SPYPOINT FLEX-M2 Solar Bundle

4.2

3 sources2 derived$100as of Aug 1

The SPYPOINT FLEX-M2 Solar Bundle is a lot of camera for the money: true Dual SIM technology, a 28-megapixel sensor, and 1080p video. Reviewers noted the reinforced shell, updated latch design, and a flush-mounted antenna for the solar panel. A preloaded SIM card and solar pack come in the box, so setup is quick. The camera includes 100 free photos monthly and access to the Insiders Club, but a Class 10 microSD card has to be bought separately. Hunters who want a cellular trail camera that works without caveats will be satisfied.

How they stack up

Bushnell Core S-4K No Glow Trail Camera

The Bushnell Core S-4K No Glow stands out for its exceptional 32-megapixel daytime resolution and 25-month battery life, but it trails behind the Spypoint Flex-M2 Solar Bundle in night video capabilities, which offers 15-second clips versus Bushnell's 14-second limit. Unlike the Tactacam Reveal Ultra, it lacks GPS tracking and cellular connectivity, making it less suitable for users needing remote monitoring features.

SPYPOINT FLEX-M2 Solar Bundle

The Spypoint Flex-M2 Solar Bundle provides the best cellular connectivity with dual SIM support and 28-megapixel resolution, outperforming the Tactacam Reveal Ultra in terms of reliability and data transmission. However, it's less versatile than the Moultrie Edge 3 in terms of setup and lacks the GPS tracking of the Tactacam Reveal X Gen 3.0.
