eufyCam 2C 2-Cam Kit, Security Camera Wireless Outdoor, Home Security System, HomeKit Compatibility, 1080p HD, IP67, Night Vision, Motion Only Alert, No Monthly Fee

Best choice and very reasonably priced. Motion sensor, real time video, and you have audio. Easy to install and set up, plus good picture with no subscription needed.

The cameras are extremely clear and focused. Very easy to install.

I have waited over a month to do this review because I wanted to be fair and give it a chance to perform. I will start off with 6 months of battery will ONLY happen if the camera is in a low traffic area with the CORRECT SETTINGS. A high traffic area like under my garage for example, (and I still have all the settings tweaked to perform optimally with still top alerts and abilities to do its job, I.E catch the bad guy or see what is happening when you are not there and that includes : motion detection on (24/7) 20 second event recordings, Its set to alert me for ppl in the day and ALL motion at night. The Following Camera preformed as so. Above Garage camera was at 20% after 7weeks, to be fair this was the most used camera and was set off a lot by my GF and even myself. And I was still learning how to use them and find the best settings. Front door camera was at 38% after 7 weeks , at that rate it would probably need a charge after about the 16-18 week mark. The Backyard camera was at 48% Obviously this camera is set off the least.. And could possibly go 5-6 months. I could actually see them going even longer if you used some of the other features that come with the devices software. (Geofencing, ect) I did notice some reviews were saying they wish this system had geofencing, I guess whenever they bought their systems that feature was not out. They have took tremendous steps from what they use to be (only know this because of what I have read) To what they are now.. I really like the system, I have 3 camera and a base station, I only have one complaint and that is I wish the batteries were easily removable and had a larger MAH.(they would last longer) But as a whole they work EXCELLENT, have NEVER missed a single event, nor failed for some stupid reason.. I am very happy with them Btw I have NO IDEA who that person was that's in the video I uploaded. I wasn't at home and got a notification on my phone saying "person spotted at front door" I love the fact the cameras are so quickly , bc if you notice she is walking FAST...

I have needed a security system at my home for some time. I have a 3-camera NEST wireless system at work, and it's pretty easy to use, but you have to keep the wireless cameras plugged on 24/7 in order to record full-time. Kind of defeats the purpose of "wireless". The NEST cameras are not quite as simple as the Eufy cameras. The NEST cameras are not as accurate as the Eufy system either. I have both systems set up to only send notifications from the area inside the camera's view that I select. Both systems are set up in the same manner with this. However, the NEST cameras miss a lot of movement within the area that I have set up to notify me. The Eufy never misses. The best feature is that in order to store video with NEST, you have to pay an additional monthly fee. The Eufy system records to a wifi drive. It can store 6 months worth of video and snapshots that you can recall, save to a device, disc, flash drive or whatever as well as share it. The quality of the NEST cameras is good, but the Eufy cameras are sharper and much more colorful. NEST can zoom tighter, but the resolution breaks down very quickly when you zoom. Far more than the Eufy does. In conclusion, Irecommend the Eufy system for several reasons. 1) Sharp and colorful images that hold resolution very well as you zoom. 2) accuracy. 3) Free storage (on the device that is included). and no hidden fees. 4) Cameras are truly wireless. You only need to plug them in to charge, which looks like it'll be in about 6 months. 5) Price. 149 for 2 cameras and the storage device. And finally, ease of setup. I hope to have this system for quite some time.

