Very good quality for the money easy to install and app is good motion detection is really good and lets you know when someone is on the property. night vision is also good. cannot connect them to Alexa

I've just installed this 3k c8c camera replacing an older hikvision camera. I am in the UK and did not get paid to write this. Given I'm the first UK review this model seems to have only just been made available here. It was on offer when I bought it. First the bad. The quality of the case while ok is not the same quality if plastic of the old hikvision camera. The mounting bracket is just adequate if the camera is up high but if anyone can reach it it can be stolen in a second from the supplied quick release bracket. The good. Simplicity itself to setup. No web interface like the old hikvision all done in the app. No need to sign up to pay for cloud storage if you are happy installing an SD card. Human detection seems to work and it tracks me around. Keep in mind this is human detection though not face detection/recognition. Same for cars. Detects cars but doesn't record number plates as data. Picture quality is very good in daylight. At night it's about the same as my old high end hikvision (which had nicha LEDs). I leave it in smart mode overnight. It sits in IR mode and turns on it's (warm) white lights to record in colour when it detects Human/car. Camera has one way or two way sound and a reasonably loud alarm that can be set off on detection or manually triggered. Camera comes with waterproofing connector for an ethernet cable if required and comes with an extension cable for the barrel cable for the power. I assume you'd need to inject and split if you wanted POE but I don't need it in this location so not tried. It occasionally records the odd bug fly by even though it only has human/car AI and not area/line crossing detection enabled but far less than the hikvision did.

Fantastic CCTV camera. Thought we would get one for peace of mind and came across this camera for a very good price of £40 (on an offer). It was very easy to install and the picture quality is excellent, don’t need to pay for a subscription we bought a micro SD card to put into ours so have plenty of storage, connects to WiFi no bother. Nigh vision is great and the tracking is also excellent. Only thing I can’t seem to find though is how to reduce the range of its tracking, we got a ton of notifications whenever someone walks past the house but that’s the only thing I can’t seem to figure out

Updated for 2026 - with a few more cams (a 4k C8C, and a few more 3k C8Cs) I got fed up of the wifi dropping out on the cameras even with wifi extenders, at least half of the cams a day would be unreachable. So i put most of my cameras on ethernet cables (4 port switches are cheap enough) - and the difference is night and day. no more random dropouts, no more lag, straight to the camera i want to view - and downloading footage is MUCH faster now. Bonus of ethernet: RTSP now works through VLC/etc. i also turned the auto-tracking off and set them to a fixed view, as tracking makes things blurry. so I will up the review to 4 stars, but not 5...as they are supposed to be wifi orientated. older review below still stands: I own multiple EZVIZ Cameras (see picture) PROS: -Super value -easy to connect -yes, there is a PC app - check their website out. -if your technically minded, you can tweak the advanced options (hidden) through the PC app -SD card slot for recording, so the subscription is optional. -the new (this one) 360* cam actually has decent Human Tracking. -the phone app is ok. CONS: -The wifi signal on most of their cameras is weak ("camera offline") -The PC app hasn't been updated since 2016 (and wont be, according to EZVIZ in 2026) -customer support level = china -no Unix/Linux support, even though the phone app is Android(linux) (can work with Wine in 2026) -sometimes, all day recording/a full card can brick itself (this still happens - tested in 2026) -"colour night vision" and "starlight night vision" is a scam. it requires the lamp to be on = not night vision. all-in-all im currently happy with my Cameras and the new one (this one) rounds out my security needs nicely. i give it 3 stars, mainly for the POOR wifi.

good quality item, look good on my wall, good colour night vision, and a bright spot light function. id buy again, Only thing to watch out for is the type of Micro SD card you purchase.. i bought a 512 GB U3, it will not format. you need a class 10 U1 micro SD apparently which is on its way.

* EDIT 6.1.26* Had to move the camera last night and the pan/tilt became what I can only describe as possessed, wouldn’t move properly at all, today trying to find needed footage has been futile, it wouldn’t load and failed at every attempt. Looking for a new one today! It’s a good quality picture day and night but the video playback is very temperamental, it fails more than it actually works which is really frustrating when you actually need the footage to play and it won’t. I think we will be replacing it again with something better soon.

Have not installed the camera yet, but picture quality seems good. The main issue I have is that a waterproof housing is supplied for the ethernet connector, but no housing or seal for the power connection which is in the same position. Contacted the manufacturer and they have advised to place the power connector out of the rain, this is very difficult with such a short cable..... not a good start for an outdoor camera. Having to spend another £5 on amalgamating tape to seal this connector. Tapo provide a seal with their camera for the power cable, don't know why Ezviz can't do the same. Also, there is no way to seal the ethernet port if it is not being used, some serious flaws here. Update after 1 week: Lost another star as privacy areas can't be set. Camera detects movement, and follows the movement (bird, cat) over into the neighbour's yard. I now have a tracking camera with the tracking/panning disabled to avoid issues with my neighbour's.

Needs a good WiFi signal to get a solid connection.

kwaliteit is minder dan wat ik verwachtte. H8 met 2MB heeft betere kwaliteit. Sommige opties van EZVIZ app zoals berichtmelding werken niet. Servicedesk is prima. Ik zou gaan voor TP-Link

この度購入して 大変良かったです〜❗️ 建物周囲を監視してくれて 異変のあった時に 撮影されてスマホにそのまま転送されんので 便利で助かってます 操作がスマホで出来るのが本当に喜んでいます〜❗️ 良い物が買えたと思います。 他の人にも進めたくなります。
