eufy - eufyCam 3, 5-Outdoor Wireless 4K Solar Powered Security Cameras with HomeBase 3 - White

I had Blink cameras before and these are a big upgrade! With the solar I don't have to worry about changing out the batteries that happened a lot with my blink cameras. With these, they stay charged well with the sun. The app works really good with retrieving the videos and only a couple seconds of delay from the time something is being detected to the notification. It was very easy to set up, the app walks you though the whole process. Night view and day view is amazing and very detective.

The video quality of the cameras are enough to see cars from 100 feet with no issues. They do well at night. The AI offered with the cameras works well with identifying specific faces when compared to other products I have tried. Also, the camera gets about 3 hours each day of sun at least and has no issues staying charged, even during multiple weeks of clouds and rain.

Clear sharp picture. Easy setup. Be aware of sunlight exposure. Most of mine are under the eaves. They do not get a lot of direct sunlight. The battery maintains + - 14%. The one in full sunlight for 6 hours stays at 100% I also bought the full system. The home hub is easy to setup, and you can add your own 2.5 inch drive to increase storage space. In the attached picture, the corner of the fence is about 35 feet away.

I bought this set to replace my old Arlo camera system. Overall I think it’s a great product that is reliable for its purpose of motion detection recording. Setup and installation is a breeze. Charging the camera from out the box takes about 6 hours using USB-C and a 20W charger. You must mount and position the cameras according to the instructions provided to ensure that it charges by solar power. I have not had a camera die on me in the past six months and the motion detection has been spot on, you can fine tune each cameras motion detection setting to suit your needs. The EufyBase hub supports a removable SSD hard drive which you have to purchase separately to expand your recording storage otherwise you get a limited amount of local free storage and the system automatically deletes old recordings as storage space is fills up. You can opt to use cloud storage to save recordings for a monthly price. Video recording quality is crisp and clear in 4k with options to customize the quality, the built in AI face detection feature is also helpful for the motion detection notifications. Night vision works well on these cameras and there are options to customize your night settings, the integrated motion lights are very bright. The audio clarity on these cameras can use some improvement. There are moments where the audio that is recorded up sounds nothing like what is actually heard or it’s sounds just too distorted. These cameras are meant to be accessed through the Eufy app, there is a website for camera access if you prefer to access that way but you cannot view past recordings on the website as they are stored locally on the EufyBase and not in the cloud. The mobile app offers plenty of options to customize your cameras and setup schedules. Between the mobile app and the website you cannot simultaneously play all cameras at once, you are limited to one live view per camera. Overall it’s a better system than what I previously had for the past 10+ years. If you don’t have electrical wires to power your cameras then you should consider this product.

Love these cameras. The setup was easy and they stay charged well. I have been having them for about 6 weeks with one camera not getting any sunlight and I haven’t had to charge it yet. The reason I had it a 4 star instead of a 5 star was because it doesn’t record all the time. Other that I really enjoy the cameras.
