  Cameras are fine…but the mihome app is still terrible!! Unless these use a different app.
  The only reason I don't use mine.
  As a value proposition though these are great! so have a + from me

    These use the Yi Home app. Unsure if the newer Yi Tech cameras work with Mi Home. I know the older 'Xiaoyi' ones do.

  Is there any monthly or yearly fee for cloud storage?

  These changed a few months ago as I think they sold it to another company and rebranded Kami. Before the change they would record continuously to SD card and automatically overwrite. They will still record continuously, but you can only go back 24 hours max unless you pay for a subscription. They work fine as a baby monitor with two way audio.

  I haven't tried flashing with custom firmware.

    Kami is Yi's new brand. They're still the same company.

    Run custom firmware and you won't.

    Homework for anyone concerned.

    VLAN, subnet, firewall

    The "phone home" issue isn't limited to this product or China and won't go away ever.
    Better inform and educate rather than spread fear IMHO
