It’s a great feature but it can be a little jolty and slow to respond.Īnother way recording can start is when the camera hears sudden loud noises but it’s quite sensitive so you may only want this to be activated when you’re not in the house, or you could end up receiving notifications every time the TV gets switched on or you accidentally slam a door. You can also set the camera to track people around the room when it detects them, moving its position to do so. To move the camera, there's a PTZ panel in the app that lets you adjust the camera position up and down as well as towards the left and right. The Ezviz C6 2K+ Smart Home Camera’s ability to pick up human movement seemed to be precise and reliable, although sadly I couldn’t test it with a pet because I don’t have one. The camera can film coloured video in low light but the accuracy drops quite dramatically in comparison to daytime footage making it much harder to see what’s going on, because of that I think you’re better off sticking to the black and white night vision. It also has 'Auto Zoom Tracking' to get a better image of a person's face.
Colours look relatively accurate and you’ll have no problem picking up faces even if the person isn’t right up close to the device. Recording footage in 2560 × 1440p 2K+ resolution, the Ezviz C6 2K+ Smart Home Camera is able to capture high-quality clips with plenty of detail in the daylight.

You can save clips for free thanks to the MicroSD card slot, but if you did want to keep your footage in a cloud, per camera Ezviz CloudPlay will set you back $3.99/£2.99 a month for 3-day video history, $5.99/£4.99 a month for 7-day video history and $10.99/£9.99 a month for 30-day video history. Under the flap below the camera lens, there’s a MicroSD card slot to store your footage as well as a handy reset button. On the back of the camera, there’s a LAN port for wired connectivity and a mini USB port to power it. You’ll also get the power cable and power adapter. While it has no other purpose than showing the camera isn’t watching, it’s still a really nice little detail.īecause of its chunkier design, I’d imagine most people will have this placed on a table or shelf but if you did want to mount it, there’s a drill template and screw kit included in the box. A cute sleeping face appears when the camera lens is hidden below the body of the device. To let you know that the camera is working as it should do, there’s a small LED light below the lens that flashes blue, and when things aren’t going to plan it changes to red. The base stays still while the top half of the device rotates, and the main lens area tilts upwards and downwards. In the shape of a ball with a flat base to stand it up, the camera is mostly white with a black camera unit in the middle, it’s simple and won’t be too much of an eyesore inside your home although there are better looking and more discreet options out there.Īble to both pan and tilt, this camera gives you an almost 360° view of the room. Measuring 100 × 100 × 96.5mm, the Ezviz C6 2K+ Smart Home Camera is a bit bigger than a lot of other cameras.
