Lawrence Systems, an IT/Security installer, posted a video to their Youtube (embedded below) discussing failure rates on cameras they've installed from 2018 to 2022.

I'm not particularly surprised by these numbers. We have seen Reolink cameras fail, as well, though we have had very few of them. We haven't touched much Amcrest, so I can't comment.
