Hikvision 8MP PoE Kit Thoughts

[CHB]

I'm thinking of replacing my 8 year old Swann (rebadged Hikvision) NVR and cameras from Costco with a 4k Hikvision NVR kit from bhphoto, but there I can't find any reviews or even that much information about it online. I'm comfortable using the HikConnect app and am not worried about the Chinese gov. spying on my backyard or property. Does anyone have any thoughts on this system?

in the PDF (on hikvison website)

EKI-K164T814A:
• 4K 16-CHANNEL POE ACUSENSE NVR DS-7616NXI-K2/16P with 4TB HDD
• 8 MP IP IR CAMERAS(12) ECI-T28F2(2.8mm)
• 8 MP 180° PANORAMIC CAMERA(2) DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL

the ECI-T28F2 are 2.8 only, only close view? not really the best but these are all 1/2.8 sensors, just for that, trash because of 4k

the panoramic are the usual 1/1.8

the nvr, i dont use nvr so i can't comment

Seems decent, They compensated bad sensor with IR on that colorvu. It was 1/1.2 now its 1/1.8 but its decent yes
