Security Camera System Wired, H.265+ 8CH Surveillance DVR with 1TB Hard Drive and 4 x 1080p HD IP66 Outdoor CCTV Cameras, 100ft Night Vision, Smart Playback, Motion Alerts, Remote Access

I recently purchased the Security Camera System Wired with a 1TB hard drive and 4 x 1080p HD IP66 outdoor CCTV cameras, and I’m thoroughly impressed by the value it offers, especially considering the budget-friendly price point.Installation: Setting up the system was fairly straightforward. The cameras and DVR were easy to connect, and the cables were long enough to reach all necessary spots around my property. The installation guide provided clear instructions, making the process smoother. The cameras themselves are solidly built and feature an IP66 rating, meaning they're fully weatherproof and can withstand the elements, which is a key consideration for outdoor use.Video Quality: The 1080p HD video quality is excellent for the price. The image is sharp and clear, even at night, thanks to the impressive 100ft night vision capability. During the day, the colors are vibrant and detailed, and even at night, the infrared night vision allows for crisp and clear footage of my yard. For most home surveillance needs, this camera system delivers more than enough detail to identify people and objects.Storage and Playback: The included 1TB hard drive offers a decent amount of storage for video footage. The system uses H.265+ compression, which helps save space while maintaining high-quality video recordings. The Smart Playback feature is especially useful—allowing me to quickly search for and review important events, so I don’t have to watch hours of footage.Motion Detection and Alerts: The motion detection is fairly accurate, sending alerts to my phone when any movement is detected. The system allows customization of the detection zones, which is a nice touch to avoid false alarms from non-relevant motion like trees swaying in the wind.Overall Performance: The performance has been flawless so far. The camera system connects easily to my phone for remote viewing, and the DVR setup is reliable. It has been working 24/7 without any glitches. The build quality is excellent for a budget model, and the cameras have held up well in all types of weather so far.Final Verdict: For anyone on a budget looking for reliable surveillance, this system is a fantastic option. It provides excellent value with good video quality, solid build, and useful features like smart playback and motion detection. While it may not have the advanced features of higher-end models, it’s more than sufficient for everyday home security needs.Pros:Great value for the priceExcellent 1080p video qualityReliable night vision (up to 100ft)Good motion detection and smart playback featuresEasy installation and setupWeatherproof IP66 camerasCons:Limited advanced features compared to higher-end modelsHard drive storage may fill up faster with continuous recording

I purchased the set of 8 cameras with the DVR.Now I was under the impression it was IR for night vision, but notice the first night it was not. It's night vision actually is 2 little lights that light the area so it can see the area. I wish I could turn off the light on the cameras, but there is no setting to do so.Just a note I thought I was getting 3Mp cameras (the 4 pack were 3Mp), but I guess the 8 pack was only 2Mp each. They are OK, the picture is nice and beggers can't be choosers.The BNC cables were long enough (roughly 60ft) to put up half the cameras. It's not bad, I prefer cables over WiFi any day.The DVR is pretty standard and has a few different view settings like cameras 1-4, 5-8 (if you got the 4 pack the DVR still supports upto 8 cameras), and all 8, and a 9th one that shows how much each camera is streaming.I like the fact it has a login feature.I haven't tried the network nor the app yet. But for the most part the 1 TB HDD is nice to save all 8 cameras. Also the USB plug in is nice to get videos on a flash drive.There is a lot for motion detection, but with bugs flying at the camera all night I wound up setting it sooo low that a nuclear bomb might not set it off, lol.It also came with a mouse. So that's a plus.*Update* Had an issue and was happy to find they were vert supportive and replaced more than what was wrong. Excellent customer after care. Also the network works well. I view it on my phone while away. Upgraded to 5 stars.

How can you say this cameras can be viewed remotely when they cannot. Voice and talk is also not working and the seller has confirmed that the cameras don’t come with an inbuilt voice. The only remote one can be able to see is if this cameras are connected on the same WiFi, same IP address and using same router. If you change your remote access of the phone to another WiFi or cellular data then they will not work. What is the point of buying a camera for security reasons to watch over your home while away but you cannot watch remotely because the cameras needs to be on the same WiFi and same IP address as that phone or table or anything connected to same WiFi. What is the point of buying a security camera just to watch it remotely when you are at home on the same WiFi? When the same cameras works with dvr and no internet. It’s just same as buying a normal camera with no live video then sit at home to watch it physically without using anything remotely. Even the alarms don’t sound, the notifications don’t do anything, the motion sensor doesn’t allow anything. This are just normal old school cameras connected to a dvr with no functionality. Don’t depend on this cameras for any type of monitoring, security, alerts, motion or help that you are looking for. They’re just same as the dummy decoy camera's one can put around the house for display. When you ask the seller about this they say they are working on the app to have all this updated in the coming months. The seller has advertised as all this fully functional but nothing and after talking to them they confirmed all this not available and apologized but they’re still selling that with the same advert.

If you don't want to invest a lot into a camera system, this is it. The menu and interface have a bit of a learning curve, but after you figure it our you're golden. Despite the price, these are actually some pretty good cameras, the quality was surprising and the night vision is incredible, not to mention the included 1tb hard drive which van hold months of footage.All in all, I would definitely recommend this if you want a cheaper security system, or if you are on the fence about purchasing a more expensive unit!

The the system the installation was easy but the internet setup was a bit complicated but still fun and easy enough setup
