The company I got the camera off have been excellent they said they would send a replacement one out but which I thank them very much but amazon don’t seem too be in a rush to send it so they are letting the side down what a pity
I had this camera (the 2MP model) back in April, but after 4-5 months it stopped working. Not god, obviously, but thanks to Amazon, return is a breeze. Strangely, Amazon did not seem to be offering the same or upgraded model, so I went for the JideTech version (they come in many bizarre names). The first two deliveries I rejected as the boxes were damaged. The third one didn’t have the PoE injector, and the fourth one simply could not connect to the HiSee app (and the instructions were wrong, on top of being in appalling English). Then this 5MP upgrade reappeared and at a lower price at than: 170 vs 200 for the rest. Connected straight away via cable, picked up by the mobile app, happy days.
All of these Chinese cameras look almost the same and the image quality is pretty amazing. The huge difference is in the software which for most is atrocious. SV3C are way ahead of the knock-off brands but still with plenty of scope for improvement. E.g. why no time lapse?
Before trying the JideTech four times I opted for Reolink from their website. It was obvious that a lot more thought had gone into the customer ‘experiennce’. Better instructions, quick connection, time-lapse function. However, at only 5x zoom the functionality was vastly inferior, plus the PC interface was not well thought out. Overall, the SV3C is the leas bad one from my experience. Pity they don;t offer it in a PoE version.
The camera is simple to install and set up. The image quality is excellent, and the camera even has an easy-to-understand intercom system. Theuser interface makes it simple to make changes. To save automatic snapshots, I inserted a 128GB SD card into the slot provided. There is also a WLAN function. I use the APPCamHi, which perfectly supports the camera. Excellent camera!
I own a lot of SV3C security cameras with varying features (I like the technology and peace of mind).
This camera comes in secure packaging as normal (see photo) with everything required for setup (excluding SD card). Before mounting, you first connect to your LAN via supplied cable to your router, and find the camera using LAN search of the CamHi app. Once found, change the password and setup the Wifi and you are good to go. The camera is a full metal body and the SD card is easily installed by unscrewing two screws and the typical push and click socket (See photo).
I bought this 5MP camera to replace an existing SV3C 720p camera, which I bought many years ago (see comparison photos). The new camera has far better resolution for a lower price … now!
The camera is above my Alarm Bell box, to prevent anyone tampering with it and therefore does not need features such as Pan/Tilt, optical zoom and focus.
The mounting method is simple but works using 2 adjustments via allen key (supplied). The mounting plate is screwed in place but you have to loosen bolts to allow access.
The new feature to this camera is there is a plastic cover over the screw holes (see photo), that provide a neater finish, at 12ft up it doesn’t bother me, others it may disagree. There are 3 screw holes, which are easy to drill holes for, I don’t use the supplied screws as they are of the softer variety and into brick you need some torque to mount.
The camera is monitored via the CamHi App, which I know well and find very easy to use. It supports 4 camera view mode which is a really useful feature for a quick update on areas.
Wifi connectivity was 82% as reported by the app (30ft away from router) with the single antenna, so no complaints there. I store triggered video’s on the SD card and have setup event recordings and notifications as this is an area with limited passing. Image quality in day (See photo) and night time is excellent as you would expect from a 5MP sensor and has excellent images with IR illumination.
In summary, this is a low cost 5MP camera with good reception, image quality and for my application fits the bill perfectly.
What a major upgrade from the 2MP cameras I have in place currently.
This camera newly fitted outside of my converted garage office offers fantastic viewing (so much so I need to lower it a bit to stick within my boundary) and excellent night vision.
I have the FTP set up to save an image every 60 seconds, and separately the motion tracking which works well.
The CamHiPro app works well, I’ve always used the CamHi app so this wasn’t a major change at all, and my old cameras worked fine in this one too.
Really pleased with the quality of the camera.
I have seven of these cameras around my property now & so feel well qualified to write a review. The first batch of these was bought around four years ago & they are still functioning perfectly.
The camera itself is very well constructed & solid… this is no cheap plastic toy!
Image quality both day & night (monochrome at night) is superb & motion sensing works well too, belying the actual price point of this camera!
Set-up is simple once you download the free CamHi app, & although only one camera can be viewed at a time on CamHi, this is no real issue as switching between cameras is quick & easy. It’s also very simple to expand the number of cameras via the app. as I have done several times.
I believe there is also a PC/Mac programme available in which all can be viewed simultaneously, although I’ve not had the chance to explore that yet.
