Solareye Wildlife Camera with Night Vision Motion Activated, 2.7K 48MP WiFi Trail Camera IP66 Waterproof 0.2s Trigger, 26pcs 940nm Infrared LEDs Garden Camera with 32GB SD Card for Monitoring (UK)

I recently bought the Solareye WiFi Wildlife Camera, and it has exceeded my expectations in almost every way. Here are some of the key points I loved about it:Pros:High-Quality Images and Video: The 48MP resolution for photos and 2.7K video quality is impressive. Both are clear and vibrant, capturing details even from a distance, which is fantastic for wildlife enthusiasts like myself who want to capture every detail.WiFi Connectivity: I can connect to the camera via WiFi to check my shots without disturbing the area around the camera or having to remove the SD card. It's so convenient and a nice upgrade from my older trail cameras.Solar-Powered Efficiency: The solar panel feature is a huge plus. Since setting it up, I haven’t needed to change batteries or worry about the camera going dead, even on cloudy days. It’s more eco-friendly and saves money in the long run.Fast Trigger Speed: With a 0.2-second trigger speed, it’s quick enough to capture animals in motion without missing anything. I've been able to catch pictures of fast moving objects and even fast-moving animals without any motion blur.Night Vision Performance: The IR LEDs work great for night shots, and the infrared light is invisible to animals, so they don’t get spooked. The night images are surprisingly detailed, even in pitch-black conditions.Waterproof and Durable: The IP66 waterproof rating means it’s highly resistant to rain, snow, and dust, which is great for outdoor conditions. I’ve left it out in some harsh weather, and it’s held up perfectly.Includes 32GB SD Card: I appreciate that it comes with a 32GB SD card, which saves me from an extra purchase. It’s a decent amount of storage for several days’ worth of footage.Cons:WiFi Range Limitation: The WiFi connection only works within a limited range, so I have to get relatively close to the camera to connect. It’s not a major issue, but something to be aware of if you’re looking to access it from a distance.Overall:For the price and the features it offers, the Solareye WiFi Wildlife Camera is an excellent choice for wildlife scouting and nature photography. The solar charging, high-resolution images, and rapid trigger speed make it ideal for capturing animals both day and night. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to up their game in wildlife observation!

This was surprisingly easy to set up, it all worked first time I tried and I put it outside with the solar panel in the full sun, it has been sufficient to power the camera without using any of the battery energy so far (about a month) you have to be fairly near to the camera to connect to it by wi-fi, ours is attached to the downcomer outside the conservatory and I need to be in the conservatory to connect but I've never had to move the camera as I've been able to check daily on my phone if there are any results. Sadly although I thought I would at least see hedgehogs all so far has been our own cat and a pigeon on two occasions, I even went out and danced myself just for the thrill of having a video on the camera. The control panel displays on my phone so I can see the status of the batteries and I think I could change the hours that the camera is set to be live as well using the app. I haven't needed customer services but have had a couple of helpful emails from the seller. All in all it has been well worth buying.

Easy to set up, good picture and sound. The solar charger has kept it fully charged. Picture could be a little clearer. After service from the overseas supplier was outstanding.

The media could not be loaded. Initial ImpressionsFor the price, you get a lot of value in this camera kit. The camera feels rugged and durable, with strong clips that seem to back up its IP66 rating, though I haven’t tested its waterproofing myself. It also comes with a versatile set of mounting options for both the camera and solar panel. The inclusion of a 32GB micro SD card is a nice bonus and sufficient for getting started.Power OptionsThis camera’s power versatility is a major selling point. It primarily runs via the solar panel, which charges an internal 5000mAh lithium battery. If solar power is insufficient, it draws from this battery, and if that's depleted, it can switch to four AA batteries as a backup. Additionally, it can be powered and recharged via a USB-C cable as a last resort. With these redundancies, it offers an impressively long runtime with minimal maintenance. The camera also allows you to schedule when it’s active (e.g., night-time only), which further conserves power.Real-World UseIn the cloudy UK, the camera cycles through all three power sources before needing intervention. On especially cloudy days, it pulls from the internal battery. I managed to drain it fully only by setting 10-minute video recordings per motion trigger and maxing out the resolution. In such cases, recharging the 5000mAh battery with a portable battery pack and replacing the AAs is a simple solution. For anyone seeking a “set it and forget it” camera, this device is ideal.Image and Video QualityPlease note that the sample video includes the protective film, as I forgot to remove it while exploring the many configuration options! The photo resolution ranges from 2MP to 48MP, and video can be set between 720p and 2.7K. Photos are around 350KB each, and burst mode can capture 2-5 photos per trigger. A 10-second video in 720p requires 2.5-3.5MB, while 2.7K video takes 12-16MB. If you anticipate high activity, upgrading to a 256GB SD card might be wise.ConnectivityThe app initially connects to the camera via WiFi and primarily downloads media over Bluetooth. It provides remote control over nearly all features, including customizable motion-trigger zones.Potential ImprovementThe only feature I’d add is a WiFi network connection for remote battery monitoring and video downloads. A network option would be great for more convenient remote access.ConclusionOverall, this is an excellent camera that offers great value for its price point.
