Review on πŸŽ₯ REVO America Ultra 16 Channel 2TB HDD IP NVR Video Surveillance System with 8 4MP IP Bullet Cameras - Remote Access via Smart Phone, Tablet, PC & MAC, Black (NVR) & White Cameras (RU162ABNDL-1) by Sean Bond

Revainrating 3 out of 5

No sound. good system

I bought the Revo RU42B4E-1T model. It included four 2-megapixel cameras, four CAT-5 Ethernet cables, and an NVR with a 1-terabyte hard drive. Revo is aware that only a 4-megapixel system can play audio, but they won't be updating their website. This is misleading. Advantages: The cameras are robust and very well made. The picture quality during the day is very good. The system is very easy to set up, laying the cables through the attic took most of the time. The hard drive is not too loud. The movement function is very sensitive. Motion and tampering can be configured to sound alarms. I have not yet set up the cloud or app function. Night vision is okay in low light, however there are dark spots in the backyard. Cons: Technical support is almost non-existent as the technicians are apathetic. manual is rubbish. I watched the installation video of another Reo/Link. The zoom function does not work at all. A terabyte of memory is too small for four cameras. I can squeeze out 6-7 days with my current settings. I couldn't use the copy function for some strange reason. This is a very good camera for beginners. I am very happy with the price I paid for it, which is much lower than the current price. Buy without fear of fraud. I'll upload pictures later.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Legacy model