You obviously need fairly good WiFi connection, but once set up, you can view your property from literally anywhere via 4G, as I did from Italy last month… great for peace of mind!
If you wish to secure your property with a cost effective, simple & robust security camera system, look no further… Highly Recommended!

First thought straight out of the box was the solid feel to the camera, it has a metal housing a feels really good quality. The other thing to mention on appearance, is the size of it. This is quite a large camera and so if looking for a discreet camera people may not notice, this might not be for you. I take it as a positive as I like the cameras to be seen, it’s a deterrent. It’s also larger than the other two PTZ cameras I have from the same company.
Set up was pretty easy through the cam hi pro app and once plugged into my router I was able to find the camera straight away and connect to it. I have 3 cameras for this same company now and it’s slightly inconvenient not been able to use the same app that I have my other two cameras in (CamHi) and instead having to use Cam hi Pro.
Installation was a breeze as this one is mounted to my garage, so it was just a case of drilling a hole into facia boards large enough to fit the connectors through, pushing the cables through, screwing the camera to the timber boards and then connecting and plugging in the cable on the inside of the garage.
Picture quality is great and the PTZ works really well and the clarity when fully zoomed in is amazing.
I’ve only had the camera up a few days but when re watching videos I have noticed the picture quality lacks a little when there is someone/something moving and loses definition on the person/thing. (See video). It may be the case that I just have to play around with some of the settings.
The night vision also works really well (see picture)
I have enabled the human motion detection alarm setting which sends a notification straight though when movement is detected by what it identifies as a human, I may have to adjust sensitivity slightly though as it does pick up and lot of things such as hedges/trees blowing around.
Although it was mentioned in the description I was disappointed to learn this doesn’t have auto tracking, one of the other cameras I have from them does have this feature and it’s amazing, considering this camera is 50 more I would expect it to have this feature.
All in all I would definitely recommend this camera, there are still a few things I need to work out but I’m confident with altering the settings a little I can have this performing brilliantly.
This is my second camera from this company. I bought this one as an additional camera as the first one is still working (bought it 3 years ago)
-after testing the newest model, I can immediately tell the difference of the images, it is much clearer and sharper .
-the WiFi signal reception is excellent
– quality 2 ways audio
– the night vision is good enough for me
I would recommend this camera to my friends…
All round a nice camera easy to set up with the app on your Phone
you can also use the web interface on a pc which will give you more control over the settings
Picture is very clear I have included a Video from the camera of a car driving past the house the camera at this time is in a temp position in the window but still works well.
The camera has also been added to my blue iris set up without any problem the only issue I have is the key frame rate. I can not get it above 0.50 the other Sv3c cams I have all run at 0.90 or 1.00 but so far this is not having any issues with the it being that low
This will not give you any problem if you only want to use the app on your phone
Memory card location is easy to get to and insert the card and you can download to your phone or Pc if needed
So Over all a good Camera for the price
SV3C 5MP HD WiFi , ethernet security camera .
Having purchased 4 SV3C cameras over the past 4 years for myself & family , I can give honest feedback to the quality & reliability of the products .
Firstly the camera quality is superb no cheap flimsy plastic used here the casing is made from metal & hard plastics which are very durable & I have noticed zero degradation over the 4 years of my other SV3C cameras . All are placed outside .
The images are very sharp both daytime & at night . Giving clear concise images is important here .
The optional humanoid detection works very well , negating the need for unwanted images of animals walking by . This feature can also be turned off in the app / software therefore capturing all movement.
Sound quality is also great , I turn this feature off as not personally needed . But it’s a great feature to include .
The camera offers both WiFi 2.4g & ethernet connections.
The power cable is a good length of approx 2.5 metres , an extender can be used if needed & at minimal costs .
SD cards work very well in these cameras upto 128gb .
You have everything included , UK power adapter , mounting bracket built into the unit which is fully flexible to achieve the best position. Ethernet cable , wall plugs & screws , instruction manual .
The app camhipro gives rock solid performance, is easy to use and that’s what one really wants .
Having tried other brands , I have found SV3C to be the best of the bunch .
To summarize
Fantastic build quality solid durable construction that lasts.
Image & sound quality are superb.
Easy to setup a truly set & forget smooth operation.
Flexible installation due the the design of the mounting bracket.
A new feature in the firmware , simple to update via the app.
App performance is rock solid , with lots of options but simple enough for non tech savvy people to setup
.
Once again SV3C has designed a great product .
I’ve had around 4 or 5 SV3C cameras over the years and when our new stables were built I knew I needed a decent camera.
