There’s no geolocation built into the app so that the EZViz BC1C can be turned on when you go out and off when you get home.
EZVIZ CLOUDPLAY COST MANUAL
It’s possible to schedule when the EZViz BC1C can and can’t record, plus there’s a manual option to enable and disable recording on all devices. This always offers an improvement over standard black-and-white video, so it’s well worth enabling.
This camera has a spotlight that can be turned on for full-colour night vision. Only motion inside these areas will trigger an alert. If there are still too many notifications, there’s a slightly clunky option to draw activity zones. It works with a high degree of accuracy, reducing the number of notifications I received. Most useful is the Human Shape Detection, which is a long-winded way of saying that the EZViz BC1C will only ping a notification when it spots a person. Its default settings are to detect any and all motion, but there are some settings to fine-tune what it captures.

As with most cameras, the EZViz BC1C has a two-way talk option, allowing you to communicate with anyone you can see on the feed. Once connected, there’s a Live view showing what’s going on. It has a straightforward wizard that guided me through connecting the camera to my home Wi-Fi network. The EZViz app is home to all of the company’s cameras. This camera has an integrated 32GB of memory, and there’s no SD card slot to expand this. I opted for the solar panel and found it powerful enough to keep the EZViz BC1C’s battery topped up without costing a penny.
EZVIZ CLOUDPLAY COST INSTALL
Second, if you want to install the EZViz BC1C in a shady location, you can mount the solar panel elsewhere the Eufy model requires you to place the camera in full sunlight. First, you can plug it in just to recharge the battery, rather than having it fixed. The rival Eufy SoloCam S40 has a solar panel built into the top of the camera, which makes for a neater appearance, but EZViz’s option does have a couple of advantages. If you don’t fancy paying for electricity (and who could blame you at the moment), there’s an optional solar panel (around £23), which plugs into the camera to keep it topped up for free.
This model features an integrated battery, and the camera has to be removed to be charged.
There’s also a magnetic mount in the box, plus a screw-in option if you want something a bit more secure. This camera has a magnetic rear, so can attach to most metal surfaces. Despite this colour choice, the camera is still easy to spot, which is important since awareness is useful in putting off would-be thieves. Design and Installationįinished in dark grey and black plastic, the EZViz BC1C is refreshingly different to most other security cameras, which tend to come in gloss white. Decent quality video and a basic but functional app make this a good budget choice. Buy the optional solar panel and the camera can charge its battery for free, avoiding any running costs.
