Excellent IP Camera with lots of features and great image quality.
I have been using this Imou Bullet 2C IP camera since 1 month and it is working great so far.I have two other IP cameras (Vstarcam C16s and Wanscam K54) and this is much better then those. Vstarcam is good but signal quality is average and it saves video footages in raw format which takes lots of time to decode. Wanscam was also good initially but later it started having signal issues, rebooting randomly, narrow view and eventually IR light stopped glowing so no use in the night so I had to replace it with this Imou camera.Anyway, back to this camera. The installation and setup was very simple. Image quality is great. The lens is 3.6mm lens which is wide enough to cover my backyard. Imou app is good for basic access and configuration. However, for advanced control I use Dahua's SmartPSS on PC. To access all my IP cameras, use Deskshare's IP Camera Viewer 4 (Kindly note this software doesn't support H.265 format yet so we have to set H.264 in Dahua's SmartPSS) on PC and Tinycam on smartphone. Only thing I don't like in this Imou camera is the device password configuration. It allows me to change the default password but it only works in Dahua/Imou softwares. 3rd partly apps that are connected via Onvif still use default password. However, it is device specific so it should be secure and hopefully upcoming firmware update will allow me to edit default Onvif password. More details given below.Pros:- 30 fps: Smooth video footage.- 3.6mm lens: Wide angle view.- Looks like it has single IR light but is very bright.- Onvif support (Limited): Live view access to 3rd party apps.- H.265 support: Smaller video files.- AI human detection - Works better then expected.- Dahua's SmartPSS works with this camera. It has lots of configurable options then Imou App and also you can access video footages and pictures stored on SD card.- Wifi signal quality is very good and I haven't faced any major disconnection issues so far.Cons:- Camera has only mic, no speaker so only one way voice.- Soft AP aka hotspot only for setup; router still required after pairing.- Default password can be changed but it only works in Dahua/Imou softwares.- Onvif connection still uses default device password (It is device specific though).- There is no web UI (Looks like it has been removed for security reasons) and Onvif is also secured (Onvif Device Manager cannot access the camera). 3rd party apps can be connected though. Use iSpy software to find the path.- Imou desktop software doesn't seem to connect. It asks for device password but fails to connect. May be its a password issue. Dahua's SmartPSS works fine though.- Imou app nor Dahua's SmartPSS has option to delete video footages or pictures stored in SD card. You'll have to remove the card from the camera and insert it to PC.Finally I would recommended this Imou camera if you want a wide angle view and AI human detection. You can also checkout EZVIZ C3WN (I haven't tried it though) but it lacks features such as AI human detection, H.265 video format and Onvif (Not sure if we can connect 3rd party apps). Also the lens is 4mm so it will not be wide as Imou. Good thing is, EZVIZ is a reputed brand so it will be more secure, reliable and may be officially software's are nicely polished.

NOT RECOMMENDED.
Very bad experience with this wi fi camera. Previously installed sricam sh 007 and sp023 which does not have some modern feature, but still better as they does the basic surveillance work. But this one gives lot of bad experience. Sometimes log out without any reason. Sometimes disconnects from network for indefinite time without any reason. Full of bugs in application software, which is very big, and at times asks for permission from mobile, which should not be asked to run the camera. Night vision is very very bad. Motion detection good in day time. Very bad Chinese product experience. If anyone don't believe me, then better experience the bitter truth by practical experience.

My opinion for this camera went from 3* to 5*
Let me first tell you the basic details you want to know.Image quality is "alright" don't expect camera quality of a mobile phone. Even though the video captured in "HD" has resolution of 1080p it still looks like 720p. But don't get me wrong it captures good audio/video which is our end requirements.Now setting up can be a hassle or not depends upon you, the camera needs to be constantly powered so do remember the power adaptor only has 2m length. I had to buy separate wire for my desired location.For first setup you do need a ethernet wire with internet connection so don't just assume all you need is smart phone.Now why my opinion changed? It's because of the desktop app they recently updated. Previously it won't show you camera footage. So saving the clips on mobile phone was pain and it would heat up my phone as YOU MANUALLY HAVE TO RECORD THE CLIP LIKE SOME SCREEN RECORDER. You have no idea how annoying it gets when you want 20+min clips. Also it has 5min cap for recording so you have to restart recording(saving the clips through app) every 5 mins if you intended to save longer videos.With PC app/software getting updated now I can just save it on my PC, don't have to worry about file size and recording limitations.I even decided to get myself another camera since now it's easy to manage through PC app. Hope this review helps for someone who looking for good camera with good desktop app, since I sure was looking for something like this and glad the desktop app now works properly. Super happy!
