Quality


The camera is excellent, very clear picture, and very durable.


Excellent product, i have had from the same brand since 2015 and i just bought more for more coverage


I have 4 amcrest cameras and 2 of them stopped working after i changed the location where i want it to be.


Got this after i dropped and broke one while moving it.

Price


These cameras work very well for the price.

Competitiveness


It's only 1080p resolution yet that's more than enough for most purposes.


Haven't tested its sound features but i'm assuming they're adequate.
