ANNKE 8 Channel Outdoor Security CCTV Camera System, Smart Human & Vehicle Detection, 3K Lite DVR with 1TB Hard Drive and 4 x 1920TVL 2MP Home Security Cams, Dual-light with Color Night Vision, IP67

I purchased this system after looking at many different CCTV camera bundles, and I am very pleased with it.Arrived quickly, and everything just as described.I opened the case of the DVR unit and found a 1TB Toshiba hard drive fitted.Quality of all the items appears to be very good.The system is easy to assemble and I had no problems with the instruction booklet and CD provided.I tested the cameras / system before starting fitting and everything worked perfectly.On turning off lights the CCTV cameras instantly switched to night mode and the picture in my view is exceptional for the cost of this system.The DVR has option for up to 8 cameras so options to update if more needed etc.In terms of getting properly up and running - it has taken me 3 days to fit the system inside and out.Depending on where you want to put cameras I would say the cables provided should be suffice for most, ( My installation fitted to 4 bedroom detached property without any problems, and with cable to spare on all 4 runs. )The cable runs actually presented the biggest challenge as I wanted system to be neat and tidy and not seen.Thankfully my walls have internal cable ducts through which I could feed all of the video leads to where I wanted, but it was tricky!I also made my own external wall mounts onto which I fitted each camera.( *By doing this it allows the full rotation of cameras on the mounting cup spindle and also up /down elevation to place camera viewing angle exactly where needed.)I also fitted external weatherproof cable junction boxes to house the video cable connectors, to prevent any water getting in etc.Once fully up and running I am very impressed with the functionality of the system - easy to use and I have personally found no problems with it.I fitted the DVR unit by HDMI to a flat screen 24inch TV / Monitor and the picture is very clear.Playback equally clear and quite easy to use.Online: - Connecting to the Sannce web browser - I found this very straightforward - I am using Windows 10 home desktop and my laptop / pad - Login is secure and I can view my cameras without any problems - absolutely delighted with this feature.I haven't tried motion detect as I don't require this feature - I have set my system on record 24/7 and it will just overwrite data as required.Time will tell how this system fairs and how well external cameras stand up to the weather, but at this stage all in, I rate this system as 5 star for value, quality and functionality.

For reference I bought the 4 camera, 1TB kit.Ignore the Xmas decs mess lol.Has to ask my tradey neighbour to drill walls etc for me - took like half an hour. Fourth camera not decided where to use yet.See the pics - they work really well.Since install we have had frosts and torrential wind/rain. The cameras were not phased by this.The night vision is particularly impressive.Bit clunky software - there is probably a software update but as it works, I'm not bothered.Worked out of the box. Replaced the mouse with a better one but that's my preference.Had to turn off the 'need password everytime' as it's annoying with a long password. Turned off notifiactions also. If you don't you will have hundreds a day - like every car that goes past etc. For me that does not defeat the object as I'm nearly always around.The app works well too - can cycle through the cameras from wherever I may be out and about. It was easy to connect the app to my system too - follow the instructions and you will be ok.Playback, FF and rewind all work great - it's like having your own proffesional outfit at home. Has connections for 4 more cameras too. You can view single camera on screen, 2 cameras, 2+2 and so on also.I had tried a few wireless rubbish cameras - the facts are that yes - just ask a neighbour/mate etc to drill and fit the cameras, run and tack them for you - and it's done. You pay whatever you need to. It's a very easy job for a tradey/handyman etc. I have no ladders etc, but you can easily do it yourself if competent.I am so glad I chose this kit out of the 1.45 million on Amazon. I really am.I have a lot of PC equipment etc, so I am using the cameras on a 21" monitor and it's about the right size I would say.It arrives very quickly due to being from Amazon. It's packed superbly - really proffesional box and packaging to stop damage.If you want you can change the drive to a bigger capacity (it's simply SATA powered) - also if you buy the NO HDD option it's simple to put one in. The 1TB version is plenty to be honest - unless you want to keep stuff for weeks you don't need a bigger drive.If a disaster happens to them in a month or 2 I shall update the review but for now it's a firm 5*.
