Hanwah Techwin’s (formerly Samsung) SmartCam HD Pro has advanced features for keeping an eye on your home, including 128 degree ultra-wide angle security coverage, 1080p full HD live video streaming, advanced motion detection AND two-way talk so you can check in on your kids/pets anytime of the day!
I have used security cameras in the past that send you lots of annoying notifications and the apps can be confusing to use. This camera is very simple and user friendly. It does what you need it to do – nothing more, nothing less. It can be used for home security, baby monitoring and/or pet monitoring.
The wide-angle lets me view my front door and windows all in one shot. I wanted this camera, not just for security, but specially for my pets. When we go on vacation, I usually have my mom stay at the house or have my neighbor watch them for me. I have been known to call home just to speak to my animals.
Call me crazy, I don’t care. If I’m going to be gone for a long time, I like to call and let my babies (err..pets) hear my voice. And yes, they do talk back! The built-in microphone & speaker lets you talk (and listen) through your phone to anyone in your house by pushing a button.
To get started, download the free Samsung SmartCam app for Android or iOS, available on the App Store® and Google Play®, to your mobile device and the set up wizard helps you begin viewing your camera in a matter of minutes.
The green LED indicator at the top of the camera shows network connection status but can be disabled if preferred. There’s even in-built lullabies to play for your little one when used as a baby monitor.
You can adjust the speaker and microphone for sensitivity, there’s a night vision feature that you can turn on or off as needed, and there’s also an optional wide dynamic range (WDR) feature to fix the exposure so it’s not too light or too dark.
I don’t need 24/7 recording so I really like the motion activate recording. You can record directly to a microSD card (sold separately) so there’s no need to pay a monthly fee for monitoring. The motion and audio detection send notifications to my phone and watch.
When motion is detected it records a 30-second clip. If the motion continues, the recording continues in 30-second intervals. It stops recording when the motion stops. This is a short clip I caught of my cat and dog playing.
The retail price for the SmartCam HD Pro is $209, but you can purchase one online for about $150. Please note that there is a newer, slightly different version of this camera.

a camera would go great with our security system!!!
We don’t currently have any type of security system. We’ve been wanting to DIY one, but just haven’t gotten around to it. This would be a great start!
I don’t have a security system but we’ve literally been hunting for a year on a good one! My husband works odd shifts and I am uneasy many times, will be checking this one out for sure!
We have had some breakins in our area, we have been looking for something. But I love your use to talk to the pets!
I live in a condo building and my neighbor just set something like this at her place. I have been thinking of installing a security system, so winning this would be perfect for us !
I would love to win! It would be the bee’s knees. ?With our micro-preemie getting so close to coming home, having something like this would be wonderful to help us have some peace of mind!.?
Great tool for monitoring your children, house (while you’re away) or pets (also, while you’re away). Video monitoring has become the norm in home security, and, if you value your home from intruders, this would be ideal. This would also be great for parents of young children, while they’re doing house work while the kids are playing or napping.
I have been wanting to get something like this.
I don’t have one, but we have been looking into options!
I would like to win because I have 2 dogs and 3 cats and when I get home from work I can never tell who made the mess in the house. I also like that there is a night vision because at certain times of the year we have bears around at night.
Your kitty seems very interested in the whole project! This is a great giveaway. It would be nice to have some extra peace of mind about breakins. Thanks for sharing the post.
I’d love to win this. My current system can be annoying.
This is absolutely wonderful! While we don’t have kids at home anymore .. we have five pets. The dogs always go with us .. but I’d love to spy on the kitty cats while we’re away. Maybe I could finally solve the mystery of who keeps knocking over the treat container every darn time. No one’s admitted to it yet!
We don’t currently have a security system, but we have been looking at some options. I like the built-in microphone & speaker feature.
I would love a home security system! This one sounds great and easy to use. Thank you!
We don’t have a home security system so this would be great to have when we are away from home. I love that it will record once motion is detected!
We need this. we have had a few really bad neighborhood issues and I think it is time that we have a smart cam installed in our home. I will be entering. This one looks pretty amazing!
I don’t have a security system, but would like to own one to watch my cats when I am away from home
This would be awesome to have while away on a trip or even just for the day. As a paranoid momma, I’d even like to have it to check on my son in his room. Every time I interrupt work at my computer to go check on him, he sees me and thinks I’m there to play. LOL
I’d love to win this for my sister’s diner. Their current system is woefully inadequate. I like that it’s 1080p so the picture will be clear.
I would love to have a great security camera like this in my home. I love that they have a motion detection sensor setting.
I just bought my first condo and I really need a home security system!
I don’t have a security system, but I would actually love this for my mom. Her home was broken in to a few years ago and the person who did it just got release from prison. This would give her some peace of mind.
I do not have a security system in my home! I would love one so that my daughter and I would feel more safe. We had a few guys come banging on our door after midnight about a week ago. It was so scary! I have been sleeping with all of the lights on. People can be so mean!
We have a security system but this one seems easy to use and I wouldn’t mind having something like this. Thank for the opportunity to win.
