Good picture quality.but most annoying thing when the power went out while we were having a new air con installed the anti theft alarms went off. I was at work and my wife called but I couldnt turn it off as it was linked to the wifi which was now powered down. Also does not zoom in at all so a bit rubbish. Also it uses your data to upload the clips so another cost if you have a bad phone plan for data usage. Pluses for this system are the batteries which last a long time. But not as long as claimed as going by battery loss will last only 20 weeks not 52 as claimed. But still good. Also records only small clips so not good if you want to go back and check stuff as it doesnt record everything and also having issue with it being wireless as it only seems to be able to ...

Only saving grace for this system is you dont need to climb into the roof space and install any wiring although I am considering doing this as this system is not for me. Cost also pretty high.

The claims of the batteries lasting a year are preposterous unless perhaps the cameras are barely recording doing any work. In the eight months I've had mine I've charged three of the cameras twice and one of them four times. They work more in the summer when there are leaves on trees causing shadows that move and get picked up by the motion detection. But if I make the motion less sensitive, I'll miss seeing the motion that matters so I just deal with it.But once I've learned the quirks of the system and gotten past a few limitations of the app I don't like, I really like the system overall. The video quality is great. There are no hidden fees. There are no monthly fees necessary and the app is easy to use and doesn't require unnecessary steps to waste time to ...

Bought two eufyCam 2 Pros two years ago and they both just started malfunctioning right around the same time. In fact, on the same day. Interesting. Even if there isn't a grand conspiracy going on, I spent $400 on two cameras and now I'm faced with the prospect of spending another $400 on two new cameras to replace these.Tech support was of little to no help -- attempted to troubleshoot before I called and they were basically "looks like you've tried everything, you're out of warranty, sorry about your bad luck".Please think through your purchase knowing there's a very real chance that eufy makes either expensive but unreliable cameras or intentionally planned obsolescence cameras and will not stand behind their product.

This system worked great when first installed. This was until Eufy updated their firmware & then the Homebase stopped storing videos. I’ve been in contact with Eufy & they have no solution to the issue created by them & have suggested I return the item for a refund.So now after purchasing this item back in June 2021, I have to try & get my money refunded from Supercheap.Any reasonable person would expect this item to last longer than it has & if I’d known about these sorts of issues before purchasing I never would’ve made this purchase.Make sure you check the multiple Eufy groups on Facebook before buying these products & you’ll see how bad they are.
Pros- Easy to setup- Battery seems ok after 2 weeks, but I only enable at night or when away.- Good quality video- Stores on the home base, so no cloud subscription- easy to use app that lets you access your videos from everywhere.- feels very solid- I haven’t tested the waterproof rating.Cons- relies on the app, which will need continuous support from the vendor. If they go bust or decide to update the app to no longer support older devices your investment will quickly become unusable. There may be a future subscription on its way.- User forums are full of complaints for an unfixed a software flaw where anyone can hiding the videos from the home base by resetting the Bluetooth connection from the button on the camera then stealing it to prevent you ...

This is apparently a designed feature, but given at least one camera in my installation will be in easy reach, this invalidates its purpose.
The cameras have been very reliable, even in the north eastern winter in minus degrees. The battery did not waver and I can still get a good six months out of heavy use before having to recharge again.Set up was super easy connecting the camera to the homebase. The range from the homebase to an individual camera is about 150 feet, which was more than adequate to maintain a steady streaming in 2K around my entire property. Some of the motion detection, especially at night, was a little excessive but was able to “dial it down“ in the app for each individual camera. I really like the strong magnetic connections to the mounting, as this allows to flexibly reposition cameras. I even just plopped it on to the mailbox just for fun.My only gripe is with the computer ... MoreThe cameras have been very reliable, even in the north eastern winter in minus degrees.

