Pros & Cons

Bushnell CelluCORE 20 Solar Cellular Trail Camera (Detachable Solar, Dual-SIM)

Pros

  • Detachable solar panel on a cable lets you mount the panel in the sun and the camera in the shade
  • Easily 6+ months of runtime once the solar keeps the internal battery topped
  • Dual-SIM AT&T/Verizon auto-connect from a brand people already trust for optics
  • Reliable, clean picture quality day and night
  • No-contract plans at $9.99 and $14.99/mo

Cons

  • Only 20MP and 1080p — resolution lags the 36–40MP rivals
  • Trigger speed is mid-pack, not a fast-action cam
  • Low-glow flash, so a faint glow is visible at night

Spypoint Flex-M Cellular Trail Camera (Dual-SIM LTE)

Pros

  • Only major brand with a genuinely free plan — 100 photos a month at no cost, forever
  • Dual-SIM auto-carrier picks the best network so you're not locked to one tower
  • Buck Tracker AI filters by species so your feed isn't 400 squirrel photos
  • GPS location tagging built in for theft recovery and stand placement
  • 28MP stills look sharp for a mid-priced cell cam

Cons

  • AA battery life is weak — plan on the LIT-22 pack or a solar setup
  • Video tops out at 720p, behind newer rivals
  • Free tier fills up fast on a busy trail; you'll likely upgrade a plan

Our Verdicts

Bushnell CelluCORE 20 Solar Cellular Trail Camera (Detachable Solar, Dual-SIM)

The detachable-solar trick is the real reason to buy: you can chase the sun without moving the camera. A dependable, low-maintenance cell cam if you don't need headline megapixels.

Spypoint Flex-M Cellular Trail Camera (Dual-SIM LTE)

The smart value entry into cellular: the free 100-photo plan lets you try cell scouting with zero recurring cost. Just buy the rechargeable pack or solar — the AA appetite is the real catch.
