The EZVIZ C6N is a home security camera designed to help you monitor your home remotely. It features a 1080p full HD camera with a 360-degree horizontal field of view and a 90-degree vertical field of view, allowing you to view every corner of the room where it’s placed. The camera also has night vision capabilities, allowing you to monitor your home even in low light conditions.
The C6N is also equipped with motion detection technology, which alerts you through the EZVIZ app on your smartphone when it detects any motion within its field of view. The camera can also be set to track motion automatically, so you can monitor the movement of any objects or people in the room.
After having been available for some time in the brand’s familiar white, the camera is now being offered in black. What’s more, it’s currently listed as low as $25 at Amazon, down from the already-great $40.
Tell me about the C6N features
In addition to its monitoring capabilities, the C6N features two-way audio, allowing you to communicate with anyone in the room through the camera using your smartphone. The camera can be controlled remotely through the EZVIZ app, so you can pan, tilt, and zoom the camera to get a closer look at any activity in the room.
The EZVIZ C6N is equipped with night vision capabilities, which allow it to capture clear video footage in low light or dark conditions. The camera uses infrared (IR) technology to illuminate the room with invisible infrared light, which is then captured by the camera’s sensor to create a monochrome image.
The camera’s IR range is up to 10 meters, which means it can capture clear images of objects or people within 10 meters of the camera, even in complete darkness. The camera also has an IR-cut filter that automatically switches on and off to adjust to the lighting conditions, ensuring that the camera captures clear images both during the day and at night.
In addition to its night vision capabilities, the C6N has a wide dynamic range (WDR) function that helps to enhance the visibility of images in low-light conditions.
The EZVIZ C6N stores video footage and images on a microSD card that is inserted into the camera; it supports microSD cards up to 256GB capacity.
In addition to local storage, the camera also supports cloud storage through the EZVIZ cloud service. With cloud storage, the camera uploads video footage and images to the cloud, where they can be accessed and downloaded from anywhere using the EZVIZ app.
The EZVIZ cloud service offers different storage plans that allow you to store footage for longer periods of time, depending on your needs. The cloud service also provides additional features such as intelligent alerts and notifications, which can be set up to notify you when the camera detects motion or sound.
Who is the target user for the C6N?
The EZVIZ C6N is targeted towards individuals or households who are looking for an affordable and easy-to-use home security camera that can be monitored remotely. It can be particularly useful for people who want to keep an eye on their home while they are away at work, on vacation, or even just in another room of the house.
The camera’s easy-to-use app and two-way audio features make it a great choice for parents who want to keep an eye on their children or pets, or for individuals who want to monitor their elderly relatives or loved ones who require special care. Additionally, the camera’s motion detection capabilities make it a useful tool for monitoring the security of your home and deterring intruders.

Google has begun rolling out a new enhanced tool finder bar at the top of its workspace products including, Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides. While Google likes to call it an enhanced finder bar, it’s essentially a search bar capable of accepting typed commands. Adding search to its products is nothing new for Google.
The company knows its strength and incorporates search wherever possible, and in apps that are overflowing with options like these, having a way to sift through and find exactly what you need is a welcomed addition. However, the real game changer here is the ability to type in commands and make edits to your documents from the bar.
What kind of commands can it complete? Here are some of the examples Google gave, you’ll be able to insert or remove columns and rows, switch number formats to money, enable alternating row colors, freeze columns and rows, and more all from your keyboard.
Normally, this would require digging through menus to locate the proper option, but with the enhanced finder bar, you’ll be able to search for the appropriate command/setting while suggestions pop up, select it, and make the change immediately.
Typing in, delete column A and watching it instantly vanish seems a lot more intuitive than clicking and browsing through endless options. How many times have you been editing a document in the past knowing exactly what you wanted to change, only to spend a few minutes browsing just to locate the setting. Google’s new enhanced finder bar is here to change all of that, and what makes this even more powerful is how it understands natural language.Â
Whether you’re working on a term paper for class or a presentation for a client, tools like this can help make it easier and more efficient while saving you time, frustration, and money in the long run. The enhanced finder bar is rolling out in stages to all users of Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides. If you don’t see it yet, then don’t worry, Google likes to roll out features in stages and it should show up for you sooner or later.
