GardePro X50 Cellular Trail Camera (AT&T & T-Mobile)

A great quality trail camera with lots of features of an old school camera but the convenience of cell service.The plans to get your pictures on your phone is a great price, but the quality is low.The pictures on the card of great quality.

I really wanted to love this camera for the build quality and price. Unfortunately, this trail cam has become worthless in just a couple months of ownership. Initially I had some issues getting it to connect to the cell service even through the T-Mobile tower was right next to my property. Finally, after getting that worked out, I thought I was all set for hunting season. On 11/18/24 the app showed full cell service and 81% battery. That was the last update I received. On 11/24 I was shocked that I had no new pics or video transfers in an active hunting season with a known ton of deer on the property. I retrieved the camera to troubleshoot and after using a multimeter, found that all 8 lithium batteries were completely dead. Very disappointing but I thought that maybe it didn't play well with good lithium batteries. I threw in a new set of Energizer Max batteries. The camera turned on but would no longer reactivate. I attempted to delete it and add as new, but further software issues prevented me from doing this.I expect a trail cam to work flawlessly during active hunting season, but this camera has been the exact opposite. It seems that in my experience, the only stable piece of software is the renewal plan for service where the company makes monthly revenue. I'm out of my return window and missed out on a full week of picture updates during hunting season. This camera has been thrown in the trash and I will look to use a more reputable company for next season. I'd give this 0 stars if it were an option.

I bought one of these and it worked so good at such an affordable price I bought another! Great high quality pictures and video, though quality is diminished most of the time over cellular. You can request high def pics or videos over cellular but that costs more. You can always download the chips and get high quality that way too. The app is easy to use and give very quick timely notifications. I am very happy with these cameras!

First let me say that this camera did the job, but I understand why it was 50% off when I bought it.If I was buying a camera for the first time this wouldn't be the one unless my budget was tight.The bad:For starters, the camera quality that it shown on the product descriptions is a borderline lie.I have NEVER got an image that had the quality that is shown on here. I had thought that using the internal image would produce a better result, but it did not. I even paid for the HD pictures and it still is very pixelated when you zoom in. The picture quality just isn't there.The second is connectivity. I am constantly having to go down and reset the device or restart it to get pictures to sync over. Although they did save to the device itself.I have yet to be able to record a loop video after having this thing for a year. It just won't work for me.The Good:The sensitivity for triggering pictures is amazing. This thing will pick up a mouse if the sensitivity is set high enough. The pricing is fair for what you are getting. Lastly the durability is very good. This thing made it through negative temps, wind rain and sun and it still works.Overall:If you want a cheaper camera and want something on a budget this will work. But if you are wanting something with great picture quality this isn't the one for you. If you have the money, throw and extra 100$ at it and have a really, really nice one.

I have two cell cameras of this model. They both worked well all summer and early fall. Suddenly, at end of October the cameras would lose connection with my phone. The cameras are in two different farms in two different states. It's a software/company issue. Support does not offer any help. Eventually it connects again, usually after many hours,, but it sucks when it happens during hunting season.Monthly cost is not bad, $15 unlimited but one might want to look at more reliable cameras

We have property that is a couple hours away, there is no power at the property, but there is cell service.. We mounted this up in a tree pointed down at an angle, it has allowed us to keep an eye on the property without any hassles.. The only thing is, if you are expecting the same quick response like a Blink camera, this is not that.. it takes a picture, then sends it to your phone when it uploads, it doesn't upload as motion is detected.. But I can say when someone walked onto our property it sent me a notification and I was able to send pic to neighbor down the road and he checked it out... Great unit

After using Moultrie mobile and these guard pro cameras for a couple of years, there's no comparison between the two. These eat batteries up, have sketchy reception, and or just a little more difficult to set up. Plus they require a drive which the Moultrie doesn't. The Moultrie is super easy compared to these and takes great pictures

I have six of these cameras and for the $ they're hard to beat. I managed to buy each of them a discounted price so their value is excellent. I probably wouldn't buy on at full retail but Amazon puts them on sale often. I did have one camera fail after a year of use but GardePro customer service was excellent to work with, ultimately replacing the camera with a new one. I also have several non-cellular GardePro cameras which are excellent. I will not hesitate to purchase GardePro cameras in the future.
