Nice compact camera with built-in microphone-simple addition to existing NVR kit and works well, as expected.
I chose this camera to work in lowlight and have a good resolution. This is a very configurable camera for example you can schedule different shutter speeds for tme of day Allowing minimal IR Illumination so discrete and less insects attracted to lenses at night. Initially image was temperamental and half the Video capture Would block out solid green possibly the data rate issue writing to the ST card but dropping the resolution slightly has improved this so the camera is now stable. DC current draw is around 100 mA which is 50% better than most Cameras I have tried. I’ve taken around eight hours over three days to get this configured to suit my requirement as a standalone camera Recording video and audio In motion triggered events. For the money it’s not bad value Though will require more effort to get stable results than Consumer grade cameras
Purchased this as a spair camera in the adventuality that one of set will break eventually, as one did. Workes well good picture quality, even at night.
Worth the money. There is always a space for performance.
Nice camera and works great but no h264 only h265 and for some reason wont work with my hikvision nvr which is supposed to be h265 too
Bought several of these good quality cameras and I am very impressed. The quality of the picture both day and night is outstanding.
These come with full instructions via a handy app on how to install. The app allows you to monitor the footage and record. Aftersales service is great. So when buying this camera there is support.
Highly recommend these, however if you are looking for a pan and tilt function, these do not have that function, but yhey do sell cameras with that function. However that said the zoom on these are so good up can see individual blades of grass!
After using a NVR system (Swann) before I felt like it was time to have a bit more control over my CCTV. Purchasing Blueiris (well worth the money) and half a dozen Reolink 810a cameras I set to work securing my property. Things did not go well, it turned out the Reolink cameras were to blame, recorded images were either all grey screen or multicoloured. When watching live (no trigger) they were fine. These cameras were returned and replaced with Annke C800s, I’ve not looked back. Their quality if fantastic. No more grey/multi coloured screen, they just work, fantastic. Setting them up in BI is easy, being ONVIF cameras BI just finds them. Currently I have set BI to use the make of Hikvision (which the C800s are, ish). Model as *DS-2CDxxxx RTSP. Main stream as /Streaming/Channels/1, substream as /Streaming/Channels/2. They just work, great cameras for inside or out. Why people buy Reolink is beyond me, they’re just trouble.
Hi I bought a ANNKE C800 when there was a discount voucher offer just before Christmas, overall I paid about 50 for the camera. The one I bought actually turned out to be faulty, so I returned it for a refund, but I subsequently bought 2 more direct from ANNKE (they also had a similar offer) and I’m very happy with the picture quality.
I have one installed outside (the camera is weatherproof) and one inside, and I get a clear picture both day and night.
I’ve not been able to get the sensitivity right on the motion detection yet – the outdoor one seems to get triggered by rain and insects.
The camera also has a microphone, but I’ve not been able to get that working properly yet either.
Plug and play, Annke software is very good. Works nicely with Guarding Vision app. Only possible issue is the motion detection which did not seem to work too well but my cameras are recording 24/7 on SSD so not needed as yet.
La vision nocturne fonctionne trs bien, avec un faible niveau de bruit. Audio de bonne qualit.
Qualit globale trs bonne. Facile installer avec un support pour cacher les connecteurs.
Utilisation en mode PoE et le logiciel de surveillance BlueIris v5. Le dual stream fonctionne trs bien.
Well pleased with this picture amazing sound brilliant definitely recommend and the price is very good for the quality
Cameras are excellent. Would suggest you get your own cat5 cable as the cable supplied is not very good quality over a long distance.
Bought this to network with my symbology NAS and provide 24 hour car surveillance. Has been running for over a year now and I am very pleased with it. It is a little difficult to set up due to the NAS software recognising it as a Hikvision Camera and not Anke but I wouldn’t let this put you off. I found the model to register it by a quick Google search. Once you know this it’s really easy. There is no sound, which might be a deal breaker for some, but not for me and it’s ideal for my purposes. It’s a decent IP rating so has been running in all weathers, day and night. For the price and the crisp pictures it delivers, even at night, it is worth the purchase
Edited:
What i can say: ANNKE was more than helpful to exchange i91BM for an older version i like i91BF because it has metallic structure. Maggie the ANNKE representative went above and beyond to resolve it.
