Not as we had hoped – Will detect motion 95% of the time, but when you open the app to identify what the motion was, it won’t connect. Sometimes after refreshing a few time it might, but generally way too late. When we can sometimes access the recorded motion, it often misses the object unless it’s really slow moving. Have had now power issues with the solar panel keeping it charged. Unfortunately wouldn’t recommend this. Show details

Poor life span – You get about 6 months worth of reasonable battery life. Then there is no way of charging battery to %100 without removing device and manually charging it. Then after doing this 2 to 3 times, you end up breaking antena as it's very flimsy. Show details

Not worth the price – I purchased this camera more than 3 months ago. It was with the expectation that I wont need to buy any more cameras as it will monitor the entire front yard (as advertised). However I do have to buy another camera to minotor the right side of my front yard as this camera only monitors wherever its positioned. I was disappointed to find out that… Read more

the pan and tilt feature has to be operated by me,manually, via app. It doesn't follow a moving object as advertised. There is also significant delay in capturing movement. 5+ seconds. By the time I receive a notification the only thing that is captured is someone's back as leaving the property. The other day it didn't even register and record me walking from the top of my driveway to my front door. And yet the camera lense is positioned in that direction. The app which must be downloaded to use the camera doesn't work well since it has been updated. I stopped receiving notification sounds which means that I am not aware of any notifications without looking at my phone. Pan and tilt control on the app doesnt work well. Its delayed, makes it very difficult to set the camera lense at desired position or follow moving objects. The solar panel is great. Camera is always 100% charged.

Totally unreliable – Keeps on dropping out. The charger connection from the solar panel comes loose. It just can't function without interruption more than two weeks in a row, them have to go through a complicated process to reconnect. It works again for a week or two, then it disconnects again. It is low to respond to motion detection, takes 10-20 seconds before it… Read more

starts recording. It only records 30 second segments max. No continuous recording. Bought from Leading Edge electronics for $365 in October 2021. Waste of money.

Avoid! – Night picture is not clear The time Lapse feature works 33% of the time The ability to follow something with the PTZ is useless, too touchy and network lag generally either doesn't allow the feature or over shoots what you're trying to follow. Motion trigger too slow or doesn't work. Only good if you want to dial in and check on things. Camera arrived broken, cracked lense and not a replaceable part, couldn't get it replaced. Show details

Utterly terrible DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY – Is unreliable and sporadic, let’s visitors come right to door. Sometimes doesn’t even alert or record motion at front door. System is on always. Utterly terrible. Useless. AND if the device turned off at all, cannot find the device or reconnect to it!,, DONT waste your money! Show details

Waste of money – PT solo is not auto tracking, that was implied, looses wifi connection constantly, takes multiple attempts to manually reconnect to wi fi, goes black screen with colour at night. Its radius of vision is no more than a normal cam, unless you rotate it. Sound & siren is useless its so quite. Cant even hear a voice broadcast and recorded message does… Read more

not work. Alarm only goes off if you are very close. Day1 observations Expensive and extremely disappointing. I cannot find a way to join with a nvr, dvr, can only use uniden cloud or a card that was half expected. I have not tried their cloud as conditions seem all encompassing & dicey. It could be useful perhaps for daytime manual observation from inside, what use is that. It would be quite good if it did not need pir to record and could connect to record to disk or your choice of cloud. A plus is it does seem to see quite a distance in daylight although zoom seems not much good. Unless I can work a way to make it work better, I will probably return it and look to ebay for an cheaper auto ptz. Pity

So missed leading on the advertisement – So this is the only wirefree weatherproof security camera with pan and tilt function which was advertised on the box. But unfortunately the camera will just stay still and won’t be able to pan or tilt following the moving object. We have to use the app to manually pan or tilt it. So not smart tracking at all and very overpriced.
