Excellent camera in terms of image quality, day and night functionality. Also very easy to use and install, very minimal delay when connected to wifi, overall excellent. Well done

The camera is very good in terms of image and app.
It is difficult to install with the 4 screws it has because the sockets are behind the camera and you will get quite tired.
Personally, I only used 3. I placed the fourth one on the power adapter.
Be careful. For outdoor use, if you don't have a socket next to it, you will need to pull a cable.
As for Ethernet, I won't discuss it at all.
A small glitch it had with the pan tilt can be resolved by turning it by hand to unstick it.
In my personal opinion, it's worth up to €50. I already have 4 cameras of the same brand and they have been working perfectly for over 7 years.

Update 12/09/2024
Unfortunately, the camera decided to talk by itself and there is no setting to address it.
I would suggest avoiding it and buying a more serious one!!

  I have purchased ten CS64 cameras, some of which operate with WiFi and some with a cable, but for them to function seamlessly, they must:

  1. The NVR they are connected to must be set to command a Reboot every day.
  2. The TP-LINK WiFi Access Points (which are only for the cameras) must also be set to reboot every day; otherwise, they freeze after 2 to 3 days.
  3. The cameras that are in dark spots but see outside are set to permanent IR to avoid the "pink" image that can result from continuous switching between IR/Normal mode.
  4. The cameras are set to "Smooth" video mode and with the H264+ compression protocol (this is only adjustable through the Android App).
  5. The cameras record 24/7 on the NVR, so they do not have triggers activated for motion detection, etc.

  In the summer (25/07/2024), I bought a new CS64 to replace one that broke. Unfortunately, as mentioned in another post, the new CS64s do not connect to NVRs because Web Access, ONVIF, and RTSP are not disabled!!!

  The camera does not have onvif, resulting in it not connecting to the Vstarcam NVR. I have two other CS64 purchased from a well-known store (Livadeia), with different firmware, and they work normally with the NVR. This one does not connect to the NVR at all. Through the app and PC, there is no problem.

  Guys, be careful, the camera does not have onvif, so I haven't been able to connect it to an NVR yet (this is for sure because I called the dealership). They say it has rtsp, but the American website doesn't mention it. Other than that, it works great with the software. In terms of construction, a Chinese one I had was much better and it was half the price. TOO CHINESE, COME ON GUYS, YOU DIDN'T EVEN CHANGE THE SCREWS THAT ARE STUCK IN THE WALL.

  It's decent for its price. The only downside is that I'm not sure if it applies to other brands as well, but compared to a similar product I bought a few months ago, I notice several differences in their functionality based on the application, and you have to make adjustments to bring them to similar functions. Also, the image quality, especially at night, is much better than other products of the same price range and compared to a model from the same company that I bought several years ago. It's worth the money, under 45 euros, that is. Only time will tell the rest

  Even if a mosquito passes by or the wind blows, it notifies all the time! It is the only flaw but also the most serious one. It should be noted that I have adjusted the camera properly! In an enclosed space without any wind, it can function correctly, but in an outdoor space, it literally shakes even with a mosquito!

  It is a very good web camera that provides everything one might need. It can be connected either via WiFi or Ethernet (I obviously recommend WiFi) and accepts memory cards or records to the cloud (with a subscription). It can be customized quite easily and detects motion and/or people with 3 levels of accuracy.
  If you set it to very sensitive, it will capture every movement from every plant (I have it in my backyard), but in medium accuracy, it is much better. The software that recognizes "people" does not always work accurately, for example, if it sees a cat on a tree, it often recognizes it as a person, but it is better to detect more than to miss information.
  It has an alarm and lighting and can follow its target. Personally, I have connected it to the cloud and I am very satisfied. It has no problem with external conditions (wind and rain) and it has good WiFi reception even though it is at a distance. The video it records is of excellent quality (although one can reduce the quality if they do not want to use too much space in the cloud).
  Overall, I am very satisfied!

  Unfortunately, after 6 months, it no longer records and does not notify anything about movements on the mobile.

  I have it installed for 7 months now (July 22). It has good build quality, connects easily, and has never lost signal so far, considering that it is more than 10 meters away from the Wi-Fi and there is a 70-point wall in between. Also, the robotic function works smoothly. The problem I face is with event recording. When I was using the free Cloud, it did not detect human activity in a timely manner and the video did not have smooth motion. For example, a 10-second video lasted more than 30 seconds, I had to replay it to have a shorter duration, not the intended 10 seconds. In any case, the recording was delayed to the point where the event of interest could be missed. The same thing happens with the memory card I inserted. It misses part or even the entire activity, the video time does not flow correctly, and even though I have it set to record only human activity, it records empty space as well. I try to figure out what has been recorded, even a cat, a moving branch, and nothing is visible. I would not recommend it for event recording, but it works fine for live monitoring.

