Outstanding cameras

Cameras work absolutely fine. Easy to install. Good video quality.

Eufy is doing what few others (if any) are - making a wireless outdoor camera that is compatible with Apple HomKit. I used these to replace two aging Blink cameras that were no longer reliable (and certainly were not viewable in HomeKit.) At this price point, the Eufy cams aren't perfect, but in addition to being HomeKit compatible, there are NO subscriptions required. Speaking for myself, I avoid products that require a monthly or annual fee to access features that are baked into the device. Eufy does not make you pay extra for those features, although you do need to use the Eufy app (not just the HomeKit app) in order to access all the camera's features.While you can set this up directly in HomeKit (without using the Eufy app), it's better to set it up first in the Eufy app and bind the base to HomeKit under "Settings" in the Eufy app. That way, you can access features including firmware updates, mic and speaker access, and detailed camera settings.This would have been a 5-star review, except for several minor gripes. For instance, these Eufy cameras are compatible with, but not native to Apple HomeKit. A hub (HomeBase 2) is required, connecting to your router through a LAN port. Just one more thing you need to add and manage. And while the HomeBase 2 hub is capable of connecting many cameras in the Eufy app, it can only connect 4 cameras to HomeKit.Viewing video feed in HomeKit has a signifiant delay, but viewing from the Eufy app seems faster. This could be due to the interface between the HomeBase 2 and whichever HomeKit gateway you are using. Whatever, it's an annoyance when the other cameras pop right up in HomeKit.Another minor gripe is that the cameras use a micro-USB plug for recharging the internal battery. That is old tech. And yes, while the 2C Pro system was introduced a few years ago, Eufy has not updated this connector. It also recommends using a 5W AC adapter (not included) - you know, like the old-generation iPhone AC adapters. You may have a few of these lying around, but I think one should have been included with the set. Also, you only get 1 micro-USB-to-USB cable, even though there are two cameras. So, if you don't have another other micro-USB cable lying around and if both cameras need recharging at the same time, it could take up to 10 hours (5 hours each) to recharge both cameras.The cameras use a standard 1/4-inch screw thread mount (same as for a tripod), so any number of third-party mounts should work instead of the relatively cheap included plastic mounts. This means you can mount these outside practically anywhere - overhangs, gutters, trees, fences, etc. However, note that the range of the Eufy 2C Pro is rather short. I found mine didn't go much past 50 feet - and that is a straight-shot between the cameras and the base with only a window as an "obstruction".Yes, Eufy makes a more powerful system with solar-powered cameras for HomeKit, but it's also like 4 times the price. For roughly $150, the 2C Pro system is a reasonably-priced alternative, with a few bugs.

Fantastic, couldn’t be happier. This was by far the easiest, fastest mounting and set up ever. Crystal clear video and easy functional app!
