Probe diameter decides where it goes; cable stiffness decides if it arrives · review
An 8 mm (0.31 in) probe on 5 m (16 ft) of semi-rigid cable that holds the shape you bend into it, IP67-rated for an hour of immersion, feeding an iOS or Android phone.
What the figures leave us with The sensible entry point. Semi-rigid cable and a real IP rating are the two things that matter, and both are here.
An endoscope is a probe diameter and a cable behavior. Everything else is display.
An 8 mm (0.31 in) probe with a 2.0 MP HD sensor, stated as entering tight spaces easily. Compatibility with iOS 9+ and Android 4.2+ through the UseePlus app, plug and play. A 5 m (16 ft) semi-rigid snake cable that holds its shape while bending freely, with an IP67 rating allowing one hour of continuous immersion. Adjustable LED lighting and a 360°-rotatable lens.
Diameter sets the smallest opening the probe enters. Cable stiffness sets whether it arrives where you pointed it. A soft cable in a drain follows the drain; a semi-rigid one can be bent into a hook and held against the wall of a pipe to look at one spot.
Resolution matters far less than either, because almost everything inspected is unlit and the limiting factor is the LED ring rather than the sensor.
Nothing, until the phone is low on battery or the app updates. A dedicated screen — the Yamokizy and Ralcam in this hub — removes both dependencies, and adds the cost of a screen.

The cable holds the shape you bend into it instead of falling straight. That is what lets the head be steered around a corner and held there. A soft cable can only be pushed, and it goes wherever the pipe sends it.
Vorth states IP67 for the cable and probe, allowing one hour of continuous immersion. That is the right part to rate — the head is what goes into standing water.
It needs a genuine 8 mm (0.31 in) opening plus clearance to steer. For smaller access, the 6.2 mm (0.24 in) Ralcam in this hub is the one that fits.

7 mm (0.28 in) cable, 30 m (98 ft) with meter marks · self-leveling image · 9-inch IPS · DVR 32 GB
A drain inspection camera on 30 m (98 ft) of meter-marked cable, with a self-leveling image that stays upright however the head rotates, recording to a 32 GB card.
Best for: Surveying a drain run properly — with a distance, an orientation and a recording rather than an impression.
1920P · semi-rigid IP67 cable · adapters for phones and tablets
A phone endoscope sold as a set with the adapters for different phone and tablet connectors, on a semi-rigid IP67 cable.
Best for: A household set where several different phones and tablets need to work with the same camera.
6.2 mm (0.24 in) probe · 210° articulating head · 5-inch 1280 × 720 · over-90 °C warning
The thinnest probe here at 6.2 mm (0.24 in), on a head that articulates through 210° — so the camera can look back along the cavity it entered rather than only forwards.
Best for: Engine bays, machinery and cavities where the thing you need to see is beside the hole, not beyond it.
