eufy security, eufyCam 2C Pro Wireless Home Security Add-on Camera, 2K Resolution, 180-Day Battery Life, HomeKit Compatibility, IP67 Weatherproof, Night Vision, and No Monthly Fee.

Really great at detecting motion in the area of surveillance. Picture quality is good and this camera was easy to Install and set up.

My philosophy when it comes to home security is that at best it keeps the honest people out. So when I was looking into security cameras I was most interested of knowing when someone was messing around my property. I bought three of these to put around the house. With various features and links with my phone I am able to monitor my house while I am at home or away. The cameras work best within 20ft. After that details begin to get blurry.

Do I like these cameras for their app functionality yes! Is their picture quality even close to 4k or even 1080p at best? HECK NO! And what the heck is this bs… when I try and enable 2k resolution I get this message “Since you have enabled NAS or subscribed to cloud storage, the recording will only support 1080P Full HD”. Umm wha…? Ok. You left that out in the ad Eufy! Also, if you have any need to continuously stream on this camera, forget about it, it times- out like many wireless cameras often do. Reolink are the only ones I have found they don’t. But this Pro C is an all-out marketing scheme!

Eufy is owned by Anker which is a Chinese company. I understand these days that people aren’t concerned about this but you should be. If you must get this camera then make sure you get the HomeKit version out the box with the Apple HomeKit specific scan code. If you don’t have an apple product then stay the heck away as Apple is the least of all evils when it comes to US companies protecting you from China. Also, you must, unfortunately, connect this camera to a highly suspect hub device which connects to your router. Now you know.

Super easy installation, long battery life, two way communication, locally save storage without subscription fees, sufficient motion detection, siren alert, and spotlight feature. Works really well in the combination with the homebase to unit and the doorbell camera system

We use this camera to keep watch on our camper. Work great, I can see whats going on out there when Im at home. Excellent night vision , woul highly recommend.

I purchased the Eufy 2C kit with 4 cameras in August 2020. Then 2 weeks later, I purchased 2 more cameras, and their wireless doorbell camera. Everything has been working well for about 6 months. Then it stopped being able to differentiate between humans, dogs, even our American flag was being detected as a person. But, we made the best of it. Then, exactly 1 month after my warranty expired, the doorbell cam stopped accepting a charge. I asked Eufy for replacement, and they denied me (response from Eufy below). So I went back to Amazon and spent another $120 on a new wireless doorbell camera from Eufy. It connected, but thats when we realized we werent getting any notifications anymore from any of the cameras, we looked at the app and noticed nothing was recording for approximately 2 weeks. Then I went to the update log and noticed that on September 30, they pushed an update to my homebase 2. Thats when it stopped detecting motion and recording anything. I have tried reconnecting numerous times. I cleared out the data on the fixed internal memory, but that didnt help. From the app, I was unable to make any settings changes, as I would get Fail to request (6) error. Upon researching that error, I found suggestions to remove the homebase 2 from the app and start over. I did that, but now it just goes from red to blinking blue, and never goes stable. I checked my router, and it is connected at 100MBps, and is getting an IP address of 192.168.254.81 (the previous IP before it stopped working was 192.168.254.80, so I know its talking to the router). But the homebase 2 will not connect. I have been spending hours today reading through community forum posts, and the ONLY people that have resolved this issue, are customers that Eufy (Anker) warranty replaced their homebase 2. After they got the new one from Eufy (Anker), it started working. This company obviously doesnt care about its customers at all, so I really dont want to give them even more money. But Im already so invested into this system, that I decided to look and see how much a new homebase 2 unit costs. Guess what? You cant buy one. You can only buy KITS with MORE cameras OR home security. So I either throw this all in the garbage and spend another $1000 on a different companys system, or I spend yet another $165 on one of the kits, just so I can get a homebase 2. I reached out to customer service and offered to write this review on every single ad they have on Amazon until they either replace or repair this unit, OR I get tired enough of typing, or I feel like I got my $1,020 (and Ill probably spend another $165 on Monday and get that stupid kit, just so I can have my cameras working again, which is really bothering me). So I just HOPE that my review helps at least ONE person to choose another security camera provider. Oh yeah, Ive also been a premium cloud subscriber of theirs for the past 13 months. Heres the response from Eufy/Anker customer service MANAGER: Dear Scott, This is Shane, Customer Service Manager of Eufy. Our apologies again. We would like to try to make up for the disappointment in this situation, as we appreciate that you have had this product a long time and really enjoyed it. While there isnt anything to be done about the warranty, I am able to offer you 20% off the original price for a future purchase of another Eufy product valued at $200 or less. Just send me the order number from your next purchase and I can issue 20% back once the order has gone through. Please order it from our official store in order for us to process the partial refund. Hope you take advantage of this offer and give Eufy products another chance. Wish you the best in your future purchases!

Works great, easy setup

View is a bit fish-eyed but not terrible

Never say never? We were told our data never left local storage. Eufy lied about only using local storage, and is trying to whitewash the other security flaws. I cannot recommend this product, due to the unresolved security concerns and the broken trust with yet another misleading and dishonest company. If you have any Eufy Cameras inside your home, you need to disable or unplug them yesterday! January 17th, 2023 Update: Eufy reached put to me regarding my negative reviews on two of their products, and offered a full refund. I was instructed to simply reply with full refund. I did this, and now they are refusing to follow-through. They reached out to me! Whether by malicious intent or incompetence, I highly recommend avoiding Eufy entirely.