After few months i decided to buy again i91BM (plastic structure) just to experiment if will work with the metallic structure of i91BF and is working! Would be ideal if ANNKE can sell separately or when purchasing to be able to choose the structure as i91BF.
Overall ANNKE is amazing and i will continue buy their product.
This morning someone deliberately crashed into my neighbour’s car and run off. Thanks to this product we were able to read the number plates. Our other cameras which are 1080p were useless in this case.
Software is also much better compared to our other cameras, both mobile app and browser access. It took a bit to tweak it to our needs, because there is plenty of options. Some could be helpful in some scenarios. ROI (region of interest) and HLC (highlight compensation) are the ones that suit our needs the best. Excellent product considering the price.
did not state you needed erthnet cable not bnc to work it so never been fitted now can’t return i
Been using this for a few months now and it’s genuinely been a great buy, would definitely recommend this camera. I use a SD card for recording in the camera and power it over PoE so no need for a separate DVR/NVR if you just want a single camera. Set up is a little difficult but just follow instructions and you should be ok. Quality of the physical camera is very good and Image quality is great and worth the effort of the slightly difficult set up.
REVIEW FOR OLD C800 4K (AS SHOWN IN PICTURE)
Annke store are being very naughty here, they are using the old model reviews which is an excellent unit, for the new lower quality unit, that’s why the new reviews are not as good.
I have 2 of the older C800 from annke via amazon and they are excellent, the new unit is a lot cheaper and the image quality is not as good when side by side with the older unit. Hoping they bring the old unit back or sort the new unit out.
Easy to set up, excellent picture quality day or night and good value for money.
Camera great does what it says on the description but I forgot the password, Thanks to Bella at Annke for taking me through the procedure to reset it remotely, will be buying another one of these for the garage
Camera picture quality is excellent, motion detection can be hit and miss. Poor app functioning, have to turn quality and bitframes low to be able to playback videos on sd card. Hope Annke resolve this issue. Will update review once I hear back from them.
This is for the Annke 4K C800 I91BM model of turret camera.
The previous shipped version of the Annke C800 turret camera, the I91BF, used to be made of all metal construction. This updated version now has a plastic mounting base and main housing, whilst the camera part is still housed in a metal sphere.
If you intend to mount the camera at a lower height, the potential robustness of a plastic housing could be an issue. Also with this version you can’t hard-lock the camera position, so the camera angle and position could be altered if at a reachable height. In these circumstances the dome version of the Annke C800 could be considered as an alternative. However, if you intend to mount the turret version at a non-easily accessible height or it’s going to be located in a relatively safe location it should be fine.
The new version has similar functionality to the previous one but now also has a built-in microphone that can be used if you want. Also if you need H.264 this camera no longer has any options to select H.264 / H.264+. It only has H.265 / H.265+. So don’t get this camera if you need H.264.
Ultimately this camera was not suitable for my needs this time particularly as it had to be installed fairly low and outside. So in the end I just bit the bullet and got a proper metal Hikvision turret camera. It did cost me more but at least it’s done now and hopefully the best choice for the location.
Risoluzione eccezionale, UI intuitiva e e infinite opzioni, funzioni.
Ottima la qualit dell’immagine rispetto al prezzo.
Premium camera, built materials, and the quality of image is very, very good. I have same brand nvr with 4 cameras but it can take extra 4 poes cameras, this was recognised automatically and powered up instantly. I have about 30fps constant and about 20/25 night time, great results.
Had issues at the start getting the motion detection working. Top class customer service. Tried to help via exchange of emails and when that didn’t work, a remote session was organised and it was sorted. Excellent product, excellent customer service.
C’est la deuxime camra de ce type que je commande.
La premire avait la rfrence I91BF, tait entirement en mtal et propos.ait le H264
Pour ma deuxime commande d’une I91BF, on m’a livr une I91BM, plus petite, avec socle en plastique et ne proposant que le H265, ce qui pose des problmes de compatibilit et d’intgration.
J’hsite la renvoyer.