I even just plopped it on to the mailbox just for fun.My only gripe is with the computer software which does not allow you the same flexibility as via the phone app. You cannot call up the cameras video feed on your computer. They need to work on this.Finally, when I did have an issue with one of the cameras, I called customer service and I received a replacement camera within a few days, no questions asked. You have to love that!
Setting up the homebase and cameras through the app is a straight forward and simple process. The 2K resolution and night cameras provide a very clear picture.Zone activity settings are not too bad and could maybe be better with multipoint areas rather than a flat square shape.The outdoor bracket didn’t provide the required angle for the camera when mounted inverted on the underhang of the roof. I had to buy a 90deg bracket to install the mount vertically as if it was wall mounted.I added the smart doorbell/camera which was no problem at all. Additional cameras can be added and any video footage can be stored in the homevase’s 16gb memory. Th option to add your own ext hard drive for extra storage is available too.I’m extremely happy with the product.The ...

I didn't want my home videos in the 'cloud'. I mean, where's that? Who owns the images? Who may be watching them. I want my videos here in my control. Last december my catalytic converter was stolen from my Prius. And again in February- that's right, two months later. We have gangs of low life just driving by, they stop at the house for a minute, then they take off. Same cars, same two cars. With that plastic cover on the license plates - makes it hard to read at an angle and can't get a photo. So I got this kit. Setup was a snap. And I was able to get long micro USB cables and wire up the front camera so I don't have to think about charging it. I am going to do the rear door camera next. This is a good start to a reasonable system; the cameras are as much a ... MoreI didn't want my home videos in the 'cloud'. I mean, where's that? Who owns the images? Who may be watching them.

And I was able to get long micro USB cables and wire up the front camera so I don't have to think about charging it. I am going to do the rear door camera next. This is a good start to a reasonable system; the cameras are as much a deterrent as they are a recording device. I put that front camera above the garage in a very visible location. Next I will be ordering a motion detector for inside the garage, where the Prius now is. Add a few door sensors and maybe a kit with the doorbell and another homebase 2 and I think I will have a reasonable setup. The best part is, most people think the videos are in the cloud so messing with the camera makes no sense- the videos are already uploaded where they can't get to them. If you can wire up the home base via ethernet, that works best as you don't get as much delay in playback so try to do that if possible. I also chose to angle the cameras in a way where the front one has sensitivity out to the sidewalk, so it's triggered and recording by the time the person is on my driveway.
I purchased the 4 camera system and love it. There is no monthly fees although they do offer 24/7 monitoring service where they monitor your cameras and call you or the police when there is suspicious activity. I might consider ordering that service. Regarding my setup: I am hosting these cameras in Apple HomeKit. It notifies me and my wife when it detects motion. I has a built in alarm that would startle any would be criminal lurking around my property at night. It records clips of any motion detected and always send notification to my phone. It has geocoding that allows it to switch automatically to AWAY mode when we are away from out home. The video quality is crystal clear even at night. Home Kit reduces the resolution to 1080p but it is still superior quality ... MoreI purchased the 4 camera system and love it.

Home Kit reduces the resolution to 1080p but it is still superior quality video. It can distinguish between Cars, People and Animals. You can set the system to only react movement in specific customizable zones as well as ignore animals or other objects while reacting to people. What was really remarkable to me was the fact that I was able to mount a camera on my shed that is pretty far from my house and still have a strong wireless connection to the base. In addition, even thought the camera is mounted on the my shed, giving me a full view of my entire house, I am still able to digitally zoom in for closeups. This is really an awesome security camera system!PS: The entire system is super easy to setup. The packaging was of high quality. The cameras themselves are solid and heavy. It shows that they did not skimp on materials. So far, I have had the cameras installed for about a month with no issues. I researched for a long time, watched many YouTube videos comparing. various systems, but I believe this system is the best available. I f you are looking for something that's easy to install, works if Home Kit, Alexa and others, and comes with zero monthly service fees, look no further!
Bought these cameras and initially they were great. They were easy to set up and charge. I set them up and boom I had security around my homes perimeter. Hear the rub. They give you a 1yr warranty. How long do the battery’s initially stay charged? Roughly a year. Good luck after that initial charge getting them to charge fully again. Every single one of my cameras is having battery issues. I am just outside my warranty. I’ve looked it up and I am not the only one experiencing this issue. Their solution is do give me a 30% discount to spend more money on their products. What a joke. If every camera is having an issue and others are reporting the same problem then it’s an issue. Just google “my eufy camera battery won’t charge”. Great initially which is why it has ...

They don’t back their product because they know after the year they’ve taken your money and don’t care about the customer.
