Baseus Security Camera Outdoor, B1 Wireless Solocam with 2K Clarity, 145° Wide View, 210-Day Battery Life, IP67, Built-in 8GB Local Storage and Color Night Vision, No Monthly Fee

This camera was easy to install, I like that it has a long battery life, but I wish it had a good solar panel. Image quality is good, and I like that it has some built in storage. Good coverage of my front yard and walkway.

This is a really nice outdoor security camera with a lot of features. First off, the device itself feels very well made and doesn't feel cheap. It's exterior is mostly made from metal and is quite heavy for a security camera. Don't get me wrong, it's not unmanageable, but it can be a little awkward setting up. It does come with everything you need to be able to use it as the storage is built in (8GB - not expandable). The accessories included are also well made and they need to be, to properly be able to support this camera.The overall setup is pretty easy. The only more difficult thing about it can be the actual mounting process. Just be sure to mount this in an area where it will be secure and has access to your Wi-Fi. This can connect to a 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz network which definitely helps. Other than that, the setup is very fast and easy. The app guides you through everything. Depending on where you mount it, make sure you have access to it during setup as it will need to scan a QR code.This camera does have a built in battery which I fully charged before setting it up. There is no included solar panel, however, they claim 210 days on a full charge. While I can't confirm that at this point, I can say I have had it out for a little while now and the battery percentage has hardly moved. This will all vary based on how much it's used and how much action there is for the camera to capture.I really like the app setup and design. It's very user friendly and easy to follow. This is not PT camera, but it does have an extra wide field of view, which really helps.The video quality is quite nice and very useable for a camera like this. It also does a great job detecting people, packages, vehicles, etc. I have attached a sample image from the camera to this review.All things considered, I really like this outdoor security camera and have been using it for a little while now with no issues to report. It's been through rain, sun and heat, and I have no moisture issues whatsoever. I really like the user interface on the app and overall image quality. It's definitely a camera I will be using for quite some time!

I have a large backyard and no way to run power to the far corner unless I put in another breaker and run an external line all the way out. I do not want to do all that work. So when I saw the battery life this advertised, I honestly would have grabbed it if it only had half the life it claimed. I installed it about a month ago and I plan on giving it a fresh charge this week. I'm still making adjustments to the sensor zones because I get a lot of notifications for trees blowing. I'd rather have that, than miss something though. Having the built in storage is nice, although I wish it had just a little more with an option for continuous recording while there is activity. I did have to run a PoE AP and mount it on the roof to get a strong signal.

Easy to install and seems to be working very well, Best part are the notifications to alert you of movement, the live video feed is very fast allowing you to promptly see what’s happening in real-time with good quality, the 2K resolution is crystal clear, and the night vision works so well that I can see everything even in the dark.

I've been using the Baseus Security Camera Outdoor B1 for a few weeks now, and overall, I'm quite satisfied with its performance. The 2K video quality is impressive, offering clear footage during both day and night, thanks to its color night vision feature. The wide 145° view makes it easy to monitor large areas, which is a significant plus.Setting up the camera was relatively straightforward, though I found the mounting process a bit tricky due to its weight. The built-in 8GB storage is convenient, especially since there are no monthly fees associated with it. Battery life is another highlight; while I can't yet confirm the claimed 210 days, it has held up well so far.That said, I do have some concerns. The lack of expandable storage and cloud backup options is a downside, as it limits your ability to save recordings in case the camera is stolen. Additionally, the app could use more features, particularly for alerts and notifications.Despite these drawbacks, the camera provides good value for the price, making it a solid choice for outdoor surveillance. Overall, I’d rate it four stars for its reliable performance and excellent video quality.