***UPDATE*** Le vendeur m’a contact et m’a fait parvenir une version I91BF, avec H264. Excellent suivi et service.
Pros:
Very clear and stable image running H264 to capitalise on the genuine wide angle 4K
Very effective image noise cancelling
Plenty of adjustment options in the webGUI
Easy to link up and manage with off-brand recorders (I’m using Zoneminder, and I’ve tested ispyconnect and Shinobi)
Solid and robust construction
Cons:
Lack of in-built mic (not really much of a con seeing as you buy it knowing this, but having a mic to complement the excellent image quality would see this camera competing with much more expensive units with are perhaps not quite as deserving of their price)
Although I’ve given this only three stars for night vision, this is perhaps a little unfair, as all CCTV cameras’ night vision is generally quite poor with respect to being able to get a useful image of something moving. The three stars are because its acceptable, but does not stand out as exceptional. I’ve teamed up all my cameras with security lighting and this has proved far better at enabling the cameras to get a clear enough shot of a person’s face to recognise them, as opposed to getting blurry infra red shots. Turning off the IR also means that rain during the night doesn’t trigger the motion recording, nor immediately alert snooping individuals to the presence of the cameras with their IR LED red light ‘beacons’!
I took a chance on this camera when the one i really wanted wasn’t in stock …I was NOT disappointed, instead I was rather impressed.
I think it’s a very good camera for the price, the only thing causing a little grief is that the camera still requires IE to do certain features, – sure there are workarounds, but just wish it were not needed. Further, it disturbs me that you cannot upload your own certificate but you have to use the build-in that is not trusted, but this is the only negative I have.
Fantastic!, I’ve not had these cameras in long however from what I see they are brilliant. I have them configured to Synology surveillance station and they give me a brilliant image day or night, with this I record at a lover resolution in constant and then on motion it picks up to 4K. The only problem I am having is that the motion triggers when my boiler kicks in as I have put it too close to the flue and it picks up the steam so makes 2 cam have an issue as certain times of day
Really good quality during the day, quality does naturally start to fade the darker it gets.
Moving images are blurry at night but mine at the minute is only set to take images, maybe recording video will be clearer. Easy to set up. The app is straight forward.
Resolution as advertised but only capable of 15 frames a second maximum.
Mine, mounted externally, developed a leak after 8 months and the lens misted up. It was replaced by Annke customer support without hesitation, so 5 stars for service.
Fantastic price and product, Fully compatabile with hikvision firmware for the DS-2CD2385FWD-I if your wanting to update as annke are running 2019 FW as latest version.
Really good camera can digitally zoom in and view details such as number plates across the road which is about 70ft from the camera location, night vision is very crisp and clear. Very impressed, good tech at a reasonable price.
Doesn’t come with power supply but running mine from a POE switch so just needed the CAT5/6 cable. Motion detection seems a bit too sensitive or not sensitive enough when adjusted on the slider, this may be just fine tuning required on my part though. There are a lot of adjustable settings in the software and setup can be a bit of trial and error but I’d rather too many settings than not enough.
Sturdy camera made out of high quality materials. doesn’t move and fixes in place perfectly on the side of my garage. web gui is easy to use and i installed hikvision firmware onto this. then onvif into my dvr. has built in sd slot for local recording and can be accessed with the app too.
Excellent camera,good pic,needs audio in to make it the perfect camera,,does work on a dahua nvr but with limited ability(needs onviv enabled to work with nvr’s other than its own brand
Really simple to setup. Had it working and configured in minutes. Currently, I have a problem configuring the SMTP settings but I’ll get on to Annke support and see how good they are at resolving it. UPDATE: Having contacted support, they eventually responded with, “Could you please kindly try to register a Gmail? Our camera only supports this email at present.”. I don’t use Gmail so I’m deducting a star for that.
This is a professional grade security camera. It doesn’t have any bells and whistles just amazing image quality at 4k. It’s document is a bit poor and the browser sends the low quality feed of 640×480 instead of 4k. That’s easily fixed by clicking the little number box at the very bottom of the browser window and selecting feed 1 (thanks able annke support but really?!!) or selecting 4k feed in your cam app. The camera is wired ethernet only and whilst viewing on echo show 8 is mentioned in various places online annke have disabled and retired their skill. A silly move in my opinion as competitors will fill that gap with their own 4k show enabled cams. The camera outputs rtsp feeds in h264/h265 (40% xtra compression) as well as plus format of each. But the image quality is exceptional as you can see! The interface for the camera is easily understood and works great in all browsers. All in all very very happy but the echo show is a dissapoitment!
