Vikeri Trail Camera, 4K 48MP Game Camera with Night Vision Motion Activated Waterproof 130°Wide-Angle, 0.05s Trigger Hunting Trail Cam with 48pcs No Glow Infrared LED for Wildlife Monitoring

Great quality for a cheaper-priced trail camera. Battery life is pretty good; night mode is good quality too. The video times for motion capture are adjustable. Picture quality is pretty good-- we haven't caught anything exciting on camera yet (just a few mice, rabbits, an outdoor cat, and sparrows), so no pictures for evidence. But we like it well enough! Was worth the buy just for checking out what visits our yard!

Works great and battery lasts forever. The camo design is a plus when you strap it to a tree.

For the price, it is not terrible, but compared to a high end trail cam, which will cost more, it is okay. You are not going to get the image quality in the ad for this cam, those were likely taken by pros with cameras that cost thousands, but if you are just looking to see what hangs out around your place when you aren't out, this is just fine. There is no 4K vid on this cam, but it is no matter, we can't see in 4K anyway. The antique transfer USB cable is useless in that the transfer rate is agonizingly slow, but most of the western world quit using those 20 years ago. The video is recorded in AVI, the card is good, and you get 4 batteries for an 8 battery compartment. It will run on 4, but not long. It does have a 6v input, for I guess, a solar panel. I figure this cam will last a couple of years with occasional use, maybe a year with regular use. We'll see.

I have eight of these cameras at present. They are very easy to set up and install. I like all of the options like photos, short videos, the lag in between shots, etc. The pictures are beautiful. We actually got our cameras because we have a neighbor who likes to trespass and harass. We now have cameras all around our fence lines that border his property. We have a farm and there is no way to use the cameras that need Internet and send pictures to phones. The distance is too great. So I bought these instead. They work wonderfully as far as deterring our neighbor, and we have been enjoying the wildlife shots. Night vision obviously is not as clear as day, but I can always see what’s happening just fine. The batteries last a very long time. I put eight of them in. I bought 32 GB cards (they do come with cards, but I bought extra so I can switch them out; never leaves the camera cardless) and have never come close to filling one up, and I use the highest resolution. I can go a couple of weeks without checking the cards and they are still not full. In very extreme weather, and I mean VERY— as in we had sections of metal roofing blowing off of our buildings and received 5 inches of rain in two hours— I did have two of the cameras get water behind the lens and where the lighting is. One of the screens even fogged up. However, I set the cameras in the sunlight and they dried out and there were no problems at all with the cards even though they got wet. These are simply excellent cameras.

UPDATE: After five months running it, I've set this camera up about 9 or 10 times and let it run. It has worked correctly maybe two of those times, and the photo quality when it has worked has been awful. In most cases, it has taken anywhere from 2 to 10 pictures and then stopped. Sometimes, it will just get me walking away from it and nothing else, when I've watched animals walk in front of it, and I've walked in front of it again myself. Sometimes, you don't even get that. I've tried every suggestion and every trick that I've learned in nearly 30 years of running trail cams, and this thing is just garbage. I regret buying it. I've owned and used a lot of trail cameras over the years, going back to the 35mm days in the mid-1990s. This one definitely isn't the worst that I've owned, but the quality is more akin to cameras that I owned a couple of generations back than the ones I use today. I was looking for a less expensive option than my current preferred brand, which costs about twice what this Vikeri costs, and I saw quite a few very good video reviews of it online, so I decided to give it a shot. The camera arrived nicely packaged. On removing it from the box, I thought the construction of the case and the latches seemed to be of a lower quality than my other cams, but that's to be expected at this price point. On the positive side, the seal around the door seemed to actually be better than my current cams, which was a big plus since I was buying it to replace a camera that had been ruined by moisture. The first surprise that I ran into is that this camera uses a micro-SD card, so if you have standard SD cards for your other cameras, be prepared for that. It does come with a cheap no-name 32gb to get you started. The second thing you need to know is that the camera is finicky with the formatting. On the first card run, the data on it would not read on any of my devices. I reformatted the card in my computer, but when I put it in the camera, it said the SD was invalid and had to format again. I accidentally moved the switch to off instead of on after that, and when I turned it back on, it again told me the SD card needed to be formatted, even though I had just formatted it in the camera seconds earlier. The menu is not completely intuitive, but not awful either. I did notice that on the setup screen, it always says the camera is in video mode, even when you have it in photo mode. I was worried about that, but it worked according to my settings rather than what it said. I also suspect the screen will not last long, as only a week into owning the camera, I'm already seeing some distorted lines along the top and bottom in the menu mode. The bracket that mounts the camera is also a little strange. Rather than running the straps through part of the camera body like others I own, there's a plastic bracket on the back of it, rounded to fit the tree. It probably works well if you use the straps to mount directly to the tree, but I use screw-in mounts, and the way that it's positioned makes it awkward and bulky for that. Finally, there's the picture quality. Daytime pictures are not bad, but night pics are pretty awful. They're very grainy and distorted compared to my other cams. Part of that can be attributed to the no-glow flash which never has the quality of IR flash, but I don't think that's the complete issue. Ultimately, I guess, you get what you pay for. If you're looking for a budget camera just to show you what's in the woods, this will probably work for you (though I do have concerns about how long it will last, especially the screen which is already giving me problems a week in). If you prefer higher quality pictures, especially at night, I'd look elsewhere.

I'm impressed! I bought this camera in early winter 2024 in hopes it would take videos in cold temps. My popular brand trail cameras stopped working below 40 degrees. I've had this one out almost every day. This camera recorded 20 degrees with sharp videos. And still working strong. The LEDs are indeed invisible, and the nighttime illumination is much brighter than my other cameras. It has 4K settings, but I'm only using 1920x1080p, and the videos look great. The trigger is a little slower than advertised, but not too bad. It only uses a micro SD card (not included), which I take out and read with a card reader. The USB cable method is ultra slow. It is rainproof. It has a screw mount for a camera tripod size screw, for mounting on a angle bracket on a pole if you don't want to use a strap. My only complaints are the case latches are small for my large fingers, and a standard SD card size would be better for me. But the price is great. I'm buying more after I finish this review.

We were having issues with people trespassing in our yard and I didn't want to spend hundreds for a camera security system (Sorry Best Buy). So I did my research on YouTube and watched reviews in this camera. Very flexible with its settings for both picture's/ videos and the infrared lighting works great and it basically invisible at night. The cammo pattern on the camera helps it blend in with the tree and it's actually hard to see unless your looking for it...after dusk it's basically invisible. It comes with a 32GB micro SD card but I put a 128 GB card in it...works like a charm and I may gat a second one as well. I will post actual video and pictures from it tomorrow. 5 Stars from me Cyril Ontario, Canada

NO SIRVE ESTE EQUIPO, CUANDO HAY UN MOVIMIENTO UN POCO RAPIDO NO LO DETECTA. TAMBIEN SOLO PUEDES VER 13 FOTOS. ES DECIR CUANDO LA CAMARA TOMA MUCHAS FOTOS SOLO PUEDES VER 13 FOSTOS Y LUEGO SE CONGELA LA CAMARA, NO SE APAGA NI CAMBIA DE MODO. HAY QUE RETIRAR LA BATERIA PARA QUE VUELVA A FUNCIONAR. EN POCAS PALABRAS. NO SIRVE

Good camera, excellent night vision and great sound, easy to set up. Will be buying 2 more. I have 3 Spypoint cameras with built in solar panels, other than good battery life, they suck on everything els at triple the price!
