Works well! Picture is great on the camera, the alerts are good and the ability to customise alerts/times to alert etc is great.
The battery powered cameras provide an easy install option. The cameras sometimes required a couple of attempts to link with the base station but set up was easy. One camera had to be moved closer to the router and base station as it lost the wifi connection. The movement detection is excellent and has reliably picked up only human figures. In summary it fulfilled our needs for a wifi system and the battery powered cameras make installation a lot easie
I was looking for a cctv security system and was tied between wired and wireless.
After much trawling of You Tube I went for the Ezviz x3 camera BC1 wireless system.
I put the cameras on charge and having charged x3 of them up , was ready to site them and the base station.
Two things you will need that do not come with the kit are a decent sd card and a an ethernet cable to connect to the router.
Top be fair most of us have one or both of these items knocking around the home somewhere
Set up was easy the cameras do what they should do and the only thing that is taking me a while to get used to is the software which like many reviewers I feel could benefit from a more comprehensive user guide.
As part of the Hikvison group I think he build quality is tip top and I have order the doorbell (wireless) and maybe an extra camera ( making x4 in total) to complete the system.
So much choic3e out there and I can only speak as I find.
They are doing what I want at a price I can afford.
Sure there are lots more whizzy systems out there but I didn’t fancy paying north of a grand for them to be fitted.

I just setup the cameras today, all good up to now, really good image quality, the sensor works fine.
I just need to know when I will need to charge the batteries, I’ll see how long the batteries will last, they came with 45% each.
Very good for my point of view. Excellent camera and very good night Vision.. the battery look good at moment.
Great set up, wide variety of uses. Good build quality and if battery life lives up to quoted life that will be great. Using 2 cameras for security and one for wildlife, win win. Also able to share with family up country, bonus.
Base Unit in my opinion is in need of improvement to get far better WiFi signals than at present. The problem is not with my home WiFi router because at the same time I bought the EXVIZ3 I also bought an iGeek ZS-GX5 camera from Amazon which receives a far better WiFi signal 30m+ outside mounted on the back garden shed which gives an excellent HD quality pictures and it was half the price too and still uses a high capacity Li-on battery and no wiring!
I just hope EZVIZ will sort out this useless WIFI Base Unit that is pretty much ineffective
Purchased this product as I have cloud subscription with Ezviz. I had 2 older cameras. This product was straight forward to set up, but I could not add them to my cloud subscription. Initially I e mailed. No response. Then I called. They could not assist. Then I called again and they still cannot resolve. Technical support is non existent here. Very disappointing.
Subsequently Ezviz contacted me and resolved the issue. Changing my rating as a result.
Night vision excellent, picturr wulaity great, app to operate responsive. Really a very excellent item, although havent managed to get motion and noise detection to work as yet. Still, great item to have
Infra red works perfectly (as proved in the pitch dark of the loft). Motion detection works. It detected the odd moth or possibly dust particle blowing through the loft.
Picture quality is good, far better than a similar camera I bought a few years back.
I had to tape it to a Mic stand . I can’t think of another camera that I have had that has not had a standard socket in the base which would allow it to mounted on a camera stand. The last similar camera that I had could be screwed onto a mic stand.
I bought the Eviz and a heimvision camera at the same time. Both cameras require registering an e-mail address for a remote viewing service. I’m not aware of using my e-mail address elsewhere in the couple of weeks after that but within a day or two after registering for the two services. I started to be inundated with junk e-mails. Several hundred per week which has been going on for several months now without sign of let up. I’m not sure if either sevice is to blame but it’s a curious coincidence.
Fantastic product. Can’t recommend enough. We use it to keep an eye on our Dog during the day and we’ve found it amazing. So easy to use & set up
Use this to keep and eye on my dog while I’m out. Does a great job!
The app is easy to set up and use. I would recommend EZVIZ to everyone, I use their floodlight security cam too, great products at a affordable price.
Ended up being a lot better than I thought, clear quality visuals.
The night vision is super clear and the sensitivity of the motion sensor can be adjusted
We used this more to monitor my mum who has severe dementia. Sound quality not great but the privacy and ability to move camera remotely are excellent features.
Does what it needs to do. Easy to setup. Great phone app and desktop application.
The EZVIZ is a very good security camera and is very easy to install.
Delighted with this camera, we are struggling to get a second phone connected to this camera and need help
Keep saying confirm with e-mail which is not our ???
It’s brilliant,I can see my partner having secret munchies at night when I go bed. It’s very clear.
Great quality video and night vision. Good audio and speakers. Highly recommend this camera. 5 .
I’d always held off getting a camera as I am not in a position to be able to secure an outdoor one to the outside of my flat and had read a lot of reviews saying that cameras sited indoors, pointing through windows were prone to poor imaging due to reflections. I took the plunge with this cam as it had excellent reviews an a couple of them specifically mentioned that it worked as a ‘view through window’ camera. I’ve now had it 24 hours and can safely say i am MORE than impressed.
The image quality at Ultra Hi Def is EXCELLENT, there are 3 other settings below that and all but the ‘basic’ are fairly good. The motorised movement is silent and the mic/speaker thing is fine – you’re never going to get broadcast quality, but it does the job. There is about a one second delay on images and sounds.