Product arrived very quickly. Still in process of setting up which is proving challenging. Emailed Annke and they got back to me within a day regarding powering camera up which needs a mains plug at the moment as POE did not work even when attaching a Belkin Ethernet Switch. Finally got a the camera working but now having problems setting it up on Synology NAS. Got the Annke vision app on my android tablet working well but can’t get it working on my phone. Will update this review when I do.
Camera purchased to monitor back door entrance. Picture quality is very good during the day and night. Made of solid quality materials.
I’ve tried many POE IP cameras to try and find something suitable for my Zoneminder system.
Then I found the Annke camera, very nice build quality – and look a lot like another brands cameras, right down to the web ui!
They perform very well and the night vision is the best on any camera I have used. Time will tell on reliability – but so far all good and very pleased with these cameras.
Update March 2021: The updated version of this camera does not appear to support H264 only H265 encoding which could be an issue depending on your use case.
This is my fifth ANNKE camera for my home CCTV.
Great quality images.
PoE cameras are so easy to install – only one wire needed.
Very sharp image. You can clearly see the difference when you change resolutions. Would recommend.
Great picture. Night vision maybe actually too good for reading rear number plates because they are designed to be reflective so all you get is a bright blob in the dead of nigh
I already have this CCTV system since a year ago and wanted to extend the coverage footprint so installed one additional camera. The night vision and day time video qualities are both quite good and details could be seen such as car plate numbers etc. The camera has a metal frame and is quite sturdy but I must advise to install this with some longer screws than provided. The longer screws will provide more protection against any falling off and to give more stability in any weather conditions.
I bought this item on Amazon to replace my Ring doorbell which depended on a WiFi connection and needed a paid subscription to use it properly.
The Annke CCTV camera has great looks and runs on power through a cat 7 network cable. It has a solid connection and not an unreliable WiFi link. It records to a network recorder or an SD card in the camera body. The HD and 4K quality is remarkably clear and sharp. There is a little bit of work fitting it and running the cable (up to 100’00” feet if necessary) but the result is excellent.
There is plenty of info on the ‘Smart Home Brand Store’s website and the superb support team are really helpful and patient. I recommend this product if you are looking for a security system that suites most demands.
Thanks to prime, the product arrived quickly. One of the reason that I bought this outdoor camera is our families do a lot more online shoppings instead of going out for shopping now, and I hear people lost their parcels which has been left at their front door around this area. This is a fantastic camera which I chose after comparing with many different models. Easy to install and setup, great picture quality, expecially the night vision, it also provides wide angels. A lovely, solid piece of kit in white paint, looks nice and waterproof, most important thing is it gives me a peace of mind, highly recommend it.
Excellent POE camera. Easy to setup. Just remember on the 4K resolution you can only achieve 15FPS
This was easily integrated into an existing Hikvision NVR setup. It came with instructions that explained the camera had to be configured through it’s admin webpage first. Switch on Onvif access and create a user account and credentials. I initially had a problem getting the camera to power up through its separate power cable. The adaptor I used was a snug fit, but it didn’t work, once I switched it to one size smaller the camera powered up and I was able to complete the instructions. This camera is fantastic value for money for a 4K 8MP camera.
The only option I would have liked to see was VCA, but may be this is provided if you pay for matching CCTV cameras and NVRs.
These have alot of the features of much higher priced cameras for a very reasonable price. The setup is straight forward and the picture quality is great at this price point. The live view and playback quality will vary depending on the DVR that is used and how that handles the video feed, but in our case once the footage is downloaded from the DVR its great. The night vision is good, the fact that the LED’s are separate from the camera lens prevents the camera being blinded by its own LED’s which is good as this can be a problem for other night vision cameras.
