Great recorder for the price

Bought this unit to replace another recorder that has stopped working. Adjusting the camera's brightness, contrast, etc. was a great feature that my previous recorder didn't have. Setup was easy. Good recorder for the price.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Update available

Replaces obsolete QSee dvr

Qsee has just been disconnected from the dashcam and connected to this device. The software was a breeze even for someone like me. Not good at computers. No lags with a router and other things. I'm so glad I found them, I have 3 systems to replace and they will all be ANNKE8.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Great product suitable for security and surveillance systems

Overall a great product if you don't want to get too technical. the whole thing took 5 minutes. I used pre-connected cameras. The only thing I couldn't get was that it didn't allow playback and also said no video was recorded. I haven't used the app but when I get the bridge for my router bad update verification.

Pros
  • High marks from testers for support and durability
Cons
  • Negative impression

Great unit but suitable for CCTV kits

The unit works well but the quick start guide needs improvement. First, the manual is so small that it is very difficult to read. Second, the screenshots are blurry. Third, I went to the support site, but the manual for the device I bought wasn't even there. They use a number of different model numbers, but I couldn't find the model on the device I purchased.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Packed with options but easy to set up and use. Good picture quality.

It was a replacement for another famous brand that failed. It was very easy to set up and navigate. It loads with options and seems pretty reliable! One thing I want to simplify is navigating recorded content. But they all seem to be in the same technological place in this area. I will order again and recommend to a friend.

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • weak

Excellent customer service

Excellent customer service. You send an email during the day and the next day you get a reply waiting for you. This is very valuable as the instruction manual could have been better. The only complaint would be that the power adapters sometimes stop working, but they can easily be found online for around $10. Night vision is good, but you can add an IR illuminator to make it even better. Overall solid 4 stars.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Suitable

Its suitability for use as DVR online streaming is questionable

DVR recording function is good, you may need to play around with settings to get what you want. But using an app that doesn't update enough and accidentally stopped streaming once (need to restart device) makes it unreliable when you're not home because I could have been robbed during that downtime. Otherwise no problems, does what it should, let's see how long it lasts

Pros
  • Easy setup
Cons
  • Nothing here

Early days - not given up yet - and now updated

Updated review below: First review - I bought this to replace a DVR that was blown out by lightning. Tried to install last week. The biggest issue I had was getting all the settings correct so it starts recording (I bought one with 1TB of storage) and sends notifications to my iPhone. After downloading the software from their website a few times, I think I finally have the latest version. However, this does not match the screenshots in the support guides. For example, different terminology and…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Not the best
