One thing that is a big concern in the world is safety and security. Especially with the cost of technology steadily going up and up. All it takes is for you to own a gaming PC and a console, and you are already talking about thousands of pounds. So protecting yourself is extra important. That’s where ieGeek comes in with their range of CCTV cameras. They got in touch and offered us the choice of a few different models. After looking at the specs, we decided to check out the ZS-GX4S, a security camera that comes with a small solar panel. Retailing at around £60 its a cheap and relatively feature-packed model. So let’s see why this might just be the upgrade that you didn’t think you’d need.
Protect and Serve
Security has never been high on my list of upgrades, but with the amount of stories you hear online about parcels going missing, it might just be more important than we think. Whether it’s a parcel going missing or even people pilfering parcels from your porch. So let’s find out some of the top features of the ZS-GX4S and see if it fits the bill for you.

Design Features
The most important part of a security camera is the camera quality. The ZS-GX4S features a 5MP high-quality colour night-vision camera. It has 4 IR lights that are able to sense ambient light and switch over to night vision, allowing you to see high-quality images, even at night. You can also record footage to be used as evidence, even at night time.
Coming with a solar panel the ZS-GX4S is self-charging of its built-in batteries. Allowing the unit to be 100% wireless and have an unending power supply. It’s easy to set up as well, it just needs to be placed in a position where it gets the sun for the most amount of time. Once you’ve installed it, and it’s a real doddle to install, you can control the camera with the free ieGeek Cam app that can be found on your mobile app store.

Once you have connected it all up, you have control to rotate the camera through 355 degrees on the horizon and 120 degrees vertically. Meaning there isn’t really anywhere this camera can’t see. With motion detection and alerts that get pinged straight to your phone. Once set up it will watch the front of your property and even set off the camera’s floodlight or even it’s siren. Just adding towards that extra security.
Paid Features
Whilst the vast majority of the features are all packaged up with the camera, there are also a couple of paid features you can sign up to. One of which is the intelligent recognition feature. Allowing your ZS-GX4S to recognise pets, cars and even packages.

After all is said and done this security camera will give you that peace of mind, especially as you can save multiple clips to the camera itself. Just plug in a microSD card with up to 128gb capacity and away you go!
Final Thoughts
So if you are looking for something to protect your property, ieGeek has you covered. Whether you decide to go with the ZS-GX4S or one of their other models, you will get features and all for a great price to fit whatever budget. All you need is a little bit of handiness to put it up, and honestly, it’s pretty foolproof. It comes with a bracket that you can drill holes in, and then the main camera just slots straight onto it. Easy Peasy.
