Just because it might be cheaper doesn't mean that it's better. You're required to sign up for an account somewhere overseas and some of the reviews for the app that you have to install for that process already warn about the SD card function being intentionally broken to try to force people to pay money for it, very shady. I will be returning this camera and not buying this one again. It pays to do some research and buy a different camera than this one for your security, just buy a Wyze or something, at least Wyze won't try to scam you.
