I have been looking almost every day for the last few weeks to see your review of this product was available. I love your reviews so thank you for posting. Someday I looking forward to a product review of a home security camera product that is far closer to perfect than this. But unfortunately it is not this product today. The 24/7 recording is really the only thing that is new here to Eufy. And I already have that with my older Nest cameras (which still work great with the older NEST app but also has issues). From watching your video the audio quality is unacceptable for me. And the user interface in that app still feels like a toy to me. Add to that the inability to watch recorded clips from the web browser keeps me a being a buyer of this product. And even though you can watch a single LIVE camera from your browser you can't watch more than one camera at a time. PS: For those interested the new gen 2 camera from NEST are completely unusable because of the GOOGLE HOME app lacking so many things. Cheers!

Kinda disappointing that it doesn't have a backup battery, In case of a power outage you completely lost all the footage. The Nest cam has 24/7 recording once you add a power cord. Too bad eufy doesn't want to compromise their battery cams. You either got battery event-only or wired 24/7 but not a middle ground.

Almost, they have all the options and the same top of the line hardware (4K) but they capped the bitrate so you can't see the quality. Faces are still blurry at 5m. Such a shame as they really do have the best software if you don't need the clarity. Basically, a Eufy 4K camera would be similar in quality to Reolink's 2K camera as Reolink allows a much higher bitrate even though it has almost 2.5x the amount of pixels.

I had a question, but watching the video again answered it. The question was...Can I have this on the same Home Base 3 as my other Eufy Cameras? I figured the answer is yes. The reason I was curious, however, is because it's a 24/7 camera and the others are motion only. What's disappointing though, is that there isn't an option to do motion only. I still have the default 16 gig storage so I would have liked to do motion only until I expanded that.

Good review but one fatal flaw that you didn't focus on was the lack of ability to change the bitrate. It's stuck at 2.5Mbs for daylight videos, this is shocking low compared to Reolink's 5Mbps-8Mbps video. My 5MP Reolink outperformed the 4k (8MP) Eufy camera by a long shot in clarity, once Eufy fixes this up, this camera will be almost perfect, just need a ball joint too.

These are really cool cameras andI the homebase 3 is what the home base 2 should have been. I really like the cross camera tracking and the 24/7 recording to the home base is excellent as well. But the best thing about this setup is. If someone takes your camera, the footage is still on the home base if you have a hard drive installed.cross camera tracking also worked with my doorbell that I bought last year which was a pleasant surprise.

Thank you for this excellent review ! I find this new eufy camera a huge disappointment, I expected much better 1. limited power options, why not add PoE ? 2. Detection range : 40 feet is unacceptable for a powered camera. I understand 30 feet limitation for battery cameras as they PIR based but we get only extra 10 feet for wired, not enough 3. Homebase dependency : why cant we use the camera without it ? What if I want to use one camera standalone and record to sd card or cloud only 4. FPS : why do we get 15 fps like battery cameras ? Again understandable for battery camera but not for wired one 5. Sound quality : horrible. How come we get better sound on eufy cam 3 compared to the professional model ? 6. No PoE/ONVIF : for the professional line product, it would have been nice to be able to plug the camera on an NVR I am under the impression that eufy took the eufy cam 3, removed the solar panel and replaced it with wire, redesigned the camera a bit, messed up the sound and released a new product for us 😂

This is more of a DIY type product. Compare to similar products, not PoE. The detection range is understandable and regardless, 24/7 recording. It’s dependent on the homebase because that’s where it stores its videos. You bring up PoE twice, this product is supposed to be a WiFi type solution where you wouldn’t typically be able to run a PoE setup.
@LifeHackster11 ай бұрын
@haytham.bouassida...Thanks for watching! and I agree on the PoE or even an ethernet port... its detection range, I think this is more of Eufy's AI on how small or big the "human shape is" to trigger it and they can improve this. Now the E330 cameras have a SD card slot which they have plans to use it in the future.

@jasondebraux6695 For camera recommendations, it really depends on your needs and budget. If you're looking for Wi-Fi cameras, I would recommend Eufy, Wyze, TP Link or Ring. I don't recommand Eufy professional cameras but other Eufy camera products are great, such as their solo cams or Eufy Cam 3. As for Ring you should consider the subscription fees and camera resolution ... they still are in the 1080p era. Finally, you should take into account privacy concerns when choosing your future brand, unfortunately people tend to forget to consider this crutial criterea when they choose their security camera

No POE might = no sale for me when I decide to bite the bullet on one of these systems soon. Reolink would probably be my alternative, but I do like the ability to record to the cloud in case the base is stolen or power/network goes down. I still have access to events.

Thank you, i literally messaged you about these a few days back 👍 I really want to know if my wired eufy floodlight cam 2 pro 360 degree can also record 24/7 to homebase 3, it was supposed to be happening. Also is the dual doorbell supported by hub 3 yet ? Eufy are terrible at sticking to schedules and informing customers of updates

@@LifeHackster no problem, thank you for taking the time to reply, im mainly trying to find out if the eufy floodlight cam 2 pro can record 24/7, when they first announced homebase 3 they said it would be able to, however im suspicious they probably cancelled those plans to force us to buy the new 24/7 cameras

The pairing procedure can be frustrating. the camera and base have to be really close, so if you ever need to pair it again while already installed, it is painful

The sensor is not a low light sensor, you can turn off the spotlight and the IR lights but it will be too dark.

night vision is always on or not? because base on this video it seems for me that only when there is motion, if yes it still means it it not 24hours camera and if this settings is like this is it possible to switch it on base on other camera motion capture?

Hi LifeHackster: Thanks for your review of the Eufy E330 professional camera. Since this is a professional-grade camera, maybe I am about to ask a stupid question, so please forgive me for that. I didn't hear you mention about RTSP stream. Does it support the RTSP stream?

Something that I don't like so far is that when I'm scanning my playback video at 4x 8x 16x it will play at those speeds mentioned for maybe 15 seconds or so and then it jumps 10 minutes ahead and speeds footage super fast. I actually missed like 4 different people walking by the sidewalk within those 10 minutes. I have to constantly be rewinding footage after every ten or 15 seconds to make sure it maintains the speed I've chosen. Any thoughts on this issue, or do you have that issue?
