Review on πŸ“· ZOSI H.265+1080p Home Security Camera System, 8 Channel 5MP-Lite CCTV DVR with 4 x 1920TVL Weatherproof Surveillance Bullet Camera Outdoor/Indoor, 80ft Night Vision, Remote Access, Motion Alerts by Jermaine Krishnamoorthy

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good price on this model

I ordered a 2 camera system from this company and was pleased enough to upgrade to this 4 camera setup. The only downsides I can find so far are the annoying playback features of the recorded video. Can't go from forward to backward without pausing it first, and doesn't maintain playback speed when going forward or backward in the timeline, and can't get it to take a picture. The company should try to improve the functionality a bit and create more tutorial videos. The image quality isn't outstanding, but it's not bad either, and the night vision is good, as advertised. I can't appreciate when alarm notification snaps or live video are sent via email or smartphone app as I haven't gotten that far yet. The cool thing is that it has both HDMI and VGA outputs, so now I can use my old unused VGA computer flat screens for something and send HDMI to the big screen at the same time. Pretty good overall system for $$$.Update. I just tried the motion detection mode and unfortunately it's practically useless. After blocking everything but the areas I wanted to focus on and continuing to give false alerts at the lowest sensitivity, it seemed like it was just a breeze blowing into the cameras or the sun breaking through the clouds goes in and out and turns them off but for those passing vehicles wouldn't react but I'm not lowering my stars it's still a good system just not as functional as it's advertised.

Cons
  • Obsolete model
