Refurbished cameras are as good as new ones, for half the price
By Trapdoor on Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2017
We had two of these cameras previously purchased previously from Costco, and liked them, so we decided two more. I was able to use the existing wiring from a previously installed, now defunct alarm system to power these camera's which saved some unsightly wiring. I bought 2 more from Costco, and discovered that they had changed the design from a two wire connection to a USB Cable, and was not able to use the existing wires with that setup. I was relieved to find that Amazon had some refurbished cameras that used the old two wire system. I found that these were every bit as good as the original "new" cameras and now have 4 cameras in place that allow me to monitor my home from my iPhone, and more importantly, allow me to check to see whether an alarm reported by a recently installed new security system was real or false. The new/old cameras have been in use for 6 months/2 years and I have had no problems with them.

The Complete Review

Here is a complete review. The package arrives well insulated (box within a box), which is a smart move for AMZN sellers in electronics. First thing out of the box to check: insure that it memory card is included because these are refurbished. If not, contact AMZN and AMZN will credit you to purchase a SD card with free shipping.Support for the Samsung is 877.349.3149. Wait times can be up to 20 minutes, but they know their product line. Samsung staff is a little bit of a smart alec because they know you are frustrated and are dealing with a security issue. Just ignore their attitude.I have read on AMZN that the cams stop working after a couple of months. No. What you need to do is turn off the router and / or modems plus unplug your cams.Another tip: the idea is to have cams that go undetected. The settings can be confusing. If you turn ON night vision, when the room is dark, the camera illuminates with red lights and any intruder can detect it. To avoid this, turn OFF night vision and keep a night light on. (Note: night vision is found in lower left hand corner of the tools icon.)The next light you want to make sure is turned off is the LED. Every time power is lost or you unplug & replug a cam in, the LED setting switches back to ON. Go to "SETUP," scroll to Status LED, and select "OFF."These are two-way audio cams. This means they can be used to check on your dog, for example. "Rover! Get out of the trash!" you may say while you are work. You may need to experiment with this. No, you NEED to experiment with this for two reasons. The first reason is that on the refurbished cams the LISTENING sound has not worked always. I have just sent the cams back. So TEST the cams to make sure you can HEAR what's going on in the room where the cam is. Next test with a mic, if someone can HEAR you speak. Remember, you need your own mic if you are accessing the cams from your PC and want to speak from there vs the mobile phone app. NOTE: the mic and hearing controls are found in the lower left hand corner of the screen where there is a tools app.One last anomaly that I noticed is the time and date. Samsung swore that its website was not being hacked but at times its server must have been resetting the time settings. Go to the "TIME" tab and insure it is set for your time zone and check "DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME" and "TIME DISPLAYS" if you are a USA continental resident (not sure about Hawaii). You want time display because if you need to turn over footage to your local police department, they need it.Seller: if you want a FIVE: please check the audio and make sure to include the scan disks.

I have used these cameras at home, and bought these for my business. Very simple to install and have proven to be reliable in the past.
Don’t bother waste of money

The camera worked for less than an hour. Called the company the said that the camera was defective and there would be no way to reset the camera. Had to send it back. Also the cameras were old and used very disappointing. I will never order anything from that company again.
What I expected

I bought 2 sets of these cameras but didn't set them up as soon as I got them. It turns out that one has a bad power cord so I have to buy a replacement out-of-pocket since I didn't return it within the 30-day warranty period - my fault. Besides the bad power cord, the other 3 cameras all work as expected. It would be nice if they connected to my Samsung Smartthings hub but they don't and I knew they wouldn't when I bought them (...I wanted cameras with an SD card because I don't want to pay for cloud storage so these were the best option at the time of my purchase).I use these cameras in my windows to face outside of the house to see what's going on in the front and back yards and to provide an extra level of security since they can be seen. I had to turn off the night vision function because the red lights were glaring back in the windows at night and they were all I could see in the recordings or in live view. Samsung's SmartCam app allows me to set the sensitivity levels for sound or motion, ranges of where I want the cameras to pick up motion (so I can block out trees, etc.), and I get activity notices on my phone (I never knew that cats come around my property regularly during the day and night!). I have the option of viewing events, which are the motion or sound activity the cameras pick up, or I can view live.Overall, I'm happy with these cameras except for the bad power cord.
Great Product

Although the shipment was delayed, the products came in nicely packaged and the product themselves looks new and in good condition. Immediately installed these cameras and the picture quality is great; although one of the camera has a loose base so the camera could not stand straight with the base. Overall, the product is great and hopefully nothing will come up later on.
Nice smart cam

I had one from Costco, it is so great. After I found this refurbished and read reviews, I ordered this double pack, shipping was fast, installing was no any trouble; everything is perfect except microSD cards were missing.
