might be cool weekend project to take it apart to try to fix it. I would personally buy a similar product from a different brand though

I actually took it apart by following a reddit thread and a youtube video, no connectors were loose and I'm under the impression that the problem is software related.

I may try to take another look, but reverse engineering without proper cables or debugging environment is notoriously hard, and out of my expertise :/

I'm gravitating towards Anker cams, they have nice reviews and I had good experience with their other products

Ph that sucks. Just steer away from their eufy ones they ahd some nasty security problems awhile ago.

Must've missed that. It's hard to come by any cloud connected product that's adequately protected. I'm happy with Apple's Homekit Secure Video enabled ones, at least my footage stays at my home

Oh yeah that is quite nice
