"Compared to H.264 network cameras, H.265 network cameras can save more bandwidth and storage, when in the same image quality. Such technological breakthrough in the design must be simple and elegant, products are lightweight, easy to install, better meet customer demand; in addition, the camera owns excellent heat dissipation design, solved the overheat problem, ensures reliability and durability when the camera operates around the clock." said Gao Xing, product designer at Huawei.

Since the product launch, Huawei H.265 network cameras have been received high recognition and popularity from the market, this must thank to three main benefits that Huawei H.265 IP cameras can deliver.
