shortlisted one will perfectly solve your problem.
cheaper one majorly face quality issues.
4 channel means you can pair 4 individual Cameras to one viewing device and watch.
since it is a wireless device, this capability allow 4 cameras without need of DVR.
I see in some forums that cloud subscription is needed for live feed outside the wifi network. Could you please tell How to check if it is needed for this model
I would suggest you to look at TP-Link's offerings too. One of the thing you got to consider while buying stuff today is the user interface (software), scalability and the overall ecosystem. At least I don't like to have multiple apps to manage multiple products!
First thing first, which area do you require CCTV for? With a 4 channel CCTV system you can connect up to 4 cameras to an NVR or DVR.While you can operate only 1 camera with 1 channel system.For e.g. you can consider the difference between a single SIM and a dual SIM mobile phone.
Bro, it entirely depends on your security requirements.I would advice you to choose an option that allows for future expansion ( think of RAM expansion).Suppose you install a 4 channel DVR, but if you need to add even 1 more CCTV cameras in the future, you will have to purchase a new DVR (8 channel).
If you only require a wireless security system, you won't require a DVR but first determine your requirements.
wifi ones are unreliable ... my 4 wifi cameras in dustbin .
get proper physical / wired CCTV setup for peace of mind .
Which model you used as wifi camera? And what was the problem
Use Hikvision Ezviz C8C Outdoor camera. Works like a charm. Even has flashlight, full color night vision and 360 maneuverability from app. Has 18 months warranty. Personally I am fully satisfied with the service.
Outdoor cams are great but nothing is indestructible, you should provide as much protection as you can from direct rain and sunlight.
Thanks for your suggestion.
I'm going to place it in shade only.No direct sunlight or rain
How's this model ?
Philips is superior to this.
Wireless me kya option hai.. i need 4camera to watch in tv with app.. aisa koi hai kya.. op ka link me jo hai usme 4 camera hai kya? Btw i have one mi camera but its not outdoor and 2nd can watch in mobile only..
If you're looking to monitor multiple areas, a 4-channel system would be better. However, if you only need to monitor one specific area, a 1-channel system would suffice. So, it depends on your specific needs and the areas you want to cover.
