This wired camera from Philips Hue offers clear image quality, a wide field of view, and an easy setup. Storage options are convenient and the two-pack provides good value for monitoring multiple areas.

The Philips Hue Wired Plug-in Security Camera White (2-Pack) has been a fantastic addition to my home security setup. I really love the crisp 2K video quality, which makes it easy to see details clearly during the day and at night, and the wide field of view gives me great coverage without feeling like I need cameras everywhere. The smart motion detection is another feature I really appreciate because it helps alert me when activity is detected, and I love being able to customize motion zones and notifications. Setup was straightforward, and the cameras integrate and update seamlessly with my existing Philips Hue system and Hue app. Being able to connect my security cameras with my smart lighting and have my Hue lights respond to activity is such a convenient feature. The cameras also have a clean, modern design that looks great around the home, while being suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Overall, the Philips Hue Wired Plug-in Security Camera gives me excellent video quality, smart features, reliable connectivity, and great integration with my smart home, making this 2-pack an easy five-star recommendation.

I am honestly so impressed with these cameras! Install AND setup insanely easy to do. Installing the camera took maybe 2-3 minutes. It took me longer to decide where I wanted it pointed than it did to put the bases up and attach the cameras. The app walks you through the entire setup process step by step and I had zero issues with getting everything connected. The magnetic mount is probably one of my favorite things about it. The magnet is super strong, but you can still adjust the camera easily! The video quality is exceptional! I was genuinely surprised by how clear the picture is on screen. You can also use the voice function to talk through the camera, which is a really convenient! You can also take photos and those save just as clearly! Overall I’m extremely satisfied with with these. Everything was easy to get going, video quality exceeded my expectations, and features are really useful!
Works well but requires subscription for main function

The camera works well and has a great resolution, however, it requires a subscription to see video history. The other thing to note is it is wired, so needs to be plugged into an outlet which isn’t always ideal for outdoor camera (our other cameras run on solar power).
Works and easy to install

Easy to install but I wish it had a better design to hang on wall . Clear video and pristine color . Took about 5 minutes to hang on wall . Comes with everything you need to have good security in home . Definitely worth getting. App works great for any device. The magnetic accessories make it easy to rotate . So if you’re looking for a good security device system this one might be the one
Nice cameras

Absolute Worst Product You Can Spend Your Money On

The Hue Secure Camera is, without question, one of the most disappointing smart home products I've ever purchased. For a premium-priced camera, I expected premium performance. Instead, I got unreliable software, limited functionality, and a system that feels white-labeled. I regret buying it and wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Save yourself the money and look elsewhere - this is easily one of the worst products you can spend your money on.
Not worth the money. No Apple HomeKit support

I bought 3 cameras a while ago because hue promised to support apple home in the future, well that “future” has never arrived and looks like Philips hue has completely abandoned their promise. The cameras themselves are garbage with the hue app and on top of the price hue wants 99$ subscription for these garbage cameras. I have completely lost any trust in this garbage company if they promise something and fail to deliver
