- Buy it on Amazon: amzn.to/3oH8Vbj or Aliexpress: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_9zabva (Affiliate links) This is a review of one of the most affordable budget outdoor PTZ IP security cameras on the market. I got this from Aliexpress and it cost me $37 including shipping which is really cheap for a outdoor PTZ IP camera.

Important Note: this will NOT detect body heat to trigger white LEDs (in darkness), or trigger the alarm push notifications. There is no PIR sensor on this device. There is a photocell sensor to detect low light conditions, but this is not the same thing as a PIR sensor.
The description about the "3 night modes" is a little confusing. To clarify, when in low light conditions "OFF" means it will only use the IR lights, so images are black & white. "ON" means the white LEDs will remain lit full time, and images will be in colour. "AUTO" means that in darkness, the white LEDs will come on and it will record in colour if anything in the image changes.
Therefore, if you set it to "AUTO", and it is installed outside, in darkness, even the smallest change in the image such as a flying insect, a leaf blowing in the wind, or a rain drop flashing by, then the white LEDs switch on and it will switch to colour recording, and the white LEDs stay on for around 2 minutes. The white LEDs attract more flying insects if installed outside, so basically the white LEDs stay on constantly throughout the night.
Other than this drawback, it is a decent budget IP camera. It's not full HD recording, but daytime image quality is okay, probably 720P and not 1080P as advertised. The frame rate however is a bit low, maybe 10-15fps. It's a bit tricky to setup as local AP only (if no WiFi available), and some of the important settings are missing in this mode, but the app is fairly user friendly. Playback is not great either. The slidebar timeline is overly sensitive, and it is easy to skip too far. It also records in blocks if using a TF card, so you cannot always immediately view the past 3-5 minutes, but it does eventually allow you to view any moment captured on an internal TF card.
This is the best budget IP PTZ camera I have bought and tested, but some features in the camera and the app still need much improvement. If you have the money and want all the missing features, you should look at investing in a NVR with WiFi capabilities.
Hope this helps somewhat.
It's perfect for when i hear something outside and wanna take a look around And make sure no one outside messing with my stuff
Love your review...thanks, I always wanted to buy cheap cameras. Good work!
Installed it myself without any issues. The wifi signal is great even th-cam.com/users/postUgkxE_D_sddGAdiVUKp7PkkmyxO7bRtgqmk5 when the router is located far away. I really enjoy the night vision feature that allows me to see clearly any activity near our house (mostly cars and wild animals). The motion detection is helpful to me as well to monitor what happens on our front.
Good review. Thank you! It helps me a lot.
For the price it's really good, we sometime expect to much to little money so this isn't really bad at all pretty decent.
Thanks for this vid buddy
Its amazing to see people live so crammed together.
Pretty good value. Thanks for the video
The problem with all these cheap camera's these days is that they work with an app on your phone giving away all your privacy but if you simply want to setup the cam on a local ip network and acces it with a pc, then it becomes very hard.
Very good presentation.. Excellent. Keep it up.. 👍👍👍
Quite nice review video, informative.
I used to own one of these Besder camera's and binned it because it was incredibly unstable.
It would run for a few hrs then freeze for no apparent reason. I tried it wirelessly and
wired and even bought a wifi booster. Save yourself time and hrs of frustration and buy a
camera from a branded western company.
Great video thanks 😊
Even cheap cameras work great out of the box, but the key metric to consider when buying is longevity. Cheap infra-red LEDS always burn out, and rain and severe cold does damage them regardless of whether they claim to be weatherproof. If night vision is important to you, don't get a cheap camera. Best thing you can do is augment the weatherproofing yourself.
Thanks! This helped since I misplaced the instruction manual.
For the price it's actually better than I thought it would be. Nice job.
For one of the cheapest camera this is very good thanks alot
Nice review, thanks
Thank you for the video! Very helpful (-:
Glad it was helpful!
Refreshing good review!
Nice video, thank you :)
Excelent review👏😉
Good review. Very useful info...thks
Glad you liked it
Great video!
Nice. I would get the next to cheapest. Thanks for sharing .
Very nice neighborhood, nice houses and a real good video camera ,happy living where ever you are.
Yes, thank you
I have 4 and i.m quite happy with them
This camera has no zoom, so its not really a ptz, just a pt, but it also has audio and it has tracking, like if someone walks by it will follow them, very cool! Also I have it connected to my dvr security camera system, so it records to it instead of the cloud or sd card, only downside with this is it records 24/7.
