Customers consistently note the excellent camera quality, long battery life, and ease of use of the SoloCam S40. The solar panel is a frequently praised feature, enabling convenient and continuous operation. While some users experienced issues with notifications and concerns about water resistance, the positive feedback on features like night vision, motion detection, and the spotlight significantly outweighs the negative comments. The built-in storage, eliminating subscription fees, is another highly valued aspect.

Floodlight went out within 3 months immediately after the first snow fall in Colorado. Order number from Eufy is needed for filing out the support form so strongly advise purchasing the Geek Squad support due to the support issues even with a Eufy order number and the only on line issues described about this is the suspicions about these solo cams actually being waterproof.

We purchased two Eufy solar cameras. Front yard camera missed 4 deliveries. Best Buy tech came out to troubleshoot. Lag time did not pick him up from where he was parked on street until he was close to entering porch area. Back yard camera had same lag issues and did not pick him up at all after he entered back yard through side gate. Also spoke with Eufy which had us troubleshoot utilizing various settings. Eventually returned both cameras.

Bought these Cameras, They stopped working exactly after one year. There is no way to fix them. Contacted Eufy also they did not provide any support and any solution to fix the charging issue on cameras.
They are saying warranty is only for one year, They don't do anything. Provided receipts, device info any all details, Still they are don't want to do anything as warranty period is just passed. Never buy Eufy again.

Installed it 10 feet above ground level. The program shows how you can set up an area to have under surveillance. It looks nice, but appears to do nothing. Set it for maximum, yet when I entered the area, it picked me up just over 20 feet from the camera. Barely got a glimpse before I went out of view and into the garage. I can only imagine what would happen if I was moving quickly. When on all motion, it picks up something every few minutes, yet nothing shows.

I bought two of these.. the S230. This is probably the same one. Network connections are spotty, even with the cameras adjacent to the router and the router working fine with other devices. Neither will hold a charge even on sunny days.. the devices get plenty of sunlight. Maybe I can wire them to an outlet. It would be nice if they worked. Also, the Eufy Android app is cluttered with marketing.. it's hard to even get the battery status because it is buried in useless adware.
