Xega 4G LTE Security Camera (No WiFi, SIM Card, Solar Powered) with 2K HD, PIR, Night Vision & Two-Way Talk
Product description
If your property doesn’t have reliable Wi‑Fi (or you’d rather avoid running cables), this Xega 4G LTE security camera is built for the “go anywhere” scenario. On paper, it’s a solar-powered outdoor camera that uses a SIM connection for notifications and remote viewing, which can be a big deal for farms, build sites, holiday homes, or any spot that’s genuinely off-grid.
It’s not perfect for every buyer, though. Because it’s a 4G cellular device, your monthly data choice matters, and the pan-and-tilt control is remote rather than fully “smart tracking”. Still, if you prioritise flexibility and weatherproof outdoor coverage, the feature set here is fairly convincing for the category.
The essentials
This Xega camera is designed to monitor outdoor areas without needing Wi‑Fi or an electrical feed to power it. Power comes from a built-in rechargeable battery supported by a high-efficiency solar panel, so it’s aimed at locations where you can place it once and let it run.
For sensing, it uses a PIR motion sensor to detect human movement and then trigger instant alerts through the Ubox app. For people activity, it also includes two-way audio (a microphone and speaker), so you can communicate with someone near the camera if you need to.
For visibility, you get 2K (3MP) Super HD daytime footage plus night vision with infrared LEDs. The camera is built to be adjustable too: it can pan 355° horizontally and tilt 90° vertically, letting you reposition the view from the app.
What you’ll notice in everyday use
The biggest day-to-day difference is how it connects. Since it’s a 4G LTE security camera with a SIM card, it doesn’t rely on your home broadband. That’s a practical advantage when the camera is far from the router, in outbuildings, or on sites where installing network wiring is a headache.
You should also consider how you’ll use the remote control. The camera supports pan-tilt control via the Ubox App, which can help you cover more of the area without physically moving the unit. However, it doesn’t support automatic tracking of moving objects, so if you’re expecting it to “follow” people on its own, you may find it a bit limited.
A small but important point: the solar panel is supported by a 10,000mAh rechargeable battery, and the description suggests about 4 hours of direct sunlight can power it for a whole day. That may work well for many UK outdoor placements, but if your chosen spot gets very little sun (or is shaded most of the time), you’ll want to think ahead.
Key features that matter for outdoor security
There are a few features here that are aimed directly at common outdoor security needs:
- Weather resistance: it’s rated IP66, so it’s made for outdoor conditions such as rain or snow.
- Night visibility: it includes upgraded infrared LEDs for use even in complete darkness, with “HD colour night vision” mentioned in the description.
- Audio: two-way talk lets you speak to someone near the camera.
- Alerts: instant notifications are sent when human movement is detected via the Ubox app.
On storage, “military-level cloud storage” is mentioned, along with a claim about reduced worry over data leakage if the camera is stolen or destroyed. The exact terms aren’t provided here, so it’s worth checking what “cloud storage” includes before committing.

Compatibility & requirements
You’ll need a working 4G data setup to use it long-term. The camera includes a prepaid EIOTCLUB SIM card with 300 MB data for test use, but it still requires a monthly data plan for ongoing cellular coverage.
On the software side, the description points to remote viewing and alerts via the Ubox App. Compatibility details beyond that aren’t provided here, so if you’re buying for a specific phone ecosystem or app version, it’s wise to double-check in the product listing.
There’s also the practical placement requirement for solar charging. Aim for a location that gets enough direct sunlight to keep the battery topped up.
Pros and limitations to weigh up
Why it’s a strong fit on paper: - No Wi‑Fi required, with 4G LTE connectivity instead. - Solar + built-in battery reduces the need for mains power. - IP66 weatherproofing suits outdoor installs. - Two-way audio and PIR human movement alerts add more usefulness than “just recording”.
Where it can fall short: - It’s dependent on a monthly data plan, and the quality of service will depend on 4G coverage where you install it. - No automatic tracking of moving objects, so you may need to adjust the pan-tilt view manually. - Solar performance depends on consistent sunlight, in heavily shaded areas it may struggle.
Is it worth it?
This Xega 4G LTE solar security camera makes sense if you need outdoor coverage where Wi‑Fi and electrical power aren’t practical. It suits buyers looking for a self-contained approach: set it outdoors, rely on solar power, and manage alerts and camera angles through the Ubox App.
You may want to skip it if you expect fully automatic tracking, or if you’re not comfortable with the ongoing cost and setup that come with a monthly 4G data plan. It’s also less convincing if you’re planning to mount it in a spot with limited direct sunlight, because solar-only operation depends on charging conditions.
If you’re weighing alternatives, consider whether you’d rather use a wired or Wi‑Fi camera (which avoids cellular data) or whether the flexibility of “no Wi‑Fi, cellular instead” is exactly what you need for your location.
