AOQEESecurity Camera Outdoor Wireless Solar - 2K CCTV Camera Systems, Battery Operated Home/House Security, PIR Detection, IP65, Colour Night Vision, TF card/Cloud Storage, Works with Alexa S1

This is an excellent camera. It is simple to install as no power feed is required. The camera is easi;y fixed with a supplied template, rawl plugs and screws. I have put the camera above my garage and it monitors the driveway and front of house.The picture quality is really good and it captures audio as well. you can also sound an alarm and set it to alert you. I have subscribed to the Wansview cloud storage and can replay any alerts. if you don’t want to use cloud storage you can install a minisd card.When you look at the alerts it shows if triggered by a human which is useful on a windy day as the movement could set off multiple alerts. You can adjust the sensitivity as required. The solar charging is very effective and has never fully discharged. Overall, this is a great camera and very good value.

This looked like an ideal solution for placing a camera in a location where power is difficult to supply, as long as that location has a good view of the open sky.We have several cameras from the Wansview/Galayou/Cinnado/AOQEE family, and all are accessible via the Wansview Cloud app. We already have a couple of the R2 battery cameras at our holiday flat overseas, and they are powered by separate solar panels, and work flawlessly with quick and easy remote access from the UK via the app. This new S1 camera has the benefit of the solar panel being built in, at the expense of being a bit larger.Setup was very easy as we already use the app, and the camera worked fine. One thing, there is a small piece of tape on the front that you’d expect would pull off a protective film. Unfortunately the tape comes off easily and at first I thought the protective film was missing. Several days later I found that the film was still in place but virtually invisible. Now it’s off, the image is slightly better!In the UK this camera will need to be sited carefully to maximise solar charging. We initially installed ours on the garden fence close to some very tall trees and the battery gradually discharged as it was using more power than it was generating. On the open patio however, it charged and remained at or near 100% the whole time, at least in these summer months. Only time will tell if this camera will remain charged during a British winter.Build quality seems good, the charging and SD card slots are covered by a rubber bung and the rest of the camera seems well sealed. Again, only time will tell, but our Galayou (Wansview) R2 battery cameras, with separate solar panels, have been in operation for about a year out in the open on the roof terrace of our holiday home.In summary, a nice design, well built, decent quality and easy to use.Edit - condensation has formed on the inside of the lens, see photo.

Honestly, I couldn’t be happier with this solar-powered security camera. From the moment it arrived, everything about it just worked. The setup was incredibly straightforward – I had it connected and running in less than 10 minutes. The instructions were clear, and the app guided me through everything step by step.Speaking of the app, it’s genuinely one of the best I’ve used for smart tech. It’s smooth, intuitive, and lets you customise alerts, view live footage, and scroll back through events without any hassle. The notifications come through quickly and I love being able to check in from anywhere.The image quality is excellent too – both day and night. The HD clarity is way better than I expected for the price. Even in lower light, the night vision picks up a lot of detail.What really sold me though is the solar power. It means I could install it exactly where I wanted for the best view, without worrying about running power cables or being near a socket. It charges well even in typical UK weather, and I haven’t had to think about the battery once since putting it up.If you’re looking for a reliable, wire-free, solar security camera with a brilliant app and crystal-clear video, I’d definitely recommend this one

Good camera for price, solar and batt work well never have flat battery which was a concern with using solar in uk. Image quality is reasonable but could be improved specially when zooming in. Could do will upper lid to prevent rain sitting on lens . Very easy to install and use, app is okay but do get pop ups asking to upgrade or purchase subscription but annoying. Overall reasonable camera, good price and easy to set up.
