The ten-page manual provided legal information, a table of contents, a product overview/accessory list, and then a rundown of the camera/LED basics. After about fifteen seconds, the camera slowly moved down to level, the top segment rotated to the left, and then circled back to the center.Ī blue LED flashed at the camera’s base, while a female voice announced, “Please use EZVIZ App for WiFi Configuration.” I used the Camera App on my phone to scan the QR code within the instruction manual, navigated to America, and then selected “English.” If needed, you can select a variety of European language options (16), APAC options (7), MEA options (6), or American options (4). I half expected the camera to make a whirring noise and to rotate down, but the camera stayed in place and displayed a red icon just below the camera. I plugged the wall adapter into the wall, the USB-A cable into the adapter, and then the micro cable into the camera. In fact, USB-C will be the only charging system allowed in Europe as of 2024 due to recent legislation. I would have expected this device to use a USB-A to USB-C cable or USB-C to USB-C. Beyond the adapter, the use of USB-Micro charging is a bit old-fashioned. Unfortunately, once you plug the USB-A into the adapter, it juts out beyond 2 1/2 inches from the wall. Several chargers have bendable type A prongs to allow the body of the adapter to fold flat against the wall. I would have preferred a flat wall plug to allow for optimal cable management or at least for the USB-A plug to insert at the side. The box contained a 1 3/8 inches wide by 1 13/16 inches tall by 15/16 inches thick Type A wall adapter, a 2 3/16 inches diameter wall mounting plate, a small bag with three 7/8 inches long by 1/4 inch head screws plus drywall anchors, and a 117 1/4 inches long USB-A to USB-micro cable.Įven before testing the camera, I was a bit taken aback by the design of the wall adapter and the use of USB-A plus USB-micro tech. The posterior surface of the speaker provided a 1-inch wide by 1-inch tall hexagonal speaker cutout, while the base had an Ethernet port and an antiquated USB-Micro input port.īeneath the cardboard tray, you will find a small 14-panel instruction manual and a 4 3/8 inches square by 2 1/8 inches tall accessory box. The cutout space listed the EZVIZ name/logo, the CS-C6 model number, SN, 10W/2A I/P, verification code, and a QR code. The flat bottom contained 3 small 1/4 inches diameter rubberized feet and a tripod-shaped cutout for a wall mount. The lower 1-inch gimbal style base allowed the camera to cover nearly a full 360-degree arc (~330 degrees). The bottom half of the lens mechanism displayed a white slumbering face outline to represent when the camera was in sleep mode. The central 1 3/4 inches wide by 2 3/4 inches tall black “eye” lens embedded within the white-colored, 3 7/8 inches round camera shell, pointed straight up. As a father of a teenager, a preteen, a seven-year-old drama enthusiast, and a three-year-old she-hulk, I would recognize an eye roll anywhere. I removed the outer plastic, lifted the top half of the outer box, and chuckled after finding the 11.4-ounce EZVIZ camera resting within an internal tray. The top panel provided an SKU barcode along the top left and the EZVIZ name/logo at the top of the panel. The rear panel provided an EZVIZ sticker at the top left of the panel (Smart Home Camera, SKU #/barcode, product manufacturing labels), the same App/App store logos as the cover, and copyright information. By waving your hand in front of the camera, it will automatically call the EZVIZ app. The camera targeted the cats and provided a pictorial representation of the pet detection feature mentioned at the bottom of the panel.īeyond capturing “your furry friend” on camera, the panel detailed the camera’s waving hand mechanically. However, this image showed motion lines around the camera representing 360-degree rotational motion. The left side panel provided another picture of a fun living room scene with three active kittens. At the bottom of the panel, you will find nine product-defining icons: 360 degrees panoramic View, 2K resolution, Color vision with starlight lens, supports dual-band 2.4/5Ghz Wi-Fi, AI-powered human shape detection, auto-zoom tracking, voice activity detection, two-way talk, supports micro SD card and EZVIZ cloud storage (only certain countries).
