    Did any of you have to deal with IP video intercoms from China and can say something more about them? Whenever possible, I would like to ask for specific comments from someone who has seen these (or other similar) intercoms, not a question of what Chinese electronics are worth.

    I am thinking about these two sets:

    and

    https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free-Shipping...-Touch-Screen-Video-Intercom/32844228283.html

    the first with two monitors, an RFID reader, the second gives a more solid impression. The weak point of both are phone applications, in both cases they are applications with a low Google Play rating, for the first of these is also the opinion that whether the "conversation" will come or not is a pure lottery. The second has only two ratings, one for four stars, the other for one, which is also meaningful.

    With the second set we had (un-) pleasure to meet at the assembly and I confirm the opinion that someone gave to the first - LOTTERY !. Don't expect anything else from these tinsel. Each of the functions (bell, conversation, image, opening) works whenever it wants and how it wants and when it happens by accident that all these functions work at once, we are happy as little Jasio from the queue under the Christmas tree and we cherish those moments because they can quickly don't come back anymore :)

    best regards

    PS
    I wonder what you will do when you want to advertise it ...

    But does this lottery concern the app on the phone, or does the outdoor-monitor set also work randomly?

    Yes, this also applies to the app. It happened that it did not respond to the call at all, other times it behaved so that after the call it blanked the smartphone screen (and the phone rang all the time) or flickered turning on and off itself.
    The set itself behaved a little better, but also unstable.

    And by the way, colleague Ircys, you didn't deign to answer it to me ;)


    ... because exactly with this Orno I had no (un-) pleasure and I regard it as an advantage :) I know, I know, it's all from "one ax", but you still asked about the concrete.

    Gentlemen, I have read a bit in the meantime and now I have the impression that the cooperation of IP video intercoms with apps is generally a heavy topic. The Chinese from Aliexpress are Chinese from Aliexpress, but e.g. popular with us and even recommended as a very good Dahua, as I found out, uses the gDMSS Lite app. This is an app with more than THREE THOUSAND negative comments, mainly opinions about its instability or incompatibility.
    In the thread I see people dealing with intercoms professionally - and what would you recommend in the dark as a reliable and trouble-free device? My needs:
    - video intercom for a single-family house
    - external part necessarily with real IP65 (exposed to driving rain), preferably narrow (

    And what would you say for spending a minimum of PLN 3,000 for a commax cdv 70ux with a drc 40kpt camera? It's not like 720p, which in my opinion doesn't bother you at all. For this reader a combination lock as a separate device. best regards

    And what's the actual resolution? Because I didn't find anywhere quickly searching, the angle of view is only given. I can actually earn some extra RFID reader as a separate device, controlling the bolt independently.

    At this time, according to prices from the website videoodomofony.pl, I would have less than 2500 PLN to spend for the basic set. Plus still from PLN 800, if I wanted to add a second monitor ... This is very expensive compared to the Chinese (where I can have a set with two monitors for 1/3 of this price), but if these commaxes actually work reliably, then maybe worth thinking In particular, if their app is stable and reliable, maybe a second monitor would be superfluous? Then the PLN 2,500 sounds like something acceptable ...

    At the beginning there were minor problems, but now it works without any problems. The camera resolution itself thinks it does not exceed 500 lines, but it is quite enough to recognize a person up to 1m away, because this is what the intercom is for. The downside is the lack of the ability to call the image yourself, but it can be "deceived" by the gsm transmitter, e.g. alarm system.

    No possibility to call the image yourself, but from the app? Is the monitor also ???

    From the app. Add a roof to the camera and a hitch power supply

    Another question for Ircys about this Chinese intercom - how did its exterior look in practice in terms of water resistance? In the advertisements, individual sellers describe it as waterproof, some even as IP64, but to be honest it does not look and I have some concerns here. Especially since I have already unpleasantly cut the camera's water resistance in my current orno: pinhole camera, vandalproof, armored - and unfortunately, zero water resistance, water entered inside as it wanted, the camera after three seasons simply rotted.

    This Chinese (like any Chinese!) Looked OK, but nothing other than what happened to you with Orno, I would not expect from this equipment.

    best regards

    The whole pic is not about water resistance, but about the fact that the water that gets even through the loudspeaker blinds can also get out freely. The life of the panels is also affected by assembly errors such as silicone sealing, placing the cassette at an upward angle, running the connecting cables so that water flows down them into the cassette. Unfortunately, cheap equipment often goes hand in hand with cheap assembly by all kinds of "magicians" from all kinds of installations.

    The assembly was just ok (plug-in cassette, in the original "frame" embedded in the wall, the cable entering the cassette straight from the wall), but:

    - "pinhole" is simply a hole. The water from the driving rain seeps inside through it,
    - bell button - the same, zero seal
    - the loudspeaker holes seem to be profiled so that each of them has a "roof", but the cutting rain easily gets inside.
    The effect was that in wet rainy weather, the camera image was blurry, blurry spots, sometimes it got wet and the speaker and then nothing could be heard. After two or three years of such exploitation, in the last frosty weeks the whole damn finally hit completely.

    The commax recommended for you is not much better. It is also not tight and usually it lasts much longer than 3 years :)

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the reliability and performance of IP video intercoms from Aliexpress, specifically the YobangSecurity 7-inch model and a 1.0MP 720P AHD HD TCP/IP SIP model. Users report significant issues with both devices, describing their functionality as erratic, with features like calling, image transmission, and app connectivity working inconsistently. Concerns are raised about the quality of the associated mobile applications, which have low ratings and are prone to failures. Comparisons are made to other brands, such as Dahua and Commax, with suggestions for more reliable alternatives. Users express skepticism about the waterproof claims of the Chinese models, citing past experiences with similar products that failed under wet conditions. Overall, the consensus is that while the Chinese intercoms are cheaper, their reliability and performance may not justify the cost savings.