I've had three Arlo Pro 2 cameras for several years now and was fairly happy with them. They advertise "High Definition" video and when I saw the actual recordings, they're more like 800x600 or maybe 1024x768. Detection is slow and sometimes I catch people walking away from the house, but not approaching. Arlo Pro 2 was the last model that allowed 2 weeks of free online storage. All Newer Arlos require a subscription service to be even minimally useful (you can't view videos when away from the house if you don't subscribe). Batteries lasted a month, maybe two, which I thought was great. Arlo's online access has 2-factor which RARELY works first try. I have tried 3 push-notifications that never worked, and resorted to 2ndary option of SMS, which usually works. Many times, immediately after logging into the app or the website, I'm immediately logged out and told I need to log in again. Arlo frustrates me regularly. I got some Eufy cameras for additional surveillance of my car and front door. Video quality is better than Arlo, but still not what I would call HiDef like a HiDef movie or TV show. Different settings may yield higher quality, but I'm opting for battery life since video quality is good enough. The batteries TRULY last 180 days, which is AMAZING, considering they're capturing over 2,000 20-second video clips during that timeframe (using Optimal Battery Life setting). I can view videos anywhere for free. Online storage goes back at least 30 days!! I can set up an RTSP NAS device (like Ubiquiti - $200) to store videos locally, or you can use an SD card--but this card can't be removed and used in your computer to retrieve videos. You must access videos through the base station to decrypt them. They don't have easy-to-use local USB storage like Arlo, which is unfortunate. I've had a couple instances where our car left the parking spot and was not detected, but I get a notification when it then comes back--or the person at the front door has 10 or 20 seconds of their presence missing between clips or before/after a clip, but this is rare. I also have a notification for our front door (sound set to "Knock Knock") which is REALLY handy and instantaneous in most cases. Someone walks up and my phone alerts "Knock Knock" even before the doorbell rings (especially useful when deliveries are left). This is really cool when you're on vacation and you get a knock knock to find out a package was left--so you notify a neighbor to pick it up for you. At this point, Eufy is my recommendation for home cameras when compared to Arlo. I was given some newer Arlo cameras and was completely disappointed when I discovered I needed a subscription to use them, and the batteries only lasted a week or so. My years-old Arlo Pro 2 batteries still last a month, for cryin' out loud. Eufy's battery life of 4 months minimum (near my street parking, where every passing car triggers it) to 6 months (front door) is just amazing. Video quality is great--not excellent. Detection is really good, too. Storage, access, and usability meets all my needs.

I’ve worked in the electronic security field for the past 7 years. I want to start by saying that, because I’ve seen some pretty advanced systems for big businesses, that I won’t mention here for security reasons. That should help validate this review for anyone who’s unsure about this product. Would this work for a multi billion dollar company? No. For your everyday household on the other hand, this product is incredible. No hassle install, loaded with features, and innovative (user friendly) application interface. IR - works beautifully at night. Quality is that of Axis cameras, which one of those cameras goes for about the price of this whole bundle itself in comparison. Video quality - crystal clear, even when streaming and not viewing recorded. Pro tip, if your stream is of bad quality, download a clip to compare. Sometimes it’s network related, and real time video is not a good indicator of how it actually records, because that’s dependent on bandwidth. That said, I haven’t noticed a difference between the two, which is a sign of good bandwidth and quality network hardware on these devices. Motion - I setup a motion mask on all cameras. I want to be notified, but not for cars going by. That said, I’m still tweaking the motion mask. This is the only area that’s given me any trouble, but I think it’s because I’m only allowed to make square shapes. I could be wrong, maybe you can make other shapes. I’ll update if I figure that out (only have created motion masks on mobile app, so need to try web app next to verify). No monthly fees - this is where Eufy has the market in my opinion. Have you ever heard of camera licensing? Well…every major VMS (video management system) company, that is reputable, charges a “license” fee (recurring charge) per camera channel. That adds up over time. The fact this was a one and done payment, and it has all of this functionality, really caught my eye. Now that I’ve tested, and can verify its quality, I’d recommend this system to anyone. Already have recommended it to my fellow security industry colleagues for their own homes. Well done Eufy! Thanks for making a quality product, with no monthly fees!

