I was looking for a video doorbell to replace my old wireless model that finally died. I wasn't excited about having to subscribe to a service, or to have my video images broadcast over the internet telling the world every time I left my house. This doorbell offered the solution.
There are other video doorbells out there without subscription services required, but Eufy is part of the Anker family of products. Anker is a name I'm familiar with. Since I have had good luck with Anker's USB hubs, USB cables, and power cells I thought I'd give this a shot.
So far, so good. The setup was easy. The video quality is pretty good, not "cinema" quality, but good enough to recognize people at the edge of the detection range.
Initially, I had the doorbell notify me every time someone entered the detection area. It was cool to see delivery people drop off packages, but you also get alerts every time you leave and enter as well unless you put the unit to sleep first. I was getting 12 - 15 notifications a day and this caused the battery to drain fairly quickly. Since the notification feature isn't something I need all the time I leave it off until I do need it. The good thing about the detection area is it WORKS well. No false alarms from wildlife or people walking by just outside of the set detection area. Once I hardwire the unit so that it has a constant supply of power, I'll leave the detection feature on 24/7/365 again.
NOTE TO EUFY/ANKER: It would be useful if one could program when to have detection on and off to get more out of the battery and not sacrifice security. Remembering to turn it on and off is a hassle.
The app for your smartphone works well (at least the version for my phone does) and is intuitive. The app makes it is easy to manage your device settings and see who is at your door. YES, the app utilizes the internet to notify you and send you a video, but I can disable that feature and the videos are stored LOCALLY on the base unit, not in the cloud.
All that and no subscription fee or internet privacy concerns.

Review - Eufy Security Video Doorbell (Battery-Powered)
Kayla Angle
Reviews with images
UPDATE: Ring may be the leader, but Eufy is the better value
UPDATE: My Eufy Doorbell camera has been installed for 95 days now (see picture) and my battery life just hit the 50% mark. I’ll take it down and charge once it gets into the 30% range. I still have it on the 2nd highest battery setting, Optimal Surveillance, which record longer clips = with no battery drain issues. I’ve had the Eufy Flood Light cameras installed for almost a year now and still haven't had any issues with camera / audio quality or with any recording for either of my Eufy devices. Overall, I’m thoroughly impressed with Eufy!!I have bought and used both Ring and Eufy Outdoor Flood Light camera systems. I favor Eufy over Ring, primarily for no monthly fees, camera quality, and notifications.> Both cameras have excellent video quality. Eufy has like a two or three-second delay. I can’t recall if Ring also has a delay with recording.> Eufy is the only doorbell battery camera that I’ve own and, for me, the battery is excellent. I set it up 35 days ago and just checked the battery life and it’s still going strong! As of today it shows 83% life remaining after 96 recorded events / notifications. Further, I have it on the 2nd highest battery setting, Optimal Surveillance, which record longer clips. Very impressed!> As for my Floodlight cameras, I will say with Ring I noticed that my backyard flood camera had a slightly wider view.> With Eufy, I love having to not worry about any extra fees and having extra storage with Homebase. (I will add that it took me a while to understand Homebase's purpose. I knew it was to hold extra storage. But, that’s not a concern if you delete random notifications /clips regularly. But, the bonus that I appreciate is that Homebase is also the doorbell chime for the Eufy Doorbell, so you don't need to buy a separate Chime - I was happy to return the one I bought. I also like that there are several chime tones to choose from. I have a 4,000 sq foot home and can hear the chime at its loudest setting easily throughout the house.)> As for the notifications, I honestly got more false notifications on my phone with Ring than Eufy. Eufy seems to be more consistent although there are some false notifications. Ring annoyed me to the point where I decided to switch to Eufy. From my experience, the notifications on these outdoor camera systems aren't 100% accurate at times. For example, with both systems, I get non-stop alerts when the exhaust from my home's HVAC system blows out into the cold air. Still, I take it as par for the course.> If you get Eufy (or perhaps any device) be sure to check the App Store for updates regularly. At one point, the Eufy notifications kept piling up even when I deleted recordings. I did an App update as my last resort and it cleared all those notifications as well as install whatever updates it needed.I'm willing to bet that none of these systems are perfect. It's technology and when combined with human efforts is flawed to some degree. Though, Eufy beats out Ring, at least with the Flood Light camera. I plan to buy more Eufy devices in the near future.
