SANNCE PoE NVR 4K 8 Channel, 8MP CCTV Security Camera System Network Video Recorder Supports 8MP 5MP 3MP 1080P HD PoE Surveillance IP Camera, Human Detection No HDD

This CCTV has features I was looking for which are usually found in more expensive system like motion detection on selected areas and push notification to my phone. 1080P Cameras with a 1TB Hard Drive and remote viewing for $200.00 is a great deal. The only negative thing I found was the NVR didn't have a remote so your force to the mouse to change selected camera.The installation went pretty easy other than routing the cable in the attic in difficult to reach location. Being a Technician I was able to install the cameras in the optimal location and fished cable in the wall to my entertainment center. Anyone not mechanically incline should hire someone to run the wires if you don't wires showing or wall fished.The setup of the cameras is very straight forward, follow the on-screen setup wizard and your done in 10 minutes.Tips:The weather boot protecting the ethernet connection to the camera is about 7/8 wide which means you'll need a 7/8 bit or a hole saw to route the cable in the attic or wall unless the cable entry is more than 12 inches away from the camera.One of my cameras is 120Ft away from the NVR so I ran my own ethernet cable and removed the weather boot from the provided cable and placed it on my cable before installing the connector. Worked perfectly.The last tip is having a second person makes the installation much easier. But if your doing it alone have the app installed and use that to help you adjust the camera angle.

Zero modern browser support: Does not support current versions of Chrome, Firefox or Safari. You get a popup saying that for their site to work properly you need to time travel back to 2007 and run Windows XP with Netscape Navigator /s. See attached. Video playback is not possible via web browser.Zero firmware updates: Was hoping to find a firmware update published anywhere on the internet for this model (N44PBD1T) to add compatibility for modern browsers and clean up the GUI, but the only firmware available is the firmware it was manufactured with from 2018. This is an abandoned product. Expect Zero support and zero improvements.Installation Notes: If you're going to run cable for these, the included ones are worthless as you'd have to drill quarter sized holes in your house to fit the cable plug with the insulating caps through. Also once you've ran a line to where you want to mount the cameras, there is no logical way to handle cable management without it looking terrible courtesy of the insulated plugs and the optional power plugin combo. I myself grabbed a box of cat5e and did custom runs without ends to keep drilled holes small and then snipped the pre-made cables to steal the insulating caps and add them to the cables I made after they were ran.The mobile app I can't slam too hard. It's the same app for all their different models, so there will be some features listed that are not available to you because the hardware doesn't support it. Ugly design language and strange dialog box English translations aside the app is at least functional.With all the negativity listed above, I do at the end of the day have a functional PoE home security system. But I definitely got what I paid (or didn't pay) for. If I had to do this all over, I would have spent the extra money to get a properly supported and updated system. Live and learn.

I always read reviews, hardly ever wrote one, but this one is a must.I have a picture attached with my review, it is of my attic( there was a reason to have camera in attic, dont wana make extremely long comment), just look at this picture, now it is of night vision mode. Let me tell you my attic is pitch dark even in bright day light, and you cant see without light, but guess what, this screenshot that i attached is not taken at day time it is taken about 11 pm at night, i had attic lights off, so there was nothing but darkness, i meani wasnt able to see my hands. You can see literally everything in this camera. Night vision is best or i had never seen one like this before maybe every one is same but i am veeeeeeery impressed.But you may have different priorities so let me cover them as well.About camera block mode or motion sensor, they are extremely sensitive. I would say they will keep giving you notifications even if there is nothing especially if camera is outdoor. A small insect, fly, even dust particle or any smallest movement of anything will trigger motion detection so it is just not worthy if you are buying it thinking that you will only review motion detection segments when you have time, because you will get one every 2 minutes. So very poor performance on that end.It has great storage and very easy app and you can watch any day, anytime from your phone wherever you are, so i wont expect better performance there. It is great.Camera can move 180 degree but one camera was too hard to move and i am young guy still couldn't do it yet , and one is too loose that i am hoping it stays there and worried that a small wind will move it.Overall for price it is not bad, given that you need only one wire to camera and no extra power cable needed only ethernet provides the power as well, also wires are pretty long.Camera quality is very good.I just wish motion sensor was better, it makes me mad, but i am happy with my purchase.

worked as expected for about 5 years. Suddenly a software update push broke the device. I tried to fix it with no luck. After giving up on it, their customer service reached out to me and offered to send me a replacement free of charge. I’m currently waiting for the replacement to arrive and received my UPS tracking number right away. Thank you Phyllis from Sannce customer support for making it right.
