Oco Smart Camera User Reviews

Top reviews

Good quality, Horrible cloud plan prices

Love the quality of the image but if you plan on getting a lot of cameras go with a different company. They should have a group pricing unlimited camera pack instead I bought 4 cameras to begin with and the bill for that is more than my cell phone bill each month

Spotty Coverage

The unit struggles with an internet source 5’ away. Pairing isn’t difficult but takes forever. The camera doesn't ‘see’ the bar code, at times, for over 15 mins. Next time it connects right away. The only very good feature is the picture quality, if the camera is connected to the Internet and working properly.

Buy a better camera 8/24/20

I couldn’t be more disappointed in what seemed to be a good surveillance camera. The first time I set up my Oco, it took five minutes. After six months the camera would just go dead. It took 15 to 20 minutes to reconnect each time. And now it’s just dead. I found a better camera, Wyze. It only costs $30 but you can scan and zoom with it. It doesn’t have Wi-Fi problems like my Oco. Overall, I say don’t invest in this surveillance camera. The camera heats up for no apparent reason. It drops off Wi-Fi unexpectedly. If it lasts six months you’ll be lucky.

Ok camera,

The fidelity of the camera is not very good. I installed the Dome Pro camera to monitor a dumpster garbage can however the image quality is low, can’t make out the face to positively identify the person doing illegal dumping.

The installation wasn’t too difficult but when I adjusted the camera angle, the plastic support broke.

I’m going to return the camera and the second unopened one.

Disappointing

It’s easy to connect to WiFi if you have forever. Even next to the WiFi, the unit struggles to connect. Then everything connects until it doesn’t. It overheats. The red light flashed for no reason. The camera isn’t touched or moved but it suddenly switches to night vision then eventually rights itself. When it works, it monitors. It won’t stop recording sound even when only motion recording is desired. I like it’s small round shape. It doesn’t perform properly consistently.

Excellent Camera,Top of the Line Tech Support

I am loving this camera. I installed mine on Monday 1/20/2020. Installation and mounting was a breeze. The oCo app is user-friendly The picture quality is excellent. I have not
experienced any blackouts yet. I am able to go back in time through the calendar to review past events. The archive is on my 64 GB memory card. I have no complaints yet.

The Pain

This was the most difficult of 20 iOT devices to connect to WiFi. It took at least 30 minutes and several attempts, the added bonus of which was that it afforded me the opportunity to key my WiFi password each time. Of the 6 or so cams in the house, this is the only one that will not allow me to delete events, so I have an ever-growing list. At least the cam takes 128 GB cards, so I added a SanDisk 128. Picture quality is good, but app is under-developed
