XVIM 8CH 1080P Wired Security Camera System Outdoor with 1TB HDD: 8 HD 1920TVL Cameras, Night Vision, Motion Alert, Easy Remote Access - Complete Home Surveillance Solution Review

assembly was easy! attitude, nothing more. It doesn't work as described in the instructions! I didn't want to use a cloud server (and couldn't) so I set it up as an IP. After three days of configuring my modem and learning about port forwarding without the help of tech support or the manufacturer, I realized that the application is tuned to your modem's IP address, not the DVR's IP address should be. If I knew that, I could install and configure it in about four hours. But after all the time…

Don't bother with this system. Somehow I couldn't even get started without contacting their support team and it took forever for them to contact me. Then I couldn't put it together and drove myself crazy trying to figure out why. It turned out that the first cable I used to connect the camera to the TV was twisted. The second and third were fine, so we hooked up two cameras to the TV and started them up. Hooray! Night vision was great, motion detection was great. Left 24 hours to review…

I recently bought a home and wanted to upgrade my security system so I gave this device a try. Basically, the offer for 8 cameras and a 1 TB hard drive couldn't be better. I don't need wireless cameras because I think they can cause problems so I went with a wired device. And the cables are definitely a hassle, but they come with fairly long cords, which gave me a bit more freedom to do this. The DVR was also a tricky process, it works best with a wired ethernet connection so the initial setup…

Great product. I like the quality of this CCTV system. That is very clear. Easy setup, plug and play. There is no need to open a port on the router or use any kind of domain for internet/smartphone access. All-in-one system with pre-installed 1TB hard drive. Capacity can record up to 1 month with 8 1080P cameras. 1080p resolution was great. 4CH 1080P DVR can display videos clearly. 4pcs 1080P 2MP Wireless IP66 Waterproof Cameras with Auto IR-Cut Filter with 24 LEDs. The camera is indoor or…

The cameras are advertised as 1080p, 1920 TVL (1920x1080, 2 megapixels). As received, 1080N resolution (1080 x 960, 1 megapixel) is available for viewing/recording, or *half* of what is advertised. The body of the camera is described as metal, weatherproof IP66. I have cameras with plastic bodies that might not even survive a spitting contest. I paid just over $200 for this system at the end of May 2021, and at that price I'd rate it as a pretty good entry-level system with easy setup and use…

Having worked with security systems for a number of jobs, I knew what to expect from a cheap system. I expected: grainy picture, broken camera: clunky and hot hardware. Night Vision of a Blind Man. What I got is: super-clear license plate readings from passing cars, cameras that all worked out of the box, hardware that doesn't get hotter than a Playstation 2, and reasonable night vision that allows me to get clear to about 100 feet see. For the price, I expected a product that would allow me to