Firstly these are not so much for beginners but for people who use these things to their full capacity.
You can connect and set these up without a LAN cable as demonstrated in my video, just be sure to trun off your mobile data to save confusion on the connection.
Once configured onto the WiFi or direct connection you can change so many settings, I always set my email forwarding to email me 3 pictures of any movement, that way I always have a copy of the first 3 seconds of whatever is happening.
The zoom on this thing is fantastic, not digital but all optical so there is no image quality loss.
Inserting a micro SD card means recording can be done without any sort of internet connection, great for when this is set up in an area with dodgy WiFi coverage. You can set areas up for motion detection, human shape detection and also pre-program movement for watching multiple areas.
For even more control you can log in to this camera from a web browser and configure so many options and it can use onvif for integration with other CCTV systems.
Overall it’s easy to set up and has a lot of features for basic use but be aware this is a very advanced camera with a lot of powerful features which would suit a more industrial or professional installation.
I bought this camera for it’s ONVIF capability. It has exceeded my expectations. As you can see on the video I have included with this review, I have full control of the camera via tinycam pro running on my android TV. Both pan tilt and zoom, and preset locations are accessable via Tiny Cam pro! Also have the ability to hear the audio from the cameras built-in microphone microphone.
Initially the camera was easy to set up using the cam hi Android app, and can then be further configured using a web browser on your PC if required required.
An excellent and must have camera for your home or work security security. Thoroughly impressed and highly recommended
Bought 3 cameras …..straightforward to activate.After a couple of months I had a problem with 1 of the cameras,Sylvia from Customer Services was extremely helpful and the camera was replaced.Very good quality for a reasonable price.
his is my 3th cam this company (one was as gift from SV3C)
very good video quality 5MP
good night vision and motion detection
for me important than working with ONVIF protocol so you can use yours NVR recorde
Purchased a few of these cameras now and everyone has met its expectation. The picture quality is good night and day, motion detection works well using the Camhi app and records onto the SD card. Can be controlled remotely using software such as iSpy.
Setup is easy just connect directly to your router using the cable and default admin/password and then configure to your requirements. Would recommend keeling cable connection over WiFi due to lag/ picture degrading on.
Excellent camera, well built(Solid strong heavy metal), crystal clear picture. I’m ordering another one for the back garden.
Easy to use with clear pictures and easy to download, first class night vision, best I’ve ever had, would buy agai
Wir besitzen bereits mehrere berwachungskameras der Marke SV3C und sind seit ber 3 Jahren mehr als begeistert. Als ich zuflligerweise mitbekam, dass nun eine neue 355 Grad Kamera rausgekommen ist und ich eine weitere fr unser Haus brauchte, wurde diese sofort bestellt.
Die Lieferung erfolgt wie gewohnt sehr schnell durch Amazon. Am nchsten Tag war die Kamera bereits bei uns eingetroffen.
Die Kamera wurde natrlich sofort ausgepackt. Der erste Eindruck war wie bei den anderen Kameras der Marke SV3C : sehr hochwertig verarbeitet.
Im Lieferumfang war alles ntige dabei.
Das montieren der Kamera ist relativ leicht. Es mssen lediglich vier Lcher gebohrt werden, die mitgelieferten Dbel in die Lcher schieben und danach mit den Schrauben befestigen. Danach erfolgt der Stromanschluss.
Bitte beachtet beim Betreiben per W-LAN:
Vor dem montieren solltet Ihr die Kamera mit dem Router per Lan verbinden, damit diese dann in eurem Netzwerk angezeigt wird. Leichter geht es wirklich nicht. Das Ganze einrichten mit der App dauert keine 2-3 Minuten.
Die Qualitt des Bilder ist unglaublich gut. Man kann zudem sehr nah an Sachen zoomen ohne erheblichen Qualittsverlust.
Was ich zudem hervorheben muss ist die sehr gute W-LAN Reichweite. Dort wo ich keinen Wlan Empfang mit dem Handy habe, dort hat die Kamera dennoch noch zwei von drei Balken. Aus diesem Grund hatte ich mich damals auch fr die Kameras von SV3C entschieden.
Eine wirklich super Kamera zu einem tollen Preis! Wrde ich nur weiterempfehlen!
Die Kamera ist einfach einzurichten und zu installieren. Die Bildqualitt ist hervorragend und die Kamera besitzt sogar eine Art Gegensprechanlage – gut verstndlich. Durch die deutsche Benutzeroberflche lassen sich die Einstellungen einfach vornehmen. Ich habe eine 64GB SD-Karte in den vorgesehenen Schacht installiert um automatische Schnappschsse abzuspeichern. Auch eine WLAN-Funktion ist vorhanden. Ich benutze die APP tinyCam Pro, welche die Kamera perfekt untersttzt. Tolle Kamera!!