With Google I/O 2023 only a couple of weeks away, it’s no surprise we’re starting to see more details about what devices may make their debut at the conference. The latest leak comes from WinFuture and reveals three colors the Pixel 7a will be offered in, as well as the matching cases. As seen in the renders, Google will offer the Pixel 7a in three pastel colors this year, including Carbon Grey, Cotton White, and Arctic Blue.
Further inspection of the renders reveals antenna lines on the sides, meaning it’s likely that the Pixel 7a will feature a metal frame. The back also appears to be glass or perhaps plastic, which would align with the rumors that Google could be adding wireless charging to its midrange lineup this year.
From looking at the renders, it’s clear there won’t be much of a change in the design with the Pixel 7a. It still sports a center cut-out for the front-facing camera, and there is only a minor tweak to the camera visor on the rear of the device. Recent leaks point to this being a dual camera setup on the back of the Pixel 7a, with it being a pair of 12MP sensors or possibly a 64MP sensor in the mix. The front-facing camera is supposedly a 10.8MP sensor.
The display is rumored to be a full HD 6.1-inch AMOLED panel with a 90Hz refresh rate, while on the inside, the Pixel 7A will be powered by a Tensor G2 chip and 8GB of RAM. When it comes to storage options, users will have a choice between either 128GB of 256GB space. Additionally, with it being a Pixel device, it’s only natural that it will run the latest version of Google’s OS out of the box, Android 13.
It is expected that Google will show off the Pixel 7a on May 10 at its annual developer conference Google I/O 2023. Along with the reveal, it has been rumored that we’ll see the Pixel 7a price increase to $499. This would be a price jump of $50 over the previous model, the Pixel 6a.
All of this is purely speculation and the details could change leading up to the big event. We won’t know anything for certain until Google debuts the Pixel 7a on the stage in a couple of weeks.

The monitor is lightweight and easily portable, making it a great option for on-the-go professionals, students, and travelers.
The monitor can be used as a secondary display for a laptop or as a display for a gaming console, providing users with added flexibility.
Thoughts and Conclusion
In terms of connectivity, the monitor has a USB Type-C port that supports DisplayPort and Power Delivery, as well as an HDMI port for connecting to other devices. It can be powered by a USB Type-C cable or a power adapter (included in the package).
The monitor has a slim and lightweight design, making it easy to carry around. It also comes with a folding stand that can be adjusted to different angles. The monitor has a metal frame and a matte finish.
The INNOCN 13.3″ OLED Portable Monitor 13K1F is compatible with a wide range of devices, including laptops, smartphones, and gaming consoles, and supports Windows, MacOS, Android, and iOS.
The INNOCN 13K1F Portable Monitor delivers exceptional image quality thanks to its 13.3-inch OLED display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels.
The OLED display provides vibrant colors, deep blacks, and excellent contrast. Additionally, the monitor supports HDR content, which provides a wider range of colors and brightness levels. The display has excellent clarity, color accuracy, and overall picture quality. It’s so sharp and lush that it practically begs to be touched.
The portable monitor can be used as a secondary monitor for a laptop, as a display for a gaming console, or even as a TV for streaming content. This flexibility can make it an attractive option for anyone who wants to be able to use their display in a variety of settings.
Because it is lightweight and easy to transport, the INNOCN 13K1F can be an ideal choice for professionals who need to work on-the-go, students who need to study in different locations, or pretty much anyone who likes to enjoy content while traveling.
While the INNOCN 13K1F Portable Monitor has many strengths, it is not without its flaws. The stand, for instance, is not as stable as we might like. This could certainly be a concern for those who plan to travel frequently with the monitor or use it in professional settings.
Sure, it attaches quickly and easily via the magnet but it doesn’t take all that much to disrupt. It allows for a ton of helpful angles and orientations, but it would be nice if there was a bit more of a bite.
Additionally, sound is okay in the built-in side speakers but you will want to use Bluetooth or whatever speakers your main device provides if you’re looking for music or extended audio. Plus, if you use the monitor in a portrait orientation, you will be covering one of the speakers anyhow.
Lastly, I would have really loved some sort of protective sleeve or carrying pouch/case for the monitor. Given the stand removes so easily I think it makes sense to have something that lets me tote these around with me when on the go.
All in all, the INNOCN 13K1F is a high-quality and versatile portable monitor that is ideal for professionals, gamers, and anyone who needs a portable display with excellent picture quality. Its price tag may make especially attractive to users looking for a secondary OLED display. And as for those quibbles and complaints, they may matter little in the big scheme of things.
