I'm new to Eufy Security Devices and of the 2 S330 outdoor cameras, 1 C210 outdoor camera, 2 Solar Panel Chargers, and 1 S380 Home Base 3 (hard drive added). All installations went without issues. Installation was straight forward and not difficult.
I am impressed with all the features and settings available for the end user to utilizes as desired.
There are, however, several thinks that really should be considered to be updated. They are as follows:
1. All recordings should be saved to the Homebase 3 (no subscription needed). There should be only 1 defined storage device when no subscriptions are needed. As it stands now, when a recording is made by the camera when in "Live View" it only saves to the cell phone and doesn't save at all on the Homebase 3.
2. The S330 camera and the Solar Panel Charger wall/ceiling mount bracket that comes with each has a poorly designed plastic fastener that secures the device to the bracket. This fastener seems to be used on other Eufy Security devices also. The fastener does not securely hold the device. A "metal fastening nut" should be provided. The current plastic fastener cheapens an otherwise good design. See attached screenshot of the current fastener.
3. From what I can find out the large storage batteries in the cameras are not "plug and play" and are built in thus non replaceable.
Overall I rate the mentioned devices at 3++ (almost a 4 rating). The 4 "Con's" noted resulted in not giving a rating of 4 or 5.
4. When using the default setting of "Auto" in the C210 Solo "Streaming Quality" setting it will not allow a full length video to be saved (saves to cellphone) but only saves a small portion of the video recorded. As an example a 32 second recording saves to the cell phone as a 7 second video.This issue does not occur with the S330 outdoor cameras.
