Wireless: The EZVIZ CB1 is an indoor battery-powered security camera listed with 1080p video, night vision and two-way audio. Its wire-free placement and local microSD option suit monitoring a room without a permanent cable run, but the claimed battery runtime is based on limited daily use.
At a glance
- Battery-powered placement avoids a fixed power cable during use, with Wi-Fi still required for network connection.
- The listing describes 1080p video, night vision and two-way audio for checking and speaking through the camera in the app.
- Local microSD recording is offered without a subscription, while cloud storage is described as an optional subscription.

Pros and cons
Pros
- The wire-free design and magnetic base make it easier to reposition indoors than a camera that needs a permanent power connection.
- Two-way audio and app-based viewing support remote room checks and conversation.
- Local microSD storage is offered as an alternative to paid cloud storage.
Cons
- Battery life can vary substantially in customer feedback, and the claimed 40-day figure assumes only five minutes of use per day.
- The camera supports 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only, so it is not suitable for a setup requiring 5 GHz Wi-Fi.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives conflicting storage limits: 512 GB in product details and feature copy, but 256GB in an FAQ. It also alternates between a 40-day battery claim based on five minutes of daily use and a statement about constant overnight performance. Confirm the selected listing's supported card capacity and expected runtime. The 512 GB entry is a listing claim, not confirmation that a card is included.

Customer feedback highlights image quality and motion detection as strengths, but experiences are mixed on battery life, setup, connectivity, visibility, functionality and value. Some report charging every three to four days while others describe a longer interval. This matters for a battery-powered camera whose stated maximum runtime assumes only five minutes of daily use. The overall ratings are mixed rather than uniformly positive, and do not establish why individual customers rated it as they did.
Positive themes
- Customers report positive experiences with image quality.
Negative themes
- Some customers report connection losses and visibility problems.
Mixed feedback
- Feedback is mixed on motion detection, battery life, setup, ongoing functionality and value for money.
Frequently asked questions
