Pros and cons

According to our IP camera expert

Thanks to 2K Quad HD resolution, the camera displays the image sharper than a camera with Full HD resolution.
With the built-in microphone, you can hear what's happening at a distance.
The camera uses PoE, so you only have to connect 1 cable.
The camera can't pan, tilt, or zoom remotely.
You can only use this camera with a NAS UniFi, not with a NAS from another brand.

Description

With the Ubiquiti UniFi Protect G5 Bullet camera, you always have a 2K image quality view of your garden or driveway. A 2K image is 4 times sharper than an HD image. This way, you can keep an eye on everything in razor-sharp quality. In addition, the built-in microphone allows you to hear what's happening around the camera. The camera uses PoE, so it gets its power via the Ethernet cable. This way, you don't need a separate power cord, but you do need a PoE adapter or network switch. Mount the camera to the wall or to a post, and aim it in the right direction yourself. With the Unifi Protect app, you can watch what happens on camera live. You can save the images to a NAS UniFi, which is a kind of separate cloud service you can use to store your files. The NAS UniFi isn't included.

Review is 5,5 out of 10.

Good price/quality, but limiting ecosystem

Very good image quality
Reasonable night view
Easy to connect to your Unify Protect hardware
Account required to accept AI features

The camera footage looks very good during the day and reasonably good in the dark. Excellent quality for the price, provided you're comfortable with the Ubiquity ecosystem.

The camera connects seamlessly to Unify Protect, and you can use it right away. However, that's where the fun ends for those who value privacy or simply prefer to run everything locally.

Ultimately, I returned it after much fiddling with Unify Protect.

The AI features cannot be used without agreeing to the terms and conditions. This requires an internet connection and a Unify account. Even if you refuse to accept the terms and conditions, clicking 'No' results in an error stating that it cannot register your preference without an account connection. This message appears every time you open the app on the portal.

I finally agreed to this to get rid of the message and then disconnected from the internet again. Then, suddenly, I discovered that the camera cannot be viewed via the app when using a VPN. This is because the app operates on network stack level 2 instead of 1. 3. This can only be circumvented by opening Unify Protect to the Unify Cloud and logging into the app with a cloud account, or by also purchasing Ubiquity network equipment and installing the VPN on it. Another clever example of a walled garden, where you're blackmailed into spending more for a decent experience.

Topper

Sharp
Pure
Beautiful image
It might be possible to adjust the IR strength in the future

This is a great one so far, I'll test the g6 later, but so far so good.
