[@TechWithBrett]

This camera really has some incredible features! I'm mostly excited about never having to charge it again.

[@UnderTheFear]

I always loved that Eufy has the storage done locally. I'd go nuts if I was having to pay monthly to access my own clips on a different server. I'm truly a fan of their products!

[@pyro0671]

I think I finally found the security cameras that I’ve been looking for. The integrated solar panel makes it look clean and the ability to expand the storage of the hub is a plus. I’ve never had the need for cameras, but ever since they started stealing cars in my neighborhood the past 2 weeks I’ve been looking at different camera systems. I think you may have convinced me on these.

[@scotthumes2633]

I just wanted to let you know my sick five year old has watched this 5-10 times. It’s the only thing that calms him down and he is your biggest fan. Thanks.

[@TechWithBrett]

I hope he gets feeling better soon! I'm glad he finds it that interesting.

[@garryk6208]

Great detailed review Brett. Love you showing all the features and setup of the base and cameras. Love the ability to add your own hard drive to the base and the solar feature of the camera. No more getting on a ladder to remove the camera to charge the battery. 4k is another great feature and the detail of the picture at night is a big plus for a security camera. Keep up the great tech reviews on all the new tech products Brett. You are one of the KZbin reviewers whose opinion I trust on new tech products. Thank you Brett.

[@matsumimitsuhashi2206]

I just moved into a new house and have been looking into installing cameras for security purposes. I was dreading having to figure out how to run a USB cable to the cameras so this built in solar takes care of that problem. Love that it's also 4K!

[@IsmaelCairo]

Always very good tech reviews. Keep up the good work Brett! My favorite feature is that the system recognizes people and also a big plus is that the base station can accept a hard drive. And even better, eufy doesn't require you to have a monthly subscription so that all the camera's options can work. I have three suggestions for eufy and maybe you can pass it on to the eufy development team. 1. With the next new version of the base station an HDMI option so that you can connect it to a screen or TV. (Operation on the screen or TV can then be done with a special eufy remote or wireless mouse) 2. Further develop the app so that it can also be downloaded on the Google Chrome TV and on the Amazon Fire stick. 3. On a person/vehicle/pet detection, the base station chimes so that even if your phone is not around you can get a notification that something has been detected. (With options to enable/disable the feature in the app or scenes) Even nicer when the base station talks and says "person detected at the driveway" Top eufy and Brett! Keep up the good work guys 🙏🏽👌🏽

Great review of the Eufy 3. Ring cameras no longer function as they advertised and use to perform. Eufy has out performed Ring by a li g shot. Love the quality of images, the internal storage, solar battery charging that actually works, love the size of camera more discrete. Many setting options that other cams don’t have. Way to go Eufy. I’d love to win a set!! Thanks for your through review Brett

[@EricThurow]

The favorite feature with the Eufy cam 3 as I have come across so far is not just one thing. The first is the color night vision. The second is individual built in solar panel. 2 hours of direct sunlight a day keeps the battery charged for life of the battery.

[@TampaTec]

Solar cams so smart. Great review 👍

[@donlooyer7718]

My original Eufy solar cam only has local recordings to the camera. I like that it now has the home base. Guess I should have waited. Thanks for sharing.

[@BUDjonesa53]

I love that you can add your own massive storage to the base station!

[@mike605]

Great Video Brett. I just ordered this setup and hoping it will work with my phone and would like to see it work with my TV so I can watch it from my living room. Thank you again Brett

[@Rapg8029]

Great review of the new Eufy 3. The features I personally love, is that it comes with a solar panel in the cameras themselves in order to charge the batteries and of course the 4K resolution. The fact that I don’t have to constantly remove batteries in order to charge them myself it’s huge for me, very convenient and it saves time. 4K resolution it’s a big deal, since it’ll mostly be used as an outside security camera. Being able to see detail information on security video recordings it’s crucial. With all the extra features Eufy 3 comes with, it def makes this product a very well rounded security camera. Thanks again @Tech With Brett for yet another amazing work. I watch your tech videos and product reviews all te time. Because of you, I’ve had purchased a lot of tech gadgets for my home inside and out. As a father of 4, I try to make my home as safe as possible and your videos help me a ton. Keep up good work 👍🏻

[@halestorm5248]

I have been using Arlo for about 5 years. Now it is costing $21.97/month. Batteries only stay charged for about 3 months so I have to climb a ladder and exchange them. I like the Eufy system, especially the solar charging and hard drive storage. Great set up video. Thanks for the information.

