worked. The camera could not be linked to the APP by both means listed in app (app could neither scan qr code nor could it find the camera by manually entering its UID) Additionally the app could not detect the camera via blue tooth. Customer service was unable to determine the cause and I mysteriously was blocked from messaging customer service after they were unable to determine if the cause was the camera or app. I tried every method of fix they suggested.

The size of this camera makes an ideal train cam. One can mount it on a car/engine (image) to get great layout FPV videos or place it on the layout for scenic action videos (another example). The video quality is good enough for these purposes, and the WiFi installation via the app worked as advertised. Night vision is useful to for live night train FPV videos. The videos themselves are AAC decoded, which some older video processing like windows Movie maker cannot handle without conversion, but that is a minor issue.
