ZOSI 8Ch 4-In-1 Full 1080P Hd H.265+ Security Standalone Dvr Video Recorder Cctv For Home Surveillance Security Camera System Motion Detection, Remote Control, Email Alarm, No Hard Drive

I bought this to replace a lightning fried Cobra security DVR that I purchased 3 years ago from Harbor Freight. I was able to save my old hard drive and installed it easily, then connected my existing wired cameras and monitor. Up and running after a quick set up and hard drive format. I downloaded their app to view the cameras while out of the home and it worked perfectly. Although picture quality isn't the best while viewing it this way, it was incredibly easy to access. My old Cobra system was a nightmare to view remotely, having to use ddns, port forwarding and a smart plug with remote access (it needed to be constantly restarted to connect). I then tried to view on my Windows laptop and here is when the hiccup came. I downloaded the AVSS software and followed the instructions, logging in to my account. My device showed up but it's status was "offline" and when I clicked the channels to play nothing happened. I tried a bunch of different things (opened ports, deployed web AVSS launcher) but nope, still showed offline. I finally contacted Zosi email support and provided everything I could think of. I received a surprisingly fast response from "Jar" with a simple fix. He suggested that I choose a channel from the device, right click it and hit play. I doubted it would work since the device was still showing as offline, but I followed his direction and it worked! All of a sudden the device was showing "online" and I was able to view my camera (low quality, but still.....). I did the same thing with each feed and they all worked. Nice job, Jar!

No me gusto No traía disco duro Esto es un robo. No debería engañar a uno. No es gusto Me van a regresar algo del importe que hicieron o presento una demanda ?

We bought this DVR for the purpose of replacing our old samsung DVR. It was easy to set up and seems to work well. Unfortunately it was not compatible with the samsung cameras that we had, so we returned it. They sent us the label and the refund came through after they verified the return. Now we are considering buying a set of Zosi DVR plus cameras, which costs less than buying a new Samsung DVR.

After doing extensive research and comparing various DVR options, I decided to go with the ZOSI 3K Lite 8CH CCTV DVR Recorder, and I'm genuinely impressed with what it offers—especially at this price point. I’ve been using it for about a month now, and here’s my honest experience so far: ✅ Setup and Compatibility Even though I’m not a tech expert, setup was straightforward. The unit came well-packaged with clear instructions. I already had a few older analog cameras (TVI and AHD formats), and I was relieved to see how easily they worked with this DVR. It’s truly plug-and-play for supported camera formats. Just remember: this model doesn’t come with a hard drive, so you’ll need to install your own (I added a 1TB WD Purple drive without any issues). 🔍 Video Quality & AI Detection The video output is clean and crisp—significantly better than my previous DVR system. While it supports up to 3K resolution, my existing 1080p cameras look fantastic, especially with the H.265+ compression, which saves a lot of space on the hard drive without compromising video quality. The standout feature for me is the AI Human/Vehicle detection. This drastically cuts down on false alerts (like animals, shadows, or blowing trees). I have it set to notify me when a person or vehicle is detected on specific cameras, and it’s been very accurate. No more sifting through hours of useless footage! 📱 App and Remote Access The ZOSI Smart app is solid—basic, but reliable. I can easily check live footage or play back recordings from my phone. Setup was easy with the QR code pairing. Remote viewing works even on slower mobile data, which is a big plus. There’s also the option to configure alerts and playback via browser or their desktop software, which I’ve used a few times. 💡 Other Notable Features Hybrid 4-in-1 Support: This unit supports HD-TVI, CVI, AHD, and CVBS—perfect for those who are mixing different types of analog cameras. Motion Zones & Schedules: I appreciate the customization—motion zones can be drawn manually, and you can set schedules for each camera. I’ve set mine to only record during nighttime hours for certain zones. Build Quality: The DVR itself feels well-made and doesn’t overheat or make noticeable noise. ⚠️ A Few Things to Note: No hard drive included, so factor that into your budget. Not compatible with IP cameras (this is strictly for analog camera systems). The user interface is a bit dated, but it gets the job done. ⭐ Final Verdict: If you’re upgrading an older analog system or building a custom wired setup from scratch, the ZOSI 3K Lite 8CH DVR is a rock-solid choice. The AI detection is surprisingly good for the price, and the overall system is reliable, customizable, and user-friendly. Once you add a quality HDD and your preferred cameras, you’re looking at a powerful DIY home security solution at a fraction of the cost of full-package systems. Highly recommended!

Well made product at a very reasonable price. Works as advertised and simple setup supported by great customer service.
