Support for 4MP cameras is impressive at this price level, but note that it cannot simultaneously play back more than 4 channels. The hardware is not powerful enough to simultaneously playback 16x4MP streams. Its a great option if you are on a budget but I would encourage you to look at our best value recommendation below. PROS:Good image quality with 4MP camerasIR LEDs provide night vision capabilityExcellent value for moneyUSB Backup featureCONS:No advanced motion detection methods such as line crossing, intrusion or dwell detectionNVR doesn’t support ONVIF standard for automatically adding 3rd party IP camerasCan playback only 4 channels simultaneously synchronous playbackNo redundant storage supportNo remote controlCheck Price on AmazonCheck Price on Reolink. comBack to comparison tableBest Value 16 ch NVR Kit: LaView 6MP 16 channel NVR Kit with 12x 2MP PoE cameras and 3TB hard drive LaView LV KN996P1612A4 T3 LV N9916C6E NVR Features16 channel recording @ 6MP supportedPoE enabled3TB hard drive included, max. I believe its great value though as most people can do just fine with 1080p resolution. What is more important is that it supports advanced motion detection algorithms to cut down on false alerts. Besides you can always add more higher resolution cameras as 4 PoE ports are available for further expansion. Although it come with only 1 hard drive, you can add up to 4 in total for an amazing level of redundancy. You can even specify which cameras should be recorded on each disk – that is a degree of fine tuning that you cannot get in lesser models. I am not as happy about the lack of 4K output, especially as the NVR supports cameras of up to 6MP.

If you're using a home automation hub to control things like lighting and thermostats, you can add a Z Wave or Zigbee smart lock to the system without much effort. Alternately, if you don't have a home automation hub, look for a Wi Fi or Bluetooth lock that comes with its own mobile app. Smart locks use standard pre drilled holes and are fairly easy to install. Some models use your existing keyed cylinder and deadbolt hardware and attach to the inside of your door, while others require that you remove your existing interior and exterior escutcheons and replace the deadbolt and strike hardware. Smart locks can be opened and closed using a mobile app and will send a notification when someone locks or unlocks a door, and most allow you to create permanent and temporary access schedules for family members and friends based on specific hours of the day and days of the week. Features to look for include geofencing, which uses your phone's location services to lock and unlock the door, voice activation using Siri HomeKit, Google Assistant, or Amazon Alexa voice commands, support for IFTTT, and integration with other smart home devices such as video doorbells, outdoor cameras, thermostats, smoke alarms, and connected lighting.
