Kasa 1080p Indoor Pan/Tilt Wired Security Camera - Works as a Baby & Pet Monitor, Motion Detection & Tracking, 2-Way Audio, Night Vision, Subscription-Free Local Storage or Optional Cloud, EC70

EXTREMELY EASY TO USE • COST-EFFECTIVE • VERSATILE • SATISFYING: I happened to buy a 4-pack of Kasa smart plugs recently. After experiencing firsthand how easy it was to integrate them into my existing and very average home Wi-Fi system - not to mention tie their control into existing Amazon smart devices such as my Echo Dot and EchoPop - I simply couldn't resist the urge to (join the rest of you in the 21st century and) purchase a camera. APPLICATION: I wanted an easy to buy, implement, use and maintain a remote controllable and reasonably 'smart' surveillance system - just to keep an eye on things that happen on the street. I learned very quickly the Kasa camera system has features that enable it to not only track motion but specifically people when desired (see Activity Zones IMG) ; features include various levels of tracking up to and including "Patrol Mode" which will cause the camera to rotate through the four savable "scenes" at the specified interval(s) allowing for 360° monitoring from just one camera. Even has NIGHT VISION. I actually bought two cameras and haven't even set up the second one because the first is already doing so much! TIPS & TRICKS: Make sure you purchase a reasonable quality 64 GB mini SD card. That is the maximum size card this model of Kasa camera can utilize. TO INSERT THE CARD: using the mobile interface pan the camera upward until the mini SD card port and reset buttons are exposed (see IMGs.) Insert the card LABEL UP and press until firmly clicked and secured in its final position. I have been running the camera "24/7" (the actual mode is known as "24/7 Monitoring") at maximum resolution of 1080p for ~ 3 days and have used less than 25% of the 64 GB capacity. (see IMGs) HOW TO SAVE EVIDENCE: Should something unfortunate occur and you find yourself in the position of needing to save that which your camera captured you can simply click on "24/7 recording" & move the saved timeline bar to the requisite point, wait for playback to start and click the 🔴 in the lower right-hand portion on the playback screen. (Note: Give the video recall some time - after all it is the camera having to go back and read saved data while still recording and saving new data, transmit saved data through the Wi-Fi network to your phone and ultimately save it in a new location. Even the fastest systems will take a moment.) Following these steps will save a video of what was recorded that you will find in your video gallery. *There is a portion of the app allocated to Activity Alerts Tracking which is available with a Kasa Care subscription; I do not have that subscription thus I am unable to speak to those features at this time but imagine they facilitate easier activity recall and saving. WHAT TO DO NOW: Click purchase. 😊 Seriously this thing is fabulous especially for the price point. Off the top of my head some of the easiest applications I can think of would be keeping an eye on your pets or your kids while they're at home or having an extra pair of eyes when needed. *** Keep in mind this review is written from the standpoint of someone seeking easy applications and easy use - If you are looking for something that is sturdy, has own/redundant power, data storage and signaling capacity, is designed to survive not only adverse weather/climate but also potential tampering this is not the device I would recommend.

Works great to keep on the on pets, easy setup, great ok picture and love the ability to talk.

Love this camera,works great. Can see clearly in my kitchen and livingroom 360 degrees which is handy. Can see what everyone's up to when I am away from home. You can talk and be heard too. Great price. Glad I got this camera. Works on Wifi.

I picked up this Kasa indoor security camera, and overall it’s been a solid addition to our setup. Initial setup was quick and easy, and the camera itself feels durable and well-made. Mounting it to the wall or ceiling is straightforward once you get past one small hurdle. The main reason I gave this a 4 out of 5 is the mounting clip. Removing the clip from the base of the camera was more difficult than expected and took a few minutes to figure out so I could mount it the way I wanted. It’s doable, but not very intuitive. Once installed, the camera looks clean, and the app is easy to use. One of my favorite features is the ability to save up to four different camera angles using what Kasa calls activity zones. I use these all the time since I have them set for every angle I want to monitor. We mounted ours on the ceiling, and flipping the view upside down in the app was simple. For around $20, this is a solid indoor camera with some great features. If you’re okay with spending a little extra time during mounting, it’s a good value overall.

This indoor pan/tilt security camera delivers clear 1080p HD video and covers wide areas thanks to its motorized pan and tilt functions — you can rotate the view remotely for better room coverage. Night vision works up to about 30 ft, which helps capture activity in low light, and motion detection alerts show up in the app so you’re aware of movement without constantly checking the feed. Two-way audio lets you listen and speak through the built-in mic and speaker, which is handy for checking in on pets or family from a distance. Local storage via a microSD card gives a way to save footage without mandatory subscription fees, though optional cloud plans are available if you want history and backups. Setup was straightforward with the Kasa Smart app, and compatibility with Alexa and Google Assistant means you can view the live feed on smart displays. The pan/tilt controls are responsive enough for everyday use, though advanced tracking isn’t as polished as higher-end models. Overall, it’s a solid choice for casual home monitoring, pet check-ins, or general security without paying premium pricing.

Rovic The service help guy was incredible helping me connect the camera to Wi-Fi and getting it all set up and running. It's a wonderful camera. He was a wonderful service tech and did a great job. I give it five stars

Gran cámara con fácil instalación. La visión nocturna es una de las mejores que he podido apreciar. Muy recomendable

Not bad but not as we expected

Muy fácil de instalar, se ve muy nítida la imagen, además se pueden escuchar las voces o ruidos que haya en el lugar y también se puede hablar por medio de la cámara; excelente compra! La recomiendo mucho!

Yes, these do come with a US style wall charger but work with any USB charger It means I can keep my plan of Kasa in one house and Tapo in the other Makes it easier to identify even though the Tapo app can separate them

Have been using these cameras for years and installed on every corner of my house. Best choice in home security.
