What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing is inconsistent about the data trial length, stating both three and seven days. It also gives model ZY-G5 in the identity details but ZY-C5 as the model number and part number, and its 2K 3MP claim appears alongside a separate 1440p video-resolution entry. Confirm the selected version and trial terms. The claimed 128GB storage capacity refers to TF-card support, and the card is sold separately. A 6-second recording and seven-day loop is described only when using the built-in SIM. Ceiling mounting is listed in one field but explicitly ruled out in another. The claimed solar charging and battery figures are manufacturer statements, not runtime guarantees.

Customer feedback highlights ease of installation, functionality and perceived value, with a report of good performance in bad weather. Those impressions may matter for an outdoor solar-assisted camera, but they do not establish its coverage, image quality or reliability in a particular installation. Ratings are mostly five-star, alongside a meaningful lower-star share, so experiences are not uniformly positive.
Positive themes
- Customers describe it as easy to install.
- Feedback appreciates its functionality and perceived value.
- One customer report says it performs well in bad weather.
