The app also allows you to link your Lorex cameras to smart home platforms like Google Assistant † and Amazon Alexa.
The apps aren't too different from the competition like Reolink, YI, and Night Owl, but we found the Lorex Home app easy to use in our testing. Mobile app: Most Lorex cameras use a Wi-Fi network or Ethernet cable to connect to the internet, where you can control them with various Lorex apps. It's certainly better than the 33-foot maximum on some cheap security cameras like YI and Wyze, which is good for indoor recording and smaller yards, but not for large properties. While the range depends on the model, we didn't find anything lower than 33 feet while wired multi-camera models regularly exceed 100 feet of night vision range. Night vision: Most Lorex cameras come with powerful night vision. To further build upon Lorex's storage dominance, most of its multi-camera DVRs include at least 1 TB of storage, with many models offering up to 8 TB.
For comparison, brands like Eufy and Reolink top out at 128 GB while Wyze and YI max out at 32 GB of microSD storage. Large storage capacity: Lorex isn't unique for relying on local storage, but it stands out for allowing massive 256 GB microSD cards in its Wi-Fi camera models. This adds a nice layer of privacy that cloud-centric brands like Nest and Ring can't match. The lack of cloud storage means your video footage never traverses the internet without you choosing to view videos in the Lorex app. Local storage: Lorex is noteworthy for not offering cloud video storage subscriptions and including storage media (microSD cards or hard drives) with every camera it sells.
