Spypoint Flex-M2

  • Mid-range
  • 4G / cellular
  • Low-glow

Spypoint's entry-level dual-SIM 4G camera, replacing the original Flex-M. It strips out the screen and built-in solar to keep the cost down, but keeps GPS location, over-the-air updates and Smart Send AI in the app.

What reviewers found

    Called it strong value for building a network of cellular cameras, with even night lighting, but flagged daytime blur, no screen, visible IR and the need to avoid certain power settings.
