One additional point some may want to consider is that Ezviz apparently is a subsidiary of the Chinese surveillance company Hikvision which is partially state-owned and works on government projects.
This video was exactly what I was looking for. I'm migrating from several Wyze cameras and had been recommended EZVIZ but had no experience. I think this is going to be perfect for our front porch. Thanks so much for the awesome and informative review!
The Lechange/Imou (Dahua) IPC-C26E is the direct competitor of this camera. The C26E has ONVIF and a speaker but only WIFI. In my opinion it is the better camera.
If I could like this more than once, I would! Need a replacement power supply for a camera I have wires hidden out of sight following building work. I watched this video before buying them too. Thanks man. This video is the gift that keeps on giving 🎉
How does this compare to reolink wifi cameras? Reolink rlc-410w is 2k and has almost the same features if I am not wrong. Please compare more wired wifi cameras if possible. Really appreciate the great reviews.
Thank for the video , I just wanted to ask, should infrared red lights be turned on ,i mean are they visible , because in my camera i don't see any red lights, and the night vision in this camera its vary bad,
I've been trying to pickup 2 of their 1080p indoor cameras, and I want to add in this camera where I have an outdoor outlet for power. I say trying because a local retailer had the indoor cameras and some microSD cards on sale, and i ordered them a month ago. They originally told me ONLY the sd cards were on back order so woth a lot of back and forth, we agreed to cancel the cards and they'll send me the cameras. Immediately after that was settled, they now said both items are in back order. They already charged my credit card FFS.
@@ericqualley6764 I think as long as the write speed is able to keep up so you'll need maybe a class 10 or so. My experience with dashcam has me maintaining a degree of loyalty with Samsung, so far they've struck a good balance between price, performance, and longevity. I've had Lexar and Sandisk both die in less then a year of use.
ezviz is hikvision which is a very professional security company for government and companies.. I had a ezviz and i liked it but i had to return it cause i had no where to plug it in outside.. quality is good on camera but they need two things to make it better.. POE and sound with two way talk..
If the power plug isn’t weatherproof what are you supposed to do, run it through to the inside of your home? I have outlets on the underside of my porch but are susceptible to weather...
I’ve got ezviz cameras inside and outside my house there really good and was thinking of getting the new ezviz doorbell when it comes out to go along with the ezviz cameras.
What do you do when the router is in the living room and you need a camera in the driveway? Buy an additional router? I never see you addressing that during your videos
I have a mesh system now..but I used to have range extenders which worked ok too. You do need range extenders if you only have one router/wifi access point.
Hi, I love your reviews!! I am looking for a wireless battery operated camera as I can not install wires through my walls. What is the best battery operated camera please?
does the "Smart night vision" will also automatic turn off the light and be back in "Black in White? i want a feature that automatic on or off the light 😢 does the "color night vision" will automatically turn of the light at day time?
Does it also detect windy motion like moving trees and send fake notifications? I am looking for a camera which only notify If there is someone actually not on every moving object.
Ok, so your video was spot on in explanation but im running into a issue, every time i try to connect the cam via the app the signal dies then reconnects then dies again, im not sure if its the router or the cam that is at fault...any thoughts on this?
Great review, really nice and detailed. I am not sure either to buy this camera or the Cacagoo outdoor camera 1080p. Having a hard time deciding. Would you be able to please help me here. Also, have you reviewed the cacagoo outdoor cam? Thanks Sam
I’m having a hard time making a decision on which camera to get my house is 200 feet from my Barn I have electricity I have chickens turkeys and hogs and I want to keep an eye on predators which camera would you prefer I just don’t wanna make the wrong choice thank you so much for your time making these videos
