REVIEW & INFO

Honest review and information

ZOSI H.265+ 1080P FHD 16 Channel DVR for Home Security Camera System is an excellent solution for home security in an affordable range. The product offers impressive features that are not only useful and efficient but also make it a worthy purchasing choice. Let's dive into the specifics of this DVR recorder to understand its usefulness.

Advanced H.265+ High Efficiency Video Compression

ZOSI has self-developed a video coding technology called H.265+ that focuses on the unique characteristics of surveillance scenes for larger storage space and better image quality. Using H.265+ can improve compression ratio on the basis of H.265 standard and save storage space up to 80% compared to H.264. The result is excellent storage resources and a smooth viewing experience, providing users with clean and clear images.

4-in-1 1080P 16CH DVR Recorder

This 16 Channel 1080P DVR Recorder is a hybrid capability 4-in-1 device that supports 4 kinds of camera models: 960H Analog,720P/1080P AHD, 720P/1080P TVI and CVI. This feature makes it one of the most versatile DVR recorders in the market. However, it's essential to note; no hard drive is included.

Local or Remote Access, Playback Anytime & Anywhere

The ZOSI H.265+ comes with the option to view and control the security system locally by attaching a monitor to the system. However, the more unique option is the ability to control and access the system remotely through the free ZOSI Client software available for PC and tablet and a Smartphone APP (ZOSI Smart). With this remote access, you can also playback evidence or footage records by searching different days, hours or minutes; this offers excellent convenience and easiness.

Advance Motion Detection & Alert Push

The default notification format for most home security systems is email alerts whenever motion is detected. However, sometimes such motions might occur in areas where notification is unwanted, like a back door or a pet area. The ZOSI H.265+ offers customizable motion detection area, allowing you to adjust and block out selected areas and grant privacy in some situations, so people cannot view certain areas or activities. Additionally, instant notifications and email alerts with screenshot will be pushed to your phone directly for moving objects.

Customize Each Camera with Different Record Modes

The biggest advantage of the ZOSI H.265+ DVR is its versatile customization option. With 4 kinds of recording modes photo and video capturing is customizable to meet your needs.

Additionally, you can download the recording files to a USB backup for later viewing.
