EZVIZ CP2 review

A 4.3-inch screen and a 146° lens, and EZVIZ is unusually direct about what it does not have: no motion detector and no night vision. It shows who is at the door when somebody rings or when you look.

The conclusion Honest about its own gaps, and one of the two largest screens here. Wrong for an unlit landing.

EZVIZ does something on this listing that almost nobody does: it names two features the product does not have. No motion detector. No night vision. Both stated plainly on the page.

Why that matters more than the specification

This category is full of products bought for something they do not do, and this is the one that says so first. Whatever else, you know what you are getting.

The absences, read properly

No motion detection means the viewer does not notify when somebody walks up. For an apartment in a shared corridor, that is arguably the right behavior — motion alerts there mean a notification for every neighbor, and most people disable them anyway. It also means nobody waiting outside your door is recorded.

No night vision is the harder limitation. In a block with lit common parts it is invisible. On an unlit external landing the screen shows very little after dark, and one of the viewers with infrared is the right choice instead.

What it does well

A 4.3-inch screen and a 146° view. Both are meaningfully better than the Yale viewers in this hub, and for somebody who is not going to use an app — an older parent, a household that wants a wall device and nothing more — the larger screen is the whole product.

Who it suits

A lit corridor and a household that wants something simple, large and quiet.

What reassures, and what does not

Strengths

  • 4.3-inch screen, tied with the Imou VD1 as the largest in this hub, and far easier to read than the 3.2-inch Yale viewers
  • 146° view, far wider than the 105° of the Yale viewers
  • EZVIZ states plainly that there is no motion sensor and no night vision
  • Simple enough for somebody who will not use an app

Compromises

  • No motion detection: it does not record an approach, only a caller
  • No night vision at all — no infrared and no light
  • 2 MP
  • A corridor with no lighting makes it close to useless after dark

The questions we are asked

Why buy something with no motion detection?

Because motion detection at an apartment door means a notification every time a neighbor walks past, and a great many people turn it off within a week. A device that only reacts when somebody actually calls is quieter by design. It is a real choice, not only a limitation — but it does mean nobody loitering is recorded.

How bad is having no night vision?

It depends entirely on the corridor. Inside a block with lit common parts, unnoticeable. On an unlit external landing, the screen shows very little after dark, and one of the viewers with infrared is the better choice.

Is EZVIZ right to state these absences?

It is unusual and it is to the company's credit. Two features are named on the listing as not present, which prevents exactly the disappointment that fills this category's reviews. We report it as the manufacturer states it.

Our score

8.1/ 10

Honest about its own gaps, and one of the two largest screens here. Wrong for an unlit landing.
