While it’s wireless, you still have to attach the camera somewhere.

You also can add a micro-SD card for longer recording times or subscribe to YI’s cloud storage service, which starts at $15 for a three-month plan and seven days of recording history. You can run the camera without adding any internal storage and simply send six-second clips directly from the camera to your phone. There’s also a microphone and speaker, in case you want to have a friendly conversation with your local burglar (or the delivery driver, whomever comes first).

Its IP-65 rating means you don’t have to worry about it getting wet, though I haven’t tested it in a full downpour yet.

The camera itself streams and records 1080p video at 20 frames per second with a 140-degree field of view. Given that you’re not likely to do that under normal circumstances - and that YI promises up to six months of battery life - this should do just fine. The fact that it’s wireless worried me a bit, given that I wasn’t sure how long those four 2600 mAh batteries would last, but even after a few hours of essentially live-streaming a picture of my backyard, the battery is still at 75%. With the Kami Wire-Free Outdoor Camera (that’s its full name), you get a bullet-style camera that you can easily put anywhere you want, thanks to its wireless design.

After spending some time with it, it’s clear that while it doesn’t quite provide the same experience you’d get from a wired $400 Nest Cam IQ or similar product, it’s a solid security camera and the ease of use makes up for its shortcomings. Recently, the company’s Kami brand launched its $90 battery-powered outdoor camera. You’ve probably come across YI’s range of affordable security cameras while browsing on Amazon or other shopping sites in the past.
