Very nice! I actually have a 4K Lorex NVR kit I purchased last year. I specifically chose the set I have now because of the color night vision and ability to (which most POE camears don't) record audio. I see Swann has taken it a step further by including two-way audio. With that said, I have to give a thumbs down to pretty much all of the POE NVR systems when it comes to software. Although you said it nicely, the apps all suck! Nest, Ring and all the rest are light years ahead of these companies when it comes ease of usability for apps. The ultimate system would have the at minimum the following: -Accurate motion detection with zones -Great hardware -Great software -POE -Two-way audio Like you I have a combination: -POE system for continuous recording -Ring doorbell -Several Wyzecams Some day one of these companies will get it right. Until then I'll stick with my mashup!

Yes. Most wired systems’ apps are not user friendly and needs some testing and studying to make it to work properly. There are some features that they need to add. I have to check out Lorex cameras in the future...so that I can do a comparison between this and Reolink.

I have just purchased a 4K system and I am testing it today (Sunday 15 March). I am impressed so far with a 4k dome camera placed under the garage eaves. The video clarity is amazing, even though the images of passing cars, people, etc., jerk a little, it's not as bad as the Concord Security system video that comes from their 4K camera. Images in their video jerk badly, freeze a lot and disappear from the screen, which makes it hard to view live video. I had the Concord for about 3 weeks and ended up with the NVR recorder failing to show live video on one channel and then a few days later some other channels stopped displaying live video. I took the recorder back to store and even the store staff couldn't set it to work. So, they exchanged for another recorder. Doing it home, reconnected it to cameras and immediately checked it. I found the second recorder to be worse than the first, the images on screen were jerking badly and freezing for several seconds then, all of sudden the images simply disappeared. I decided enough is enough, I took a video shot of the jerking and disappearing images seen on the monitor screen with my mobile camera and then disconnected everything to return it back to store (back and forth - home to store - 11 kilometers away, I lost count on how much fuel and time I wasted). After showing the mobile video and my disappointment of paying a lot of money for something that keeps freezing the video frames, I told them to let me try the Swann 4K and see if it has the same jerky video like the Concord. They agreed, so here I am now with the Swann NVR connected and running with only one camera (I will place other cameras and operate them later). To my amazement the video clarity is perfect, the swaying tree branches and bushes are a fraction jerky but freezing of video is zero (Hope it stays that way), and if it does do what I'm expecting from this Swann products, I will write a good review. However, for Concord system, if you want to lose your hair over it, go ahead and buy it. But if you want to keep your mane like that of a Gelada monkey, then avoid this brand, as from the stress I've had, I wouldn't recommend it. I would like to know what mobile App to use for Swann. Thanks.

⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of the most important things nobody has mentioned is the extremely low 15 FPS this camera puts out. According to the sample 4K video samples provided here on this KZitem channel I was finally able to determine it is 15 fps which is super low if you are new to IP cameras.( this fps is the same as Lorex ) - I purchased another 4K Swann camera about 2 years ago ( no audio was available on cameras at that time ) - the camera does 20 fps, and it choppy with any fast action. Other than that, it's laser sharp. I'd even say it's sharper than this camera. It's disappointing that Swann has decreased the fps to 15 down from 20. When you look at Swann's 1080p cameras ( 5 megapixel) at 30 fps and compare movement to the 4K @20fps, it's very disappointing, and going down to 15 fps, it's just terrible, unless the person is not moving. Swann conveniently has zero info about the fps on this camera, I've looked for a good 20 mins, even looking at their online manuals. I finally found it by looking at the fps of the sample 4K videos provided here. Do some Googling, nobody has the fps rating anywhere. No online vendors, no reviews. There you have it. Seems adding the audio means dropping the framerate of these cameras so that they can still tranfer fast enough data at 4K. Watch some Swann 1080p 5 mp videos, you'll be amazed how razor sharp they are, and motion is very smooth.
@LifeHackster

I did mention and I actually said that I will get comments on this about the 15 fps and Swann has it posted on their website -> www.swann.com/us/swnvk-885804b2fb It is not on the camera specs but on the NVR - playback speed "Frame Rate up to 15fps @ 4K"

I have their 1080p DVR with PIR system and I have been pretty pleased with it. I have been wanting to see a good video clarity test with the 4k system and was happy you had a clip for that. Not sure if it is the same, but my DVR system can be accessed with the old school IE plugin if you go to the DVR's IP address. That will allow me to change nearly all of the DVR settings from my PC. Not ideal, but something to check out. Their apps on both the phone and PC are the weak link in my opinion.

Magnificent review! I had actually bought a POE camera system , prior to buying the wifi based devices , but returned the unopened product as I did not see myself installing or paying someone a high priced installation amount; Hence, I bought my Ring devices, nest and BlinkXT. Sure, there are one downside to them, but I can live with that. Btw, if I were to buy such NVR POE system, I would buy them to have them record 24/7 recording , not motion based. What is he length of day it'd record if it was set to non stop recording???

