Great review Dave. I appreciate your complete honesty. Even though it was negatives in critical functions. If batteries won't last no longer than that, then that cam is a total failure in my opinion. Doesn't really matter if it does other things well, it's a flop. A side note....you made the "hint" referring to what camera you like and I'm right there with you. I'm loving mine (if you remember, I bought 5 of them). Your gonna cbe hard pressed to find another camera that'll convince me to leave the one I'm using now. Again, thanks for the total honesty because I use that as my starting point to see if I want to even look into this product. At the beginning of the video, I thought I'd try one, but now I'm gonna pass. Thanks Dave and good hunting.

You can pan and tilt with your phone from anywhere. Has audio. I could go on and on. Instead, check out huntingfarmer's videos on them.

thanks for the review, wish I would have seen it b4 I bought it. battery life.... was thinking of being in a bar and getting the message that the elephants are there. but 2-3 days battery?? it would take me that long to get to the camera and change the batteries that would be running out b4 I got to that bar. one of the other problems I have is the infra red being visible at night must have no glow. have one great video of elephants ripping the camera off the tree and stomping it. the sd card survived. have fun, this thing is out the backdoor. maybe my tiger guy would be willing to go back out and change the batteries.

Thank you for a great video! Weve have had the Suntekcam 900-series during a year now, and tried to use it as a hunting camera. In Finland our summer is 15-25 C (50-80 F). There is a serious problem with the battery consumption. It lasts only a few days when taking only pictures. Seems to be a common problem, if you check other reviews by people who used the camera. Usually our hunting cameras last from months to half a year with same amount of pictures and same settings as SuntekCam. I've contacted fabric and customer service in China, but they blame customers for not setting up their cameras, and that the batteries used are wrong, but we´ve tried everything (lithium, all settings). This message they have sent to other users aswell. The picture quality is ok, means it is same quality as in any other camera today, so no difference there. I wouldn´t recommend SuntekCam based on that you need a car battery to use it. Some users have professional solar panels + car battery connetcted to it. I think there are easier and cheaper alternatives to take photos and videos.

How's she goin'? The idea of the camera sending pics back to you via cell signal is a good one. But it takes a SIM card and it will cost you data. The thing about the batteries not lasting too long is a downer too eh. And the power port connection, well that just wasn't well thought through. But aside from that, the pics were good quality and nice long clips of video too. That could be a big plus for some people. Thanks for doing the review and take care!!!
