I originally ordered 3 of the G3 Flex cameras and subsequently ordered one more. We’ll start with what I thought when I first laid eyes on the camera, first impressions count. Let’s get into the review and find out how good this entry level HD POE camera is. I think the price increase is in part due to them becoming increasingly difficult to get a hold of. I originally bought the G3 Flex camera about 12 months ago now and since then the price has gone up quite significantly. Choosing products by Ubiquiti, there’s a fairly strong chance they’ll continue operating for the foreseeable future. I’ve had several IP cameras in the past and they eventually become redundant or the company goes bust and then no further updates are added.
The reason I went for Ubiquiti equipment, aside from the fact it’s a self contained ecosystem, is that I wanted a security camera setup that was going to be continually updated and supported. Ubiquiti’s prosumer range of networking equipment fitted my needs perfectly, so here we are. I originally chose the G3 Flex because I was looking for an all in one system for my office networking needs a router, switch, access points and CCTV cameras. The main ones being that the Flex can be used indoors or outdoors and that the Flex gets it’s power and transmits data via ethernet cable. Unlike some the Google Pixel or Xiaomi's camera apps, Samsung's time-lapse videos do not let you select video recording speed.Now there are a a few key differences between the Flex and the Instant. "Hyperlapse" is Samsung's naming for time-lapse videos, and this is also a straight forward "tap shutter button to begin recording" affair. The higher the frame rate, the slower a video can get without appearing choppy. "Super" slow motion is captured at 960fps, while slow motion can do 240fps. There are two slow motion modes, "Super Slo-Mo" and just "Slow Motion." To be blunt, it was a bit pointless for Samsung to split these intwo two modes, as they do the same thing, just capturing at different frames per second. Samsung's approach doesn't differ from the tried and true process of "pressing the shutter button, then pan from left to right." "Panorama" is another long-standing camera mode that have been around for over a decade. But Samsung's automatic night mode works well enough 90% of the time. The only benefit of jumping to this mode specifically is you can increase the exposure time. This mode already kicks in automatically in the standard photography mode, so it's a bit redundant here. "Night" is, as you can guess, night mode. Samsung also offer a "Pro" shooting mode for more granular controls. It's nice to have these options, even in what is the most basic shooting mode. You can, if you choose, tap on the viewfinder to lock focus or exposure, or even dial exposure compensation higher or lower. If you're shooting in low light conditions, this mode will also automatically switch to "Night mode" for you.

Samsung's auto-focus is fast, and software intelligent enough to use HDR tricks to deal with shooting against harsh backlight. In this mode, you're supposed to just point the camera at something, tap the shutter button, and get a punchy, lively shot that's ready for Instagram. "Photo," is the default mode, and it's basically point-and-shoot mode. Samsung does a good job of not piling too many camera modes into the default pane, giving users only three core modes - "Photo," "Video," "Portrait" - with the rest bundled into a subsection under "More." This is all customizable, you can take some of those additional shooting modes out from "More" and place it into the default pane if you like.