I bought a system and installed 4 of the cameras, and left the remaining in the original box in the house. Yesterday I installed the other two cameras and they worked great - for three hours. Even though it was a warm sunny day with low humidity, moisture formed on the INSIDE of both the lenses soon after it got dark and the view is totally blurred. The moisture is still there a day later and after contacting Swann and going through all kinds of hoops with them they finally agreed the cameras were faulty. However since it has been more than 12 months they will not replace or repair them even though they were not used at all until now. Since Swann claims the cameras are IP66 rated (waterproof) that means they were flawed with internal moisture which was there before the date of purchase, because they clouded up internally within the first 3 hours of use as the lens cooled off after sunset. We will file a Fraud Claim with the state Attorney General as they obviously weren't IP66 rated cameras as Swann claimed. These cameras were quite expensive and one of the reason I purchased them was due to the IP66 rating, which obviously was a lie.

Thank you! I’m still learning about my new SWANN NVR (upgraded from a SWANN DVR system) Trying to get used to the different options and settings for the system (I wish there was a “disable alerts” button in the phone app such as my eufy 2K doorbell has for stopping the endless notifications while I’m washing the car in the driveway) I also want to use the time settings to stop sending me “detection” notifications during the times I have set to not record motion etc. I think SWANN still need to improve the “new customers experience” as the “out of the box” settings can be challenging to understand. They do have a lot of videos but then you need to try searching specific settings. And they DO need to send a snapshot of what caused the detection alert as I’m tired of seeing nothing that caused it and then having to dig down in the app (after refreshing the recording list with a swipe down) to try find footage. Will check more of your videos 😃

I am in the market for a security system, but the A/C power here in Japan is 100 volt/60 Hz. I also noticed during your setup the time zones showed U.S. and Canada. Is Japan or Tokyo provided as options? Thanks in advance for your response.

I have a question about exporting videos from the NVR. My current system which is a Swann Poe security system is about 3 years old. Early on when I would try to export videos, my two options were the original h264 or Avi. I was needing to upload to KZitem so it had to be an Avi since KZitem does not support uploading h. 264 files. Every single time I would export to Avi, the audio was nothing but static. I recall contacting Swann and they gave me some kind of response that I can't remember exactly but basically nothing they could do about that. I'm looking at buying this system and I want to make sure that when I export to either AVI or MP4 that the audio actually exports properly. Can you tell me if that is the case?

You could read the license plate all the way back and motion didn't smear or 'pixelate'. Colors and a few other things seemed strange but it seems like it would be much better if you actually wanted to use the footage to identify someone.

I know the review is couple of years old but felt like reaching out. I am seeing many negative reviews about the quality of the 4k cams NHD-885msb and NHD-887msb specifically around condensation and dropping connection. In addition, the Swann Security app also is getting negative reviews. Appreciate any updates on the NVR 8580 with NHD 887msb and Swann Security app. Thanks

You can setup swann settings to ignore certain areas so they don't false alarm.

You might need to call Swann... especially if you forgot your password.

Always great videos Lifehackster! Please mute your audio when saying, "okay Google" in future videos because you just activated my Google home and phone. When you mute the audio, you could put the words on screen so people know you're saying the activation word. Many tech channels do this because most of their viewers have smart speakers nearby EDIT: Im also curious what is the max distance Ethernet cable you can use if you need more than 60ft?

Thanks for the advice and I will do that from now on. With the ethernet, it is 100 meters or 300+ feet.

Thanks for the informative review! Just a couple of quick questions on the camera speaker, how loud is the siren and how clear is the human voice coming out of the speaker?

Do you leave the Spotlight "Light Level" Intensity at 100% percent on all cameras? Did you need to reduce the intensity to avoid 'over exposure' on the video?

It is 100% all the time..it is not that bright to cause overexposure.

Geez at 15:25 when the car comes into the picture, the sound made me think a tank was rolling in. Lol By the way LifeHackster, I like what you’ve done with the intro and (extro?) end of the video. Very pro. :-) Also great review! I’m still considering the Arlo Ultra, but am hoping the child issues with the new solution will soon be ironed out. Also proper local recording. If a wired system would be an option though, this video would be very convincing.

I noticed that they audio or the mic from the cameras picks up sounds pretty good. The footage of me in my front door, I have to lower the volume down in post because it was loud.

Thanks for the great review. If you wanted to store the footage locally on my NAS would you still need to get the NVR?

What would you recommend for a security setup I just bought a home trying find the best bang for my buck. Mainly outside cameras

Wired setup NVR is the most reliable and dependable setup but Ring security light cameras and doorbell (wired) comes in close second.

I have two ring cameras and pay $30 a year each for cloud. I can get as many units for 100. Was thinking of therefore getting stick up cams but feel reluctant as reolink or Swann won’t ever need subscription. What is your suggestion?

If you already have ring cameras..you can just stick with them.. they are pretty good in motion detection...

LifeHackster the night shots seem poor on the first version of the stick up cams though

is it possible, instead of the system sending a substream screen capture to dropbox, make it send a mainstream photo instead?
@LifeHackster

I haven’t tested the drop box option but I know it is a picture that it will send but I don’t know what quality...at least though it should be 1080p pic.

Lifehackster! Great video, thank you! Do you know if it is possible to stream the footage to the cloud or to some other offsite backup, in real time?
