Firefighter 0 Posted February 2, 2015 So someone I know went to Sams Club and bought a samsung 4 chan 960h system for $350 and wants help putting it in. I told him to return the system and I'd find him one he'll be more happy with. The samsung had bad reviews and for the cost I knew he could get 720p. So here is what I am having him return. http://www.samsclub.com/sams/4ch-dvr-4-camera-sds-p3042n-us/prod12720074.ip So, I found this Q-See System for $299 from costco. http://www.costco.com/Q-See-4-Channel-HD-720p-Security-System-with-1TB-HDD-and-4-720p-Cameras.product.100151663.html 4 cam dvr, 4cams 720P over Analog? It says AnalogHD. for cheaper, this is a better system isn't it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unix1992 0 Posted February 2, 2015 Analog is not HD, well there is an exception, but he is better off investing in an IP system. Increase his budget to 900 dollar and he has a much better system at Costco. The image quality of the 300 dollar costco is comparable to the Samsung I think, reliability is an other story.

Firefighter 0 Posted February 2, 2015 I understand (I have 6 hik 3MP bulllets) But it doesn't appear I can convince him to spend more unfortunately. I can only assume these comparisons are about what he'd be looking at. It's still an upgrade from the 960h samsung he was wanting to install. 6COuQYqJEPc r5aaI7cU6Tk WrRd98R8Isk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Firefighter 0 Posted February 6, 2015 Well, helped(I did it all) my friend install his system and I gotta say with the Q-See, setup was crazy easy for the mobile app. No port forwarding, networking or anything. Got the app on their phones, hit setup/scan code and it filled it in and was done. (of course I ran a cat5e from the dvr to the router) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
