Customer Review

DbPower offers a remarkable combination of hardware and software that convinced me only moderately. The camera is completely made of plastic, but makes a solid impression. No sharp edges, no protruding corners and the mechanism does - at a pleasant volume - their work. The image quality is shaky, the software underground.

The initial installation thanks to the included manual - foreign language skills are an advantage - feasible, a bit awkward, but ultimately you get the network camera also put into operation. The first pictures are disappointing, the wired network and in daylight the supplied images are weak. While it realizes the filmed object, but edges and edges are fuzzy, blurry faces to recognize details hardly. Although the picture is far better than the old security cameras but the advertised H.264 HD compression and 720 lines not bring much, because the hardware simply can not keep up. Already during the transmission of a 720er images jerky and the live mode shows a significant time delay and massive noise. Very good I feel, however, the night shots that bring out the limited options a whole lot "of the night". One can clearly see people and movements that black and white photos are neat.

However, underground is the Softwaremix that comes because this is confusing, prone - simply not mature. It jerky, the software also plunges you up times and the mobile apps do not have a long way to go. About "Master" on the PC you have for example a lot less options than on the Web View, but this depends to happy times on.

As much as it is fun to control the camera with the mouse, so limited are the areas of application. As interior monitoring quite nice, but the software pulls the rating down significantly.
