There's no backup power. Without the MicroUSB plugged in

The Netatmo Welcome successfully implements facial recognition in a consumer product for the first time. It has cleverly customizable notifications based around that feature and the specs to keep up with the competition as a connected camera
In practice, it doesn't keep up with the competition as a webcam or a security cam. The camera is slow at everything. The live feed lags, the notifications are delayed, and it takes awhile to learn faces
Netatmo still needs work, but it breaks new ground with facial recognition and shows enough prowess with that feature to be worth a look for anyone interested in cutting edge camera tech...
At £199, the Welcome is relatively expensive for an indoor camera. But unlike the new Nest Cam IQ, it doesn't require a subscription. The facial recognition isn't 100 percent accurate (neither is the IQ's) but at least the app lets you configure exactly w...

Beautiful design, clever facial recognition technology, customisable individual profiles, less intrusive than competitors, smart and customisable notifications, no monthly fees, good picture and sound quality
No cloud backup, delay between event and showing in feed, no pan or zoom capability, facial recognition takes time to teach in order to gain accuracy and can falter, power restricts positioning
The Netatmo Welcome is among the best smarthome cameras we have had the pleasure of spying on us. It has a beautiful design that integrates well into the home, but it's the facial recognition technology that really won us over. It's main letdown is...
Although the IP camera market is rapidly growing, the Netatmo Welcome sets itself apart from others with its attractive design, ingenious facial-recognition technology and easy-to-use app.At £200, the Netatmo Welcome is considerably pricier than Google's...
