Ubiquiti Networks UVC-G3-FLEX UniFi Camera G3 Flex 1080p Video Indoor/Outdoor Night/Day Wide View IP LEDs:: (Enterprise Computing > Wireless Networking) +}

I run with Blue Iris, and it does what I wanted. POE, no WIFI, HD image. It gets 5 stars cause it did what I wanted when I decided to purchase. Getting to run on BI was a little frustrating because login and configuration details had to be found on web. I liked the challenge. If product goes thru an upgrade I hope company can add one or two more IR LEDs and also give the option to turn off IR LEDs . Might sound contradictory, but its not if you want to sometimes illuminate with 940 nm light.

sure there are 20 others that can work, I like and use ubiquiti products, robust, yes a learning curve, dont always play nice with others but as a system, perfect, Had 2 cams talking to my win 10 PC in less than 15 minutes.. phone app works on my local network.

This Unifi G3 Flex camera has very good picture quality. Night vision is excellent too. I love how I can scroll through the timeline and see different events captured and view them. You can adjust the motion sensitivity etc. from the app. I plan on buying more of these.

Awesome to see a Ubiquiti camera for under $100... Makes it more competitive.

Quality camera providing great flexibility for interior and exterior locations. Easy to install, great picture quality.

For those serious about home surveillance & savvy enough to setup their own NVR server, this is by far the best option on the market right now. Night vision IR is fantastic. Extremely easy to setup on-site or off-site. They look extremely professional and sleek and intimidating to unwanted visitors. Reliable NVR software, too. Buy them or the more expensive UniFi products. Theres really no reason to go with anything else. 10/10.

This under $100 camera is definitely not IP anything weather rated but I have it mounted on a redwood 2/4 and on the outdoors on the ground mount straight up. No issues yet after 5 months of operation. The night vision LEDs is good up to about 35 feet. I have notices that night vision with LEDs (IR) off is better for over 35 feet viewing. The resolution is good enough to read California standard License plates up to 30 feet in day light in motion of not (not readable in darkness). The audio is clear and sensitive up to 80 feet of normal speech level. Highly recommended but dont mount it on the ground like I do because it might void the warranty. The company support which is just okay (better than nothing but could be improved) is online chat and or email. In my use case, all the setting are default and at highest bit rate and resolution, but with HDR disabled. HDR does not improve overall quality enough and in low light pulsates the video.

First and foremost let me say that Unifi Protect is excellent compared to Arlo and Ring. It may be slightly more complicated to set up for normies, but it is a really solid system once its all up and running. I joined the Unifi family after Unifi Video was deprecated but from what I can tell, Protect is the future, built on a solid platform and it will take time to bring back all the features that really matter. As for the G3 Flex, the price cant be beat. $70-80 for a PoE camera this small and with this kind of performance is a steal. My #1 complaint with all Unifi cameras however are the viewing angles. While this might matter to you case by case, most Unifi cameras are 80-100° of horizontal viewing angle, and much less if you turn on distortion correction. The Flex is right around 87° with correction off. This would work well where you have 15-20 to your target area with few obstructions. The sensor quality is good, but it really excels inside of 10 if you are trying to pull a plate number or something. Therein lies the issue - its a narrow camera with a good, but not excellent sensor, which means its really only suited to a long shot coverage role. Thats ok given the price point. Living in an urban area, everything is tightly packed in and I am limited where I can place the cameras. I also want really good coverage since people mess about on my property weekly if not daily. This leads me to use more Unifi cameras than I would with some other brand that has a wider FoV. Thats also fine, but it means I also need more wiring and power to the same area, raising the overall cost of the system. Its no longer 3 cameras, but 5 and a new switch and beefy PoE injector. All that said, I am still very much a fan of these devices and ecosystem. The iPad app is fantastic for continuous monitoring, but Android app falls completely flat, constantly reconnecting and with horrid performance. I do wish Flex and other cameras came in other colors or has readily available skins like other brands. I ended up using Plastidip to turn my cameras black. In fact, Plastidip works on most outdoor Unifi equipment very well.

Out of 3 cameras 1 constantly goes offline Been trying. To RMA not the easiest

Installed a 24 camera system with NVR for a client 2 years ago when these cameras were hot off the press. NOW UBIQUITI HAS DECIDED TO DROP SUPPORT FOR THE NVR AND WANTS US TO PURCHASE NEW EQUIPMENT. THIS IS A SCAM PRODUCT, DO NOT PURCHASE.
