5.0 out of 5 stars Great motion sensing camera with solar!
Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2024
I purchased this to add to my Eufy home security system. This camera is mounted over my garage, to monitor the 40 ft driveway to my house. It is connected to a HomeBase3, along with 2 indoor cameras, 4 water leak detectors, and 1 motion sensor. I plan to add 2 additional exterior cameras in the coming months. As with all of the devices in the Eufy line, this camera was a breeze to setup, mount, configure, and to add to an existing security routine. It was up within 1 hour and works flawlessly. The dual lens design makes zooming quick with great resolution. The motion tracking works perfectly. The solar charging is awesome, and allows placement without the need for access to AC -- just make sure that it gets about 2 hours of direct sunlight every day. I purchased a rain hood for this, as it will get hammered with sun and weather due to it's position on the house. As I feel with all of the Eufy security devices that I've purchased, this camera works exactly the way it should -- which is very diffrerent than other brands that I've tried. Although not cheap, in this case you get what you pay for.

5.0 out of 5 stars REALLY GREAT SECURITY CAMERA SYSTEM!
Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2024
This is one of my EASIEST 5-star reviews. This is a GREAT product, and no I don't own stock in Eufy.

I wanted to replace my old DVR-based wired system with a more modern system of wireless video cams. I looked at other brands, and based on the YouTube vid's I watched, the Eufy S340 seemed to do it all. So, I bought the starter pack (2 cams and a Homebase) to try out, and it did everything that Eufy claimed, and more. On that basis I bought 5 more cameras and have not been disappointed. I'm not going to rehash all of the S340's features. I suggest that you watch any of the YouTube videos about this product. I will only list the features that wildly exceeded my expectations, along with some installation tips:

1. Customer Service. One of my 7 cams worked perfectly except that the battery wouldn't fully charge to 100%. It only charged up to 44%, but that was still more than enough power for it to function perfectly. But I wasn't happy with what was likely a battery that had been on a warehouse shelf a bit too long, so I called Eufy product support. *Before* I was off the phone with them, they had a replacement on its way to me, without first having confirmed that I had shipped the old one back. THAT is what I call exceptional CSX.

2. Installation wizard. The installation process is via an automated wizard that's activated by your mobile phone's Eufy app, and it's terrific. It walks you thru every step of the installation, and I've never had a problem installing a cam. It's a brilliantly designed piece of software that even takes you thru updating the camera firmware to the latest version.

3. Solar panel mounting tips. On my eaves, my concrete roof tiles extend over the edge of the fascia board by a couple of inches. This can make it difficult to install the camera with the solar panel attached directly to the top of the cam. Also, some locations don't get enough direct sunlight. So, I mounted the solar panels in some locations 5 or 6 feet away from the camera and I used these really great stand-offs for the solar panels:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BKGCFNTD?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

These are great, too, but don't provide as much of a stand-off distance:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08RNHSMCL/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I used both of these in various locations, depending on how much stand-off distance I needed. They are great products. When you install the solar panel in a different location than the camera, you'll be using the provided extension cable that's about 10 feet long. I wanted to keep this installation neat and professional looking, so I used these cable clips to fasten the cable to the inside of the eaves fascia board:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08RMNPCYN?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1

4. Eufy app. The downloadable app is amazingly complete. It has more panels and info on it than I've seen in other more sophisticated products (like my Generac standby generator). You can setup camera sensitivity, AI tracking, sound, video quality, and on and on. I have one camera focused on my fishpond and I've set it to a slightly higher sensitivity than the other cams, and I've told it to recognize animals. It almost always records a huge great horned owl in the middle of the night when I'm sleeping, and it's going for a drink of water. I've also set that same camera to trigger the built-in siren and strobe light if it sees anything that's coyote-sized trying to catch my goldfish or koi.

5. Panning and close-ups. You can pan the cameras while you're viewing them remotely, and you can do a closeup using a finger drag on your screen, or you can switch to the 3x lens for an even more detailed close-up. All of these features work flawlessly and in real time. What a great thing to have when you're on vacation!

6. Serious security. I've used the configurable "Automation" capability to "knit" my cameras together into an automated system that will set off alarms under circumstances that I've defined. For instance, I've set my system to behave normally from 6a to midnight. During that time, if any camera detects movement (definable by camera), the system records the event and stores it. BUT AFTER MIDNIGHT and before 6a, if it detects humans or cars on my driveway, all hell breaks loose. That means that those triggered cameras flash a strobe, sound a siren, and send me an alert that wakes me up. In such a case, I could bring that camera up on the screen, and I could turn off the siren and yell at the unwanted visitor(s) through the built-in loudspeaker.

7. Camera wireless range. I noticed that it took a while to access my farthest cameras using the Eufy app. They were attached in a location on the eaves outside my garage doors. I simply installed an additional eero Wi-Fi Extender in the garage, and that solved the problem. I already had an eero router and other eero extenders in order to provide better performance for my other network devices around my large-ish house, so I just needed an additional extender.

---------------------------------------------------------------

There's really nothing about these cameras or the system software that I don't like. I can't address reliability because I've only had them in for a few months now, but so far, so good. I can't recommend this system highly enough.

BTW, all my cams are connected to my Eufy Homebase S380, which is a separate product, and which you should buy with your first camera purchase. It's $149 by itself, but Eufy has a pkg that includes two cams and a Homebase for a substantial discount. Here's the link:

In the pictures that I attached, the first one shows a short stand-off. I needed to use it because the camera is actually mounted under an awning in the shade, and there was more than enough room for a short stand-off. The second picture shows a long stand-off. I needed to use a longer one in order to clear the roof tiles and to get a good view of the sun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good for a wireless camera
Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2024
Bought this camera after weeks of research and concluding that no wireless camera will truly reach the performance of a wired one, but this one comes a little close. It’s been up for over a month now, and has not shown any sign of defection after we’ve had pouring rain for weeks. The visibility at night is INCREDIBLE! The picture quality in general is beautiful, clear as day in day time. Its performance is flawless during the day, with no delays of alarms and sensors. Sound quality is also surprisingly really stable, can catch my neighbors conversation in his car. Motion detection was really important for us because we want to keep thieves away from our driveway, and it is more than sufficient *again for a wireless camera*. A lot of reviews complain about this, but fail to understand that these kind of cameras can only detect so much. The motion detection can be too sensitive, which may be good thing if you really want that extra security at night. You can also adjust its sensitivity and notifications in the app, so that’s that. The notifications are timely, sometimes with a delay of a few seconds but nothing outrageous to the point where you could miss something crucial. Not to mention how EASY this was to set up!!!! Very straightforward connection to the app, and the app itself is very user friendly. Oh and the battery is holding up pretty well! Definitely love the solar panel option. Seriously worth the money if your only option is a wireless camera/you don’t want to go through the hassle of a wired one. No ridiculous monthly fee, very user friendly and feeling a lot less anxious at night.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great camera
Reviewed in the United States on October 12, 2024
Was worried about the app and camera but this works great (even grabbed a rain cover cap). The coverage is good and it picks things up fine. I’m using it with homebase (network is super fast and stable) and wish the response was a bit faster for recording. Also (need to play more) notice it seems to cut off the recording from say vehicle to person when it’s the same area and should keep recording.

The night vision is hinky. It ends up blurring out or whitening license plates and signage so I keep it off.

Features are great though. Mounting is easy (did in brick). Allows for setting main power to solar panel.
