I have 2 of these and I have nothing bad to say I set it up per the directions and it sends pictures to my phone like it should. I do have it set to send every picture and believe it are not the batteries which aren’t lithium are still over 40% after 3 weeks. The picture quality isn’t 4K but it’s plenty good enough for a deer camera. I believe all these folks complaining about picture quality are expecting to much out of a camera that has to send pictures across a cellular service miles away. These little cameras are definitely worth a go I suggest getting one and bring it out to your hunting property to see if it will work then get a few more. Like a hunting buddy said the best way to gage these cameras is if you can’t use your phone the camera want work ether.
Absolutely! Couldn't agree more. We like them because of the price point. We can get 5-6 cameras for the price of one really expensive one. That way we can be confident in our scouting on public land. Thanks for watching and commenting. We really appreciate it. Hope you had a successful hunt.
Great video guy thanks for the information. I’m just gonna go out on a limb here but I think 99 percent of bush lite sales are from Michigan- Wisconsin area Lolol 😉
All you will get maybe two years of cellular service. I have bought about 15 of these cameras through the years. The last one I bought, I started using it 7/30/2021. Taking pictures until 7/30/23, just stopped like all the rest. Get a Pro Scout Max cellular trail camera from Browning.
Thanks for the feedback. To each their own. We now own 5. 1 since 2017. 3 since 2018 and 1 since 2019. We keep up with the firmware updates….we’ve legit never had a single problem with them. And no we are not being paid to say that. Thanks for checking us out and dropping a comment!
Yes I kept the camer(s) firmware updated called SpyPoint a dozens times no luck. Two years ago I cancelled a plan, but they kept charging me monthly. Finally had to cancel the card and get a new one. $15x6=90 dollars I was out of. Glad your is working, Happy Hunting! One time I was on the phone waiting for two hours and never got to talk to anyone, they just hung up...@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors
Bought 2 Spypoint FLEX-S. Would never purchase another Spypoint based on the results I got with both of them. The purpose of buying a cellular camera with a solar panel in addition to the back-up batteries is to avoid having to travel to the location and disturbing the area. I spent hours on hold and hours on the phone with the service rep. only to have them tell me I would need to have the camera in hand in order for them to help me. In the month that I had them active they never worked more than 4 days without going down and needing reset. I had to go to them location pull the camera and (install a new SD card or Replace batteries that were less than a week old or turn it off and on again) Each "solution" lasted less than a week and I was back at it again. If you do purchase Spypoint or any brand for that matter, purchase one month plan to start. If you have better luck than me, and I hope you do, then you can purchase the yearly plan.
Thanks for watching and sharing your experience. We have not tried the FLEX-S yet but have had no problems with the first gen FLEX. Stop back and share with us what brand of tail can you settle on and how they work for you. Would love to review other trail cams. Thanks again for watching. Best of luck in the woods this season.
We like this particular spy point camera because of the price and it does what we want it to do. Does it do it really well, no. The picture quality is so so. It does not have video capability. But again, you get what you pay for. It's a great little cellular camera for the price.
So far my SPYPOINT camera is garbage. I bought 1 from Amazon, and I sat with tech support for a while trying to get it to do anything. They ended up sending me another one, and the new one takes pictures but doesn’t send them to me. I’ve got the solar powered 1
Dana - that sucks to hear. We will be honest, we have a love hate relationship with the SPYPOINT. For the most part we have had luck with them and haven't had many issues with them. And we like the price point of these cameras. But we have had a couple of issues that warranted a new camera. Best of luck and thanks for sharing your feedback and concern about these cameras as well.
Is there any separate solar panel (such as the Rexing universal solar panel ) available that can connect to the Non solar spypoint cellular camera to function to charge the camera?? eg, browning makes a solar panel that can connect by wire to any browning cellular camera and the panel can be pointed south to the sun while the camera on same tree is pointed east along the deer trail and mock scrape etc.. appreciate your input. Thanks. Drew
Sir well I don't hunt anymore but I was going to buy one then to watch my porch all that for human beings they ain't going to be deer or nothing like that but did he got the new cameras out now if you got a link where you know send it to me and like you're saying what towers all that signal all that I appreciate it I like to see you and her video before I buy one okay thank you sir have a good day
I've been looking to get a trail camera I always have deer and such around the garden and the house sometimes bears! I'm looking for a wireless solar trail cameras! I can' t find one that's isn't too expensive! I also just be fun to do to see what I'll catch!
