Sorriest cameras I have ever used in my life-Quote me on that. The amazing thing is they keep on billing my account without interruption, but the cameras will not send anything to me in the cold we have now.

I have an old Cuddebak in a thicket beside the house that uses an SD card. It is at least 8 years old and hasn't missed a lick yet. I know it is not cellular, but at least there are pictures of what is going on there. If we all put our minds together, we could come up with a camera that would be better than anything on the market today. I am ready for a dependable and affordable cellular camera!


I can't stand a thief.

A lot of time with these and other brands, in cold weather it is the batteries not the camera. Even in good weather

I owned 9 of them. All 9 were returned to Spypoint and three made multiple trips. They would quit sending pics in the middle of the week and all it would take was to turn it off and back on. Kinda sucks when you are 3.5 hours away. Wouldn’t update, constantly locking up during firmware updates. Just plain quit working in the middle of the season.

The last time I dealt with them I broke them out to update in the preseason and not a one of them would take the firmware update. Called Spypoint and they said to put the cameras outside where they wiould get good signal and they would manually update them and it would take about 12 hours. Three days later they are all on the back deck with red lights blinking. Call Spypoint again and they said to send them back. Two weeks later I get a box with 9 brand new cameras.

They went right on eBay. Screw Spypoint……. If you aren’t having problems with them just be patient.

Canadian owned China made = a lot of problems without resolution. I have several Reconyx in Kansas that didn't miss a lick in sub zero temps

My older Spypoints worked great and long enough if they die today I got my money's worth.

I have 3-4 newer Micro LTEs I have put out this deer season and they appear to be complete POS. Don't send photos need to be reset turned off/on, etc. 100% Garbage.

I have 2 LM2 also deployed this fall.... working flawlessly so far.

It's hit or miss apparently. Try the LM2.

I had one of the micro lte for 3-4 years. Finally died this year. Out of warranty so they gave me a discount. Went with the flex g36 and it is working great and much better pic quality

Switched from SpyPoint to Tactacam. Tactacam far less trouble.

90% of everyone’s problem with spypoint is batteries or the sd card.

And honestly, if you get 2-3 years out of a game camera (minus something like reconyx) you got your money’s worth

Can you put a camera out where I plan on hunting Saturday so I can determine whether I need to change spots or not?

I have Flex G36 and it works, it is sd card sensitive. I have 3 stealthcam Fusion Pro's which I really like. Batteries last forever if you don't do on demand photo. I have 2 moultrie delta points, they are pretty good. Batteries last a long time. But I don't always get notifications. I have 4 or 5 tactacams., and they are great, when they work. When they don't, they eat batteries and don't communicate. 3 were sent back, one was replaced. 2 were "repaired". One of them I sent back and upgraded, the other is sitting on top of my fridge, it takes blurry pics.

I havent had any problems except this. I watched a little buck in front of a camera for 20min yesterday evening. Its set to take pics every 1minute. I only got one picture and it was when he was the furtherest away, no pictures as he got closer. No telling how often that happens and i dont know it