This product fulfils the need for a wall-mounted video cam inside a church to be used as an aid to sending the church service by Skype.
Die Kamera kam gestern an und ich habe sie gleich installiert und getestet. Sie ist einfach zu installieren. Man muss eine App herunter laden und sich da registrieren (kostet nix). Ich kann von unterwegs auf die Kamera zugreifen was fr mich auch der ausschlaggebende Punkt war und das ich sie auch schwenken und das Bild heran zoomen kann.
Sogar das Nachtbild ist gut hab sogar einen Fuchs erwischt.
Ich kann die Kamera nur empfehlen.
Da ich schon mehrere SV3C Kameras besitze und mich die Qualitt, der Kundenservice und die einfache Inatallation berzeugte, wollte ich mir einfach mal eine hhere Klasse davon zulegen und habe es nicht bereut. Unser Zweitwohnsitz ist 130km entfernt, hat ausser einem Wochenendhaus keinen Nachbarn und haben wir dort Tiere, weshalb derartige Kameras ideal sind. Zum einen kann ich jederzeit alles am Handy kontrollieren, zum anderen bekomme ich eine sofortige Meldung, wenn sich jemand unbefugt auf das Grundstck bewegt (oder eines der Tiere mal ausreit). Zudem hat man dann auch noch Beweisaufnahmen! Die Installation ist wirklich fr jedermann ganz einfach, durch das 20-fache optische Zoom kann man jede Kleinigkeit erkennen, selbst wenn es weiter entfernt ist und selbst bei Nacht sieht man durch das unsichtbare Infrarotlicht alles wie mit einem Scheinwerfer. Man kann sogar nachts bei Infrarotbeleuchtung auf Farbe umstellen. Und durch die Mglichkeit einer 128GB SD-Card braucht man sich nicht sorgen, dass auch nach lngerer Zeit eine Aufnahme berspielt wird. Fragen werden prompt vom sehr freundlichen Kundenservice beantwortet. Somit kann ich diese Kamera nur empfehlen und versichern, dass man damit eine gute Investition gemacht hat!
Great camera and really easy to set-up and install. Picture quality is clear and the PTZ function works really well. Gives some of the better known brands a serious run for the money. Well recommended.
So i have had the camera installed and running for a couple of months now and so far no problems. I like the fact i can view the camera live through my iphone from anywhere and the features on the app i use are fairly user friendly. I can easily download clips to my phone and also choose to take live video clips or still pictures anytime. setting it up was not the easiest experience but once i had connected it via a lan cable i could then connect via wi-fi and disconnect the lan cable. The picture quality is excellent even at night and i like the fact you can “pinch and zoom” the picture on your phone even on live view. the mic picks up everything and the two way mic also works well , you just have to bring up the icons on the phone screen and hit the mic icon to activate it. overall the whole set up is fine and i am thinking about buying another camera to add to the system.
Excellent picture, night vision very good and motion tracking very good, setting up of camera easy and playback of recorded video easy.
After having few issues with my car being damaged outside my house I decided I need to get camera. The only option was to get PTZ as I am never guranteed spot outside my house. Therefore it is great to be able to move camera about and zoom in wherever I need to.
I puchased this camera in July 2020 and had it 4 months with no issues. The camera has got good picture quality, even at night and the amazing thing is you can move it around as you wish and adjust the area coverage as you wish with your phone and without the need of going up the ladder, etc.
The camera already proved itself by filming silly kid from neighbourhood throwing large stone on my neighbour’s car (parked next to mine and lucky it wasn’t mine!). Without this camera we wouldn’t be able to find out what and how has happened. Thanks to this camera we were able to view the recording straight away and find that kid on the same day! Tell you what… his dad wasn’t happy!
Great buy and I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to protect either their house, car or any other valuables that you need to keep it outside.
This is a good camera for the price. No complaints
Robust and well made, picture quality is excellent, especially at night.
Connection to wifi and iphone is very simple.
Highly recommend
Whilst a little longer to locate and fix to wall the setup of the app and cameras was a dream. Great images and user friendly App on both mine and my wife’s mobiles so we can both view whilst away from home. Images are crisp and real time with no delays. Have added a 128gb sd card so can review saved videos. Really happy with these cameras and the added security they will surely bring.
