Good picture

Pros: Good picture,
Cons: auto focus not so good
Overall Review: Works fine without the lifecam software. However the lifecan software does add a lot of features, but I found that when they are loaded, the camera auto-focuses a lot.
Basic system

Pros: Affordable, easy to setup. Nice packaging. As always New Egg delivers quickly.
Cons: DVR almost always gives a NO DISK error when powering on. Camera quality is marginal
Overall Review: The daytime color is off, green grass is a kinda brown color. There are constant changes from IR to regular with even the slightest outdoor light changes (cloud cover). This trigger the motion sensor to go off and gives false alarms. The contents of the package are complete; cabling, etc... But the cables are of minimal quality. Once connected the cameras show lines on the screen. I tried multiple cables with multiple cameras so it isn't a one time thing. Not sure if it is the camera or the cable, but as a package, you will get screen artifacts on a regular basis. Image quality is marginal. Don't expect to read license plates or identify people from any sort of distance; say more than 10 feet as the quality just isn't there. I am going to try a better camera to see if the quality improves. The DVR unit is nice, but the no disk message every power on is a pain. Do a google search, its not uncommon. Once its up and running, you at least have some form of security and the cameras may be a deterrent.
Quality is OK

Pros: Not a bad wireless camera. Easy to setup if connected by a cable and use the IP Finder software. When switching to wireless, you need to know your SSID and WEP key of your router to set it up to work on your wireless network. I didn't bother with the included software, I added it to my existing software, Blue Iris, that I have been running for several years.
Cons: Don't expect exceptional quality or high FPS. But for the price, you get what you pay for. I am using it indoors and appears to work fine.
great call quality

Pros: Very good quality
Cons: Must keep "case" with you due to size
Overall Review: Best quality I have ever used. The case also charges the device when it is stored..and the switch is turned on. It takes some getting used to the way it attaches to your ear. It does come with the standard over the ear piece. The packaging is top notch, not some cheap plastic.