I’ve spent some time trying out both cctv and cloud based products that ring a bell. I concluded that relying on Wifi (ie cloud based solutions) only leads to problems with connectivity and functionality. Yes someone was there but when you hear they have gone ! Hence I switched to a hard wired solution. These systems are quite limited in number for the retail market, as they are typically sold and supplied by specialist security firms. After lots of digging I found that Annke are producing OEM versions of what appear to be the industry leader HikVision systems. HikVision no longer supplies direct to consumers but only through commercial partners. I suspect that the quality control may be poorer at Annke, however I have found theie support excellent from the Annke team. I contacted them about a humming sound from one camera. They immediately sent a replacement camera out.
The camera is connected to my Synology NAS drive (but will work on both dedicated NVR or other NAS systems). The cameras are powered with POE (power over ethernet) so only one cable to each camera, but you will need to have a POE switch. The camera is cabled to a suitable POE switch over CAT6 cable which provides both power and relays the camera signal onto your network. The switch then has one wire (or in my case over a Powerline connection) back to the NAS through the LAN. The camera does have on onboard microSim card slot so can also record locally. Furthermore Annke provide HikVision software for your phone so you can get most of teh functionality on your phone without a NAS. However, if you want long term recording and remote access to the recordings then you are going to need a solid NAS like Synology.
I rarely write reviews but having had such great customer service I felt people should know. This is a way to produce a higher quality (4K) solution than famous cloud based systems and at a fraction of the price, with no subscriptions. However if you don’t have a solid NAS or the inclination to setup the POE system then perhaps stick with Wifi and the usual names. They are good, just expensive and of a lower resolution. I’ve feel you need 4K for solid facial recognition.
Love this camera. Wide angle with ability to move position. Picture quality is great. Battery lasts a long time. Night vision is perfect especially when used alongside security light making it as good as daytime quality. I noticed a defect with my wall bracket after owning the camera for a few months. Reolink communicated well and provided new parts to rectify the issue in a timely manner. Great customer service. I have two cameras which link well in the app. Looking forward to add additional cameras in the near future
Really great camera. Was not sure how it would perform but it’s very good.
Picture quality and internet browser UIF are good. But it looks like that other connection method to the camera is Annke software. I was try several “free” software but i did not get connection to the camera in the home network or from outside.
Ideal stand-alone units and/or networked arrangement, excellent build quality, clear imaging and effective motion detection. Let down only by the lack of an instruction manual that sits someway between the Quick Start Guide and the overly comprehensive manual included within the software package. A first-class product for both the home user and the professional installer.
Great camera. Easy to setup.
A few months later the camera developed a fault. Customer service helped and agreed the camera was defective and sent a replacement which was received quickly.
Finally got a 4K camera for my Hikvision NVR at a cheap price. The picture quality is amazing and I can confirm this camera is a Hikvision.
Mounting these cameras on the soffits, the 30m night vision range is ideal. The back door camera show the area only illuminated by the camera. In contrast I’ve provided a capture from the dome cam used previously on the front, which had only 20m night range. It goes without saying that daylight vision is fine.
This was a good camera for a home surveillance system and has fitted into my existing setup easily. I thought this was an easy camera to setup and once it was plugged in to the HDR, my CCTV system picked it up pretty quickly. The camera is quite compact and doesn’t take up much space in the corner of the room. The motion detection and night vision is reliable as it was able to pick up sensitive movements during the night so I was impressed by that. I did struggle getting the instant alerts working properly and have still managed to not get them working after quite a few goes so will have to contact the seller for further advice.
Bought this to set at a friends beach house! It’s image quality is fantastic.
Connected these to my Synology DS218j via OnVIF. The picture quality is great, and the wide angle lense gives the view needed. Night mode is reasonable too, and better that my previous Foscam bullet camera. So good that I bought two more!
Works great as an add on to my Annke system
Can’t fault this camera for the price it is.
Was abit tricky getting it set up to my NVR, but after connecting to the camera directly, I found that onvif was disabled and had to be enabled upon setup.
Only able to record at 12fps which is slightly disappointing, but not sure if this is to do with my NVR processing power or the camera.
Other than that both day and night image quality is outstanding.
These appear to be the same as another leading brand, even down to the software running on them with just minor tweaks to the fimware.
Assuming they came out the same factory just not passing the QA, but at over a 100 off the price the odd glich or dead pixel i can live with. So far i have had minimal artifacts on recordings/ false triggers. No other issues so far. Very impressed
