Creative Live! Cam IP SmartHD technical features

Unboxing and design

Creative introduces us to Creative Live! IP Cam SmartHD in a compact box in full color that details the exact model and its recording in 720 HD.

While in the back there are all its technical characteristics in detail and the content of it.

Once we open it and as we expected, it comes perfectly protected and brings a wide range of accessories. We detail what the bundle incorporates:

Creative Live! IP Cam SmartHD. USB cable. Power adapter. Installation base. Instruction manual and quick guide.

Creative Live! IP Cam SmartHD It has dimensions of 121 x 70 x 70 mm and a weight of 94 grams. Its design leaves behind the classic of webcam cameras and has one more similar to that of basic surveillance cameras.

Among its features we find a 1.3 MP CMOS sensor that allows night vision with 4 LEDs with IR-Cut filter. Its viewing angle is 110º and allows for digital zoom.

Once you connect your camera to your Wi-Fi network and you can watch the videos with an iOS or Android device, on a PC or Mac and also in high definition. It also comes equipped with night vision and so you can see every corner, even if the light is low. All of them in MP4 H.264 video format or in photos in JPEG format.

If by chance there is a movement or sound in your home, it will send an alert to your mobile and immediately start recording. You can adjust the sensitivity so that you really control the things that are important.

To access the camera we must do it via Wi-Fi. Since it supports IEEE 802.11b / g / n standard Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi frequency : 2.4GHz, Wi-Fi security : WPA2-PSK, WPA-PSK and network connection: Peer to Peer (P2P).

Final impressions

To use it you must turn on the camera, install Live! Cam App on your smart device and scan the QR code so that the camera is added to your account. You can connect up to 4 cameras and you can see all the recordings on a single screen.

The details are seen perfectly thanks to the 720p of high definition and the capture that includes a field of vision of 110 degrees wide and you can enlarge the video to see a closer detail. The quality is good and we believe that it is more than adequate as an occasional webcam and surveillance camera.

Its price ranges from 75 euros in online stores, it is not bad if you use it as multi-use but there are cheaper webcams that offer similar performance but are always connected to your computer.

We are now at the end of the article, and the Professional Review team awards him the silver medal.
