Impressive
Really bought this camera because it was on sale. But what I got was fantastic. I have cameras inside my house that cost over $200 that are not this good. I have it mounted outside to cover my lower deck and yard. It is truly amazing quality. Day or night. The follow motion feature is great. I put in an sds card for storage .. works great. Image quality is impressive. Ease of use is excellent. Going to order another for other corner of house. Highly recommend this camera.

Terrific camera and value
We purchased this to view our farm animals. Works great, with fantastic picture quality. (so much fun viewing what those naughty goats are up to at night – ha ha) After about 5+ months it DID stop working (It wouldn’t power on) I contacted customer service – and they very quickly replaced it (it *was* under warranty) 5 stars for that too. (the not powering on turned out to be the AC cable it came with, not the actual camera – regardless, it was resolved quickly and satisfactorily)

Good cameras
Bought two of these cameras on March of 2023. Great pictures love that I can pan from my phone. Its now March 2024, one camera stopped panning correctly. Otherwise it works great. I contacted the company explained the problem and they, without any hassle, are replacing the camera. This model is not longer available so they are sending an updated one!!! Great for me because the warranty is about to expire, like im 2 weeks!!! Thank you Dekco for replacing my camera!!!

Why did I wait so long!
Easy mount, pick and constant hookup and it works better than I ever thought. Lights, tracking, audio the right price and I donât know how I can get this quality for the $! I plan on buy 3-4more because they are perfect for keep up with our property.

Reliable
This is a nice “wired” security camera. Has the bells & whistles of a more expensive brand/model. Took a bit for me to get it hooked to the network but that was user error & no fault of the unit. Has “talk, 360 mode, record capabilities. ‘Had a wireless model but recharging every 3 days was a pain. Would definitely buy again.

UPDATED – SD card not found, motion detection too sensitive – UPDATED
UPDATED 3/9/23. I have SD cards in each of my three cameras. One stopped working. This means it still takes still pictures to represent a notification but I can’t play any recorded video. It always says SD card doesn’t exist. This same camera also stopped responding to the remote controls that allow me to change the position of the camera. It’s useless. Just look at this pic of a fox. I wanted to play the recording to see if it’s showing interest in my fence. My cats freely roam inside that fence. I can’t tell because the video won’t play back. It did 3 days ago so WTF? I can’t count on it.
My other two cameras are hit or miss. Sometimes the SD card can be played back. Other times it cannot. I have done nothing at times and it starts working again.
I have also tried rebooting, deleting and re adding the cameras. Even if it worked to correct the issues, the same problems come back again. I cannot count on the camera actually recording video so should something happen where my home is robbed, for example, I have no confidence I will have a record of it.
UPDATED 5/22/22. The company reached out and were very generous to provide me with a new camera and SD card. I tested and so far it’s working flawlessly. I’ve raised from 2 to 4 stars because I am very happy with the service provided. The camera records quality video and I love that i can change the angle of the view remotely. I stand by my 4 star review, however, because it is still overly sensitive which means I turn off alerts entirely. It’s time consuming to proactively scroll through hundreds of images to find the few times it actually captured something. I use my cameras to capture wildlife that comes close to my cat’s enclosure and to capture my cats attempting escape so that I know if it has any weak points. What’s important to me, is that I have the footage should i need it.
ORIGINAL
I want to love this camera but it’s so frustrating. “SD card not detected” had been a common error that’s getting worse. One day it works, the next day it can’t be found – and I’ve made zero changes so who knows why. And then if I just wait awhile, it’s detected again. However, now it’s failed and have come back for 3 days, so far.
Here’s what happened: Everything broke on one camera – meaning, I couldn’t even get love video – so I moved my working camera to that spot. The only variable change being that I unplugged it to move it. Plugged it in, got live video and was so happy until an event got logged. When I went to play it back “No SD card detected”.
I cannot figure out how to contact support. Within the app there are faqs that do not address this issue. Since it doesn’t detect the card, I can’t reformat it and don’t have an error to Google.
The other issue is that the motion detection is hyper sensitive. A piece of dust can set it off. I could learn to move with this (you might as well have continuous recording on if it’s raining, though). I have wyze cameras that don’t get set off by rain or really anything but moving animals, people or vehicles so I know it’s possible to have far better tech. I turned off notifications due to constant alerts with false positives. It means scrolling through hundreds of pictures to see if anything notable happened. And yes, I played with motion detection settings and turned off certain blocks in the viewing area. Didn’t matter.
I also wish there was a way to disconnect the camera from it’s mount. If I have to reset the camera, I have to unscrew it from where I’ve placed it. Super annoying and contributes to procrastination of troubleshooting and make me less interested in investing. These issues are why I bought wyze outdoor cameras. That’s $250 that this company could have had. But I still want the two that I have to work!
Finally, the cloudedge app never closes and drains my phone battery. I have Android. I always get notifications to force close it.
What I love is the ability to remotely move the camera angles. I also think they are attractive.
I would love an email address where I can submit a help ticket.

Deco security camera
But I had half my camera over 2 years. They worked great just had a small problem and reach out to the Deco security service. People and they sent me a new one to replace my old 1. They work good and I would suggest these to be used if someone needs a home security camera, easy to set up and easy to work.

Amazing for the price!
We got these on sale back in March, the picture quality isn’t 4k, obviously it says 2k lol but it is really good looking and so is the night vision, even has a flash light you can turn on, I also bought 64 gb memory cards to put in as well… I will say I’ve had a little bit of trouble with trying to talk through it to someone knocking on the door when I’m not home, it comes out a little crackley and it’s not very loud, but other then that it’s amazing! It does have to be plugged into a power outlet, I ran mine through the windows, I could have swore it said wireless when I was ordering but I’m not 100% so that could be me not reading correctly lol
