ZOSI 8 Channel 1080P CCTV Camera System with AI Human Vehicle Detection, 5MP Lite H.265+ DVR with 1TB Hard Drive and 4x 1080P 2MP Dome Security Cameras Indoor Outdoor with Night Vision,Remote Access

The system arrived promptly and was neatly packaged into two boxes, one with the PVR, one with the cameras and cables. The way it all connects together is logical and nicely colour coded. The instructions are simple and straightforward. There are just two sheets - one for installing the cameras and one for the PVR.If you want a system that needs a lot of set up, where you can tune every aspect to the last detail, this probably isn't for you. For example, the cameras automatically switch from day mode (colour) to night mode (infrared black and white). There is no way to change this or tune how soon they switch from day to night - it just works out of the box.I like the way it only needs two power points, one for the PVR and another for the cameras (single power supply powers all 4). The system draws very little power - the maximum rating of the power supplies is 12V 2A, which is to say, you could run this system off a12V leisure battery for a while if you needed to. The entire thing uses less power than a light bulb!One thing I haven't tried is the networking - in fact most of the instructions are about connecting to your router and viewing it on your phone. If you don't want to connect to the internet, the main system is very simple to set up.The final thing to note: I hadn't appreciated the amount of cable routing I'd need to get this set up how I want it, so I am probably going to return it and get a wireless system where the only cabling needed is between each camera and a power supply, although of course it will use up more plug sockets than this system, which really is brilliantly designed.

Great product, it really is plug and play and with the Zosi view app (available free) you can view your camera from anywhere on your smart phone or laptop if you are not at home.I had a small problem with one camera and Zosi replaced a perfectly good camera quick smart even though I offered to fix it myself.Picture quality is great and just as good when it switches to infrared at dusk. Cameras display a ring of infrared lights at night which I liked as people then know that they work. Rewind and zoom and select camera all very simple to use on home screen.I should also add that there are extensive Zosi installation videos on You tube if needed.Very happy to have this as people view house alarms going off these days as a nuisance and instead of saying "Alarms going off, we better do something" they say " Alarms going off for ages now. I wish they would get home and turn the bloody thing off so we can get some peace" .Good buy/bye

After a lot of research I decided to go with the Zosi kit with 4ch/4x1080p/2.0mp cameras with 1tb HDD.Fantastic price, well packaged and you get a lot for your money compared to similar products. After an increase in anti social behaviour in the local vicinity and a theft from my own back garden, it more than meets my needs to keep an eye on things and act as a deterrent.I have to say I'm really impressed with the clear, crisp images both day and night. The night vision is much better than I expected giving clear views for about 20m. The motion detection, like other reviews have stated, is very sensitive and there are plenty of settings to tweak once you've worked out the user interface and menu. Some settings are obvious, others are not! It takes a bit of getting used to. I haven't set up the alerts but wanted it to capture recordings on detecting motion, which it does do brilliantly.The only let down and why I haven't given 5 stars is the ridiculously frustrating instructions and app/software to support remote viewing. They are pretty useless and not intuitive at all. I couldn't get the Zosi view app to connect at all and ended up trying the Zosi Smart app, which worked first time but is not advertised anywhere to use? A lot of guess work was needed.The PC software is equally as rubbish with no intuitive menus or proper English explanations. I've given up on that one.Out of the box set up and recording/viewing is spot on if that's what you want to use it for.The additional apps/software could be a challenge for remote viewing.Overall great value DVR and cameras and I would recommend for basic viewing and recording with crisp, clear images.

I purchased this unit which was easy to install with clear instructions the cameras look smart on the property and does exactly what its meant to do good piece of mind for my property at a good affordable price zosi customer services are good I had an issue with my dvr unit and reported it and I was contacted by ELLA who quickly resolved the problem very pleased with both services thanks

x1 PSU lasted about 3 days, Zosi refunded the cost of a replacement, fair enough, replacement PSU arrives, that is also faulty and does not work. Just had to return the faulty one (had to go to the post office after work before it closed) and I am hoping that the 3rd one works OK.The hardware of this system appears OK but the software is terrible to say the least, and not easy to use at all. I thought I would be able to set this system up so I could access it via a web browser over http but that is not possible apparently (I thought all CCTV systems had this ability?). The mobile phone app does not playback correctly most of the time and the PC software (AVSS) is useless (you can’t even rescale the size of the app window, so you are stuck with its default size or full screen). The software is pretty much useless, so I would not purchase another Zosi product in the future. Decent enough camera and DVR hardware (for the price) but in my case, rendered pretty much useless because I need to be able to connect via http.

I like this, it was easy to set up and it gives a nice clear video and keep a good eye on my property, definitely recommend this zosi and I recommend you get the hard drive installed.
