FOAOOD Outside Wi-Fi Wireless Security Camera with Solar Panel (PTZ 360°) – Professional Review
FOAOOD Outside Wi-Fi Wireless Security Camera with Solar Panel (PTZ 360°) – Professional ReviewThe FOAOOD Outside Wi-Fi Wireless Security Camera with Solar Panel and PTZ 360° functionality is a compelling choice for anyone seeking a reliable, user-friendly surveillance solution for outdoor spaces. After a month of testing, I not only found the camera worth the investment but also decided to purchase a second unit—a testament to its effectiveness and value.Key Features and PerformanceOne of the standout features of this camera is its ease of installation. Even for users without prior experience with surveillance devices, the setup process is straightforward and intuitive. The accompanying free app enhances the user experience, offering seamless control without locking users into expensive monthly subscriptions—a rarity in today’s surveillance market.The camera delivers great image quality, ensuring clear footage day and night. The solar panel is another highlight, enabling the device to function autonomously without frequent battery charges, making it an environmentally friendly and hassle-free option. The 360° pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) capability provides comprehensive coverage, reducing the number of cameras needed to monitor larger areas.Room for ImprovementDespite its many positives, the camera does have a drawback: connection delays when attempting to view real-time footage. At times, the app takes longer than expected to establish a connection with the camera, which can be frustrating, especially during urgent situations. However, this issue doesn’t significantly detract from the overall usability or reliability of the product.VerdictThe FOAOOD Outside Wi-Fi Wireless Security Camera is a well-rounded, affordable solution for outdoor surveillance. Its user-friendly installation, high-quality footage, and absence of mandatory fees make it an excellent choice for homeowners and small businesses alike. While occasional delays in real-time viewing could be improved, the camera’s overall performance and value more than compensate for this minor inconvenience.If you’re in the market for an outdoor surveillance system, this camera is definitely worth the money. After personally testing it for a month, I can confidently recommend it, especially for those seeking a budget-friendly, feature-packed option.Rating: 4.5/5

Amazing Camera!
Picture quality is great, at night there is a motion light that comes on! You can speak through the camera, quality is great , and you can hear clearly ! I love the fact that it is solar powered, no worries about having to charge it! Easy set up! There are some really great features that come with the subscription and at a fair price! The alert notifications allows you to get real time alerts from the app! Camera functionality is great, you can zoom and change its position easily in the app.

Before I install it at a difficult to access permanent location, I wanted to do a full test first and make sure everything is up to my expectation. It’s no fun climbing up drilling holes and redo everything just to refund.And after a full day of test, I can honestly say this camera exceeds my expectation.Parts: Everything you need for installation is included. They even throw in a USB-C cable for you to charge up the camera before using it the first time (after that the solar panel will take care of the charging). How thoughtful it is! One interesting thing is that comparing to many other user manuals, this one has one of the most easiest to understand language 🙂 Be very careful handling the camera. It is quite some weight but very slippery plastic and round. I suggest wearing disposable rubber glove to have a better grip.Set up: Very easy to set up, took about 5 mins. Follow either the manual or step-by-step on the phone app Cloudplus. Remember to charge it up first (until solid blue light) before setting it up. The app is quite easy and straight forward to use for the most parts. Needed to play with it for a while to figure out a few options though.Picture/video quality: I had another camera with HD grade before, which I was already quite satisfied. So I expected this one calling “2K” grade to be a level up. And it does exactly that. I can tell there are more details by choosing QHD in the app. And the picture/video in general are just sharper. Honestly, these days all cameras (regardless of SD, HD, QHD, or whatever D, whatever K you call it) should have no excuse of not showing good quality during day time. It’s a rainy day for my test and you can see the quality is still very good. But what surprises me most is the night time quality from this camera, both the LED (color vision) and the infrared (black and white vision). I included a picture here taken with my phone to show how dark it is for this area. Then a picture with the LED, and another picture with the infrared. The default setting is black and white for general live view but changing to color when it detects and records. Best of both worlds.Functions: It will send an alert to your phone within 2-3 seconds ( I guess it mostly depends on your internet/signal quality) when it detects human movement, and record it for you. And the camera AI seems to be quite accurate (default setting), and you can also choose different sensibility. You also have the option to detect everything that moves (but who wants this?). You can view the recordings anytime. They are stored in the cloud for shorter duration ones, or you can also store them locally in the SDcard for longer duration ones. Just play with it, difficult to explain here. I like the live viewing too and I can take video and picture anytime live. These will be stored in “Album” (uses phone storage). There’s one thing I wish to be improved: the zoom function is done by fingers on phone screen, just like when you browse. It would be easier to use if it were a button included together with those tilt/pan buttons.The best part: the price of this camera is not the cheapest. I usually hesitate with anything over $100 on Amazon. I also cross-shopped some time before pulling the trigger. But the reason is simple – besides the very good quality, you DON’T have to drill into your home and route cable. It’s not always practical and easy to do so. And for the solar part, I did an extensive testing the whole day, and I estimated the number of detect/record cycles were about the same as a typical family with 2 adults and 2 school age kids daily. It’s cloudy most of the time so the solar charging was definitely not at its best, but the battery was just down a few percent at the end of the day. I may come back to update if I find anything good or bad about the solar/battery in long run.Final words: Everything has a cost to pay. And no exception for getting a peace of mind. Just make sure you pay it the right way. And this camera is definitely the right way to me. Happy with my purchase!