With my SPYPOINT I can’t tell what is in the picture a lot of the time, image quality via app is very poor. That’s if it even gets signal at all (not good). Bushnell Cellucore 20 has been sweet so far!
So far that's been our experience as well. Seems like sunlight and camera placement is 90% of the battle. We find that looking at the pics on our computer seem to be better. We will check out the Bushnell. Thanks for the suggestion.
You may be correct. Our review was specifically on cellular cameras for under $140. The Exodus Render looks like an awesome camera but it is also a $335 camera. Thanks for watching our video and taking the time to comment. Good luck this season.
Why do you say it’s the best? Is it better than the $650 RECONYX? Just curious because I’m wanting a really good cell camera for security. I hate to pay $600-$650 for one when I can get just as good of one for less.
Thanks for dropping in Jeff. Your question is very valid. We do talk about this in the video and in the reply above to RX1Hunter’s comment. For this review, we were specifically targeting the best cell cam for the cheapest price. We know there are much more superior trail cams than what spypoint as to offer in their $60-$140 range, but our goal was to review a camera in that price range. We would never spend that much on cell cam equipment bc we are 100% public land….vandalism and bears don’t care if the camera is $75 or $650. We’d suggest trying something like a spypoint if your main purpose is security. But take that as a grain of salt….we really have no eye deer what we’re doing. Good luck and keep us posted what direction you go!
Do you gots an email address you can share? Got a joke for you but I can’t type it in the comments her on the u tube ya know. Might get suspended or something.
Shutter speed is half a second? No, no. no. Please be careful and use the correct terminology, here it matters. Shutter speed is the length of time the shutter STAYS OPEN exposing the sensor. During half a second you would get a blurry image 95 percent of the time. TRIGGER SPEED is the time between the camera being inactive to being active. Trigger speed of half a second would be the correct statement.
Interesting take. Piss poor deer areas are subjective, I guess. Don't always have to be in the boonies to get meat to put in your freezer. 🤷🏼♂️ Thanks for watching!
Valid point….one of our most productive deer harvesting weapons was a 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. That baby helped us bag a 142” 10 pointer on highway 53 just north of 29.
Well if you look at where there's cell service for these spypoints. Pretty much everywhere is covered except way up north and out west. If most the Midwest is covered..then I'd say it's not a piss poor deer area lol. I see some big boys in the city too so..
What country are you looking to use spypoint? From their website you can find USA, Canada and Europe contact information. I don't know if this answers your question. Thanks for watching and let us know if you have any more questions or what country you are looking to use them in.
There is a referral program. If you refer someone and when they register their camera they put your email in and you get a discount for future products.
There is a definitely a drop off in picture quality for this particular camera in this particular price point. There are some drawbacks but again, you get what you pay for. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the insight. $400 for an entry level reconyx….it better last for ever. And for that price, it should be able to do other things too, like give back massages, cook spaghetti, and deliver us Busch lights. Thanks for checking out the video and dropping some insight.
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors Just for the record. We still have a Reconyx from when the company started 20+/- years ago and it uses a CF card. But it works flawlessly and the lithium batteries are nearly full after an entire year and thousands of pics. (We use plastic sleeves to convert from D batteries to AA) Not one of our cameras have stopped working. They cost a lot initially but they are far less expensive in the long run.
LOL! Yes, you are correct. After we filmed this we noticed that. We are currently using a cell link and waiting to get more pictures to see how we like it. But $39.99 is not bad at all.
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors I got three more from Sportsmans guide and I’m a member also and I use a $20 dollar off code from KBALLISTICS. Got them shipped and after taxes for $32.00 each. I mainly want the spare parts because we have a lot of bears and they love my antennas. 😂

I had 3 of them and have nothing good to say. They work for about 1 month and then they do an update mid hunting season rendering them useless

@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors I bought a Tactacam xb with a solar panel that has a battery built in for $219
And what are thoughts on that camera so far? We’ve heard good things about Tactacam.
@@NoEyeDeerOutdoors so far it’s a great camera, good pictures. Maybe I’ll become a UA-camr and do a review lol
That would be awesome. Do it. OR we could have you on via zoom this summer and you can give us your thoughts and review it together, eh? 😉

I run a 12 volt battery.
That is actually a great idea. We did that for one season. Actually don't have a reason why we didn't do that again. Thanks for highlighting 12 volts.
Know what you call a deer with no eyes and no legs??? Still no eye deer!
