Frienhund has been making reliable pet feeders for a few years now, and the 2K Camera 5G WiFi model is their most connected version yet. The headline feature here is the 2K camera with live streaming. It lets you check in on your cat or small dog while you’re at work or on a trip. You can see them eat, adjust the feeding schedule in real time via the app, and even talk through the built-in microphone. That two-way audio is handy for calming an anxious pet or just saying hello.

The 7-liter hopper holds enough dry food for a multi-day trip for most cats. You can program up to 15 meals per day with portion control, which is overkill for most pets but useful for strict dietary schedules. The 5G WiFi support means the video feed loads quickly and rarely buffers, even when you’re on cellular data. Setup takes about five minutes through the Frienhund app. The dispenser mechanism is quiet enough that it won’t startle your pet during a late-night feeding.

One honest limitation: the camera’s night vision is adequate but not exceptional. It works fine in low light, but details get a little soft in complete darkness. The plastic exterior feels sturdy enough for daily use, though it won’t survive a determined chewer. For the price, you get a solid camera feeder that does exactly what it promises without unnecessary complexity.
