I'm looking at the Difference between 1A404XB-GNR and 1A404XB-GNR-W mini PTZ by Dahua.
As far as I can see in the specifications they are both the same but the '-W' has WiFi support. I am not planning to use WiFi so this doesn't mater to me.

What I do notice is the price difference between them, I'm curious why the WiFI version is cheaper.
I would go for the WiFi version because its cheaper for the same item, but I don't like the look of the WiFi antenna connector to the side.

The order of the price difference depend on the website you use . But the prices are different by only $5.00 US on the web suites i checked. Supply and demand..

if you are interested in International Dahua cameras, a forum member sells dahua (and some Hikvision) and ships world wide. You can read some of the members recommendations on his service. He also provides cameras to other forum member for evaluation and reviews.
You can email him for a quote, or purchase from his Aliexpress store or his Amazon store. The cameras are fully upgradable, he posts upgrade software when available.

Note: i believe that he will have Black Friday deals.

Slightly confused on your statement..?
Both these cameras (links and screenshot) are from @EMPIRETECANDY 's Aliexpress store.

Andy's Amazon store has the non-WiFi version for more than the non-WiFi on Aliexpress ($278NZD on Amazon vs $255NZD on Aliexpress).

1A404XB-GNR POE wired
1A404XB-GNR-W None POE Wifi, need a 12V 2A adapter to power it.

Function or pic quality are the same.

Ah, that answers it!
I thought I read over it and saw just the WiFi as a difference.
Now that you've pointed it out I feel stupid for starting a whole thread..... oh well. :facepalm:

In my opinion threads like this one are important.
One could think the -W model has an additonal function and that's it.
In fact, it lacks an other function instead, so you can't say "I'm buying the better model so I'm fine in any scenario in the future"
You have to know how and where you want to mount it in advance.

As the -W model has an RJ45 port, too, it isn't obvious to everybody that it lacks POE support.
