I have 8 x HDW2231R-ZS which are 2MP

So far they have been pretty good. Are these still a decent camera to go for?

One of them doesn't need to be good quality at all, but for one I'd like at the very least equal quality to these

Thoughts? This is going on Blue Iris

It's a great camera, especially for the price. 4MP Dahua have come out that challenge and occasionally surpass the long-respected Starlight 2MP cameras. For a few more bucks, at least investigate the 5442. There are a few reviews here for it in the Dahua forum.
 
I get confused with model numbers, but there is a Series 2 version of the 2231 that does better than the original:

I'd answer that differently, saying the 5442 series "beats the pants off" of the 2MP starlights. I own several of both.
