    Here’s yet another IP cam that claims to be super-simple to setup, yet all it caused me was a super-simple path to a headache. The setup software is novel — at one point, you really hold your tablet in front of the cam so it can scan a QR code for ‘simple’ setup. Fantastic thought; shame it doesn’t work.

    The setup process is needlessly cumbersome and bogged down. The process just gets in it’s own way and fails constantly. I spent a excellent amount of time with this thing, and the end result was a cam shackled by a intricate Android app that constantly locked up and failed. It didn’t help matters that the developer has posted over half a dozen iterations of their own app on Google Play, nearly to the point of being schizophrenic. Most of the apps didn’t work with this model, but the developer gives no meaningful clues as to which one we must use.

    **Developer Tip — release ONE app and map out how to make it work with ALL your cams. That’s YOUR part in all of this — to make a pleasant customer experience that really makes sense. JMHO, for what it’s worth.

    When this camera did work, it didn’t work well. Constant indicate dropouts. Constant app glitches. Mediocre video quality. Hands down, this is just another overpriced piece of junk in a pretty white casing.

    I’m not sure why manufacturers seem to reckon that typing an IP address and doing some simple configs is somehow much more hard than the crap they make; alleging to be quick and simple. I despise to keep beating this drum, but facts are facts — get a Foscam. I can get them up and running 5 minutes out of the box, no exaggeration. And if you’re capable of reading 2 paragraphs of text, and have moderate comprehension skills, then you too can handle a Foscam. If all that sounds like more than you care to deal with, then I humbly suggest you stick to a basic baby cam, like this Levana Stella PTZ or this Levana Jena. Just plug them in and they work.

    If you’re wedged on wanting a pseudo “baby” cam with IP capability, then take a look at this Foscam FI8909W in White. Unlike this Q-See, the Foscam really facility, and is EASY to setup. Then use an app like TeamViewer or Jump Desktop to access the computer running your cams. Or just use the Foscam app (on G-play) to access the cams. You can get all that running in far less time than I wasted on this Q-See. With the key difference being: the Foscam really facility.

    Bottom Line: this is yet another overpriced crappy IP cam that got tossed into the bottom of a junk drawer. Avoid, unless you have excess time and money to burn; in that case, by all means, go ahead and buy this.

    UPDATE – this Q-See looks an dreadful lot like this D-Link DCS-932L. Check the pics of the front and back. Aside from some coloring variations around the lens, these 2 cams are basically identical.

    IP cams have turned into huge business. Only problem is, every manufacturer is trying to carve out and control their own confront of the market. None of these new “simple setup” IP cams play nice with others. And virtually all of them are hampered by their own firmware, which is designed to keep the cams completely under the thumb of the developer, which also keeps the customer shackled by these limitations. Developers are so busy trying to become IP cam kingpins, that they forgot to prioritize the customer experience, which must be first and foremost. Again, I reckon I’ll just stick to Foscam, which incidentally, is the current IP cam leader all these other guys are trying to dethrone. JMHO.

    NOTE: Be sure to read the update(s) at the bottom of this review>>

    This is my third web cam I’ve attempted to hook up to monitor my dogs even as I’m not at home. The first, a remote-trainable WiFi camera would never work properly, and I never could get it to work outside the WIFi network due to some complex port forwarding nonsense. The second unit, a hard-wired IP camera (also from Q-See) was DOA because it required a Phd in Computer Engineering to hook up, and I only have a BS Eng.

    That brings us to this unit. Judge it or not, from the time I unpacked it to the time it was online and I was viewing remote video on my iPhone was FIVE MINUTES! Seriously.

    Here’s what was required. First, plug the camera into the AC outlet. Next plug it into a free LAN port on my router. Then I downloaded the free iPhone app. Registered as a user via the app, then used the app to scan the QR code printed on the back of the camera, named the camera and BAM, it worked! No port forwarding; no distress registering; nothing. An actual plug-and-play video camera.

    So are here any downsides? Well, the video is maybe VGA quality (so?). Also, the camera cannot be aimed in the least; here is also about a 6 second delay and the audio isn’t the best;…..again, so? It facility, which is incredible. Here’s something else that’s grating: the “free” app has ADS! I haven’t seen this in a long even as, and it is VERY irritating.

    Yet to be tested: WiFi operation and Micro SD card recording (can function like a security DVR). I’ll test these in the coming days and crash back here. I’ve also got to map out how to monitor the video with a PC/Mac, in other words, without an iPhone.

