This is the 808 key fob camera, and I received version #3 one of the best (Google for more info). Picture quality is very good considering the incredibly tiny lens don't expect DVD quality but it's good and not choppy. It is "zoomed in" more than you would think so do a test run or two to become familiar with aiming. I use it to record various activities that my smart and devious Maltese gets into so I'm not particularly concerned with hiding the cam but I can assure you it's discreet if you needed it to be. It does have a small indicator light on the top but luckily it goes out when recording, this should be a given but most of these "spy cams" have a bright LED blinking light when recording (seems counter-intuitive). Speaking of which, here's a quick version of how to operate:Hold down power button for about 2 seconds, the yellow indicator light comes on and stays on.
To begin recording press the (separate) recording button for about 2 seconds, the yellow light will blink three times then go out, now your recording. VERY simple.
Takes a good 2.5 hours to fully charge, but that's because it has a nice big battery. Mine lasted for 1 hour and 45 minutes of constant recording before depleting. That's LONG for this sort of thing. When I opened the files on my SD card I had 4 automatically saved files...Three were 30 minute clips and one 15. Total file size was about 2.5 GB so buy a 4GB SD card to go with this, 2GB and you will cut short, 8GB is way too much.
Incredible deal for ~$15 shipped...I would pay 2-3x that and still be happy.Not much more of the product description is accurate. There isn't a wide-angle lens -the FOV is actually pretty narrow. The video function doesn't record in 480p -it records in 720x480 (interlaced, not progressive) MJPG. The device supports SD cards up to 8GB in size -but with MJPG "video," about 1GB is used up every 20 minutes. 30 frames per second are chopped apart and look like 15 or so. The low-quality image sensor blurs anything it can. The instructions come in Chinese or nonsensical, broken English. And the color balance is hardly "full color," whatever that means -daylight shots are blown out, and night shots are nothing but darkness.
In short, look elsewhere if you're after a super-lightweight camera.

After charging and working briefly, the lithium battery went haywire and starded heating up to the point of burning whatever touched it (my finger). Couldn't even turn it off at that point, so we put it outside so it wouldn't start a house fire.Want 808 Car Key Chain Spy Camera Recorder 720*480 TF - New Discount?
Fantastic little video camera for the price. We mounted it to a model rocket and it took a hard landing and still works great. I may purchase another!
