Having had the E340 for a week as an 'upgrade' from the S330. The audio sounds like its underwater in comparison to the S330. It sounds muffled & doesn't pick up background noise as clear, while cars driving past sound like a rocket firing past. Eufy tell me they expect to roll out a firmware update in 2 weeks to fix it. Colour nightvision only works if you have the LEDs turned on, not with Optimal Infrared Night Vision or Off settings. If you have a porch light you will get colour vision if you turn off the infrared top & bottom lights. When you use the LEDs you will get 2/3 weeks charge (will be less in winter), whereas i got over two months with the S330 during summer & just over a month in winter. The Delivery Guard kept giving me false triggers in windy conditions esp when its facing plant pots & bushes that move in the wind. So i turned it off as next to useless. The activity zone doesn't have an ignore zone on the E340, you can only select the active area, so maybe the AI filters it out? The Radar Zone sensitivity for each angle is not a feature on the E340. You can only select the sensitivity from 1 to 7 for all areas it covers. Setting it at maximum setting 7 can sometimes pick up movement from 22ft (6 meters) & other times it triggers at 7ft (2 metres). Somewhat inconsistent. The 2K resolution is on par with the S330 with just slightly better infrared night vision. However the E340 camera is a little more zoomed out & the package view area is a bit smaller in pic in pic landscape mode. The positives are the removable battery with a usb-c so i can swap them up & keep the doorbell on the door. No separate batteries are available yet. The LEDs are useful if lightning up a dark porch but expect to charge it more often. But overall im not convinced its a worthwhile upgrade coming from the S330, maybe if it had 4K resolution. The on board 8GB memory isnt much use as i use the Homebase 3 for recordings where i added a 1TB SSD. Ill see how updates improve things.

​​​​@@SpazerangerEufy follow up, they are satisfied that their update has fixed the mic pick up issue. But that wasn't the main issue. It's the background suppression software that in comparison to the S330 sounds worst, muffled like it's underwater. The S330 clearly has better clarity. "We appreciate your patience and understanding in this matter. We have analyzed your new video and observed that the audio pickup of your doorbell is functioning normally at this time. Under normal circumstances, the doorbell has a clear voice pickup distance of 2 meters. Considering the proximity of your house to the road, the latest firmware version has significantly reduced the impact of external noise on voice pickup."

Eufy sponsored this video! The opinions are only going to be favorable. I bought this and was very disappointed. The first one worked for less than 24 hours. Stopped detecting motion. Eufy tech said it was defective. They sent me another one. Same thing. Worked for the first day and nothing after that. Resetting the battery would get it to work again for a short time. Not impressed at all. All I wanted was a good motion detect camera for my entry door. This has been a big pain in the a$$!

The Ring camera has a tall angle lens rather than dual lens, which is better as it gives you a complete view. Still thing Reolink make the best video doorbell though it doesn't work with existing chime, but that is better since it doesn't rely on a capacitor to make up for power deficit when the doorbell is rung so that is an additional failure point if you use existing chime which can lead to loss of power to the doorbell if someone presses and holds the button down too long or the capacitor goes bad.

A pity they didn't improve the resolution from 2K to 4K to make it more of a worthwhile upgrade from the S330. They have also not included the radar detection where you can control the sensitivity for each angle. The low light sensor is slightly better, the removable swappable battery & light for colour night vision may be useful additions. However the light will drain the battery faster & if you already have a porch light will you get colour night vision if you turn the lighting mode off? It would have been useful to know how well the "Bionic Mind AI" works in identifying peoples faces & triggering events. Because on the S330 i have the facial recognition isnt that good. The Google Nest Doorbell i had is much better in that regard & the motion detection detects people at a longer distance than on the Eufy. Where Amazon Echo is supported it doesn't work with the Google Nest Hub outside of the chime, no auto live view when the doorbell is rung.

One thing I love Eufy camera is that it doesn't have subscription fees. But I think their quality control is not very good, I have 2 eufyCam2, and one of the cameras drains the battery much faster than the other one, even though the one that is draining the battery has way less activity in the area. I also have a Eufy 2c camera, A few months ago, it constantly said to establish secure video access, was unable to play live video, and went offline all the time. I am glad this doorbell has a removable battery to replace the battery.

I had the same issues with Eufy, after a couple months it crashes and goes offline, if you reboot by detaching the wires and re-attaching it will work a couple days and go offline again, so basically a brick, worse than a dumb doorbell as you can't even ring the doorbell. And Eufy replaced it under warranty but the replacement unit had the same problem so I asked for refund but they said they couldn't do that because I didn't purchase it directly from them. So basically they don't fully honor the one year warranty if you purchase from Amazon.

