ANNKE Wireless Security Camera System 4TB Hard Drive, 16CH 4K WiFi NVR Kit, 12Pcs 2K Home Surveillance Cams for Indoor/Outdoor, 2-Way Audio, Night Vision, Weatherproof, Motion Detection, Metal Housing

I work in video forensics and have worked with hundreds of different DVR systems. This system was extremely easy to set up. Plug the cameras in and turn on the main unit. That's about it. "Wireless" cameras are great in that you do not need to string an ethernet cable from the DVR to each camera. This is big time saver. But remember that these cameras still require power. So, wherever you place these cameras, there needs to be an power outlet. Not a huge deal, but does limit where you can place the cameras. The DVR interface is easy to use. While it lacks some bells and whistles of some more expensive units, this has been excellent for my home and has worked great so far! Continuous recording and motion recording are available. Camera range is OK and highly depends on environmental conditions. On a clear, nice day, these cameras work great and the signal strength is good. I did notice that once when it was very foggy and misty, that 2 of the cameras located furthest from the DVR lost their signal for a time being. I live in the mountains and always hope that my DVR records wildlife moving around the house. While this DVR does have "Intelligent" detection, it seems to be geared toward human detection and even provided an option for such. It would be nice if this had motion detection technology that weeded out 'non heat' sources from detection, such as blowing leaves, or even a spider web in the camera's view. But I knew before purchase that this particular DVR did not have that ability. Overall, very satisfied so far with this system. You want a system that is easy to set up and require very little to no maintenance after setup. This DVR satisfies those requirements.

Surprisingly easy and intuitive setup. The cameras connect to the main unit wirelessly. The quality of the camera is good - picture is clear. When installing the camera you just have to supply power so it has to be fairly close to the power outlet. I was a bit frustrated by the App on the IPhone. At first couldn't get it to work - the system was trying to connect via BT but I don't think that those cameras have that connection ability. I finally figured that I had to use the LAN option to connect through the network. Then the APP found the cameras quickly.

Price was on point for what I received. Great picture for a small monitor, tablet or cell phone. A bit pixelated on larger TVs. The app works great and I have had no issues. Setup was a simple plug and play. I like the fact that it has sound and audio on each camera. I would definitely recommend for someone who wants a home security monitoring system at an affordable price.

Well worth the money, fairly easy set up, great video. The only problem I have is it doesn't have left and right adjustment on the cameras.

I really regret buying this camera system. The setup was frustrating from the start — the cameras kept disconnecting from WiFi even though my signal is strong. The app is slow and buggy, and the live view freezes constantly. The 2-way audio sounds muffled, and sometimes it doesn’t work at all. The video quality isn’t anywhere near 4K as advertised, and playback skips or lags like crazy. Even worse, the system randomly reboots itself, which means I lose footage when I actually need it. For the price, I expected reliability, but this setup has been nothing but headaches. Definitely wouldn’t recommend.

Once I was able to connect, everything works extremely well. I will add that it is imperative that you must connect using a TV, not a PC. Technical support and Customer service were amazing throughout. To be honest, top notch. 10/10. Very thorough. When I connected the cameras, one camera did not work, they replaced right away. The Audio and video is very good.

I purchased the ANNKE wireless camera system for my warehouse. They system is very easy to set up, very plug & play type setup which I like very much, however when I got to the last camera during the setup it was not registering. The light did not come on as the others did and I tried everything I could before contacting customer service. They were very helpful. Since I was at home when I contacted them and not at the warehouse, they did follow ups to allow me to contact them back when I was at the warehouse and we tried every troubleshooting methods. We realized that it was merely a defective camera which no way affected the use of the other cameras and the system. I did order a replacement camera set with the help of customer service and when I received the new one, again simple plug & play. It registered immediately and connected to the system. Overall the system is amazing. I love receiving notifications on my phone from the app. The video quality is great. The attached screenshot is from the cameras I have set up. Two are outdoors and the 3 are inside with no lights on, so you can definitely see that the nigh vision is superb. I have the system set up for continuous recording for little over a month now and only about 9% of the local storage space has been used, so the 2TB was a good option for me. But I might get the additional cloud storage option though in the future. I will be adding more cameras soon and may purchase another additional set for another property. With the great quality of the system and the top notch customer service assistance I received, I am very pleased with this purchase so much that I've already recommended to some people. For the price, service and quality of the product, you can't beat this, A must buy!!

Everything came in the box well packed. Easy setup and app seems pretty easy to navigate. Signal strength is failry good as some devices are over 100ft away from an AP. Quality of the picture is hard to tell on a cell phone but seem pretty clear. Motion detection seem to work decently but haven't had time to play with the full customization of it.
