Great entry level security camera system!
This system was easy to install and set up. I already had a few devices in the Eufy ecosystem, so adding these was a breeze. I was able to install the cameras in minutes (probably 10-15 minutes each), and after spending a few minutes tweaking the motion detection settings I was up and running.I am pleased with the camera quality and they work well at night and in low light conditions. Viewing the camera feeds with the app is simple and effective. The only unknown right now is battery life for the cameras, so we’ll have to see how that works out.The default configuration is to plug the HomeBase unit directly into your router via Ethernet cable (this is how I did it), but the manual does state that it is possible to connect it using WiFi if desired.This package is built around the HomeBase 2, which is the older version but it does the job. The storage is limited, and not expandable. I could definitely see myself upgrading to HomeBase 3 in the future if I need to increase my digital storage capacity but that is not a high priority for me right now. All in all, I’m very pleased with this and it is working great.

Good Security Camera, Good Value
I have been very happy with this new security camera set so far. For a cheap base model set, it has impressive features. The signal to the cameras outside my house is strong from its basestation inside. The picture quality is clear and has sufficient resolution. The night vision also works well. The motion detection range is proportional to the camera height. At about 6.75 ft height the detection distance is about 10.75 ft and at 8.25 ft height the detection distance is about 12 ft (diagonal distance). The camera sees further than this, naturally, but these ranges are those necessary to trigger the camera to record. Outside this range motion is not detected. It also distinguishes between people and animals. My cats don’t trigger it, which is nice. The alarm option on detection is loud and will definately get attention. It’s probably something most people will not want on most of the time because you don’t want a burgler alarm going off for UPS or Amazon deliveries. The ability to speak through the cameras is also nice (has about a 1 second delay). Be careful charging the cameras. You definitely should use a high amperage USB charger (2 A). They will take unacceptably long to charge on a lower amperage plugin (like a USB charging port on a surge protector). Another minor annoyance charging is that the micro-USB charging port is recessed on the bottom of the camera and covered with a flap (to prevent water getting it). The recessed hole on the camera is smaller than the dimensions of the plastic surrounding the male end of most mini-USB charging cables so finding cables that will fit might be problematic when charging multiple cameras. It only comes with 1 cable. I had 3 others in my cable drawer and only 1 would fit. The app is easy to use and intuitive and makes the setup straightforward. Just add your basestation first in the app, then the cameras individually. Overall, this is a very good entry level system.

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 completelyConcerns/areas for improvement1) 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 only2) 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 available3) 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 footageThis 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

Me gusto el sistema funciona muy bien pero debería de ser con tres camaras
