Foscam FI9853EP review

This is a conventional form factor for outdoor security cameras, built by Foscam, an established brand, but it comes with an improved iOS/Android app and support for all of the main browsers. You won’t find features like motion zone attenuation or object recognition on this budget camera, but you will be reassured by its near bomb-proof construction.

Design and build

The dome design is a practical one because it presents the lowest profile and strongest shape when it bulges from an exterior wall or high ceiling. This device weighs over half a kilo because the housing and bracket are made of metal and the dome is quite large. Priced at £75 (around $90, AU$120), it feels like you’re getting a lot of camera for your money when you compare it with the flimsy D-Link DSC-2530L that costs around £100 (about $125, AU$160) more.