Love this video
Thanks for your review...I just ordered a really cheap pan/tilt camera from Amazon for $17.99 CDN! When it arrives (IF it arrives - from China) let's see how bad it is!! Interesting that you pronounce 'Z' as 'zed' - as we do in Canada. Also, that the power adapter seems to have the same two prong plug as ours does, too...Cheers!
Thanks for sharing
Hey we have constant power outages in my country, does this have some sort of battery or anything u would recommend??
thx fo da videos
Good work on the video
I have several of this camera. Been using it for 5months now with no problem. Using sdcard recording for playback.
Great video. Do you consider its video quality good enough for zoom meetings? can it be controlled from a laptop?
This is the reviews that need to be made. Expensive cameras should be good and don't need to be reviewed.
Great video. Question: do you need to be connected to the same internet as the camera in order to view what it sees or any internet connection will do. I have no internet where I want to place the camera so a repeater is an option but it creates a separate wifi and if I am at the other end of the house my phone and camera will be connected to two separate networks.
Thank you come again
GREAT VIDEO,, I would have liked to know more about the Cat-? wire connection, it is more than cat-5 or cat-6, as mine has 7 pins in the connector, guess I will have to search some more to find what cable I need..
Great video like to see more I subscribed for the price it gets the done I'm buy one now thanks
looks good for the money! I ordered one today tnx for the info!
Is it good
Dose it really work good
is this good???
Me too I like it cameras. I like to control wireless things. And also it’s not common that a QR is read by the camera. Usually it’s the app reeds it through the phone.
great review
Hello, great video!
I have a different camera but it works with the same app, the thing is that the joystick it's not working (it didn't appear when I set up the camera) and I don't know what to do
hey Securitybros greetings from Ecuador i got a questions. Its this camera compatible with cctv witch i could record in a DVR?
Hi securitybros, can I use the YCC 365 App for more than 2 cameras ? Thanx
@securitybros.. Following your revue, I have purchased one off eBay. It arrives in a couple of days. Just one question if I may ask, could this be connected to a NVR box and if so, have you got any recommendations for a unit please.
thank you
Hi Chris, do you know if this cam has a known http or rtsp stream so you can add it to windows applications like BlueIris or Ispy ?? I have some chinese cams that work very well with their own app but are impossible to use with other software since the stream cannot be found. Thanks !!
Gday Can you http into the camera on the LAN/Local WIFI without an Mobile "APP" ? Does it have an IP address and HTTP/HTTPS server ?
some recommended brand of microsd and what capacity does it support for this camera?
Is it possible to connect multiple cameras to the same app ? Can you have two cameras running and check them simultaneously on your phone?
Thanks for the information
I have camera which looks like yours, the model is c-p05. Is it normal that the camera pans periodically to one side and than it moves also tilt up a bit and down a bit and than stabilise an working normally? Also, does this camera also track by tilt or just pan? Because my cam does not track by tilt. But at this moment camera is 1,70m above the floor and maybe is this why does not track by tilt, or just does not support tilt tracking? Thank you!
Hi, Thanks for your review. I have 3 of these and find them to be OVERLY sensitive. I put them on the lowest sensitivity level and still get constant notifications without any video.
You're not wrong. It's to do with the hardware and software technology limitations.
Hardware: it does not have a PIR sensor, so it relies on the software to detect movement.
Software: it simply isn't smart enough to tell the difference between human movement and random pixel changes in the image.
To a camera, an insect/leaf/raindrop close to the lens is the same as a human further away, so it will translate this into "movement".
I'm sure in time as the technology gets cheaper, we'll start to see budget IP cameras with better detection capabilities.
I had a similar problem with a cheap "nanny cam" I setup to detect movement. The problem was, there were tiny power fluctuations in the IR LEDs which caused the picture image to blur, which it turn triggered the movement alarm. The problem never went away, even after putting it on the lowest sensitivity setting, so I turned off the motion detection alarm.
Do you know if the camera can be used with another app. I’m looking to use my own home network to store my video vs paying the mthly/yrly subscription that you have to sign up for if you use the YCC365 plus app.
Can we set only for motion detecting or you can set on motion detetor with sound detector together?
