WiFi Wireless Camera Mini Hidden - Review

The Shaopao WiFi Wireless Camera Mini Hidden Spy Home Security Camera Small Cam is a device that is marketed as the solution to all your needs when it comes to home security, monitoring children or elderly, and even as a way to keep an eye on your pets. The camera comes in the size of a coin and is equipped with a 1080P full HD pixel camera, making it portable yet powerful. It has a 150-degree wide-angle and is perfect for home and office security, racing cars, and even FPV DVR cameras.

The camera is easy to use and comes with a free app that can be installed on any mobile phone, which allows the user to view the footage from the camera in real-time, from anywhere in the world. However, the experience with the Shaopao camera was far from satisfactory, which is why it only received a 2.6-star rating out of 5 on Amazon.

Firstly, the quality of the camera was extremely subpar, despite the company's claims of it being of high quality. The camera was not able to capture high-quality footage, even in broad daylight. The images were blurry and lacked clarity, which made it difficult to identify any objects that were captured by the camera. The night vision feature was also disappointing, as it was barely able to capture images even at a distance of 6.1 meters.

Even though the camera is marketed as a hidden spy camera, it is not discreet at all. The camera is large and bulky, which makes it difficult to hide in plain sight. The design is far from attractive and does not blend well with any décor or surroundings. Additionally, the camera makes a loud beeping sound when it is turned on or off, which completely defeats the purpose of having a hidden camera.

The battery life of the camera was another major issue. The company claims that the camera has a large battery of more than 350mAh and can last for up to 2.5 hours on a full charge. However, in reality, the battery life was much lower than advertised. The camera barely lasted for an hour before it needed to be recharged.

Another drawback of the Shaopao camera was the compatibility issues. The camera only works with a Wi-Fi network of 2.4GHz only, which means that if you have a higher frequency Wi-Fi network, the camera will not be compatible. The camera also had issues with connectivity, and often disconnected from the Wi-Fi network, making it impossible to view the live footage.

The Shaopao WiFi Wireless Camera Mini Hidden Spy Home Security Camera Small Cam may seem like an affordable and convenient solution to home security and monitoring needs. However, the reality is far from it. The camera's quality is subpar, it is not discreet, has a short battery life, and compatibility issues, making it a waste of money. There are far better and more reliable options available in the market that provide high-quality footage, discreet design, longer battery life, and are more compatible with different Wi-Fi networks.

In conclusion, I would not recommend the Shaopao WiFi Wireless Camera Mini Hidden Spy Home Security Camera Small Cam to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient home security and monitoring device. The camera's poor quality, design, and functionality make it a poor investment. It is essential to research and compare the different options available in the market before making a purchase, as there are far better options available that provide value for your money.
