When it comes to choosing a trail camera, two popular options from GardePro are the Cellular Trail Camera X50 and the Wifi Trail Camera E8. Let's take a closer look at the features and benefits of each to see which one comes out on top.
What's the difference between Cellular Trail Camera and Wifi Trail Camera?
A cellular trail camera and a WiFi trail camera are both used to remotely monitor wildlife or outdoor activities, but they operate in different ways.
- A cellular trail camera uses a cellular network to transmit photos or videos captured by the camera to a remote location, such as your smartphone or computer. These cameras require a cellular plan to function and are ideal for monitoring areas without WiFi or other internet connections.
- The WiFi trail camera, on the flip side, connects using Bluetooth and sends data through WiFi, allowing you to access photos and videos directly via the Gardepro Mobile App. You can even modify the camera's settings without taking out the SD card.These cameras do not require a cellular plan, but they do need to be within range of a WiFi network to function properly.
