It simply doesn’t make sense in today’s world to look at a home security camera setup that doesn’t offer 4K video.

I’ve had the Swann Xtreem4K 4K wire-free security camera set up for a while now, and it has absolutely convinced me that you can get 4K quality at a reasonable price point.

Easy to set up and control and just $299.95 for a single camera, there’s no real issues on the image quality side. The Swann security app is a bit too slow and clunky for my liking, though, which is something I noted in my SwannBuddy 4K video doorbell review.

That said, the fact you can set up a network of Swann 4K cameras and get most functionality without having to pay a subscription is a big win here.
