Customer Reviews for Defender Ultra HD 4K (8MP) 8 Channel 2TB DVR Wired Security Camera System with Remote Viewing and 7 Cameras

Great product; easy installation. Highly recommended.

Pleasantly surprise with the very easy and responsive software. Picture is super clear. Very happy

We purchased a new home with an older model of the Defender Camera system. When we upgraded, we found that there were issues with the DVR we received. We contacted Defender and they replaced the DVR with no problems. They were communicative and kept up up to date on the entire process

Night vision is working

Clarity improved greatly with higher resolution, although we are still using some low resolution from our original system.

As advertised, super clear video. Hard drive does "hum" 24/7.

Produces terrific HD images. Installation is straight forward. Setting up DVR alarm/notification is a bit tricky.

They replaced my first dvr and the 2nd is just as loud. I planned on the DVR being in my office but there is no way I can tolerate the non stop noise. This is my 3rd Denferder camera system and I am extremely disappointed

I purchased this system months ago and just installed it. It was super easy and the app to connect to it was just as easy to connect to. Had another brand for years and I should have done this sooner. Tech support also was just as great.

We were very surprised on how fast the shipping was. We are thrilled with our 4KUltra HD Wired 4 channel system. The videos are amazingly clear! The app is outstanding. First time set up takes some time - - but all the while worth it! Everyone is impressed with the quality of the system. Worth every penny! I am looking forward to purchasing an additional couple of wifi cameras in the near future.

junk if i cannot get someone att!!! 3 of 8 cameras not work. 2 with line going therw them.have move them from front to back back to front

Fairly easy to install but the app lacks functionality and one of the cameras didn’t work

I bought these cameras this past summer due to crime increasing in my area. These cameras are great and even the police have commented on the great footage, as they have taken footage 3 times from me since I got them set up. I was concerned about them working in extreme cold and right now we are in a cold snap of -37c over night with wind chill of close to -50c and they are working great with no issues!

This is our second one of these we have purchased. Loved the first one, so easy to work with and monitor off site. This second one is going to replace a existing security system of a different company, which has always been hard to work with.

I had installed, this my second defender product and had poor night vision - HOWEVER - I contacted the support and they resolved the issue very quickly by helping me see what I needed to do to get better night vision- the problem was the placement and angles of the cameras - not resolved - I'm back to loving my 8 camera system

Came faster than expected. Unit seems solid and easy to setup. Have not yet been able to do a complete install of all cameras but what I have been able to get completed they are working well and great image. A good deal of settings to work through to tweak them as you wish. I have mine connected to my 55 inch tv in our living room and used a wireless mouse instead of the wired one sent. Works great! Choose the wired cameras as I have the space to hard wire them without the wires being exposed. This gave me the 2T hard drive as well as power and a better image so shouldn't have any issues with overwriting something that I may have wanted to keep. Still playing with the system but like it so far.

Picture quality is quite good for the price, was surprised. Only thing I don’t like so far is that I had to mount a camera sideways to get a taller narrower picture to cover my whole driveway. The image on the app or display monitor is sideways and can’t be rotated.

The system works very well. The video is clear and sharp. Ours is a wired system and quite easy to install and set-up.

The cameras have a very detailed picture. Color is great. My wife and I prefer the hard wired camera system instead of having a wireless system. That way unless the power is out we are recording. This is a great system

Overall I love the Defender 4K and would recommend it to anyone. Only reason for the 4 star instead of a 5, is the cables on the cameras could make installations easier if the cable was 6-10 inches longer. Here in Florida you are almost always going through or over a cement block wall and it makes it difficult with the current length.

All it does is make an annoying whirring sound. Extremely disappointed

Great picture and quality for the price. The system is easy to setup and is well worth the investment. I have helped several people set this system up at their home and business. Have had no problems with any of equipment

Overall, great setup. Camera resolution is fantastic and it works great in all lighting conditions. Biggest down sides are cables/connectors are NOT outdoor rated so you have to take steps to weatherize, and the user interface doesn't allow a keyboard, so you do everything with a wonky mouse.

Just installed this week. Picture quality is awesome!!Purchased 2 (16 camera)units and my customer is very happy

Great night and day time vision.

The screws on the cameras are so tight they cannot be unscrewed. Not even with an electric screwdriver. Not even the strongest man. The camera is useless if I cannot adjust it. I would like to get an exchange for one of the cameras.

works well, we 've had some blurry issues. don't have audio on the cameras and the play back on the connecting app is not as good as on the at home device itself

I bought this system because of the 4K and good reviews I leave on a dead end road and my wife needed some peace of mind knowing she could look outside without opening the door. The cameras have good quality and the distance is great even at night.I like the easy setup and installation it was simple. Only thing it only turns up or down and I need it to turn right on two cameras to get a better view and if it did it would be a five star I recommend this system very highly. 100% better than a Sony system my neighbor has.
