Ubiquiti UniFi G5 Pro vs AI Pro

Ubiquiti recently launched two new cameras, the G5 Pro and the AI Pro. Both are pretty similar, so we’ll take a look at them to see which is worth buying. The G5 Pro was in the EA store for a while, up until Ubiquiti removed the EA Store all together. The AI Pro is a much newer device, nothing was known about it prior to the launch and it does […]

Ubiquiti UniFi G4 Pro vs G5 Pro

The new G5 Pro has gone on sale this week, and seems to offer pretty much all the same features as the G4 Pro all while costing less. The new camera uses the same 8MP sensor running at a 4K resolution, but thanks to significant improvements to low light image quality, it will likely perform better than the G4 Pro. A new accessory has been added, which connects to the […]

Ubiquiti UniFi G3 Flex vs G5 Flex

The new G5 Flex came out a few months ago and it replaces the older G3 Flex. During the launch of the G4 line of cameras, Ubiquiti never updated the Flex camera so it has skipped a generation. Unlike the G5 Bullet, the G5 Flex isn’t cheaper than the outgoing model, but it does have a pretty much identical design. The new Ubiquiti logo has been used here and moved […]

The new camera comes in at a lower price point than the G4 Bullet and is a cheaper feeling camera in the hand. While the G4 Bullet is an all-metal construction, the G5 Bullet goes back to the G3 Bullet style, being […]

London TfL: Oyster Card vs Contactless

When it comes to public transport systems, the Transport for London (TfL) is pretty much the gold standard, the main reason for that it because it is government run and not a bunch of privatised companies, which is pretty much the case foe the rest of the country. The main benefit of TfL is the consistency across the network, whether that be buses, boats, cable cars, trains and the famous […]

Ubiquiti UniFi Protect Product Line Guide 2022

Early last year, we published the 2021 edition of the UniFi Protect Product Line Guide and in the nearly two years since then, the UniFi Protect product line has changed quite a lot. First of all, a new larger UNVR was launched, in the form of the UNVR Pro which has seven bays, as well as a small 1.3-inch LCM screen. Many new cameras have been launched, including the AI […]