    In synopsis, though, this thing was super simple to get up and running and just plain facility!

    Update: Later the same day…OK, so things aren’t quite as fantastic as I thought. Tried to get the camera to work over WiFi, and even as the set-up was simple, and led me step by step, after 9 different attempts, the camera has been unable to connect. In addition, I tried to go online to view the camera using a web browser, and again the process seemed faultless, but when it came time to connect, I kept receieing the message “Cannot connect to the camera!”….so, I’m downgrading my review to 3 stars based on it only working when hard-wired to my router, and only via iPhone. As permanently, I’ll post updates here as I come up with new information.

    BTW, this camera appears to be so new that here isn’t a lot of support on the Q-See web site.

    Update #2: The iPhone software is very pushchair and crashes often. Most crashes have something to do with the audio function, so I’ve turned that off. Still haven’t been able to get the browser viewer to work, and I’ve updated all my logic software, including the latest Java plug-in. I’ve tried to access the camera via web browser via Safari and Firefox on a Mac, and via Internet Explorer on a Windows machine. In all cases, I get only as far as “Loading” and it goes no further…forEVER. I’ve had to force quit Safari twice, and in this day and age, this simply must not happen.

    Also, three more attempts at connecting via WiFi this morning were unsuccessful.

    More to come…

    Simple setup, excellent quality video, but if Q-See goes away, this is trash, June 26, 2013

    On the box, it says that Q-SEE specializes in simplicity, quality and technology. Let’s find out!

    In the box:
    – camera
    – CAT5 cable – 5ft
    – mounting screws and anchors
    – AC adapter w/10 feet cord (barrel on one end and USB on the other, which plugs into the 2A transformer)
    – user manual that is unusually helpful – affect photos and instructions on paper by an fascinating person
    – tiny reset button pusher!

    I plugged in the power and the network cable. I was expecting some complicated setup next, but it says to install the app next. Searching for “eView” and installing on my iPhone and Google Nexus 7 Android tablet in their respective app stores was simple. I registered on the iPhone, then chose to Add a camera. At this point you can type in the camera ID number or just use the phone/tablet’s camera to scan the QR code on the back of the camera (nice touch). Next you choose your camera’s name. At this point, the screen doesn’t match the instruction manual — I can choose Cable connection, wifi already configured or wifi QR code scan. I don’t really know what it’s asking. I chose Cable connection since I have the camera plugged into the network. After I chose that, it matches the manual again and I clicked “Submit” since the camera showed as being online.

    On the iPhone, the app is simple to view the video live and the quality is excellent (640×480, which is standard for these IP cameras) and the frame rate is very excellent. Turning on audio and talking from the phone into the camera’s speaker worked well. Here is an advertisement in the app.

    I then wanted to change the camera to use wifi. The manual doesn’t quite match, but here is an online configuration option under the Wifi heading which uses the camera to show a list of available networks nearby. I chose my network, entered the password and it prompted me to unplug the network cable. It look about a full minute for it to recognize that the cable was unplugged and it then tried to connect via wireless.

    On the Google Nexus 7, when I try to view the video, it crashes and pops this message, “Unfortunately QseeEview has stopped.” So, no further Android testing for now…

    Then I tried to go to the eView website to see how I could view the camera from a computer. I tried to go to the website listed in the manual, but it wouldn’t work. After some digging I figured out that Q-See has made the silly mistake of REQUIRING the www. in front of the address. Omit WWW. and you can’t go! Hopefully they’ll fix that and I’ll delete this. Once I did get here, I logged in and it required my to install Java to view the camera. NO THANKS! That is too perilous and irritating. Fail here.

    Once I get myself a microSD card, I’ll test that feature, which is to continuously record and automatically overwrite.

    I have some more real-life testing over the next few weeks to do, but my first impression is that this is a decent camera is in the crowded field of IP cameras. This is in the simple category and I am impressed with how simple it was to setup. The quality of the video is similar to others in that category. This does have the cool feature of recording on a microSD card, which I haven’t seen on others. Keep in mind that with the simplicity comes a lack of control and a dependence on Q-See and their company staying in business and updating their apps as new phones/tablets and new OSes are released. If this makes you uncomfortable, the standard Foscam models add other fantastic features (like tilt/turn round) for much less money (but much more complexity).
