I initially purchased the camera from bestbuy.com for $29.99 to try it out (from the
slickdeals post of Mach_1) which I had no problem price matching (chat) after I saw this.
My initial reaction is that the camera is not the best but decent for my purpose (comparing to my Nest devices which was so much more expensive).
Adding to my Smartthings using an android phone kept on giving me issues. Used an iPhone and it worked fine. Wifi antenna (at least 5Ghz) seems to not be as strong (another IoT device beside it had full bar). It comes with 24 hours events history (up to 4 cameras) for the free tier but $7.99/month for a 30 day history. Live viewing/24 hour history was fine for my purpose.

The camera needing power is just my guess
