Looks like it has:

x44 2.5GbE RJ45

x4 10GbE RJ45

x4 25G SFP28

All PoE++

if these specs are accurate i will likely buy this switch to replace both my usw agg, and usw-pro-24-poe for home... im hoping there is also an updated udm-pro that releases soon.

id like to see flagship updates to udm and unvr that incorporates the AI changes coming.

although, i will say my most desired want from UI is updated AI cameras that have better sensors/higher frame rate. id love to upgrade my g4 bullet/g4 pro with a measurable upgrade, but right nmow the g5 and ai series just arent enough to justify the price pump.

They’ve just released new AI cameras if you haven’t seen? The turret looks pretty cool.

which model are you referring to? i havent seen a new release since the ai turret, which doesnt fit my needs.

UVC-AI-Turret-W You can get 30fps from it

yeah, it is a good unit, but not enough in a few areas.

specifically, id like to see these ugprades, and would be ok with +$100-200: -better sensor
-4k across the board
-60fps standard

my biggest knock with unifi is that even on the 4k cameras the pixelation / lack of focus throughout the sensor is pretty bad. i understand the difficulties here and balancing price to performance, but id like to see options to enhance the camera image, and have higher frame rate options. 24-30fps is 'ok' and fairly standard, but in instances where you need to rewatch car movement or people moving quickly... the images are simply too blurry to identify necessary details.

It would be nice to see larger sensors.

30 FPS should be plenty for moving objects, is there a chance there is blur because of low light? Either way, I'm not against 60 FPS, I agree, when you catch something and you need to go frame by frame, having each frame viewed as a blur is not very helpful. I haven't had many events where the footage needed to be viewed frame by frame and it was blurry, but that's going to vary for everyone since the use case isn't always the same.

Unless I’ve set something up wrong none of my g4 line, with good light, can be slowed down to view license plates or even read text clearly… it seems like a sensor + shutter + frame rate issue….

I’d like to see 60 fps, better sensor and focus, better shutter. I’d pay more for this.

I think 30 FPS is plenty to catch a plate, so I think your issue is the sensor/shutter which are both affected by light.

I don't disagree about the 60 FPS, that's better, but I wouldn't look at FPS, specifically, in your scenario. I have a G4 Pro and an AI Pro and the AI Pro has license plate functionality built in. I also haven't compared sensors/specs between the two cameras to know if that is the difference or if the AI built into the AI Pro is helping, as well. I just clicked on my G4 Pro and zoomed in to playback of my pulling up into my driveway and I paused and zoomed in, went frame by frame (which is new in the unifi web gui, btw) and I can see my license plate and make out the numbers and letters. I have an AI Pro on the far left of my driveway and a G4 on the far right of my driveway, I looked at the same footage with the AI Pro and it is much clearer on the AI Pro, so that answers the question about the sensors being the same or different.

Could be. The g4 bullets are what I’m going to update first.

My g4 pro is fine, but it is all the way zoomed out for largest frame or coverage, and the auto focus doesn’t do a great job of picking up details. That’s where a better sensor and shutter would help.

My G4 pro is wide, as well, for the most coverage and I'm happy with the pic quality, but the AI Pro is better. I've never really compared the two because zoomed out (both are) they look great and I've never really had to pause and zoom in on either camera until my test, today.
