Compare HOSAFE 4G LTE, solar WiFi and plug-in WiFi cameras by network, power source, recording mode, cellular data, storage and best use case. Start with the connection available at your property, then choose the recording style that fits how you want to monitor it.
Start with your location
Choose by connection first
The most important decision is not megapixels. It is whether the camera location has WiFi and reliable power.
4G LTE Solar Cameras
Best for remote areas where the camera needs cellular internet and solar charging without relying on a nearby router or outlet.
Compare 4G models →Solar WiFi Cameras
Best when your property already has 2.4GHz WiFi coverage but the installation point does not have a convenient power outlet.
Compare solar WiFi models →Plug-in WiFi Cameras
Best for locations with dependable WiFi and power when longer recording periods or continuous 24/7 recording matter most.

Important: Cellular data is the internet connection used by 4G cameras. SD card and cloud storage are recording-storage options. They are separate services. Availability, included data periods and app plan terms can vary by model and region; check the linked product page before purchase.
Cellular data and video storage are not the same thing
This distinction matters most when comparing 4G cameras.
Cellular Data
A 4G camera uses cellular data to connect the camera to the internet when WiFi is not available. A data plan keeps remote live view, alerts and app communication online.
Example: “360-day data included” describes the 4G internet connection, not the amount of time video is stored.Video Storage
Storage determines where recorded video clips are saved. HOSAFE models may support a microSD card, optional cloud storage, or both depending on the model.
Example: “64GB SD included” describes local video storage. It does not replace a cellular data plan on a 4G camera.Match the camera to the property
The same camera is not ideal for every location. Use the installation environment to narrow the list.
Farm & Ranch
Start with S90-4G1Y, YT15-4GD or S50 4G when WiFi does not reach gates, barns, livestock areas or equipment yards.
View Farm & Ranch Guide →Remote Gate or Cabin
S90-4G1Y is a strong starting point when cellular connectivity and a longer included-data period are more important than continuous recording.
View S90-4G1Y →Higher-Risk Remote Area
YT15-4GD is the better starting point when AOV 24/7 recording matters at a remote location without WiFi.

S52 Solar WiFi provides PTZ viewing and included local storage when the installation area is within 2.4GHz WiFi range.

CL31 4-Pack is designed for multiple WiFi-covered outdoor zones such as entrances, garage areas and backyard coverage.
View CL31 4-Pack →24/7 Powered WiFi Location
HX2PT1-5 is the simpler choice when the property has both WiFi and continuous power and you want 24/7 recording.
View HX2PT1-5 →Still deciding? Use this 3-step rule.
No usable WiFi at the mounting point? Start with 4G LTE. Reliable WiFi available? Start with WiFi cameras.
No outlet nearby? Choose solar + battery. Reliable outlet available? A plug-in model is better suited to continuous recording.
For motion-triggered monitoring, solar battery models fit well. For continuous monitoring, choose an AOV or plug-in 24/7 model.
HOSAFE camera comparison questions
What is the main difference between HOSAFE 4G and WiFi cameras?
4G cameras use a cellular network and are designed for locations where WiFi is unavailable or unreliable. WiFi cameras connect to a local router and do not require a cellular data plan.
Do HOSAFE 4G cameras need a cellular data plan?
Yes. A 4G camera needs active cellular data to stay connected to the internet. Some HOSAFE models include a trial period, 360 days of data or one year of data. Check the individual product page for the exact included-data terms.
Is cloud storage the same as a 4G data plan?
No. Cellular data provides the internet connection for a 4G camera. Cloud storage saves recorded video online. A camera may use local microSD storage instead of cloud storage, but a 4G camera still needs cellular data to remain connected.
Which HOSAFE camera is best for a location without WiFi or power?
Start with a 4G LTE solar model. S50, S52, S90, YT10 and YT02 are event-recording options, while YT15 AOV is designed for users who need a 24/7-style AOV recording option in a remote area.
Which HOSAFE camera is better for continuous 24/7 recording?
For a remote location without WiFi, compare the YT15 AOV 4G model. For a location with stable WiFi and power, the HX2PT1-5 plug-in WiFi model supports continuous 24/7 recording.
Which HOSAFE camera is best if I already have WiFi but no outdoor outlet?
A solar WiFi model is usually the best fit. The S52 Solar WiFi PTZ camera is a strong single-camera option, while the CL31 4-Pack is better suited to several WiFi-covered outdoor zones around a home.
