Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The MAXDONE Solar Wildlife Camera 4K 64MP sits fifth in this guide and is the cheapest camera in it at £49.99. It is a 64MP stills, 4K video trail camera with a solar panel, a built-in rechargeable battery, Bluetooth and its own WiFi for app control, and a 32GB SD card already fitted. It carries a 4.6 out of 5 rating from 725 ratings.
Its finding is the one that runs through this whole group: the battery figure. This camera advertises 2,000mAh. The other MAXDONE listing in the guide, the PH970S, advertises 6,000mAh on the same 64MP and 32GB headline specs, and sells at £52.98 or £58.99 depending on which of its two listings you open. Three MAXDONE cameras, the same resolution and storage claims, and battery numbers differing threefold. Two smaller details on this page do not line up either: the bullet point calls 0.1 seconds a fast trigger, while the specification table files the same 0.1 seconds under maximum shutter speed, and the room type is given as Office for a camera the rest of the listing describes as outdoor. Everything on this page comes from the camera's own Amazon listing, not from any test of our own.
