GSI Quality Mini DVR With High-Definition 720p Photo And Video Camera - LCD Screen, Micro SD Memory

GREAT ITEM...I had to prove someone was vandalizing my home in order to press charges on them. I purchased this device because it is small, it recorded, takes pictures, and not too expensive. This device did the trick. With this device I was able to record the person who was destroying my home. When confronted he denied it of course, but with the evidence I had I was able to press charges. This device has a clear facial recognition feature. This device is what ultimately is what got the charges to stick.

This mini DVR has no motion detection and cannot be used as a security camera by itself as implied in the advertisement. The battery only lasts for about an hour. I bought this to record for at least 12 hours straight or much less with motion detection. For my use this is just a toy which I gave to my daughter. It records videos for a maximum of 18 minutes on low resolution according to its internal RAM size. Then it pauses a few seconds and records another 18 minute video until the micro SD card (bought separately-not provided) is filled.

My 7 year old daughter loves it! A cheaper video recorder broke after a week. Let's see how this one fairs with all her recordings.

Update from an hour after writing the above: The mini DVR broke. Costs more and lasted less than the cheaper ones. The color is off quite a lot and there is a little jiggling noise inside. It seems like one of the photo sensors jarred loose inside. We received this a few days ago. Back it goes to Amazon.