I bought this on your recommendations and reviews and regret it. I'm not slamming you, I love your channel, but this camera is buggy, big time! The image quality is amazing, the dual cam is awesome, and the tracking works as advertised. Unfortunately the so called smart software or what they claim is Ai, is anything but. After months of messing with settings I've come to accept that this thing will trigger all day every day for multiple reasons that cannot be adjusted, so I just delete dozens of videos every day. I cannot confirm the false trip causes, but I think there are a few in my case; 1. Rapid temp changes. I live in San Diego and today for example, my camera is in 46 degrees and it's dark outside. The sun will hit my camera at around 10:30am and the temperature will rise rapidly to 70 degrees, and of course the sunlight will warm the camera itself even more. I'm guessing the physical expansion of camera materials trigger back to back videos for about 15 minutes. 2. There is a pool in my camera's view that cannot be edited out of the settings because I need the surrounding area of the pool to be monitored, and I believe the occasional movement in the pool water sets off the camera too. 3. A third false trigger is a complete mystery, although I think it might be water droplets, dew, dripping from the edge of my roof and passing close in front of the camera. I can't be sure about this one but again there are several of these that only occur in the morning and the video show drops of water dripping in front of the camera, but onto the camera.

I also can’t pair the E340 with my existing chimes from the eufy 2K which is ridiculous. Eufy making you buy new chimes for their doorbell is a ripoff when they could have easily made it work with their existing chimes that are placed throughout my home. Only good thing about the e340 is the second camera for package detection. Unfortunately I’ll be returning the E340 and sticking with my 2k doorbell a little longer.

I rather get 1080P with 20-30 fps and less compression and higher bitrate. i feel companies are throttling down technology in this sector to milk consumers with the current hardware we are seeing today. No way in 2023 a company cant make a decent doorbell cam that actually does 20-30fps with higher bitrate. EZVIZ and some other doorbell cams from few years ago were doing higher FPS as a wired powered doorbell cam

However the doorbell does still activate when it detects motion & will ring. The events are recorded only if the Homebase has power but not viewable until the Homebase is connected to the internet. It should be the same for the E340 & the Homebase 3.

I know this videos old but can you tell me if you can turn the outside chime volume down if you still have the doorbell set up? Some places say no, some places say no but you can turn it down. Turning it down is fine if it can get reallyyy quiet. Just dont want it blaring out each time. Why does the outside person need the chime? lol. The lights should be enough. Dunno why smart doorbells make it so loud.

Great review. Do you know if this pairs with the Homebase 2?

Hi, thanks for the nice video! I wanted to ask you, do you receive notifications with the photo of the person they pass by without ringing? In this model I noticed a slowdown that the doorbell uses to capture the image of those who pass in front and sometimes if they pass in a hurry or don't stop in front they don't even take the photo or start the recording.....there is something to do set yet or is this model just like this? I had eufy video doorbell T8200311 wired but it caught everyone even people who were passing by quickly...

Do you know if Eufy ever responded to storing facial recognition data on their coud servers without customer's consent? For customers using Homebase for example. Also, if Eufy ever fixed their API because the video stream was being transmitted unencrypted and anybody with the URL to the video stream was is able to see the stream? No encryition of any kind. I'm sure you have heard about the Eufy security scandal. I don't know if Eufy has ever responded or addressed the flaws. I'm looking for a good secure cloud-less solution to a doorbell for my home.

I just got it, and right on the box it says that it has pre-roll recording when powered through a hardwired connection. I haven't installed it yet, and will likely operate it on battery power until I can get around to relocating the wires.

Yes, my box also has that but Eufy hasn’t implemented the update yet.

@@LifeHackster I just read a few posts on the eufy community support site where some people say that eufy support told them that they expect to have it working with a firmware update in December. We'll see if that gets pushed back again and again and again, like it did when they promised a bunch of other cameras would support the HomeBase 3.

Can you have the light come on during the day ? We have a slightly dark entryway and our Ring doorbell gets fooled by the light behind the person making it hard to see them on the camera.

I have a problem, I have connected it with wire but he uses battery power and every day I get notification is fully charged. The wired connection is good because if you ring you hear the chime that is wired connected. How can I fix it? It should work constantly with wired power.

With Ring increasing their pricing again I don’t find it worthwhile spending £50 a year just for my Pro 2 doorbell. I had Eufy but they only have one sided audio recording and more false motion alerts. What other reliable doorbells are there?

Great video LH, thanks. Question in regards to linking the E340 to the home base 3, my app software is v4.790_1371, when select edge I don’t see any of the features you were talking about. I was trying to link my video doorbell to the home base.

Does this record only when someone clicks the button or when there is motion? And no subscription ? Do I have to delete old videos to make room or does that do automatically

It can detect and record motion events. No subscription and it automatically records over old footage.

@LifeHackster is it possible to have the eufy doorbell calling the phone when its pressed? or is it text only notification? i didn't see an option to change that feature. Do you thing eufy could upgrade that in future software update?

The dual door bell I purchased with the home base 2 no longer will hold a charge after just 15 months. The company told me they can't replace the battery. So I lost over $200. I DO NOT RECOMMEND
