Hello all, hope you all are doing fine in this pandemic.
I already have a wireless (Chinese) set of CCTV cameras +NVR with low-resolutions.

I am planning to get a new set of CCTV cameras + NVR. Currently i have zeroed on Ezviz set (https://www.amazon.in/HIKVISION-Cameras-Wireless-Security-System/dp/B082LR1T4C/)
I looked online for some good reviews but didn't find anything good.

Does anyone have this set or experience with anything else , please share your experience.

Strict requirements

• Need wireless setup to avoid dangling wires and also because i have good wireless coverage
• Need NVR based solution for remote monitoring
• All the cams will be placed outdoor, so I prefer bullet cams.
• Water-resistant is good to have, as the installation place have roofs

TIA & Stay Safe

I don't have a fancy wired setup. Just 2 mi 360 camera. Both have memory cards installed, also storing video feeds on a network drive over ftp. This setup is not very costly and serves my needs.

Any personal experience ?
Online pics in amazon/flipkart are not real and misleading. I don't see any good reviews as well

Huh?

Adept

I bought two of these from Amazon some 6 months back. Works well. Using it in balcony and stair space but probably not for full outdoor use. As another FM had suggested check CP plus, they are the best.

We have CP Plus cameras (bullet/outdoor) but didn't buy online. They are wired though; bought it in the local market (SP road) and got everything installed through a third-party. It can be remotely monitored through a CP Plus app from Play Store. I believe CP Plus is one of the better known brands, Hikvision is another, but there could be more.

Thanks mate, yes hikvision is good; but i dont see their complete wireless set.
Ezviz is a subsidiary of hikvision

Just visited, I don't like the new theme and layout at all. Need the classic theme back! Was surprised to see the Frat thread on page 1 so did my part in bumping it further lol. I'm not that active in the Android scene now, but will be damn nice to get everyone back in some place. Ideally in OT itself, but XDA looks so alien now.