In terms of linking this to devices to view i have easily created the following viewing links
– phone/tablet via Android
– windows PC via the EZVIZ website and their’ EZVIZ Studio/Windows support software
– mirrored my tablet/phone screen to my google home display and my TV
Of these if find that the windows/EZVIZ studio and the Google home display are brilliant. My Google Home display sits on my desk under my pc, so i can keep an eye on the outside from my workdesk. I can also have the EZVIZ studio running and minimised on my PC if i want and then simply click it to bring up the view. Living in a flat where it takes about 20 seconds to get from my desk to the front door, it means I can often find couriers walking away if they have no patience. I can also miss them if i have headphones on. This way I can get a bit of warning if someone is approaching and also see if it is a cold caller or someone i need to open the door to. I’ll also be able to keep a record of which couriers actually came to the door and what they did with the parcels – bizarre as it may seem the person who delivered the camera actually dropped it at the wrong house and left me their package instead. Had i had this cam set up then, all that would have been captured!
Some things I have noticed:
The closer you place the lens to the window, the less reflection you’ll get. Having the lens right up against the window doesn’t seem to inhibit the ability to move pan/scan. I have a blind behind the cam which might help reduce reflections from the room. In some light conditions i can see a slight reflection of the blind on one side of the image as i don’t have the cam pointing directly at the window – due to the angle of the area i need to view the cam has to be slightly inclined down. The reflection doesn’t really impact the view though and is only partially visible in some lights.
The window my cam points out of gets direct sunlight in the afternoon. This does compromise the image quality somewhat, but it would with any cam. In cloudier weather it is perfect still. Even in the bright sunlight i still found the image quality to be acceptable.
At night, the area outside the window is fairly well lit with street lights, so i have found that the night view is as good as the day view – still in colour and it does not need the IR lights to be on. In fact, having tried it with and without IR, i found that the IR lights did cause the dreaded blur/reflection. If you wish to use this cam out of a window at night then I think if you have a relatively well lit area you’ll be able to get a good image. If you are pointing it at a parked car and you have a security light which turns on when someone approaches, then coupled with the ‘motion detector’ feature, i reckon this cam would be quite fine without the IR switched on as the light would compensate and you’d be able to see the action quite well.
All-in-all this cam seems perfect for what i wanted it for – the ability to monitor what is going on in the busyish area in front of my front door while I am sitting in the back of the flat working. I can monitor who is at the door without leaving my desk. as I get more used to it i’ll try some of the other features, but for now, having the ‘live’ feed’ is exactly what i need.
Awesome camera, its small enough to be discreet and the picture quality during the day in colour and B/W in night vision is one of the best I have used. I highly recommend this product and company and bought another camera in white, doorbell camera and outdoor spotlight camera too. Don’t waste your time or money on any other camera make as this is by far the best camera you could have in your home and will not be disappointed.
The camera arrived and from first impressions of the box it looks expensive and quality. The camera itself feel good quality and is fairly heavy in weight so it keeps itself in place easily. The camera was really easy to install with voice prompts along the way.
PC and smartphone software is great. All features available and nice to be able to monitor continuously from a PC!
Sound and video quality is very good, night mode is excellent – it’s like a light is on in the room! Ability to talk to anyone in the room is fun as well.
This is perfect for my needs!
I’m rather impressed with the product. This product is super easy to set up. The night vision quality is outstanding, I would say its better than the normal quality. I would recommend this product for internal use. The only criticism I have is that the black camera is supplied with a white wire and plug which somewhat goes against the idea of having a black camera. Other than that I would recommend this product.
This is a great device and perfect for my needs. I have it pointing out of a window at a gate and outbuilding entrance. It triggers and records when ever I have a visitor and the live feed is great too.
The only draw back is night vision won’t work through the glass window, but my security lights still make it functional (when triggered).
Picture quality is satisfactory, but i think it could be better.
It only took 10 minutes to set up and I was happy enough with camera that I bought a second Ezviz (external) camera to keep an eye on my car.
N.b. I use a Samsung Note10 Plus to receive images.
We got an EzViz which allowed is to keep an eye on the cats when we’re out, we’ve since moved to a bigger home and wanted one in the bedroom as well as the living room. A combination of discounts and a voucher meant we paid just 15 for this and it’s superb, pairs quickly and easily and was a doddle to get up and running. Device is good quality and you’ll pay much more than it’s face value for much more sub-standard cameras. Excellent product.
Great product great value, two way microphone is good. Would highly recommend!
Very good so far very happy with it we use it as a baby monitor. Picture quality is very good daytime, nighttime vision and two way speaker very good also mobile app not bad either. Got it connected to our Google home hub.
Setup was quick and easy.
The image quality is very good and it tracks round so you don’t miss any footage.
Even works on Alexa so able to view it around the house.
Only been up and running for a few days appears to be an excellent camera . Time will tell if it remains so .
The picture quality is brilliant, just make sure to choose ‘ultra HD’ in the app to see full quality.
The Micro Sd card slot is a little hidden, it’s below the camera lense you. Might need to push the lense up find it. This si shown in the instructions.
I will be busying another.
This is the second camera I’ve put in doors this one is far more responsive than the other one and the motion detection is brillia
All aspects of the camera are excellent.
It’s no exaggeration for me to say that I am delighted with the camera: the combination of product build quality, ease of set-up, functionality (Pan/Tilt, motion tracking, user notification, recording, wireless capability etc.) and the associated iOS/PC apps represent tremendous value for money. Since I’ve set it up it’s worked consistently with no issues – giving very clear pictures. The Pan/Tilt facility is great for a camera of this price. The motion tracking works extremely well and the ability to set an alarm notification schedule (as well as 24/7 notification) is very useful should you want the additional security it provides when still in your home (e.g. at night).
For a very affordable price you could have quite a comprehensive configuration when used, say, in combination with the EzViz external cameras.
From my experience, I have no hesitation in recommending this security camera to other homeowners. If you’ve been thinking about getting one, then delay no longer!
