Xiaomi Mi Home Security Camera 2K (Magnetic Mount)

Biggest waste of money out there. Honestly a waste of time. I can’t even get it to connect to my phone as it seems to need to be plugged in right by the router in order for it to sync. Camera repeats its self to you on one voice setting during set up and gives the instructions in both Chinese and English. Biggest regret buying as it can’t even be bloody used it’s that hard to set up and sync. Never ever buy this product. Waste of time and money.

Bought 3 of them, and only 1 able to establish a connection, very next day when I took the other two back for replacement, It was out of stock.Pbtech Palmerston sold both items with open boxes from the bottom without letting the customer know, it's open box item :(It took me 20 minutes and arguments to finally get the refund.Total waste of time.

Bought this and hoped would work seamlessly as other Xioami products, so far had no luck connecting it to Xiaomi Home app to complete the setup. Tried you tube etc.. no luck so far.

At the best of times Xiaomi home software can be buggy. But setting up these cameras is infuriating - just got stuck in an endless loop (I'm even using a Xiaomi phone). These ended up getting smashed with a sledgehammer after many attempts over several months.NOT RECOMMENDED. Go with TP-link instead

Pros:Good 2k camera, with good low light performanceCons:This camera seems to be the same as the very good 360 2K Pro, just without motorized swivel. But some of the smart functions are missing such as person movement in playback.No Bluetooth setupNo local NAS storage option.Setup is very tricky, and none of the documented setup steps worked for me, but eventually I was able to get it going.Summary.Good clear camera. Setup is difficult. I suspect this camera assumes this is your first time with a Xiaomi device. I already had a Xiaomi vacuum and 2 different Xiaomi cameras in my app. So this meant the default steps didnt work.I managed to click connect my phone to the "manual setup".Tips:Reset the device upon first boot. They advise you to do this, and ... MorePros:Good 2k camera, with good low light performanceCons:This camera seems to be the same as the very good 360 2K Pro, just without motorized swivel.

They advise you to do this, and they are not kidding.Connect your phone wifi to the camera(it will show as a hotspot after a few minutes.Run thru and choose "manually setup" when you see the option.When the camera's voice setup asks you to enter a pin in your app it will read out that 4 digit pin. This part is difficult to understand, and the numbers will be followed with a short chinese like word. Example. 8024 will sound like "Eight she, Zero ah, two zah, four zee".

I am absolutely proud this thing Xiaomi 2K cameraIt works perfectly, it has magnetic walls for metal walls!✨ Thank you Xcite! ✨
