[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So.. .a long story made as short as possible. This is my husband's and I first ever camera for ho e security either outdoor or indoor. 12 Channel 4K DVR with 1 TB HDD and 4 x 4K Wired Light Cameras is the system that we set up. It is most definitely not as hard as we made it to set up. The fact is him and I can't even make a ham sandwich together LoL. Anyways it's a pretty cool system. Almost easy to install (depending on who you have help you), very easy to use after installation, and quite cool. I mostly use it to watch the wildlife in my yard at night or daytime and it's quite easy....actually I spend far too much time wating what these cameras show me. And I know it's probably not relevant but my favorite things to watch on the dvr is this Coopers Hawk I named Nancy and these two Great Horned Owls (no names for them!) Who are natural enemies. I love the detail and colors of the videos from the dvr I get to watch of what goes on and is happening on my property. And it's so easy to access the cameras feed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this surveillance camera set to replace my old battery operated cameras . Picture quality is great! It’s not match to having the battery operated camera quality . One camera can capture a large area so I was able to drop downs from 9 cameras to 4 cameras and still capture the same amount of area. Installation can be a pain . But once you have one camera down they all go pretty quick . My suggestion would be to plan out where you are going to run all your cables first and than attack the installation. The app is great , once you play around with it for a few days you’ll have it down . The spotlight leather is also great , not a lot of cameras have and actual spot light built in. Don’t think about it too much just buy the system it’s well worth it .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Night Owl 4k Security Cameras are pretty amazing. We love the clarity and that we are able to use thru wifi directly to our television as well as on our phones. They also track people as they come into view so you are able to monitor quickly. The dvr also has a 1 tb hard drive so it holds a ton of video for you to keep on hand just in case anything needs to be watched. As I said before such a great device and I would definitely recommend to all in need of a great Surveillance system!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had these Night Owl 12 Channel 4K DVR with 1TB HDD and 4 x 4K Wired Light Cameras professionally installed for me so they were done right and as soon as they were up, I was instantly impressed with how easy the app was to set up and use (even for me) - I have an iPhone and the set up was very easy. The cameras are also great, I love the very bright spotlights, which add extra security. The cameras also have a very wide view so I can see so much more than with my previous cameras. I am purchasing another set, which will cover my entire property.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The setup for the night will 4k system is relatively easy. It comes with a generous length of coax for connecting the cameras. My favorite feature is the spot light built in for night time. I live in a very rural area, so it gets quite dark. Having the extra light is nice to have. The cameras themselves put out a great image that I can view on our tv or my phone. This is a great system to gain added security around your property. I plan on adding more cameras that extend to my shop on the back of the property.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The night owl security camera system and dvr is an excellent choice in a home security system. Easy setup and installation. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a home security system. Perfect for any novice

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I get this system here because of the reviews I was hearing about them . And I am very happy with them . Itnwas very easy to set up and the cameras have the clearest pictures and the spotlight is so bright by the second night we knew who or what was messing around our yard . It wasnt the monsters my kids thought it was . The spotlight blinded the whole little family of racoons . That was making so much noise . The pictures are so clear . This is so easy to set and Like that alarms are.sent straight to my phone and I can see what is happening at my home when Im not there

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These focus cameras are excellent and I love them. They are easy to install and program in the application.I like the quality of the graphics, the two-way audio and the night vision. I recommend this product one hundred percent. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest opinion.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my very first security camera system, so keep that in mind. I don't know how much of these things are common in other products. I really like these cameras. Out of the box, everything is labeled very nicely. Wires have tags that tell you where they plug into, and the install directions are explained very clearly. So, first impressions are inviting. I plugged everything in my room just to check if everything worked, and to check recorder box. Once it all checked out, I was able to install the cameras outside. The wires were all 60 feet long which for my house was plenty. They sell extended wires on their site which is cool. Once I was able to really settle everything in place, I was able to get a good understanding of the software on both the box/monitor and the app on my phone. The UI on the monitor was bland, but very straight forward. That's fine because I care more about the ease of use than I do on how pretty it looks. The menus were straight forward and very intuitive to navigate. The resolution is 4k in the sense that the resolution size is 4k, but the actual quality of the image is just OK. It's a security camera... I'm not filming a blockbuster on it. Facial recognition is awesome, and at least the clarity is great. You can play with exposure and contrast, but they don't drastically change for the better. These cameras are leagues far above average securities cameras though so don't think that they're terrible or anything. The app is very good, and the notifications are great because you can change the sensitivity of what wakes up the camera. Which is great, because you can make it pretty relaxed or else you'll get notified whenever a leaf passes in view. I really do like the cameras, and I really do like my decision to get them.

Recently purchased one of these new 4K systems. I had a 5 year old 1080P system and thought I would upgrade. Will return as basic features that did exist no longer do. Expected it to be better quality video and add and enhance features from the older application. Not the case. Although the video recording quality seems good, the system is now missing basic features such as being able to record audio. My old system had 2 audio recording channels connected directly to audio cameras. I had an audio camera in the front and rear of my home. New system has no audio recording or playback although sales description have wireless cameras states recording of audio. does not make sense. System only seems to be able to Export video based on "Events". Old system I could set a start and end time for exporting. Sometimes small movements are not part of an Event and the recording of sound would also not be an event but you may want to export with the sound just for timeframe of sound. Have given videos to the police multiple times. Cannot give up that feature. Only reason for "Continuous" recording a channel would be to be able to export a range of time and for sound. Strange that an "Upgrade" would result in less basic features than previous very old systems. Not sure who designs these and decides what features. Time to go elsewhere