I had looked at several systems for over a year and liked this one the best. It arrived quickly and I had it up and running in under an hour. Easy setup of the base station and individual cameras once the app was downloaded. The app is easy to navigate and fairly intuitive, even for those of us not raised on computers. The live picture quality is great for daytime video. The infrared is good in b/w however the light for color infrared is quite poor. The cameras have a great field of view. The provided camera mounts are usable but I ordered four aftermarket mounts for about $20 that were well worth the wait. The batteries are great as advertised but in high traffic areas they will not last six months. I've had this system for two months and the front facing camera is at 30%. I'm not disappointed because it has been the most active zone and will probably last another month then I'll recharge the camera. No new batteries to order and buy. The one issue I had was resolved quickly when I reached out to costumer service. Overall it is a great surveillance system. The spotlight and motion detection needs a little attention. I'm glad I bought it and I recommend it. Update: 2020 thru Jan. 2023 Overall I'm still very happy with the system. It was and is user friendly. The battery life is still great comparatively speaking, they do not last six months unless there is very little activity. There are two issues that are troubling. 1) the human detection feature is lacking. Many, many times I have come home to find a package on my front porch with NO video footage of the delivery. A majority of times it catches the delivery persons back side as they are almost out of the "zone". So much for a facial identity on a criminal act. 2) I keep wondering why a stand alone system would go offline without internet. Yes, I know the cameras are wireless. After further research, I found that Eufy routes the video through thier servers and then back to the home base for my storage. I wanted total privacy of my recordings, however this is simply NOT the case. No, I don't really have anything to worry over but that was one of the selling points. Unless I use a hard wired system I will not have total control over my recordings. Just some points to ponder from someone who has questioned the "facts". It is still an economical system and one that is so easy that even I had it up and running quickly. : )

