LaView 4MP Bulb Security Camera 2.4GHz,360° 2K Security Cameras Wireless Outdoor Indoor Full Color Day and Night, Motion Detection, Audible Alarm, Easy Installation, Compatible with Alexa

We have been wanting to get a camera for our back alley for months ever since our neighbor's camera caught some dudes checking their truck and our vehicle to see if they were unlocked late at night. No bueno. We do have some vehicle theft in our area - especially with the alley ways being so private. AND - we have 3 teenage boys - one of which I could see trying to sneak out and be naughty... haha! (Just like his momma used to, let's be real.) I love that this camera was so easy to install - just screw it in and you're good! The only problem for me was that the bottom of the camera by where it screws into the light bulb thing was preventing it from getting it to insert in order to screw it in. I had to remove the light assembly to basically loosen the inner assembly so that it would come out a little to let the camera screw in. That was a bit annoying. Maybe it was just my light fixture...it IS from 1999. The picture is great - as you can see from my picture - and the night vision is really cool too. I ended up purchasing the cloud feature to save my videos. For some reason I thought there may be a way to insert an SD card or maybe send files via bluetooth to my computer. I wasn't super excited about paying extra for the cloud service. And honestly I'm not sure if it saves a certain amount of captured videos via the app that you could download if you wanted? The app is incredibly easy to use and like I said, the whole setup is fantastic. I'm still trying to figure out the motion detection - it goes off every time the trees blow around or if my dogs happen to walk along the fence. I saw something about human detection on the app, but I'm not sure how that works. There is a "do not disturb" function, so I can set it to not send me notifications during the day. Also, there's this "Starlight" function - I think it turns the light on when it detects motion? I promise I've had this for probably a month but just haven't played around with the functions enough. So I'm sure this review is super not as much helpful as it could be. Maybe there's a YouTube video out there about the specifics? There IS a YouTube video for EVERYTHING... I would recommend it - the price is RIGHT for the features and quality! And it connects to Alexa and Google Home. I connected to both (we also have a Google Nest at our front door), but also haven't tried that out either and not sure how it would be helpful. AND, it has a siren! I guess if it alerts you there's motion and you see some very bad people trying to do bad things, you can activate the siren and freak them out. THAT would be FUN!

I think the offering that Laview is putting out is mastering all of the simple aspects of a good camera system as cheaply as possible. On a whim bought this due to a deal without diving into hours of third-party review. Laview mobile application: IOS/Android -Simple to navigate, all the right features, easy to learn, and probably the easiest time I've ever had connecting a wireless device to a mobile application. -Downloaded BlueStacks Android Emulator (Free) for Windows to run the application on my PC as well as my iPhone. -Automation: Super surprised by the out-of-box features of this application, looks like you can do a lot of Camera feature scheduling here. (IE: Turn on motion detection at a given time) Cameras: -Wireless Connectivity: As I mentioned above with the ease of setup, I use an auto-switching 2.4/5ghz Google wifi, these are only 2.4ghz but connected without issue. (Only point this out because other devices aren't as plug-and-play) -1080p these aren't going to give you the best quality at a distance but at a range of about 15-20ft you can make out distinct facial features. -Motion Detection: Works exactly as expected. -Sound Detection: Works great -Night Vision: Low light product is also great here, no complaints. -Video Playback: This is one that I was extremely surprised with, paired with a 64GB PNY A1 Micro SD card. The playback interface, usability, and responsiveness to load and review video was top notch. Considering this is running the playback locally from the device, technology has really come a long way. Note: Says Fat32 sd cards are only supported, the exFat format worked as well. Other Thoughts: -Think you need to keep in mind the price point on these, I spent 250 bucks getting full 360-degree house coverage. A single ring or nest camera can run you 150+ dollars. -None so far, I like to point out that I went and purchased several other products from Laview to bolster this setup. Smart Locks, outdoor light socket cameras, and a smart doorbell. -Utilizing the Outlet Socket adapter on the outdoor lights to plug into outlets in the outdoor soffit outlet or replace a recessed bulb. -Did integrate with Google Home but don't see much functionality there, requires a Google display to interact with the Cameras. -Integrated with Amazon Alexa and you do have Smart Home controls on a phone as well as an Echo Show, this is the way to go. -Only drawback I see is not being able to integrate it with other third-party smart home applications for a single pane of glass. -Buy the PNY 64GB micro sd card (3PK)

The camera quality is clear, and the compact size makes it easy to place anywhere. The app is intuitive, with minimal lag, and the functionality—motion alerts, night vision, and adjustable angles—works perfectly. I feel much more confident about home security with this camera.

I initially bought a different, much cheaper brand, but I couldn’t get the bulb to connect to my Wi-Fi. Adding the device to their app was also painful—the app was confusing and seemed to push you into joining their cloud just to add the device. Since it never connected properly, I returned it and bought LaView instead. The LaView packaging is noticeably better and includes clear instructions (also available for download on their Amazon product page). When powered on, the bulb emits a beeping sound to indicate it’s ready. The app only requires you to create an account, and adding the device is very easy. I received a ‘Person Detected’ notification when it spotted a squirrel. (I am fine turning the sensitivity). I turned on the siren, but it didn’t seem to scare off the squirrel. It’s larger than a regular bulb and doesn’t fit in my wall lighting fixture. I didn’t want it to be exposed, so I bought a shade-style wall lighting fixture to cover it. I just placed an order for a microSD card so I won’t need to use the cloud service.

Merhaba ürünün içinden bağlantı için herşey çıktı hız kamerası beklediğimden daha iyi uygulama da sorunsuz çalıştı

This was such a great camera and amazing purchase for the price its beyond PERFECT motion detection and follows and then retracts to original position SD saves and records easy to use and set up bought a second one the same day after using it. COMES WITH A PLUG FOR DIRECT POWER CONNECTION INCASE YOU DO NOT HAVE A LIGHTBULB on your porch or back porch.

Ok

I tried 5 (yes5) other cameras before this and,for some reason had various problems with them all. Wifi signal, connectivity, sound or video quality. This lightbulb camera gives me everything I need. Good connection, wifi signal strength is 78-80 percent and it’s not really close to my modem. There 2 brick walls between them. It has great picture quality and good night vision. Pan and tilt are smooth, zoom is more than adequate. Sound isn’t very loud but this too is adequate. Set-up was a cinch. Simply connect the adapter provided and plug it in close to your modem. Download the app and follow the directions given. Once set-up you can disconnect from the adapter , plug it into any regular lightbulb socket and that’s it. I have this on my back deck and can keep my eye on the dog, watch the birds at the feeder, rabbits playing. At night film the raccoons and skunks etc. that happen bye. I definitely recommend 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 UPDATE. Camera is set to track people but now it tries to track every snowflake. The alerts are very annoying. Will have to disconnect and maybe buy a different make. The AI on this one is hopeless. Have to go from a 5 star rating to a 1 star rating. The tracking motion is also getting sluggish. Ah well, will try another make.

Why did you choose this product over others?: Very pleased with this. After screwing it into my outside light socket and installing the app on my phone it paired very easily and set up was very simple. The camera works very well at night and the night vision mode gives a really clear picture. I'd happily buy another if I had another outside light socket to fit it in to!
