This is my third camera system in several years and it is my favorite by far. I am giving a review that I hope is very useful instead of just saying "I love it". The following covers some info I had trouble finding before I bought my system.
First off it is a little pricey for 2 cameras but since you do not need an subscription for their service you will make the cost up very quickly. Storage is local on a micro sd card in the hub box that needs to be connected to your router for remote viewing, totally recommend connecting it by wire. If your network goes down it will still record and store your videos in the hub you just won't be able to view the videos remotely.
Cameras have great video resolution night and day plus you can zoom in on using your phone. Very easy to save the video to your phone too. Like all wireless hardware the connection distance depends on a lot of factors. As an example I assume like routers it would not a good idea to have the cameras higher then the hub but just guessing. The two photos show a camera several feet from the front of my house and a screenshot showing it connected to the hub. The hub is at the back of the house some 75 feet. To be clear, I got a connection at 75 feet but this was only a connection test and not an operation test. I did not use it for any length on time to be able to check the reliably of operation at this distance. In hind sight I wish I would have. I can say both of my cameras are about 40 feet from the hub and they work perfectly fine.
The camera location setup is very very important regarding the distance when movement starts recording. Pay close attention to the directions that comes with the camera because it makes a big difference. One camera is setup correctly and it detects movement 25 to 35 feet away. My other camera because of its location I have to point the camera down more then suggested. As a result of this camera only detects movement about 16 feet away. Personally I think 30ish feet away is OK, much further you will get too many recordings as this happens with my other surveillance systems.
The rest is basic stuff. Easy to install. Totally wireless. Battery life 1 year...maybe? I never pick the optimize option on anything because I would rather it work better instead of saving battery life. I can say the battery lasts for many months dependent on number of motions. The app is great, one of my favorite things it is super easy to put the cameras in standby mode for up to 12 hours. This way it won't record you washing your car for an hour.
