I've got one of these mate. Works off 5ghz, my reason for buying. Takes micro sd, runs off usb C cable. Picture quality is very good, no sub needed. We're cheaper than this befor though... Paul

Eufy are pretty good. Depends on your budget.

I have used a lot of cams. Started with battery powered Netgear Arlo, then moved to Eufy, now I have custom system using Amcrest cameras. My biggest gripe was not being hardwired and constantly letting the battery run out and not wanting to charge and replace every few months.

Look at Reolink and Eufy for black friday, they usually run good deals. Consider the solar panel upgrade if you aren't inclined to run ethernet or power to them.

Tapo sales at Amazon, which model do you suggest

I use Eufy and Tapo battery powered cameras with solar a panel the battery is always fully charged The Tapo i use is a TC82 kit very impressed £49.99 atm

The Eufy camera BC1C is very good for price

Reolink is a solid option. They have had regular promos since Black Friday for cameras (WiFi and PoE), Doorbell and NVRs. Remember to also buy a PoE switch.
No subscriptions, an easy to use mobile App - setup custom alerts for any motion, person, vehicle and Doorbell press

I've still not decided what to get , too difficult to choose 😭. Recently had someone banging on the window and front door in the middle of the night , messing about not sure , they appear to arrive in a car and sped off , it's a terraced house so what's the best solution and where to I stall.

Reolink 802a any good , would you get away with putting this in the uPVC door archway

 

[castleb36]

Reolink 800s are good and easy to install. I wouldn't recommend within a uPVC door frame, more through plastic cladding or brick work

 

[weimaraner95]

Got a 820a to try out will go thru the brick work above the door ,

Thinking of getting an additional cam
Not much difference in price
Either a REOLINK
823A is £115.19
Trackmix PoE is £112.63

Which would you recommend