10/29/25: We have discovered yet another glitch that makes them unusable. If you are taping in live view and pull down the menu on your phone to press the dimmer button, this camera will disconnect from your RECORDED LIVE VIEW AND ERASE ALL SAVED RECORDED VIDEO! IT WILL RESET ITSELF AND ALL VIABLE FOOTAGE IS LOST. GAR. BAGE! Another foreign Company stealing from the American people saying this is security. It is NOT A SECURITY SYSTEM! IT'S JUST NOT RELIABLE. 1010/25: Back button erased all recorded live view event. Each time we find a crappy thing we are updating our 1 star review of tears crappy cameras that are as worthless as the app that won't control them. 09/06/26: In order for live view to be viewed, you MUST press continue over and over and over and over and over and over! If you forget, any recorded footage is lost. It does not save the footage that you so meticulously recorded during your alleged security event. Eufy "security" erases that vital footage!!!!!! PIP, NOPE. IT HIJACKS YOUR ENTIRE PHONE SCREEN. YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DO ANYTHING EXCEPT LOOK AT YOUR EUFY camera. You cannot set a passive live view while a security event is happening because it is going to force you to keep hitting continue continue continue continue continue continue continue. There is no camera sync feature. You cannot record continuously from one trashy er Eufy camera to the other. Only one camera can record at a time and it will in effect lock out your second camera from recording anything. This is not a proper SECURITY system. A proper security camera includes a BANDWITH that doesn't require you to press continue continue continue continue continue continue in live view. It's laughable. Who would pay a subscription for this janky system? The main things this camera needs are not to take over your microphone when it is clearly disabled; your system doesn't honor the settings I've implemented. I don't want advertising on my security screens. I don't want solicitations on my security screens. It's perverse and adverse to anything security related to have this crap on the viewing screens duh. To not take over the entire phone system when in use would be a viable system. You really need a dedicated phone just to operate this TRASH. I wished people would use the cameras AND THE EUFY APP for 3 months b4 writing a review here. They are misleading and fleecing the American people over at the Eufy camera place. The cameras are useless without the 3.6 star useless app on Play. Thank you. 06/28/25: After another disastrous update we are now having to log in over and over and over again. I don't know why Amazon allows this on its platform! STOP BUYING THIS CRAP, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED BY A 2 YR USER. These cameras need an app and this app is not functional! Now it's signing us out of their app randomly. The developers are ghosting us and won't respond to our camera viewing issues. They keep calling us "dear" and it is very condescending in the response when we are seriously needing assistance. This is a money grab and I wished y'all would look at the 3.9 score it has in Google Play. We are disgruntled with this Company for not responding to our queries about their crappy product. One man has 39 cameras since 2021 and they are unusable because they are app controlled and the app isn't functional. I don't understand why Anker won't help us. 06/24/25: With each update this camera perform badly. Now you cannot disable the microphone. It takes over each time you open the app to use the camera. Also, it won't stop running in the background no matter how many times you disable that permission. It will write over other apps when you have that feature disabled. It will not stop asking you to press continue continue continue continue in LIVE VIEW as if we're dumb enough not to realize we want live view when pressed, duh. They are stealing our money for this subpar junk. It will not save the recorded live view footage if continue is not continuously pressed over and over and over again. In short, this is an intrusive camera system that is NOT VIABLE FOR SECURITY. 06/05/2025: Today we were away and heard the dreaded chirp of a notification in a sensitive area. Let's open the app only to see an attempt on the property but because I didn't hit CONTINUE, the footage is lost forever. Trash app that is not for security events. 05/18/25: -No internet in an outage, no EufyCam security system. -$200 of stolen money to purchase an alleged security camera system that doesn't save vital footage. - It has a 3.6 star rating in Play Store. -They will not give you a refund for this trash system. --Customer service is non-existent. -They call you dear but won't fix the app that controls these dear cameras. -Sending fix it issues via the system provided by Anker is dead and won't respond nor resolve SECURITY CAMERA ISSUES WITHIN THE APP. -Unable to form a viable Court case with SECURITY VIDEO because we didn't hit the "CONTINUE BUTTON" in time to save the LIVE view footage. STOP BUYING THIS SYSTEM. IT IS TRASH. You cannot use it for anything other than squirrel monitoring. We have been waiting and waiting for an app that will control this system properly for 3 YEARS. To date, the cameras are unusable because the app that controls them is unusable. In an Internet outage, THIS SYSTEM WILL NOT FUNCTION! YOU WILL HAVE NO ACCESS TO YOUR CAMERAS IN AN OUTAGE, thusly making this NOT a viable security system as advertised. It is a blatant lie to call this a security system when we aren't able to use the "security" cameras at will. Right now, the app isn't functioning so we cannot view any live footage. Please read the reviews in Play before purchasing. This is not a viable security system! Thank you. 04/07/25: 😞 MORE FOREIGN Trashhhhhhhhh!!!! We implore you to read the reviews in Play store. This system is no longer usable for us because of the lack of customer care and viable updates to fix problems. Customer service won't address concerns with functionality of these units. The Company has an F rating on BBB citing concerns with reaching and receiving customer service as the main issue. That is also our issue. The cameras don't function as described. The app that controls them is not good ever particularly after an update. If you don't press CONTINUE OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER, ALL FOOTAGE WILL BE LOST. POS SYSTEM, NOT SECURITY SYSTEM!!! TRASH. Update12/3/24: CONTINUE CONTINUE CONTINUE! That is what you must push each time you're in live view over and over and over and over and over again. So if I'm cooking and I want to view the camera in live view because there is an event, my hands must be free at all times to keep pushing the continue continue continue button so that I can continue to watch live view! This is a dishonest system and it has nothing to do with security if I have to keep pushing a button in order to view the camera. Please stop calling things security systems that aren't security systems-- it is a lie to the consumer and it does no one any good in critical situations where LIVE VIEW is paramount. I don't need a childish reminder that I'm viewing my cameras in live view. Please stop add pop ups when the app opens to view live view. Once again if I have to disable an advertisement before I can view my cameras once again- NOT a security camera but an advertising agent. I do not want any advertisements covering any of the views of my cameras of anything that alleges to be security. Please just stop. Finally, customer care is nonexistent. The pacifying responses in Play store do not provide any assistance with this system's functionality nor will they assist you with glitches in the subpar app. Good luck y'all the system is a mess and we have not had good luck with "security" events. Eufy has missed most pertinent security events due to continue continue continue continue button not depressed over and over. It's depressing to pay this kind of money for something that claims to be one thing and clearly is not. Amazon should have EUFY correct their language to remove the word security from their description because they're selling junk to American consumers alleging security. If we would have opened the play store and read the 1, 2 star reviews before purchasing, this would not have been anywhere on our list. Here's what we don't like. We had this for around 3 months with nothing but problems. The interface is lacking major functionality and tech support is not helpful. They patronize instead of fix the problems especially with Android users. An active "security" event cannot and will not record past 1 minute, 1:01 to be exact with no way to adjust the feature for a longer clip. The app takes more than 12-18 seconds to open during a "security" event. The app won't let you disable notifications. The app has a popup each opening for the notification to be enabled over and over and over again delaying live view. The cameras won't record events if the subject is moving slowly in its view. The camera/app won't alert you until most of the event has ended. The cameras aren't successful at discerning people from objects. The app refuses to open quickly and takes forever to download events to save. There is no live view PIP. The app runs in the background yet requires opening each time. The battery life has severely diminished to 1-4 days instead of it's advertised battery life. The battery drains frequently and requires a full charge which takes overnight at least. The app has limited features for free that don't function properly so we wouldn't be open to anything paid from this system. We aren't happy with the reliability of catching motion events consistently. There is also no way to stop notifications. If you disable motion, a pop up comes on the screen EVERY TIME YOU OPEN THE APP DELAYING THE OPENING OF THE APP THUS YOU WILL MISS ALLEGED SECURITY EVENTS WHICH IS A NONSTARTER FOR A SECURITY SYSTEM. As mentioned before, support isn't supportive so the popup persists delaying the opening of a constant background running app. Why can't notifications be disabled without compromising the alleged security system events? See, this is not a security system and is a total ripoff. Pure overpriced trash. We are so mad to pay this HIGH PRICE for a security toy. This system isn't usable for security needs. It does enjoy recording squirrels and raccoons however.

