Caveats - I've read the reviews for this item and also for the many other similar devices, and there may be some downsides to it, but I had to choose one . . . so, this was it. Anyway, I'll get to the point - overall I rate this camera with five stars regardless of the slight problem regarding its weatherproofing. Now I'll tell you why: Why do I want a spy camera? Well, a Hedgehog has decided to move in and set up shop in our back garden, no doubt it (we're not sure what its pronouns are) has also read some reviews and decided to give our place a try - not a challenge we can ignore. Speaking of challenges, we have a desire to keep track of the Hedgehog's movements and to check that it's getting on OK, so, our options are: get a wifi camera with motion detection, or camp out in the garden, ... yeah, right. The write up for this Javiscam F7 sounds good - see the spiel on the Amazon page for this wireless camera - but there is a caveat, it's not waterproof and that presents a bit of a challenge. Still, no worries, the task was presented to Captain Frustrated Genius and he delivered on the challenge. And what is our experience with the F7 so far? Well, the claims for the battery stood up to scrutiny and even at 2K the resolution for the imaging and video is just super for our needs. The app which is required to configure and access the Cloud and the camera in real time only runs on the smartphone at present, but the developers may be reconsidering this small limitation. And, as regards setting up the app, it couldn't be simpler and there's a bonus! As soon as you register you get a free six month Cloud Service trial. As to the Cloud Service charges some may balk at that but they seem reasonable given other Cloud charges I'm aware of and one should not forget the up to 128GB micro SD card (which isn't included, but we've found even 32GB SDs are inexpensive and more than adequate for our needs), so I've been using both the Cloud and the SD as a just in case measure. Nearly forgot - wifi. We have a small garden and not an embryonic farm like next door, the signal from our Vodafone wifi hub was able to reach it OK and in return the F7's signal was able to reach the router through at least two walls - if your farm, er,... garden is like our next door your mileage may vary but it shouldn't do so by much. PS - note to developers: I'm sure you can engage a packaging designer to design a much better rain guard enclosure than I've jury rigged for our needs.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Impressive Hidden Spy Camera! I bought the Javiscam Mini Spy Camera expecting decent quality, but it completely blew me away. This little thing is incredibly small and discreet — it hides perfectly anywhere without drawing any attention. The 4K video quality is crystal clear both day and night, and the night vision is surprisingly sharp even in complete darkness. Setup took less than 5 minutes using the app. The WiFi connection is stable, remote viewing works flawlessly from my phone, and the motion detection is smart and accurate — I get instant alerts without tons of false notifications. The long battery life is a game-changer too; I’ve been running it for weeks and it’s still going strong. Whether you’re using it as a nanny cam, pet monitor, or for home security, this Javiscam hidden camera delivers professional-level performance in a tiny package. Excellent build quality, easy to use, and great value for the price. Highly recommend! I’ll definitely be buying more for different areas of the houseDiscreet battery

I'm a week into using this camera. I've installed it into a newly established Hedgehog house. Good points: - Easily connected to WiFi, good signal - Easy to setup via the app and easy to use with good features - Crystal clear day vision picture quality and very good night vision picture quality - Accurate motion detection activity and adjustable recording lengths and sensitivity - SD card was easy to set up and install - Battery life has been nothing short of remarkable, a week in and barely moved a couple of percentage points. - Small profile allows it to be installed easily, especially in small spaces - The mounting bracket that is supplied is easy to install with the pre-applied self adhesive and allows for a great range of positioning. Cons: - Genuinely none so far! I will update my review should I find any. Conclusion: For the price you pay for this camera, it really is an amazing value proposition that just works and does the job very well. I did shop around for options before purchasing but nothing seemed to have all of these features in this form factor for this price, while having an established consistently positive review score.

Great little camera. I bought this for an extra level of security to my existing security set up. Camera is easy to set up & connect to wifi motion sensor accurate with clear images & has screws or self adhesive backing to place wherever you need it. Good value for money.

Easy to set up and get using straight away. Came about half charged so had a play to see if worth keeping and once it passed my test runs put on for full charge. Even after best part of 2 weeks use it’s still 70% charged and working well. 2 negatives are that sound often had high pitched white noise on playback which I though might be due to me having phone in pocket near to camera but still does this at times without my phone being nearby. Second is as others have reported does pick up movement straight away so even on top setting it misses first second or two of movements. Might not be too much of issue if for example used as security and intruder stays within view of camera for a while so recording picks up but if they just pass across view of camera it will miss and record after event of nothing. Tried a counting test of 1 to 10 while walking in view and it picked up from 4 and then again from 9 and 10 on 2 different recordings Recorded picture quality good enough within range and I am sure it will be used for intended purpose not like other cheaper cameras that are now in junk drawer.

It largely worked fine for almost two months – then it didn’t. The issues range from the app not showing an image because it could not detect either the camera or the SD Micro Card. Customer Services (CS), which is entirely online, has not been able to assist. One suggestion was to delete the app and the device from my phone and then re-install it. I had already done this. Another suggestion was to change the SD card. I had only used it fully, once. When it was full, I just re-formatted it. I was told that the SD cards have “limited lifespan regarding read/write cycles”. It’s a NEW card. How on earth can it have reached the end of its lifespan? Another suggestion from CS was to move the camera nearer to the router – it worked for almost two months in the same position. The only time I had to touch the camera was when I had to re-charge it. It’s incredibly frustrating. I’m fortunate in that there hasn’t been an actual emergency, otherwise I would be dependent on something unreliable. I can’t return it so it’s just been boxed up. I’m now looking for another product.

Brilliant camera, tiny, easy to use, amazing battery life! Just got 2 more, used 1 over a year already. I use it to warn me when elderly relative wanders in the night and to check they are OK - motion detection is great, night vision impressive, very wide field of view. App is really good. You need to register an email address with the Ubox app, but I do not need to subscribe for cloud services or use a memory card - just access camera in the app on my phone. I can also easily share access to the cam even with less tech-comfortable family members, they just have to install the app. With motion detection off the battery lasts for weeks and weeks, viewing the cam several times a day, and even with it on it certainly lasts for many days, so it's fine even if I can't get to it for a week or two. I also used it on a model railway to get cab-ride view, and recorded video to my phone. It's tiny enough to fit in any nook, or an RC car or model railway truck (it was O Gauge). Not crazily high quality which is better for file size but still good enough to be lots of fun. For me the most valuable thing about it is it's very practical and useful for checking on a vulnerable elderly family member. Highly recommend!

It's a neat little unit and has pretty clear visuals. It is disappointing that the movement sensor doesn't work through glass though. It's not weather proof, so if you want to see outdoors then you need to place it in a window, but with no movement alerts, you have to have the capacity to record footage all day otherwise risk not capturing activity. I'll be purchasing a different camera and potentially move this one for indoor use.

Bought for a friend. She found it complicated to set up, unfortunately not being techie minded, it’s still not operating connecting to her Wi-Fi…. Hence 3stars at the moment. The actual camera is small, discreet and looks well.