What's the point of the ethernet connector if it can be set up via wifi? I want to drill a small hole to run the weatherproof cable through but the ethernet connector just adds bulk. Can it just be cut off and the cable end glued up to seal?
I wanted to know this exact same thing, I've been looking everywhere for videos of people installing these cameras but can't find nothing on what people are doing about the unwanted ethernet cable, like can it be left outside or have I got to some how make a hole big enough for it to come in house
Can we set like it should be keep recording motion activities but don't send notifications on app. I need this setting just for a single camera, for others I need notifications as well.
Does this stream via RTSP? I've one Ezviz cam pointing to the street with RTSP and connected to OBS. I'm planning to buy this one for the stairs and our main door. Thanks in advance.
Just installed three eufy pro 2k cameras, was really considering ezviz C3X. Not sure if I made the right choice with eufy. Only been running two days so far, maybe I should return. Eufy quality is decent but a few quirks. I'm sure they all have pros/cons. The quality of the B&W night vision on these ezviz cameras look better than the higher resolution 2K eufy's even without the help of the spotlight. I have a feeling eufy will have more frequent updates due to a larger market of customers but I may be wrong?
Hi Sir, In Event recording settings of this camera how many seconds delay before it record the motion event to the SD Card? Is it delay or advance recording, like Imou Bullet?
I just installed mine and I like it but I don't know how to enable notifications when it detects an object. I can't find the setting in the app. I do have notifications turned on for the app on my phone.
I have this exact camera and the alarm notification is way to quite totally useless Is there a way to set this so a siren is set off inside the home when motion is detected?
I need a camera that records audio and video with motion detection and no bright beam lights that come on. Just night vision motion detection, that also works in daytime, but no lights coming on. Recording audio is essential. Will this camera do the job?
High there, I’d like to ask about ezviz C3N. I use it as a mobile camera in deferent workshops and each time I unplug the camera it loses it time settings! Is there a solution? since such camera should have a built in small batter to keep the time setting. Thank you
Has Any one cut off and removed the Ethernet port from the main cable coming out of the camera to allow for easier set up if for example drilling through a wall to thread the power cable into?
Amazing video ! But I have 2 questions: - If the plug is not weather proof and it's an outside camera, how do we plug it ?? - Also, if I don't want to pay for subscription and I put an Sd card, can I just go on the app and visualize the recorded footage on the sd through the Wifi ??
I'm having a problem getting the cameras back on line. I know the directions say push the reset button for 5 or 10 seconds, but it's 40 feet up on an eve over looking the drive. A real problem to push the reset button ?
I don't want to pay any cloud subscription and I don't plan to buy a recorder. Can I use my computer's drive as a recorder? If not, can I watch footage from SD in app or do I need to remove SD card from the camera? Btw. The fact that the SD reset button is easily accessible from outside is just stupid.
How do l erase the videos l don't want to keep? Also l am having a problem with the camera having false alarms, coming on when nothing's happening, regardless of what sensitivity it is set on. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Is there a way to disable PQ feature? The feature autodim infrared, if there is any object nearby. I have an object near to my camera ,so it's always dim
Is the H265 video compression setting accessible in the app? I saw another on-line reviewer state that the camera does not come with H265 setting as default and only the Windows app has access to the setting?
The fact that you can do 24/7 recording to an sd card was enough for me to get one
Como lo hiciste ?
How many hours of recoding is available per GB.
This is what a review video should look like. Great job
C3X is still on my list when I am ready for another wi-fi camera.
Yes.. it is a pretty good camera.
Your reviews are easy to understand and thorough. Thanks.
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Do these come in wireless mode?
One additional point some may want to consider is that Ezviz apparently is a subsidiary of the Chinese surveillance company Hikvision which is partially state-owned and works on government projects.

