Is edge camera worth buying?

Tags: Piracy

Hi guys, what I do is to buy security products from big companies and sell them to get margin.

However recently because of covid19, we have fewer customers.But the suppliers hope we can buy some more equipments for stocking.

And they’re talking about the AI edge cameras, they said it’s the trend. It doesn’t need a NVR or server to run CCTV system.
However the price is higher, which I think is not attractive to my customers.

Does anyone also sell edge cameras successfully recently? It is worth buying?

Don’t sell things you’re not convinced of yourself to your customers only to make more money. That’s a bad way of running a business.

Moreover, it’s not only hardware that matters. The services offered are more important. Only you, as a security expert, know what your customers need and what the best way is to provide it.

I think you answered the topic question.

I did look at the DCS-8302LH, includes a motorized panning feature that can provide a 360-degree view of any room and automatically track a subject’s motion. It’s 100USD from what I can tell and you seem to get so much for that price.

HOWEVER if you don’t need all that, no-sale there.

You shouldn’t buy or sell it before you know about the merchandise. You should ask experts or integrators to give you advice

I have no idea…

Yes, the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra is worth buying but again, it’s not for everyone because the 128GB variant at Rs 59,999 is a bit pricey compared to its competition, the biggest disadvantage will be night photography, it does great in daylight but the same doesn’t reflect in the night.

James