Diese Kamera hat meine Erwartungen in jeder Hinsicht übertroffen und bietet zahlreiche Vorteile, die sie zu einer idealen Lösung für die Überwachung meines Grundstücks machen.Zunächst einmal ist die Installation denkbar einfach. Die Kamera kann problemlos an verschiedenen Orten montiert werden und benötigt dank des Solarpanels keine komplizierte Verkabelung.

Die Kamera liefert klare und scharfe Bilder, sowohl bei Tag als auch bei Nacht. Dank der Infrarot-Nachtsichtfunktion kann ich selbst bei völliger Dunkelheit detaillierte Aufnahmen machen. Die Weitwinkelansicht ermöglicht es mir, einen großen Bereich meines Grundstücks zu überwachen, und die Bewegungserkennung funktioniert einwandfrei. Sobald eine Bewegung erkannt wird, erhalte ich sofort eine Benachrichtigung auf mein Smartphone, was mir ein zusätzliches Gefühl der Sicherheit gibt.Ein weiteres Highlight ist die wetterfeste Konstruktion der Kamera. Sie ist robust und widersteht problemlos Regen, Schnee und starken Temperaturschwankungen. Das gibt mir die Gewissheit, dass die Kamera das ganze Jahr über zuverlässig arbeitet, unabhängig von den Wetterbedingungen.Die dazugehörige App ist benutzerfreundlich und intuitiv zu bedienen. Ich kann jederzeit live auf die Kamerabilder zugreifen, vergangene Aufnahmen überprüfen und die Einstellungen nach meinen Bedürfnissen anpassen.

Das integrierte Solarpanel macht sie besonders umweltfreundlich und wartungsarm. Für mich ist sie die perfekte Lösung, um mein Zuhause sicher und geschützt zu wissen.

Premetto che sono già possessore di due telecamere fisse della stessa marca, ho deciso di comprare questa telecamera per coprire un’altra parte del giardino. Questa telecamera è davvero fantastica! È facile da installare e funziona perfettamente. Come le due fisse che già possiedo anche questa si alimenta a energia solare, il che significa che non devo preoccuparmi di sostituire le batterie o di collegarla alla corrente elettrica. Il che è davvero una svolta, non c’è più la schiavitù della manutenzione o la preoccupazione per le batterie. La telecamera ha inoltre una visione notturna a colori e il rilevamento umano PIR, il che significa che posso vedere chiunque si avvicina alla mia casa anche di notte. Oltre a questo, è impermeabile e può resistere alle intemperie e alle condizioni climatiche avverse (ed è successo, quindi posso dirvi che funziona anche con fortissima pioggia). Molto pratica anche l’app in dotazione (di cui vi allego video del funzionamento). Rapporto qualità prezzo eccezionale.