hi, Do you have a summary about what is different among C3N, C3WN C3X etc?
Your review format is excellent,,, keep up the great job.....Subscribed!!!
Do you know if it works as an IP camera with other recording softwares such as contacam f.e.
excellent review and test , congrats
Great review, thanks for being so thorough!
No speaker is a real bummer, BUT, it's still a great camera for the price. Right now it's $39.99 at best buy. I'm getting another one!

Great video bro. Have a query- Does the human shape detection work at night? Doesn't seem to work in my case...
Great review! I’m curious, you have a testing area to mount these cameras for review, which ones have earned a permanent spot around your home?
Awesome upgrade to my Blink system
this is the best review i ever watch

Hi, I love your reviews!! I am looking for a wireless battery operated camera as I can not install wires through my walls.
What is the best battery operated camera please?
Thanks for the video. Does it break up the recording into smaller files of 1 minute or 1 hour each?
does the "Smart night vision" will also automatic turn off the light and be back in "Black in White? i want a feature that automatic on or off the light 😢
does the "color night vision" will automatically turn of the light at day time?
Thx to you I brought a camera
I’m about to as well. The price is great
Does it also detect windy motion like moving trees and send fake notifications? I am looking for a camera which only notify If there is someone actually not on every moving object.
A lot of security cameras now including this one has AI person detection. The issue of false notifications from swaying trees are now gone.
Thanks for the reviews It does help me to buy what I need
Thanks for your tutorial, it was very useful for me.
please review ezviz wifi Vault NVR and it's range .please
I have to check it out. Thanks.
Ok, so your video was spot on in explanation but im running into a issue, every time i try to connect the cam via the app the signal dies then reconnects then dies again, im not sure if its the router or the cam that is at fault...any thoughts on this?
Might be the connection on your phone too.. make sure you have adequate signal.
Good video, very informative. Thanks for posting.

Gracias por la reseña. Saludos desde México 🇲🇽
Such detailed and professional review. 👍
Nice outdoor cam !
good review. Does the camera keep recording to the SIM card and loop all the time or does that recording need to be turned on? thanks!
Great review, really nice and detailed. I am not sure either to buy this camera or the Cacagoo outdoor camera 1080p. Having a hard time deciding. Would you be able to please help me here. Also, have you reviewed the cacagoo outdoor cam? Thanks Sam
Very good explanation, thank you.
Mine was able to detect at 40 feet or maybe even more and at night using medium sensitivity at all areas!
Thank you.
You're welcome!
we need a static ip from the isp? or is working anyway
Nope you don’t…just set it up in the app and you don’t need anything changed in your router.

why are there 2 lenses in the specification? 2.8mm and 4mm?
Hi I'm just asking if I power over the 12 volt connection can I cut off the POE wire if I'm not going to be using
Will I be able to download from the micro card to my PC? I don't want to use the cloud.
Is this a 24/7 cam?
looks like a great improvement over c6. A ptz and POE version would be perfect.
Can we set like it should be keep recording motion activities but don't send notifications on app. I need this setting just for a single camera, for others I need notifications as well.

Both of them are good cameras.. but if you have a choice of wired vs battery.. go with wired first.. they are better.
Tanks for rev!!
Thank you.
Hi Sir, In Event recording settings of this camera how many seconds delay before it record the motion event to the SD Card? Is it delay or advance recording, like Imou Bullet?
It has a 10s buffer before motion detection.
Sorry this is Camera C3N Ezvis, Have AP Mode..Acces Point from Unit Camera to Hand Phone Via Wifi..?? If Yes, How Long Distance..?? Thx.
I just installed mine and I like it but I don't know how to enable notifications when it detects an object. I can't find the setting in the app. I do have notifications turned on for the app on my phone.
Great review.
If the power cut off and turn back on do you need to paired it again ?
No you don't. it would automatically
I have sd cards installed. How do I delete some video and how do I transfer the video to the computer. Thanks for the review.
Do the spotlights have to be on for night time colour ?? Can you turn them off or would that just give you black and white?
great video.thanks
assume i can playback 4x8,16x of normal speed ? Good vdo. in spite of app control
I have this exact camera and the alarm notification is way to quite totally useless
Is there a way to set this so a siren is set off inside the home when motion is detected?

It looks like you can. He showed us the screen where you can check the status of your sd card, and it looked like you can view your footage on it
Hey! If eufycam is the best battery cam pick... what’s your wired cam favourite..?
Wired.. I'll go with Ring's Floodlight and Spotlight Cam Wired.. and next will be the EZVIZ C3X.

If i connect this camera to an NVR, can i still use the motion and notification features of this camera?
I don't want to pay any cloud subscription and I don't plan to buy a recorder. Can I use my computer's drive as a recorder? If not, can I watch footage from SD in app or do I need to remove SD card from the camera? Btw. The fact that the SD reset button is easily accessible from outside is just stupid.
can you get these cords to be waterproof outdoors
Late answer but yes, it does come with a waterprotecting package for the camera
If I got it right, it can record only if it detects a human being. If so, how long can it keep the recording on the SD card?
Is there an option to only record if something is hapening in front of the camera? Or is it only all day or off?
Once its spot light is on it does mot get off even with status of light is set off. Any tip?
can i bind this to my phone remotely? the camera is in d philippines while my phone is in another country, can i still bind it?
I want to store continuous video feed to an external storage. Is it possible on this camera ?
