Finally a full complete camera review. Everyone doing camera reviews should always include the time it takes to notify, the clarity, and the farthest distance it can truly start detecting motion. Now I can say that ring is still the best for me because it uses pixel change detection so its able to detect people or cars up to 45ft which is very good the sooner the camera starts to record the better. I'm keeping ring.

Eufy and Reolink are brands that doesn't need a subscription and also pretty good in their AI. Eufy with their Homebase 3 (has facial recognition) and their battery powered cameras are the easiest to install and even have solar panel built in on some of their models. Eufy also will have battery doorbells but Reolink only have wired in for now.

So far i just save an event in my phone if it is something i need otherwise it records up to 15 seconds (i can make it go longer) per event.

Have you tested geo fencing features based upon owner location? It would be good to understand if it works well when someone leaves and enters a geo zone if the camera notifies activity. A few things to know. 1: If one is at home in the middle of the day, the notification isn't activated at all or can only certain cameras (outside versus inside) be set to notify. 2: If one leaves a geo area the camera activates and notifies if it detects something. 3: If it's late like 11PM, the cameras get activated inside and outside of the house irregardless if geo-fencing is on and someone's home. This would be good testing of the software versus just camera quality and basic motion detection. Thank you for the awesome reviews!

Great review! Some suggestions: - Feel like you should have turned off the lights from your house when you were reviewing the camera's night vision/spot light quality. The light from your house is making the quality of the spot light better than it is. I'm assuming you may have done this to stay consistent with your other videos, but personally feel like it's better to have it off as other's will not have this assisted light. The common scenario is for when users' are asleep or away from the house (when all the lights are off). With the lights off, it will give the user a better sense of video quality. - Would be great to get a running zoomed in snapshot of each distance increment just like your standstill ones. Keep up the great work!!

Are you ever going to do a full review of the Eufycam 3 that has solar panels built in? But I'm getting kind of disappointed that Eufy cams are starting to get expensive. And I wish the industry would stop using the term "color night vision", because it's not night vision at all. How does using a white light make it night vision. Do you have night vision when your porch light it on? lol

I love your videos. They have been very helpful for me and I believe I will be purchasing my first outdoor cameras and planning on going with either the S330 or S300 with separate solar panels. My only reservation on these cameras is that my house has vinyl siding. Do you or does anyone have a recommendation for mounting on vinyl siding? Please provide a link, if you can. Thank you!

This is why I subscribe to your channel and or videos .... Great presentation and takes time to explain ... Great job! .... Question? I live in the south and all of my cameras ... Doorbell cam ...etc will fog up overnight because the temp warms up during the day and then it cools down overnight and my cameras will fog up .... Any ideas or products to help prevent this from happening? During the summer the cams will not because the temps don't cool down like it does in the part of the year so no problem .... If you have a video showing what you have found that will work can you direct me to it ? Again all of your videos are really great ! Keep up the great job ....

Yes, and this is a huge issue and yet Eufy still hasn't addressed it. What's the point of having home base storage if it can be deleted via the stolen camera? Anything recorded to the home base should not be able to be deleted from the camera's, even by the home owner. It should only be done via the home base itself or the app.

Setup Eufy homebase 3 with ease in my basement. The new cameras are great. The major problem I have is that wifi is not an option like it is on the homebase 2. I need the wifi for range/distance in my backyard. I'm wondering if there is a workaround to allow me to use my long range extenders for wifi or is there going to be update to allow.

If you only want the C3 camera then you will have to pay monthly for the cloud storage, which in long term it will be more expensive than getting the hub. Or, alternatively, you could choose the Eufy Solo cam L40 with internal storage (through SD card) and no hub needed which I think it's what you're looking for

A 4k actually stated as what it is. Interesting. Idk why they like to claim 4k when it's not usually. Or even 2k for some of their cams, whenits not 1440p. 2k starts at 1440p. Not under just bc its above 1080 doesn't make it 2k. Why do companies sell those lies? I'm really curious.
