Synology BC500 and TC500 Surveillance Cameras - Should You Buy?

[@rasmusdegruil3545]

Nice. Hope it will not be too expensive. Also: make a smart doorbell cam please that stores data locally on the NAS.

Excellent video

I imagine Synology has done what they're doing with Seagate hard drives, rebranding an existing third party camera and customizing the firmware slightly to lock you in that bit more. Further, the price premium will likely be on the high side knowing Synology. Unless, of course, buying one of these works out no more expensive compared to an equivalent camera plus the required Synology licence.

I appreciate you making this pros/cons video about the cameras. This was very informative!

Hi, Great video! Can you do a video of several brands of cameras, so we can make a better choice. Best regards. Keep the good job!

3 years of warranty? If it's like the EU demanded, the 3rd year is only to throw sand to customer's eyes because on theat 3rd year, customers have to prove that the issue exists since the beginning. 🤦🏼

I think it is a great idea that Synology have gone into cameras, however due to their greed on spare parts ( eg. RAM, Power Board failure unrepairable, buy a new unit!), I would not buy a non NAS product by Synology ,if another manufacturer was producing something similar.

I think a NAS company releasing their own camera is a great idea. Since there are just too many to choose from, simplifies the process. Adding AI was a brilliant call. I don't see that as annoying at all (as HDD, memory, and n2.mvne are annoying.) Good call from Synology.

5MP 110° is a big leap of faith 🤔

[@swappy76]

licence is offer with the cam?

[@ernestoditerribile]

These are just rebranded Dahua cameras, immediately reconized the base and placement of the speaker, microphone with the microSD in the middle with the single screw cover.

#1 feature: Made in Taiwan with Taiwanese IC by Novatek, real security from the ground up, not another CCP camera, China free!
