Pros & Cons
Pros
This camera also records audio since it has a built in mic. Its microphone is the most sensitive of the 3 cameras that i have with audio. Still needs firmware update to get all the features the camera can do, but that will come.
This is my first ip camera and i've immediately fallen in love with ip cameras powered with poe/poe+. It is close to dahua/empire tech 2mp. Low light sensor takes the cake.
Cons
The picture quality is great on this cam, but the main downfall is that it doesn't stay locked into place when the set screw is tightened down. I understand that this isn't andy's problem, but it should be passed onto dahua so they can fix it.

My previous system had a variety of cameras that were all universally good during the day, but at night most just did a poor job.
Price
This is a great price and also comes with good customer service.
Andy is *the* go-to guy for great cameras, great prices, and great customer services.
We all know that too cheap comes at a high cost.
It's true that you get what you pay for.
Shipping
Camera working as intended with quick delivery.
Competitiveness
I would 10/10 recommend both this camera and buying from empiretech.
This camera has a lot of settings, more than the other reolink cameras i have.
This camera is a dahua ipc-hdw5442tm-as, rebranded for sale here.
It is not comparison to my amcrest 4k which typically are not ideal at night.