  For its price, it's great. Very good image and video quality. Quite fast, I tried it with 2 applications and it works fine. I've been using it for 1 month and something. I recommend it for its price at 45€.

  For the money, it is excellent. I have been using it for 8 months outdoors (rain-snow) and it works perfectly, rivaling cameras that cost over 100€. I highly recommend it without hesitation!

  Very good camera, good image, the person recognition and notifications work quite well. No disconnections, etc. However, sometimes I noticed that the projector turns on for no reason and remains on until you enter the application and turn it off. Also, I couldn't manage to get any space in the cloud.

  With 40.00 euros, we do not expect AI (Artificial Intelligence) as advertised, meaning recognition and tracking of humans. It fails to distinguish human movement (person detection mode), everything is movement!
  Alarms are triggered by the noise of leaves, the passage of an animal or a piece of paper or a bird or a butterfly with the sensitivity set to the minimum. It also does not have a motion detection range of more than 5 meters! For a balcony, for example, it does not detect movement on the stairs leading to the balcony.
  Nighttime motion recordings start after 30 seconds (the first 30 seconds are a black screen) and recording appears from the 30th second until, for example, the 40th second when the recording ends. Obviously, there is a delay in activating the infrared for night recording, during the day it starts from the 1st second. But the user wants it more for night time and of course, not to lose 30 crucial seconds.
  Indoors, I don't think there will be a problem, but it is supposed to be for outdoor use and it is not justified to be woken up by a butterfly or if the leaves of the plants on the balcony are moving while you have it for human recognition.
  In short, there is no consistency and you cannot rely on it for necessary notifications.
  Other than that, for recording and notifying all nearby movements and live monitoring during the day without any loss, it works fine.

  Cheap camera with several problems. I have had it for 4 months.
  Positives:
  1) Very cheap for robotics.
  2) Relatively good image quality (day or night).
  3) Easy installation, easy management program (via mobile).

  Negatives:
  1) Problem with the lens in the first week of use (blurry image in 30% of the frame), replaced it and the new one had the same issue in a different part of the frame, didn't bother with it again.
  2) Sometimes displays a pink image, restarting solves it, but it loses the customer notification (mail) setting that I have set to off, it changes it to on by itself.
  3) Problematic to poor management of the camera through the computer program. Proper management and utilization of the camera's capabilities can only be done through the mobile application.
  4) Plastic construction, it is recommended to place it under some shelter.

  The camera, after 2 days of recording on the memory card, shows a connection fault and can only be fixed by formatting the memory card. For me, it is a useless camera in terms of recording, but for live image, it works fine.
  UPDATE 24/08/2022: After changing the memory card, everything is good, it records properly. The memory card is from the brand Hikvision

  I connected it today. It looks good, if it does something I will come back. It is worth the money. One negative thing is that while it detects you from a distance, the alarm does not go off. You have to go within 2 meters and then after a few seconds it goes off. If it detects light at night, even from 40 meters away, the alarm is activated.

  I have it now for a month, with the camera I have no problem. The application is not the best, many disconnections and it reconnects with difficulty. It is obvious that it is not the network's fault. The application needs improvement.

  POSITIVES
  Fast installation, very good image quality day and night, very good human motion detection algorithm. It also has a motion detection mechanism in general, but I got it specifically for Human Detection and it does it very well, both at short distances of 1-2 meters and at longer distances of 10-15 meters.

  NEGATIVES
  The disappointing thing is that if you're not willing to pay around 50 euros EVERY year for EACH camera, then you have no way of receiving photos/videos OUTSIDE of your home. So if a thief enters and takes it with them, you won't have any evidence. Other drawbacks are that the WiFi connection is not very strong and the app frequently disconnects, while in the same spot, a Foscam camera works without any problems. However, it's okay with a cable. Also, it's made entirely of plastic and not some durable metal.

  WHERE I WILL USE IT
  After all this, I decided to use it as an expensive automatic activation projector, to take advantage of the very good Human Detection and its projector. I already placed a Foscam camera next to it to do the job I really want.

  I won't bother to evaluate the company as Vstarcam is well-known, after all, it is the seventh one I have from the same company. I am proceeding with the evaluation because the fact that there were no comments about this one intrigued me.
  I admittedly hesitated to get it, considering its very low price for an outdoor, robotic, and waterproof use with so little money.
  But I took the risk and it's working just fine.
  Of course, the usual applies, impeccable image day and night. Perfect wifi signal reception, as it has two quite large antennas. Now the eye4 application is okay, just like the others I have, flawless.
  Despite all this, in order to say that it is indeed okay for its use, we will have to see its resistance to rainfall, which will show if it is truly waterproof.
  If it doesn't fog up from humidity, then don't hesitate. All outdoor cameras, especially robotic ones, start from 90.
  I will come back to evaluate its durability with the first rain.