I don’t write reviews often but was very impressed with the EufyCam 2C (purchased two sets and several add on cameras for usage at two different locations). I’m a current owner of cameras from Nest (Nest IQ indoor), Wyze (Wyze V2 cam) and Blink (Blink XT2). The EufyCam 2C has easily replaced the Blink XT2 as my recommendation for outdoor wireless camera for the following reasons: 1) Wider field of view (2C is 135 degrees vs. 110 for the Blink XT2) 2) Higher resolution recordings. By default, the Blink XT2 is set to record at “standard” resolution within the app, which is actually 720p (this has to be manually toggled to “best” by the user which is 1080p). I found this out the hard way when reviewing footage on my computer and noticing the subpar quality. The 2C records at 1080p. 3) Actual battery percentage meter. The Blink XT2 app only lets users know if the battery is “OK” or needs to be replaced. The 2C has a granular battery percentage meter. Although this may seem like a small deal, it’s important to know when your outdoor cameras are about to run out of batteries so that you can charge them before extended absences from your home (i.e. vacations). There are numerous folks on the Blink forums who have had their cameras just go offline without any notice that the batteries were depleted. 4) Built in rechargeable lithium batteries. The Blink XT2s use disposable Energizer lithium batteries. These can cost anywhere from 1-2 dollars CAD per piece, with two required per camera per swap. This adds up quite quickly as the cameras, when set to a sensitivity level that is useful, run out of batteries quick. Third party options for alternate power are quite limited. The 2Cs have integrated lithium batteries charged over micro USB. They are capable of taking up to 2A at 5V so charge quite rapidly. Battery percentage is quickly accessible via the app. 5) On device AI. The Blink XT2 is “dumb” in the sense that all PIR fluctuations are recorded as events. This is quite frustrating and results in tons of false notifications regardless on how diligently the user sets motion sensitivity and activity zones. The EufyCam 2C can be set to notify on all motion but also has optional on device AI which notifies only for people. The AI is quite robust and for my application (cameras located outside of my place) resulted in approximately 1 false notification every 2-3 days on average, even with the cameras on maximum sensitivity. 6) Cost. The Blink XT2 regular price is 129 CAD for a single camera and sync module. The two camera setup for the 2C is 269 CAD right now with discount. The pricing is so similar that it does not make any sense to buy the XT2s because you can get a much more superior product for virtually the same price. The only flip side to this is that you have to start with the two camera setup. 7) Privacy. This mattered less to me but for the privacy conscious, the EufyCam recordings are stored locally on the HomeBase 2. Just note that your experience in playing back the clips will depend on the upload speed of your ISP provided connection as the footage has to be streamed to your mobile device. 8) Better included mounting gear. The mounting brackets included with the 2C are rock solid, compared with the XT2 mounts which a strong gust of wind can knock down your cameras. 9) Shorter re-trigger time and longer clips. The Blink XT2 can record clips up to 60 seconds long with a re-trigger time of 10 seconds. The EufyCam 2C can record clips up to 120 seconds long with a re-trigger time of 5 seconds. You will catch more this way! This could be the difference of seeing something happen and missing it completely Concerns/areas for improvement 1) There have been a few (note: very few) instances where I feel that the on device AI may be slightly too aggressive in excluding events with people when cameras are set to people detection only 2) A feature that has been in the pipeline for quite a bit of time but has not yet materialized is using the USB port on the Homebase 2 for encrypted external storage backup of recordings; this is not yet available 3) The first quarter second or so of footage may not be useful as the 2C has to wake up, adjust exposure and start recording. Most of the times this interval has overexposed footage This camera also easily matches up to the Arlo series at a fraction of the price. Overall highly recommended! Will be purchasing more cameras in the future, in particular the Eufycam 2 with longer battery life to be used in higher traffic areas around the house

