Our Verdict
The DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope is an excellent choice for a borescope camera. It has a 5-megapixel camera, as opposed to a standard endoscope camera which is 2 megapixel. It has a good camera and is compatible with android and iOS. It is Wifi enabled, so you can watch what the borescope is capturing through your smartphone or tablet using a WiFi connection. It has a good battery life with a 2600mAh battery. It has a good focal length and captures footage in high definition. It does not have a camera on the borescope itself, but even with that disadvantage, it is great on value for money.
Camera Resolution
Standard endoscopes and borescope offer a resolution of up to 720p, the higher models offer a resolution of up to 1080p. However, the DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope goes a step further and offers a resolution of up to 2592*1944, which is unseen in the borescopes in the same price range. This is possible because of two primary features, the 5-megapixel camera and the Cametele technology 2.0.
The five-megapixel camera allows the user to capture crystal clear crisp images and videos. The Cametele technology 2.0 takes care of the image distortion. Accompanied by the LEDs attached on the camera and the 16-inch focal distance, users are able to capture images and videos of high quality in all kinds of light conditions.
Even in the case of no light of insufficient light, the circles LEDs on the camera with brightness adjustment can provide sufficient lighting for the DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope. See the review of similar camera if you are looking for other options too.
Cable
Most endoscopes and borescopes offer a standard
.5 feet black cable. However, the DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope offers a yellow coloured semi-rigid cable with sturdy construction and snake-like flexibility.
They offer a cable length of 16.5 feet, which is the maximum length amongst standard endoscopes and borescopes. This allows the borescope to reach in places no other borescope and endoscope can reach. The camera is attached at the end of the cable. The cable has the unique quality of being able to bend but also maintain its shape, without compromising on the image quality. It is waterproof and has an IP67 rating.
Phone Compatibility
The DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope is compatible with almost all android phones, iPhones, iPads, tablets, Samsung devices, personal computers and laptops. All you need to do is download the mobile application for the DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope into your smart device, turn on the Wifi network of the borescope and turn on the WiFi of your device.

You can also change the settings and customize the DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope as per your needs on the application.
Build Quality
The DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescopeis quite a sturdy product. It has the dimensions of 6.3 x 6.1 x 2 inches which is a bit bigger than a standard borescope and endoscope.
It is heavier in weight as well, at nearly 14 ounces, as opposed to the standard eight to nine ounces. But a few ounces of weight and a few inches in dimensions are small issues compared to the features it provides. We have already spoken about the camera resolution and image quality. The camera diameter is 8.5mm, which is the same as any other standard borescope.
The cable is different from other borescopes. Firstly it is 16.5 feet in length, whereas most borescopes offer only ten to twelve feet of cable. The maximum that we have seen, besides the DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope, is fifteen meters. It is also yellow in colour, which adds to the aesthetic value. It is a semi-rigid snake cable, which is highly useful for borescopes.
There are 6 LEDs circled around the camera, whose brightness can be adjusted. The body of the borescope has a smooth finish with buttons for zoom, power button, capturing feed, etc. this can also be done via the mobile application, but it is good to have the option.
The DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope comes with three additional attachments, a hook attachment, a magnetic attachment and a mirror attachment for increased functionality.
The DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope is resistant to dust and has a waterproof rating of IP67, which means that the borescope can be used up to 1 metre underwater for thirty minutes. Another underwater camera that you can buy is Limink.
The DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope has a battery of 2600mAh which is higher than most borescopes. But there are also endoscopes which offer a battery of over 3300 mAh. While the battery is good to be used for three to five hours, using it on the highest camera resolution can drain the battery faster.
For a 5MP camera with High definition technology, a higher battery power would have been much more suitable. The battery can be charged using a USB cord to any laptop, personal computer or even a power source using an adaptor. Just make sure the USB port is compatible with that of the borescope.
While the individual features on the build quality might seem standard, it is to be noted that the DEPSTECH Upgrade 5.0MP HD WiFi Borescope provides all of that in addition to the superior image quality, high resolution and 5-megapixel camera.
