Anybody using one?
If so what are your thoughts? Is it worth buying one or is it better to just keep pulling cards?

Buy any of the Verizon ones or the ATT ones that say 4G LTE on them. Love mine so far. I know they miss a picture every now and again but definitely serves their purpose

I bought the same one that you did for a trial run - I thought I'd try the $99 camera before I got a $275 Spartan. Maybe I don't miss too much. I've got 3 pics sent since I put it out last night on what I think is a buck trail with nothing in the pic but the brush. I'm hoping it was just the wind and not slow trigger speed. I've got a friend that has about 6 of them and really likes them, we'll see.

I've had my Micro for a few months. No complaints.

It is my only camera now. I just move it around as needed. Trying to put the mystery back into hunting by eliminating some cameras.

Had one for about 18 months. Worked fine.

Tried to do the firmware update, acted like it worked. Camera never worked right again. Would search for signal and eat up batteries. Tech support was useless.

I have 16 k pics transferred on my Verizon Micro since June it has done pretty well. It isn’t a high resolution as my browning cams but for the money I would by another

Just dont buy one expecting them to be flawless. They are what they are. Youll miss a few pics, theyll be some it dont transmit. It will at some point quit working and youll have to wait on the phone for an hour to get to talk to somebody, but when you finally get them theyll work hard to get the problem resolved or theyll send you another camera. Youll be glad you bought them at times and at times theyll tick you off. But you wont have to go to the woods once a week and pull cards and thats what youre after.

If you set it where it only transmits 2 times a day and takes a picture every 3 minutes it will last a long time.

I just started having issues with mine recently. It shows that I'm getting a good signal and that the camera is active, but it shows anywhere from 14% down to 0% battery even with brand new fresh out of the pack Energizers or Duracells. Since Monday I have changed the batteries 3 times and got only 2 pictures sent. Those two pics were here at the house because I brought it home to figure out why it wasn't working. Put it back on the tree today and it isn't working again. I know it isn't the location because in the previous couple of weeks it has sent about 1500 pics. As I stated above it is getting a really good signal. It's taking pics (I checked the card), it just isn't sending them and shows zero or near zero battery. I put a new card in it while I had it here at the house. Signal 4/5, battery 0%(brand new Energizers), sd card 1%. I'm dreading trying to contact tech support because I only understand southern English, not that weird version of English that they speak in New Delhi or Indonesia.

So far the spypoint has been fine as long as it has good service but my brother has a Spartan that I like a whole lot better.

AT&T. Verizon service not real good where im at. I cant get a good signal on north facing side of the mtn. South facing side is good. I have to have three bars to transmit right. The cameras never get as good a signal as my phone.

Ok, now I feel really stupid. I made one more try at it before I was going to call tech. I found my battery tester out and opened the camera up. When I pulled the 4AA batteries out I noticed that the battery case seemed loose. It was. I pulled it out and found 4 more batteries on the back side of it. slap My son had put the batteries in it originally and I never knew it held 8 of them. Problem fixed. You would think that with 4 new and 4 old batteries it would have shown somewhere around 50%. If it had I would have figured it out pretty quick.
