    Impressive night abilities! Some of those on a POE system would be nice. Even adding to an existing system wouldn’t be bad. 4K in that would be a new standard for the best system.

    Great review. Good camera with perfect picture for day record and night especially, 25fps makes it more crisp. For those who worry about privacy the problem will be producer - HIKVision - China state owned company. I hope one day Ring will be able make same video quality for its products.

    If only Reolink had the detection range like this cam. I am really impressed with this unit. And again thank for making the best cam reviews out there.

    • @LifeHackster
      @LifeHackster  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I know..but they will be limited to around 30 feet because of the PIR sensor.... (for their WiFi cameras)

    • @Smokey00
      @Smokey00 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      My reolink lumus can detect stuff super far away because it has pixel detection.

    • @LifeHackster
      @LifeHackster  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ace - it is PIR..unless it uses both..it has the half dome sensor in the front..

    • @Smokey00
      @Smokey00 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@LifeHackster yes it uses both sometime it will detect my neighbor walking out or her door across the street. I had to set up a zone to block the area. I remember when you made the video about it, yours was not working at the time but it has been fixed. The only issue I'm having with Reolink is it's not getting notifications unless I unlock my phone.

  • @Rumouruk
    @Rumouruk 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great review. I have just ordered three for my home. I already have the indoor Eziviz C1 and although it is only 720p, the picture quality is good. I looked at Ring and Google cameras, but failings on both of those. Both require a subscription to record, these Ezviz record locally and I can download from the card and reformat in the cam. Looked at the Arlo 4K, battery life is abysmal! (Ring are no better!) If these are only half as good as the reviews I have read, they will more than fit the bill.

  • @marcellajohnson5532
    @marcellajohnson5532 3 ปีที่แล้ว

Based on this review I have found the camera that will satisfy my needs in a security camera to monitor my driveway. Thank You!!!

  • @allenmartin9900
    @allenmartin9900 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    A couple of years ago we had a broken trail cam that had blackout leds so I was curious as when I took the camera apart all it had was tint similar to thick window tint covering the infrared leds. I thought they worked at a different light spectrum or something. I wonder if it’s that simple. Great Channel and information.

    Thanks man for the most complete review of this camera. It helped me a lot to decide on buying this specific model as my new cctv camera.
    Just one question.
    How did you configured it to beep (sound) x1 when human is detected and continuously illuminate without flashing? I would like to set up as you.

  • @WaynesWorldStudioVancouver
    @WaynesWorldStudioVancouver 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Came across your review and I would say you can do it way better by editing what people need to see first. A hook I would say, introduction the video quality of the camera first before giving all the spec. I have to skip all the unboxing first before getting to see what the camera can do for me! Most people might be turned off because of the spec and skip the video. Btw, move that stupid light beside you, I have no idea why so many bloggers are doing this, it is painful to watch the light as the composition drawing the eyes toward the light. Watch the video and see for yourself, just it looks cool doesn’t mean it works for the audiences. If you like to keep the light, have dimmer switch to lower the power that doesn’t hurt the eyes! Thank you for the review bro!

    Excellent video. I am debating whether to buy this one, but at you say, 2k or 4k would be nicer. Since this video is two years old, I am guessing they must be bringing out a 2k version soon?. I already have 2 Exviz camera inside my house and love their simplicity and all at the low cost I paid.

  • @Carlas22752
    @Carlas22752 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi, will you be able to completely disable the spotlight camera and only keep the night vision LEDs? Also did it detect bugs that was flying past? My current cam picks up even the smallest bugs with only LED lights that they seem drawn to so I'm getting constant notifications and recordings of bugs :(

  • @Jurgentaur
    @Jurgentaur 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hi,is the human motion detection the same at night..my camera detects me at about 15 meters,beyond that the motion detection falls away..can move around and even move in front of a light and the camera does not detect me,camera is up to date..👍

  • @tonyn152
    @tonyn152 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Thank you so much for all of your reviews! I just bought and installed 2 Victure cameras and the motion detection is horrible. All they do is alert me to cars going past my house and insects at night, even on the lowest sensitivity settings. They are so busy recording cars, birds, etc. that they totally miss people coming up to the house, so I will be uninstalling and sending these back. I have been searching for a different camera that I can lower the sensitivity or adjust zones to not record background motion, and only want alerts for people by the front door or in the driveway. Since you have had this camera for around a month now, are you still happy with it? Do you think the zone and human detection features would fit my needs for an outdoor wired camera to only detect people by the house and not background motion in the distance? If you have any better camera suggestions for me, please let me know. Thanks again for all of your hard work putting these reviews together!

    • @LifeHackster

    hi does the camera itself needs to be connected to wifi network at all times? or just once during initial setup? i ask because my dad wants to have one like this installed at home in india before he goes overseas for few months but issue is the house is in a sort of remote location and the network he has at home is metered and unstable dropping connections etc.

  • @EbendeLangeIsAwesome
    @EbendeLangeIsAwesome 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's a pity that it looks like they changed the tone sound ("Soft" alarm) to a voice that says "secure area - please leave immediately".
    I looked forward to the tone notifying me that somebody is waiting at my gate - without chasing them away!
    Any way to get it back?

    Very informative, as all your reviews. Thanks! It looks like the field angle is too short compared to other cameras you have reviewed though. The price is just right for me.
