Review on πŸ“Ή ANNKE 8 Channel DVR with 1TB Hard Drive, Supports 4K Analog & 6MP IP Cameras, H.265+ Hybrid 5-in-1 Security Video Recorder for Home Surveillance CCTV System by Russell Roberson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ok but very outdated.

I like that this DVR supports both old-school and IP cameras. Sounds really good though. The software is really old. Chrome, Safari or Edge are not supported. IE only on Windows, which will be retired in 2022. Although there are cloud storage settings, they no longer work. According to tech support (who was quick to respond and as helpful as possible) the security systems in OneDrive, Google and Dropbox have changed and the dashcam is no longer able to connect. There are no options to save via FTP or other vendor independent options. There are no updates for this DVR. Pictures and videos can only be saved on the DVR, a second hard disk is not supported. It was probably a pretty decent device 10 years ago, but it's quite difficult now.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Concise instructions
