ALPHA TECHWiFi Smart Camera Charger - Premium HD 1080P - Remote View - 2.4G/5G WiFi - Best Mini Camera for Home, Nanny - Real Time Monitoring - Wide-Angle 160° - iOS Android

I love how easy it was to set up using the app. I used it to keep an eye on my elderly parents. The motion alerts are helpful - a bit sensitive at times, but I can review everything in the app and see what matters. The image quality is excellent. I particularly appreciate that it resembles a regular device, so it doesn't draw attention. It's the best spy camera I've had.

I recently picked up this Smart Camera Charger, and I’ve been genuinely impressed with its performance. This little device is a game-changer for anyone looking for a discreet, reliable way to keep an eye on their space. Priced at $59.99 it’s a steal for what it offers—1080P HD video, a 160° wide-angle lens, and seamless remote viewing through a user-friendly app on iOS or Android.Setup was a breeze; it took me less than five minutes to get it connected to my dual-band 2.4G/5G WiFi network. The camera doubles as a functional USB-C charger, which is brilliant—it blends right into my living room without raising any suspicion. I’ve been using it to monitor my house while I’m out, and the real-time footage is crystal clear, with a wide enough view to cover the entire room. The motion detection alerts are a lifesaver too, pinging my phone the moment motion is detected.What I love most is how unobtrusive it is. The lens is cleverly hidden in the charger design, and it even powers my phone while recording—talk about multitasking! Storage is flexible with support for up to 512GB microSD cards (though you’ll need to buy one separately), and the compression keeps file sizes manageable without sacrificing quality.I’ve noticed it gets a bit warm after extended use, Low-light performance could also be better but for the price and functionality, these are minor gripes.Overall, I’d give the ALPHA TECH Camera Charger a solid 4.5 out of 5. It’s an affordable, discreet, and practical solution for home monitoring—whether you’re watching pets, keeping tabs on a nanny, or just want extra peace of mind. If you’re in the market for a hidden camera that doesn’t break the bank, this one’s worth a look!

Works well but gets dangerously hot. Don't need to start a fire.

This is the best monitoring solution I've used. It doesn't require any subscriptions, and all files can be saved directly to a microSD card, no cloud service needed.The app is intuitive, and the setup was straightforward. It took me about ten minutes to get the smart camera charger up and running, mostly because I hadn't read the user guide and had forgotten to turn on Bluetooth on my phone.Overall, it's an excellent device for its intended purpose.

My experience with the WiFi Smart Camera ChargerPros:The WiFi Smart Camera Charger works well! It delivers color video, and the image quality is clear enough to easily distinguish activity within its view. The best feature is the ability to monitor what’s happening in real time, even when you’re far from the camera’s location—I tested it from over a mile away from my home. I’ve purchased several inexpensive mini cams over the years, and this is the best one so far.Cons:Connecting the camera to the internet can be tricky for beginners. There’s no sound, which isn’t a big issue for me. The camera relies on a smart home app that I found complicated and extremely frustrating to use.Conclusion:Once everything is set up, the camera is easy to use and offers decent video quality. If you’re looking for a discreet mini cam that’s affordable, easy to use (after setup), and provides good video, I recommend giving this one a try.

I have purchased the previous models and this one is a step in the right direction. Allowing it to be linked to an APP and having access to real time video is a game changer. I read some of the reviews and although some people have issues installing and configuring the device - as long as one reads the easy to follow instructions - you are set. Packaging of the item was great - very compact and well protected for shipping. Installation and configuring was straight forward. Implementation was easy and it is ready to go. The APP is very intuitive and I noticed other products can be added. I would add more products to the TUYA APP. The APP is very easily customizable and the picture quality is very good. Clear crisp images. Of course, the fact that it looks like a regular charger is fantastic. Would it be too difficult for a 'white' version? Very happy with this product and would consider others to add to the APP.

The camera worked, setup was easy buuuut I’m having trouble viewing files from the SD Card on my laptop or even my spare android phone (currently using iPhone). I’ve tried the files everywhere and they aren’t supported but I know there’s files on there because I’ve seen them using the app. Now I’ve reset the camera (without SD) and it only shows recordings after the reset but I can see the old files are still there when I look at memory storage. I just can’t access them…please help
