We’ve all been there. You get a notification from your cellular trail camera, your heart races, and you open the app—only to find a picture of swaying grass or a squirrel running across a log. Again.

For years, cellular cameras have been incredible tools for observation, but they have also been "dumb" devices. They upload everything they see, wasting your data plan and cluttering your gallery. It’s time for your camera to get smarter.

GardePro is proud to unveil the X66 Pro Max. This is not just an upgrade; it is a groundbreaking AI trail camera that combines On-Device AI Species Recognition with stunning 2.8K video. It doesn’t just record wildlife; it understands what it sees.

A Camera That Thinks: The Next-Gen AI Trail Camera

The core of the X66 Pro Max is a powerful new processor capable of Edge Computing. Unlike other brands that rely on slow cloud servers to process images, the X66 Pro Max analyzes every photo and video locally on the device in real-time.

This means faster recognition, better privacy security, and the ability to filter images before they are ever sent to your phone, making it the most efficient AI-powered cellular camera we have ever built.

Smart Capture: Stop Paying for "Empty" Photos

Data costs are the biggest concern for cellular camera users. Why pay to upload photos of wind-blown branches?

With the new Smart Capture feature, you are in total control. You can configure the X66 Pro Max to only upload specific animals. For example, you can set the camera to ignore raccoons and birds, but instantly transmit images when a Buck, Bear, or Turkey is detected.

  • Reduce Data Waste: Significantly reduce cellular data usage by filtering out non-target activity.
  • Focus on What Matters: Get notified only when it counts.

Instant Organization with AI Tags (Beta)

Managing thousands of photos can be a chore. The X66 Pro Max automates this process by applying AI Tags to every capture.

The camera is designed to distinguish between 8 distinct categories: Buck, Doe, Bear, Turkey, Coyote, Wild Boar, Human, and Vehicle. As this is a Beta feature, the system is continuously learning to improve its precision.

Want to see activity trends for does in your area? Simply filter your gallery by the "Doe" tag in the GardePro app to see the results instantly.

See Every Detail: 2.8K Ultra HD Video at 30fps

Intelligence needs clarity. While standard 1080p cameras can miss critical details like antler points or skin conditions, the X66 Pro Max records in 2.8K Ultra HD (1620P) at a smooth 30fps.

This higher frame rate ensures that fast-moving wildlife—like a running buck or a flying turkey—is captured with fluid motion and reduced blur, providing the clearest view offered by any 4G LTE trail camera in our lineup.

The Best Part? Zero Subscription Fees for AI

This is where the X66 Pro Max truly stands apart from the competition. Many brands charge an extra monthly fee to unlock "Smart Tagging" or "Advanced Filtering."

At GardePro, we believe you shouldn't rent your hardware’s features.

As long as you have an active cellular data plan for the camera, all AI features are 100% free. No hidden costs. No premium tiers required.

FAQ about X66 Pro Max

Q1: What is AI Species Recognition?

AI Species Recognition is the intelligent engine powering the X66 Pro Max. It uses on-device AI models to automatically identify animals in photos and videos and apply tags. Unlike other systems, recognition is processed locally on the camera—not in the cloud—ensuring fast response times and data privacy.

Q2: Which animals can the X66 Pro Max identify?

Currently, the AI supports 8 distinct categories:

  • Buck, Doe, Bear, Turkey
  • Coyote, Wild Boar
  • Human, Vehicle

More species may be added in future firmware updates.

Q3: How does Smart Capture save data?

Smart Capture allows you to choose which animals trigger an upload. By transmitting only the species you select (e.g., only "Bucks"), you significantly reduce cellular data usage while ensuring you never miss an important capture. Non-target images are still saved to the SD card.

Q4: Is the AI recognition 100% accurate?

The AI Species Recognition is currently released as a Beta feature. While it performs well in most scenarios, accuracy can vary depending on lighting, camera angle, distance, and background complexity. We are continuously improving the AI models to increase accuracy over time.

Q5: What if the camera identifies the wrong animal?

User feedback helps us improve. If a tag is incorrect, you can manually change or remove it in the GardePro app or web gallery. These corrections help optimize the AI performance for future updates.

Q6: Do I need a subscription for AI features?

No. AI Tags and Smart Capture do not require any additional subscription fees. As long as your camera has an active data plan, these features are included at no extra cost.
