They continue to be reliable with wait easy set up.
Bettery life is great with AA lithium batteries. I often get 2 yrs of use from a single set of batteries used prior to and through season which is about 5 months of use.
Update: I started having issues with some of the cameras, including my Bushnell WIFI. Turns out the Energizer Lithium batteries are going bad. I highly recommend an inexpensive battery tester and check every batter before putting it in the camera. Will save you lots of time trying to figure out what is wrong. Several of the batteries, bought via Amazon, are dead and show no voltage reading at all. All the while I thought it was the cameras it turned out to be batteries.
Update: I made adjustments, which included removing the ARD (anti reflective device) from over the flash which was suggested in the instructions and the night pictures were much better, but still not as good as the 8MB camera we have right beside this one. The night pictures are still very dark, and adjusting the sensitivity made it take WAY more pictures of waving trees during the day. I will have to again make some sensitivity adjustments to see if I can improve that. I am attaching another couple of photos of a fox. The first one is the 8MP camera, the second is the supposedly 16MP camera. The 8MP is much clearer. Not sure what to make of that.

Hope my review helps someone in making a decision on the purchase of Bushnell Trophy Cam HD Essential Trail Camera. Perhaps, Amazon Prime Day is approaching I will buy another one. I wish I knew that I can install this cameras myself. I had installed video survaillance cameras but, the problem was there was no way to install another camera that will be showing this area.

The nighttime video is clear, I haven't taken any stills with it.
Good video quality in daylight.
As other reviews have pointed out, the length of nighttime video recording is limited to 15 seconds - not ideal at all. The time is much longer in daylight.
The video sizes are 1280x720 or 640x360
The battery section of the camera is fiddly - you would be best to fit the batteries in from the outer edge (next to where the clasp is that closes the camera) and work inwards.
You can set the interval between shots down to 1 second.
If you use the camera to format your SD card you will get the Bushnell logo and other bits of stuff on the bottom of your pics/videos. Suggest you use your laptop to format the SD card.
It's fine for videos at night and I will continue to use it but it's not the camera I was hoping for.
Onto my other issue....
I also had no idea when I ordered this camera from the Amazon page that this item was being sent from a supplier in the USA. It did arrive at the allotted time, even with the Covid crisis. Delivered by Fedex and they notified of tracking.
However - there is a hidden charge - as with most imports you get additional charges - Import Duty. If you get the item by post the Royal Mail levies the charge. On this occasion it was delivered by Fedex and I have now received an additional £29.06 charge from them to be paid to them!!!! They call it an advancement fee. It's all very clear on the Fedex website (GB duty and tax).
I would suggest looking at ordering this camera or any other from a UK store in future.
EDIT -UPDATE
The night time LEDs have failed just over a year later. Waiting to hear if it's under warranty and what can be done but not holding my breath as I'm expecting to have to return to US at significant cost let alone the cost of reimporting it should they be able to do anything !