Las mejores cámaras que he comprado. Las quise usar con el sistema de Apple pero consumen mucha batería, y mejor decidí usar su propia app. Tiene muchas opciones para su gestión y administración de su uso. La batería no rinde lo que indican si la zona tiene mucho movimiento. Entre más movimiento más consumen ya que graba y eso consume batería. Es importante que instales un panel solar o que lo dejes conectado a la corriente. Yo tenía instalada una que da hacia la calle y cada minuto hay movimiento y por tanto tenía que cargarlas cada dos semanas (se vuelve tedioso y están instaladas en lo alto). Entonces tuve que comprar unos paneles solares que me costaron menos de 40 dólares por dos. Eso hizo que su uso se volviera perfecto y actualice su configuración para que grabe más tiempo. La base con la que viene guarda todos los videos grabados sin tener que pagar suscripciones. Existen una opción de enlace con iCloud pero consumiría memoria de tu nube. La memoria de la base es de 15gb aprox y lleva la mitad de uso en 53 días pero se puede resetear si lo requieres. Creo que son las mejores cámaras y su construcción es muy sólida. Ha llovido y nada les ha afectado. Puedes comprarlas con confianza y recomiendo que sea en alguna promoción o descuento. Hay otras opciones de cámaras mucho más baratas pero esas si construcción de los plásticos son de mala calidad que se ponen amarillos por el sol o no resisten la lluvia a largo plazo, además que sus aplicaciones tienen publicidad y se resetean solas.

I had picked up a eufy wired doorbell and decided to stick with the brand, as I was very happy with it. I’m glad I did. I attached the home base to my router, it picked up the cameras very fast, and I spent awhile finding the perfect spots for them. I have one in front of my garage, watching the driveway and street, and have spent awhile tuning the detection threshold so that it gives me only the results I want. The backyard was harder - I wanted it there mostly to check for skunks or raccoons before I let the dog out at night. The camera out front got great reception at all times, the one in the back was perfect until I moved it outside, beside the window frame. Of course I checked it INSIDE the window before I spent 20 minutes hanging out of a 2nd story window installing it and had to uninstall it. That whole outside corner was a dead zone once it passed the window, so I installed it at the other corner of our second floor, outside the master bedroom. Works great and has decent resolution at night. Daytime definition is great, but when installed high off the ground (which it’s not really designed for) it falls off, especially when the light is poor. I’m still happy, and after two weeks of me constantly checking it and fiddling with it, both batteries are still showing 100%. Recommended. CONS: although the siren works great, as does the illuminator, the speakers on these are so tiny that you can’t make out what is said. It sounds a bit like someone trying to speak through a kazoo. If you’re looking to roar challenges at intruders, this won’t do it. The speaker on the doorbell (reviewed separately) works fine, and is likely where you’ll speak to someone anyway. *** February 1st, 2021 update. I’m still very happy with these cameras. The camera over my garage door, which is checked frequently (whenever the dog looks up and starts growling - it’s often an Amazon delivery or food delivery) and it started showing low battery in mid January, 2021 - installed in mid October 2020. So that’s three months outside in the cold, used frequently, before the battery got low. Pretty great!

Muy buenas cámaras, sin embargo si hay mucha actividad en el lugar que están probablemente la batería dure poco y nada que no se solucione con cargarla durante un par de horas y te olvidas por unos meses, es compatible con HomeKit

Fácil de configurar e instalar, precio justo.
