4 Channel 4 Camera Defender 4K - 1st Generation Legacy Review

I wanted a surveillance system with wired cameras, high resolution and night vision so I wouldn't have to pay a monthly fee. This system is amazing and the price was very reasonable for what you get. The 4K resolution delivers excellent high-definition detail even in the dark. The HDD DVR box records continuous footage from all 4 cameras for about a month which I can easily access via my phone or tablet. Even when I'm on the go, the app allows me to track in real-time or back in time to view…

**UPDATE We have returned the system. It took several hours to get replies to emails. I received an email saying I would be receiving another email "soon" with instructions on how to return the camera. I asked if they would send a replacement camera. Four hours later I received no reply, no letter to return the defective camera. I called. I received a message that all agents are busy. There is no way to keep. Called again and found a real estate agent. I told them that I wasn't very happy that…

At $429 for a security system with 8 4K cameras, you can't beat this price. The cameras themselves are quite oddly shaped and their field of view isn't the widest at around 80 degrees compared to many others at around 90+, but the video quality on them is phenomenal. I've had absolutely no problems using their app for live view, playing back files from days or weeks ago, and even fine-tuning the cameras. However, I do recommend you have some sort of viewing source that can display 4k to see how

I upgraded a 21000 series Defender and was happy with it. I planned to replace my current cameras (in important locations) with newer (higher resolution) ones and then use the old cameras in new, less important locations. Never before has an "upgrade" felt more like a downgrade. I was about to get it back. Then I had a change or a heart and started exchanging cameras. Then I thought about returning it AGAIN. Here are my complaints: - Doesn't work with my old windows program (DVR client) or any…

I have switched from this company's 1080 cameras to these 4K cameras and I regret parting with my 1080 cameras. The field of view is much smaller at 4K, so I'm limited to 65-70% of the 1080 FOV. Defender's solution was to set the resolution to 1080, which at first seems counterintuitive on 4K cameras. I still don't see as wide a field as I did with my 1080 cameras, but it's gotten better. Now that I've done that, there are pink lines running down the sides of the image. I reported this to…
