Nexia Wireless Indoor HD Camera, WCW200 , White

INDOOR CAMERA NOW HAS HD SETTING...I hesitated to purchase this camera due to all the bad reviews about the quality of the video. However, I decided I would go ahead and buy it so I could compare it next to the Nexia Home Intelligence Outdoor Camera that I had recently purchased.. After setting it up with my Nexia system, I was very happy to see that the Indoor Camera actually has 3 Video Resolution Levels (Low 320x240, High 640x480 and HD 1280x720) versus just 2 Video Resolution Levels for the Outdoor Camera (Low 320x240 and High 640x480). After setting up the Indoor Camera next to the Outdoor Camera to compare them side-by-side, it was easy to see that the Indoor camera works great especially on the HD setting which is much clearer than the "High" Video Resolution Level on the Outdoor Camera. I am really happy that I decided to give this Camera a try...the video is very clear, easy to setup with Nexia and can be positioned as necessary with the adjustable stand. I plan on purchasing another one.

Unfortunately it looks like Nexia got the cart before the horse on this camera. After setting up the camera, i compared its resolution to the resolution of my other Nexia indoor cameras. This one is running at the same resolution as the older cameras, 640x480. I called tech support and they confirmed that their software currently only supports this lower resolution. They assured me that the camera is indeed capable of 720 resolution, and that they are working on a software upgrade to support viewing at the higher resolution. Unfortunately they didn't give me a timetable on the upgrade. Other than Nexia's viewable resolution, the camera is adequate. As long as you have an average knowledge of these types of devices and know how to follow directions, setup shouldn't be a problem for you. The camera displays a decently clear image during the daytime (at 480 resolution), but is pretty fuzzy in infrared night vision mode. I have it installed outside under the cover of a carport (Nexia Schlage doesn't recommend it being outside) and I haven't had any connectivity issues so far. UPDATE: Nexia's software now supports recording in 720p on this camera. Using the Nexia website, you can view or download recordings at 720p. However, you are still only able to view real time video in 480p. I have adjusted my rating up to 3 stars because of the added recording resolution.

*See comments for review update* While I really love most of the Schlage/Nexia Home Intelligence accessories, this camera is the exception. It works as it should, but purchasers should understand that the video data is not streamed directly for viewing inside your local network; instead the video data is first streamed across the Internet (encrypted, if I remember correctly) to Nexia's IT infrastructure, and then sent back down to your computer or mobile device for viewing. This causes sometimes significant delays between what the camera is seeing real-time and what's shown on the screen. This also can effect the quality of the image as well. I believe this is done to make the images available from anywhere on multiple devices, but it isn't a very efficient implementation IMHO. I captured network traffic to/from the device in order to see exactly where it was going to/coming from, and these were my findings. I attempted to confirm this with the company, but have yet to get a response. If you're simply looking for a camera to occasionally view/record images from both a PC/Mac or smartphone, this is a decent solution. If you're looking for a robust surveillance solution, I would not recommend this. Disclaimer: If someone from Schlage/Nexia disputes this account, kindly contact me providing accurate details and I will gladly retract or amend this review.

Terrible WIFI radio, even when its 5 feet from different routers. I have had a bunch of these and they are garbage. A cheap $20 camera sold for $200. Used every generation of their garbage since 2010. The Nest camera I purchased have yet to fail

This indoor camera was easy to setup and enable it to be wireless. The picture quality is great and goes great with my other Nexia products. I will definitely purchase again if I have the need for multiple indoor cameras

On the surface, this is a very affordable indoor security camera, which when it works seems to be of serviceable quality. The problem is the frequency with which these cameras unexpectedly disconnect or else whilst appearing to be connected, relay an error message about the video feed and simply display a black screen. Sometimes unplugging and re-plugging (to reboot) fixes the problem, but sometimes not. Sometimes the camera must be "removed" and then "added". And sometimes that doesn't help. I have had to reset the camera with a paper clip so the MAC address could be keyed back in. And then the act of simply adding the camera and connecting it to wifi has required a number of attempts before it finally takes. My acquiring six of these cameras for under a grand might have seemed a good deal, but due to the unreliability and difficulty getting them to connect even for a couple of days, I cannot call these a good value. Being out of town and unexpectedly not being to access my cameras makes them pretty much worthless.

Works great. Love being able to see video on my phone. In addition to security use, I use it to check on my son when he's hanging out in the media room with his friends.

I've been a Nexia subscriber since 2009. Back then it was Schlage. They had small amount of products in their ecosystem at the time. Since Nexia took over the Schlage company they have been slowly rolling out some products to add to home automation. Which is a good thing. More options and trying to keep up with fast pace technology. However this product is an epic fail on Nexia's part. I purchased this camera to change out the original Schlage WCW100 Wifi camera which has a resolution of 640x480. It is not bad for a camera I purchased 5 years ago. But we are now in 2015 and their are a lot of options in surveillance cams since 2010. So you would think a company who charges $125.00 a year for subscription service would be super competitive in the fast paced tech world. If this is their best attempt I seriously have to start considering jumping off the Nexia train. This camera is cheaply made and feels that way right out of the box. Very cheaply made for a $150 price tag. My biggest problem though is the resolution. This camera states it's 720p. There is no way in the world this camera is 720p. I compared it side by side with my 5 year old WCW100 Schlage camera that has a resolution of 640x480 and the picture quality is much better on my older camera. How is that possible? Also the night vision that this camera is stated to have does nothing. The picture is black and super fuzzy when trying to view in the dark. I'm really disappointed that this is Nexia's best attempt at an HD camera in 2015. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time with this overpriced, low quality, cheaply made, non existent night vision camera. With other companies like Dropcam, Samsung and D-link offering true HD cameras, 2 way talk, cloud storage and zoom this camera should cost $39.99 at best.
