I have been looking for a FLIR ( infrared camera ) for a while and most units are very expensive. While this unit is sub $300USD it works decently enough for what it is. I feel that it is slightly overpriced for the quality of the unit. The focus ring is crude and while it works it is difficult to get a clear picture. The software is easy to install and use, All n all I would recommend this unit to someone looking for a compact unit for their android phone or android tablet.

I have a professional Flir thermal camera. It cost several thousand dollars. So, I'm probably somewhat spoiled, yet I know what I would like this to do. It can sort of do it. It's good for verification of something that you already suspect. It's not so good for scanning a whole area since the field of view is very narrow and the resolution is still somewhat low, although better than anything else in this price range. If the resolution were doubled (4x the pixels), it might be more usable for doing things like scanning rooms for leaks, etc. I don't regret the purchase, though. It's better than one of those laser thermal detectors by a lot. You can save images, which is nice. In addition to further resolution increases, a hybrid thermal-RGB (regular color) image would be nice, or they can do something like Flir does with the outlining of features to make it easier to understand what you are looking at. At low resolutions, that can be difficult. With a very high res thermal image, it's not necessary. The Flir at this price range has a lower res, but it does have that feature. I do wonder if it is a better purchase. Overall, I have mixed feelings and I hope that in 2 years or so, I can upgrade to something more useful. It is a quality product and for someone new to thermal, they will probably be quite happy.Read full review

I am impressed that product like that is available today (3/2016) at reasonable cost. It offers ordinary people conduct research at home, teach kids, learn about home insulation efficiency, vehicle thermal waste and much more. I wish that a year or two from today, the camera will have more resolution pixels, better focusing, more accurate temperature measurement and lower price. I wish that down the road, we shall have cameras capable to see other invisible things. UV light. Gasses, pollution.

This is new photography toy camera (Seek Compact 206 x 156 ) with some useful application: search in the dark the souses of the heat radiation (up to 100 meters you can see the something big as human size body). Also some home staff inspection. The lens is not fixed and need to be focused - but no any mark on the lens to set the infinity focus for example (I think, they just save the money this way - avoiding each unit calibration on infinity focus). The App you can use with this product - is only what they supplied - I did not find the 3-ed party apps for this product (I think, this is a proprietary issues - this product used the micro-bolometer from Raytheon - and probably obligated not to share some units parameters with 3-ed party). The app work good on Samsung J5 phone (2015 version). The constant auto ranging camera switch is annoying (Because it produce some sound click in the camera constantly, about 0.3 - 0.5 Hz frequency). But apps had just a basic futures and switching photo/video is not easy with fat fingers. The photos size is 1280x960 so the apps just make x6 digital resizing. Attached the reduced 3 time samples.

Excellent thermal camera for the price. If you are looking for a thermal camera to inspect insulation on a house or find problems with circuits, or just take weird pictures of your pets, this is it. The resolution is low (it's a thermal camera after all), but the focus is adjustable and it is sensitive enough to make out details. There are multiple color schemes and display modes, including a very neat "display everything within a temperature range in color", useful for highlighting living things or cold/hot spots. Android application does not abuse permissions and does not require registration to use.