Hi, do you know if it is possible to use it like normal ip camera and connect it to surveillance system, or you always need to use their app? THX
Hi what cable do you need to connect to the DVR thanks
great camera!
How do you connect this to the desktop using the 'IP Camera' software - I can connect with the phone, but not get the camera to work on the computer... thanks for your help.
So cool
i have seen a lot of
Solar Power Security Cameras do they work ??
they run on 2 or more 18650 batterys
I am struggling to find how to play back recording on SD card of no Cloud store is subscribed. Only way is to take out the SD card and read it manually ?
Hi. Very good information but how do I get the 3 cables into the house (brick built) do I just buy extender cables and a longer Ethernet cable. Any help please. No one gives the best ideas how to route the cables. Thanks all.
Great 👍 video
Does it make sounds and is there a camera all around it?
maybe i missed it, but how does the recording work? does it automatically record all day? or only when motion is detected? or only when you press record? and can you download it into your phone? or should the micro SD be removed from the camera?
Also, i see those 3 cables, do i need some sort of special connection for it?
Hi 2 questions: a) there is a control panel where setup the camera, like for example the IP address or the password? Can this camera transmit via rtsp? Regards
So good
Hey thank you for the info. Is there a customer service for these cameras? can I buy two or more and be on the same site or Window on my phone when I'm away for a few weeks? This is really important to me.
This is Cathy from Shenzhen Audube Technology Co.,Ltd. We are speclizing in Smart wifi camera.Our R&D department have 30 peoples,and the factory have 90+ peoples.We make home and outdoor cameras.
Hello, can I connect multiple phones to camera? For example my brother would also like to have access to view camera but I am already connected with my phone to it .
Great video. Can you recommend a wifi Camara that takes a battery. Please
very good video.
Great review. Tks.
Thank you, much appreciated!
Can I watch video stream just on same wifi as camera or I can also watch that video stream from another country while camera is connected to my router in home?
What is the model you use to compare the camera? The big one, thanks
Is it possible to view the feed via browser or use an ip address to stream to for example ContaCam?
can it connect a NVR? since I don't like camera passing by using my wifi I have a wireless NVR it supports PTZ
So I have to pay a subscription to a cloud service. Is there another way to see what it recorded with removing the sd card everytime?
Please help. It worked perfectly first time. Then it stopped. I tried resetting it and making a new connection but now it doesn't want to connect to my WiFi. Keeps saying WiFi connection failed.
Can you use ICSee or XMeye for the camera?
What app you use for camera because i use icsee and I canot turn on the led lights. I dont have a buton for light in app.
I have this camera and it works just fine. It is Onvif and connects wirelessly to my NVR recorder without any issues. Having it powered from my garage means than I have not had to drill through walls. It does not have any fancy features such as optical zoom or iris control. The automatic tracking works but it will track trees blowing the wind etc.
Will it be a good choice for a house near to a road?
Does it have the posibility to upload files to FTP and not SD card?
Hi Rob. Can you help me. How can you connect to NVR with ONVIF? What is the correct settings. I have synology nvr. Thanks

Based on your test review what are the best outdoor PTZ IP security cameras? Can you please recommend what brand.
So it has been 2 yrs since you made the video I was wondering what your opinion of the camera is now ? How about about a follow up thanks

Is there a Webinterface oder CGI-Command-List... is it possible to take snapshot with Cgi-Command
How do you install it outdoors while connected to the power adapter?
I can change the cloud service ?....the native options is very expensive for my country (brazil)
Hi. My V380 pro wireless camera, but we work with cables for better and quicker response. After 6 months or more, we can't go into the camera, although it shows LAN online with camera id number. Tries to connect for a long period of time but doesn't connect.
Hello, can this camera automatically rotate from one side to other side? So could I monitoring whole 270° area?
How about the mirco sd card recording? Does it allow sd card recording / looping?
thank you good info is it possible to set it not to view next door in there garden or drive way

My cloud service Expired, I have a new Micro SD card and setting changed to
record to card. However No events are being recorded and I cannot view the
video's on the card only when I manually hit the record button does it save the videos to my album. I can manually record by hitting the record button but is
won't record when the camera is set to motion and sound Alarm! So is there a
way to set this to record event when motion or sound is detected? Am I missing
something?
Longevity? What is it like with sun exposure on the plastic. Does it start to crumble after a few months or is it good under strong UV conditions? Id be interested to hear peoples experiences.
