What it can do for 2,699 CZK

It’s a rotating camera with a 360° field of view that automatically tracks moving people, distinguishes people from insignificant objects (PIR sensor), and triggers a siren and two dazzling spotlights upon intrusion. The image is sharp 2K+, night vision is color up to 15 meters, and the body is resistant to rain and dust (IP65). Power is handled by a battery with up to 210 days of life, complemented by a solar panel included in the package. And a key thing owners praise: recordings are stored on built-in 32 GB, so the camera functions fully even without paid cloud storage – cloud is just an optional bonus.

What to expect

There are only a few reviews so far, but they agree on one thing: initial setup requires patience. A printed manual is practically missing (it’s downloaded in the app), and one owner encountered a non-functional QR link, so connecting to Wi-Fi and pairing might take a while. The EZVIZ app is not the clearest, and experiences with the solar panel are mixed – in summer, charging is more than sufficient, but one user reported that the panel stopped charging after a week. A minor point: the camera doesn’t always manage to track a person during very fast movement.

If you can handle the initial setup and want a wireless camera without monthly fees, it offers a lot of bang for your buck at 2,699 CZK. Anyone who wants a camera that they just unbox and it’s running within a minute might struggle for a bit.

Do you prefer a camera with its own storage, or do you rely on the cloud?
