ANNKEPoE CCTV Camera System Outdoor, 4x 5MP Wired IP C500 Cameras Compatible with Alexa, 100 ft Night Vision, IP67 Waterproof, 8CH NVR CCTV Recorder with 2TB HDD, H500

Great value system, enough storage for 21days + with 4 cameras recording, easy access through the Annke App, also works via desktop app on a compatible iMac, Mac Studio etcI’m not using the motion detection but it is very good when checked it out, also privacy masking is easy to setup if you need to

These are amazing!My last system was a DVR with the old standard recording with 960H cameras, so this is a really big step up.The quality of the cameras are excellent, and it is easy to set up. (The uploaded picture are through my phone camera so not very clear.) The finetuning controls for the colours etc. are great as you can see what works best for you in terms of saturation, contrast and more. At night the colour is ok provided you have lighting available to assist, but you can also get IR Illuminators to place next to the camera to help it.It has worked flawlessly in the few weeks we have had it. It helps protect our house from inside and out as the 4 cameras provided are clear enough for outdoors, whereas it being 8 channel has meant i can connect 4 more cameras to fit inside the house.It is easy to set up with the Annke application, or even other apps such as Hik-Connect as the protocol is similar. It is easy to control and playback from both the NVR and also from the mobile application.The pre-installed 2TB HDD is a perfect addition to this as it really does make it an All-in-One kit for people.There are settings such as motion detection that you can set up and email alerts etc. to really help secure your house.I can easily recommend this kit for the price!

I bought this on PrimeDay and was looking for the following features particularly- 5MP or greater- H265+ compression (reduces the disk usage)I would've liked the 4K version but they don't seem have H265+ compression.When installing the first hurdle was the camera and the waterproof connector - we've renovated the house and have routed the CAT5 cables through floors/walls. When trying to install I found that waterproof connector is too big to be hidden inside the dome camera base - spoke to Annke support and they weren't much help and suggested I leave the wire visible which leaves it vulnerable to be cut off.So upon further searching I found other manufacturers make specific 'back boxes' which provide a void to hide the cables - so I purchased a HikVision one which was ok but not a tight fit (will see if it is totally water tight) and this was about £16 so not cheap!Once the camera was setup I tried to configure the box and the manual is confusing - it refers to installation of various programs like SADPTool and GuardingExpert failing to fully explain the purpose of these. In all very confusing which applications you need to install/use - web gui, Android/IOS app, SADPTool, GuardingExpert etc.Also Chrome browser is not supported although the manual makes no mention of this.As to the features - there seem to many but once again the instructions are not clear on how to setup e.g. how to setup alerts on Android app based on movement - there are several steps that need to be done but not obvious.The picture quality from the 5MP dome camera seems to good and night time quality is also good although we have a permanent light that is on so no need to IR.This is my first NVR system so not sure how it compares with the other makes

Lost count of how many of these I have fitted, great picture fair price easy app to view cameras. will be buying many more

Purchased and fitted this system, was so easy. me and my wife had it fitted and operating in aprox. 4 hours. Lots of useful feature like privacy mask and being able to set the detection area, video quality is crystal clear even on 8x zoom when well lit, still ok at night just a little pixely on full zoom (but that is to be expected). My only slight gripe is the set up procedure isn't very intuitive, it works but a lot of double reading to understand exactly the procedure and its a shame the client can only be viewed correctly with IE on windows machines, aprt from that i'm very happy and impressed with the system.*UPDATE* Had an issue with the motion detection sending too many notifications, after customer services explained the limitations of the system I realised I had purchased the wrong system for my needs, customer services have given me a FULL refund for the system I bought and have even given me a discount on the PIR system to replace it. You will not get better customer service than that. Also the technical advise was given quickly and was very informative. I can not recommend this company highly enough 💯% 👍👍👍😁
