Pros and cons of 4G security cameras
Pros
Flexible installation location
As 4G cameras usually use batteries, most of them use solar panels to charge the batteries (solar panels are strongly recommended), so it can be installed in almost any area.
Simple installation
No complicated wiring, no extra power supply, no WIFI and Ethernet. You only need to power on the camera (usually using solar panels to avoid the hassle of charging), insert the SIM card, and connect to the mobile phone APP, and you can access the 4G security camera anytime, anywhere.
Stable and reliable
There is no need to worry about the power outage or the disconnection of the network, which will cause you to be unable to view the video remotely. The 4G security camera provides 365 days of protection.
Cons
The cost of 4G security cameras is higher than that of WIFI security cameras. This is a problem you have to face. Due to higher technology, 4G cameras are not only more expensive, but also you need to buy a cellular data plan.
Note: Based on the cost and battery life requirements of cellular data, saferexpert4G security cameras usually support PIR/Radar wake-up recording function, and saferexpert4G battery cameras will wake up quickly within 0.2s. This means that you can choose to ignore meaningless recordings. This technology is more suitable for 4G security cameras. Of course, you can choose 24/7 recording, which means more cellular data costs, memory costs, and battery life issues.