Very good camera quality and the sound is good too. Would definatly recommend. Very easy to set up and to use. Ideal if you are looking to install these without a professional as they easily work off of the WiFi. Just make sure you set them up for WiFi via the LAN before setting them up on the wall!
Bought 2 of these. One was not set up for months after purchase and didn’t work so was replaced by the seller very quickly.
I connect this camera to my Synology NAS server using the excellent Survellience Client software. This camera is perfect for my needs – PoE (Power over Ethernet), PTZ (Pan, Tilt, Zoom) and with high quality image feed. This is the second one of these cameras that I’ve bought – it won’t be the last.
I purchased this camera following a recommendation from a friend to put up at the side of the house to cover down the drive to the road. The build quality of the camera is excellent & it was easy to install and set up. I followed the instructions download the app then did a hard set up using the Ethernet cable to connect the the router. Once that was done I then set it up to run wirelessly. The picture quality both during the day & at night is great and the motion detector sends an alert when it detects humanoid movement. An excellent feature is being able to customise the movement area so it covers just what you want it to. Being able to view and control it from your phone is great and really useful. I have never installed anything like this before but if I can do it anybody can. I am really please with this purchase.
First impressions were good, solid metal casing and stylish design. I used the Lan ethernet connection rather than wifi as my signal through two double glazed and insulated doors wouldn’t work. I used youtube to check how to install it and found that the app worked well without problems and now I have a clear sharp image on my phone . The price of 49 is a bargain but you have to include the cost of a micro card,. The Western Digital WD Purple SC QD101 64GB Smart Video Surveillance microSDXC Card at present it is 16.99 on Amazon and is recommended for continuous recording. Would I buy again the answer is certainly yes.
UPDATE
Now it has been installed for a few weeks, I thought it might be useful to add a comment. The microphone only works one way. I can hear someone from outside but they can’t hear me replying. I contacted the supplier based in China. They can only be contacted through Amazon, no website, no email address. They wanted my ip address and password, as if that was going to happen, to examine the problem. I can’t see how having access to fix a sound problem when it worked one way was going to help. It took quite an effort to physically install the camera so I will put up with just having the video. Pity it held out great promise. Would I buy again now. Probably not. I will look elsewhere for future purchases
Stunning image. Can set it up on phone or pc easily. Really good quality camera
A quality product which was super easy to setup and use! Camera has clear image quality in the daytime and at night. Would recommend for anyone looking to buy a security camera.
Fitted this camera up in a stable so we could keep an eye on our horse that’s in foal. Really pleased how simple the set up was and how easy it was to link to the wireless so we can all access the camera via our phones.
Easy to set up nice piece of kit.
Had a faulty one there customer service is second to none. After providing purchase order numbers they sent me a replacement free off charge received within a few days highly recommend
Note that a bunch of cables come out the back so when you fix this to a wall you will have too:
Drill a large hole on the wall, fit a box as well to put the cables in or leave them dangling below.
Given that when used on wi-fi only one of the cables (the power) is used this is silly.
But they are all the same and they rarely show the cables in the pictures.
Also this camera has to have a different App loaded from my other camera which is the same make etc.
Picture quality is above average as this is advertised as HD. Motion detection is god and adjustable.
I now have 4 of these cameras and the quality is excellent for the money. Using the ONIF setup they appeared on my NVR and were really easy to setup.
I will be buying a few more.
Good picture, very sensitive detection mode if required (adjustable sensitivity) easy intuitive setup process. Don’t like that it will only record in 14 second segments when used in motion detect mode. Had a slight problem with 1st purchase and camera was replaced FOC, the customer service from the manufacturer in China was EXCELLENT!
A little on the awkward side to install. The aerial could do with being a different fixing. Sound is good, the microphone picks up everything. If you are looking for a deterrent rather than a full blown security system, then this one is the one to go for..
Absolutely fantastic quality easy to set u. Brought 3 now all the neighbours are buying them best cameras on the market and the price is brilliant.
This is a great camera. I installed it in my father in laws house for a bit of extra security. The picture is crystal clear night or day and the sound is excellent. Only slight draw-back is that it has to have a CAT6 Lan cable from the camera to the router, but that’s not such a problem if the camera and router are on the same floor. Definitely recommend this product.
Great cameras for the price, plenty of features and the quality of images at night are superb, this is my second purchase of the same model and I would happily recommend them, just be sure to use Internet explorer to set them as some of the menu options are not shown in other browsers.
Alice from Tech support really good in replying to any queries.
