I remember when wireless was becoming a big thing and people were all like, "Oh, you don't want a WIRED connection, that's so old!" And I remember thinking, but you still need a wire to power the thing, so it's not truly wireless, is it? So yeah, wireless cameras made no real sense to me, especially when they are capable of PoE. You need to run a wire anyway to power it, why not make it a cable that powers it AND handles the data?

This looks like a great system for folks that just want a security camera system. When I spent some time in retail, we sold a lot of those to folks that simply wanted to set things up and have them run. (Not, of course, the hip thrusters of [the home automation system that shall not be named]) The fact that you can just connect it up to a monitor and don't even need to use the app is a plus for such folks. And, of course, it has a lot of updated features from the ones I used to sell back when Palm Pilots roamed the Earth. I, of course, would set this up to play the Dennis Nedry "Ah, ah, ah" voice clip, but I suspect most of the targeted consumers for this product and nearly all burglars wouldn't get that. You did a very good explanation of why wired cameras are almost always better than wireless for imaging and features. The only downside is running the cables, which can be loads of fun depending on how your home or business is constructed. (I remember one case where a cable run needed to go through 16 inches of doubled-up cinder block. Fun times.) Aside: When I saw the Amber Heard bit, my mind immediately went to what kind of Batman-esque sound effect panels would be "appropriate" for such a thing. I can't unthink those and I can't even explain my guffawing to my spouse and daughter. Ah well, if they're not used to such things by now, they haven't been paying attention (which might just be the best course of action.) One more time, I have to thank you for the "What's wrong with it?" section. I really appreciate your thoroughness, especially in this section. Thanks again for a great review.

Was sounding really good until the no RTSP, no ONVIF bit. So you are locked to using their cameras and viewing from there app or HDMI. Based on how closed this is, I am guessing that the POE is locked down to the point that the POE only works between the camera and the NVR rather than allowing you to plug a camera into any POE port on your home network? This will mean that you will need to have a bunch of wires all going to this box. For comparison, my current 4K system is made by Dahua, can run eight ONVIF 4K cameras from any manufacturer, that just need to be connected to the home network. So if I want to bury the NVR at the bottom of a cupboard I just need to supply a single ethernet and power lead and I am sorted. For viewing, I just use a web browser on the PC or an Android TV box running a CCTV viewer app, and for viewing remotely I just VPN into the home network and view as if I am local using a CCTV app. My cameras also have a card in them so even if the NVR is found I still have the most recent recordings stored on them. In summary, no matter how decent this seems, I would never recommend that anyone buys a closed system. This setup was so close to being right.

I still maintain the best, most economical, and practical solution for most people is indoor cameras on your windows/sills facing outward. You can have 24/7 recording, backed up to SD card or a hub/server, for a lot cheaper than some of these external cameras. The shortcoming of lack of night vision can be overcome with LED or infrared floodlights, either stuck to the interior side of the window or mounted externally.

I'm not sure how much of a threat these jammers deauthers really are, I would be interested in buying one and testing it on the channel, but I might get my KZitem account banned if I do. 😤

@@AmazingOrange87 you dont need to drill extra holes for wired cameras that wireless ones dont need anyway , I have not drilled any holes to put in my system ! But i get your point ,however i was more baffled as to how easy it is to disable wifi cameras and people think they are secure

@@paulhibbert I think at the end of the day it often boils down to what is easy for the burglar. Cameras, wired or wireless and alarm systems represent risk and potentially getting caught versus homes with no security at all. Its very hard to make a home truly burglar proof but enough obstacles will put most of them off and the really clever ones are more likely to go for bigger fish.

I'm concerned about you doing major renovations. I do hope you meant "having major renovations done"! When I had work done last year I had Ethernet cables put in everywhere.
