5 Stars for Eufy, I bought 2 months a go eufy wireless door locks and loved the retrofit installation. Its so easy to install and the only thing you need is to remove door lock from inside. So i am not worried about -40 temperature now coz indoor locks temp will remain constant, the weatherproof wireless keypad makes the door lock system complete. Best part i can manage the entry, access remotely, generate user PIN's, grants temporary and time based. Later i bought eufy wired door bell, which is another great product. The new door bell has dual camera one for front view and one for package view which shows foot steps of the door. like regular CCTV camera i can create activity zones in door bell also. It has pre recorded 3 voice announcements which can be setup to trigger if someone approaches the door or try to steal your package. Since that was not enough and then i bought eufy outdoor wired cameras. I am amazed with the camera quality. The cameras was reasonably priced if i compare it with the product quality. The wired S200 series camera comes with a magnetic base and a memory card slot, one can use upto 128GB micro SD card. I bought wired camera because i needed 24/7 continuous recording, I bought 2 wired cameras one with 1080p resolution and other 2K resolution, and both are amazing in terms of video quality and online live streaming. I cant even find a difference in 1080p and 2K video on cell phone. The 2K camera comes with 32gb Micro SD card and can store up to 72 hours of Continuous video/audio/motion detection/events etc.
Pros:-
1) easy to setup with eufy ioS/android app
2) Amazing smartphone app with attractive features.
3) door bell notifications are instant with thumbnails and text alerts
4) AI face recognition feature is amazing and it stores the visitor name for future notification
5) Totally secure, i find privacy much better then other product in market. Your data is safe in local storage if your using devices internal memory. No data stored over the cloud unless you subscribe for it.
6) night vision is perfect, including spot lights in camera which triggers automatically once someone enters into activity zones.
7) there are so many state of the art features in eufy products which i am still not familiar or couldnt find enough time to explore the.
8) and the most best part all of the devices are seamlessly connect with voice assistant (alexa, google home). I find it much better with alexa, amazon fire tv, and alexa touch screen frame. just say alexa show me door bell. it right away pops up the camera, or lock unlock the door.
9) built-in memory products are amazing, i am not worried about my privacy and data anymore.
10) there are a lot more pros of the devices and not on top of my head right now.
11) Yes, the customer services is superb, response spontaneously and keeps you in loop if yo arises any concern.
Cons:-
1) A little bit more work required on Alexa and google integration. it could be voice assistance side which sometimes takes longer then usual to pop up camera or take longer if you instruct alexa to lock the door. I wouldnt blame eufy. i know they will work with third party and update it.
2) The built in memory of cameras could have been increased from 128Gb, in my case its not an issue.
3) Sometimes the camera notifications delay. I guess cameras are not good idea to use as door bell, since door bell response is spontaneous and im loving it.
4) Door bell heats up pretty quick, i dont know its the factory default. In winter its a plus point to keep door bell warm so it dosent loses connection. but in hot summer days it could be an issue. But i havent faced any significant issue so far. yes if one person is streaming the live video on door bell then other user streaming device can hear audio from door bell. I figured out coz my alexa was automatically showing door bell once someone press the door bell and it pops it up on alexa screen. and at the same time i opened the door bell on my phone and couldnt hear the audio from the person at the door. Eventually i had to disable alexa auto showinf door bell video so i can anser the door bell from phone and speak with the person.
All above mentioned Cons does not mean the door bell is not functional. It is functional but i guess i used the devices beyond their limits or maybe something have never tested before by the manufacturer. i am sure they will come up with a solution in near future.
Simple words, thanks eufy. i am loving your security products. I can proudly say my home is protected by Eufy.
PS: this review is not paid or sponsored. Its my personal review which i reach to a conclusion after using eufy products for couple of months. I strongly recommend everyone, why to pay telco operators monthly fee, when you can get you own personalized, customized easy to install security system along with data privacy in reasonable price and best quality products