[@kuervobolso]

I truly like everything about those cameras, but the fact that they’re wireless and solar powered is the best feature.

[@MrRobc81]

My favorite feature is the fact that's its solar and 4k. I have a nest camera outside but if I was to win these they will probably replace the nest for sure

[@MrRobc81]

Also I don't want to suck up but I've been watching and subscribed to your channel since the beginning and I have copied many ideas from you for my smart home. Keep up the great work

[@teamxstream3110]

I brought this product yesterday it's working well some when I get close to the camera with my phone it makes a static sound when I m talking though the mic an it be great if the ai when it recognizes a familiar face it doesn't see notifications to my phone but hopefully an up date in the future it could do that an I own a big property 950 square meters an no matter where I took the camera it didn't lose any signal bars what I was really impressed but it would of been great to get a hard drive with it I brought the 4 camera pack but I m really happy over all I rate this 9 out of 10 😊

[@davidschlemmer4115]

Loved the video. Considering making the move away from Ring and Eufy looks worthy of a shot

[@jjdinanno4147]

I love the video recording capabilities on the eufycam 3. Amazing feature to be able to add a hard drive. Game changer!

[@RickAgustin13]

GREAT WALK THRU BRETT!! Built in solar panel is best feature...only 2 hours of sunlight per day needed is an incredible advancement in technology...Hope to win one and try for myself...fingers crossed!!!!

[@ChrisL326]

Do the cameras use a wifi network directly thru the base, or is it connecting to the base thru the home wifi/wifi network of our choice? I want to put the base in the network closet and create its own VLAN on the network.

[@SamiDurm]

Eufy is one of my favorites. But it seems that with this launch it is ahead of other companies. Good job Eufy

[@basdfgwe]

Favourite feature for me is the solar panels, it means i can place it somewhere where I dont need to run power the camera - it will solve one of the reasons why I've been uhming and arring about installing a camera at the location I wanted.

[@hugabug516]

The expandable local storage on the home base is solid! 😊

[@abrahamgates986]

I love how the battery power is incorporated with the solar power. If you don't get solar power for a day or two once you do it will charge the batteries back up.

[@KitPogi]

When the update rolls out for Dual Cam battery support on HB3, will the HB3 serve as a doorbell chime just like the HB2?

[@szyslay]

Best Eufy setup out there !

[@timothylim2000]

Awesome camera! One of the best features is viewing the camera from the website. Thanks for the detailed review!

[@AC5000-r6r]

This is leaps and bounds better than the wyze cams I currently have and the storage onsite is very much needed!

[@MarkHaider]

Great review! I have a Eufy Cam homebase setup already, with the Eufy 3 I love the expandable storage and solar charging is awesome.

[@bkbrown5881]

I like that they are putting the solar panel right on the camera. Much cleaner look.

[@dodaankur2006]

Great review Brett. For me, Eufy is right at the top in the list of wireless security cameras. The best feature is definitely the solar panel integration and expandable memory. I recently moved into new home and these cameras will be a great addition.

[@billreid9537]

I really like this camera and 4K resolution. The local storage and no monthly subscriptions. I wish Canadians had a 3 camera option kit like the US. Now we need a 4K doorbell that is compatible with HomeBase 3.

[@jzajac02]

4K, solar power, and adding a hard drive directly to the base station are all great features!

[@TheHsan22]

Great features, however it is a relatively expensive solution. AUD1300 for 2 cameras and base station is up there, AUD2000 for 4 Cams and the base. Maybe by next Black Friday sales Eufy have sorted their normal pricing.

[@lonewolfwells]

Does it have a panic mode? Where u can make all the alarms and home base alarm go off all at once?

[@alexisvaldespino1819]

I would really love to have these cameras and the homebase to recognize and not having to set a alarm for when I leave the system can just do it for me I also love how I can protect my family

[@simpsontong9247]

Hi Brett Thanks for your review. One problem is that it detected my big dog during the night mode. What can I do?

[@rog3rbee915]

So excited on what eufy has done so far, I already have several cameras in my home. Really excited about the built in solar panel and expandable storage and bionic AI as well.

[@TheMadhavnrs]

very clear explanation.. Camera has some incredible features...

[@AlexanderBlaschke]

I think I will be switching from Arlo to this. Thanks for the info!

[@stilljay4409]

Quick question Brett. Can I pair 2 Eufy home bases to my cam and alarm sensors, or do I have to use only one Home base.?

[@johnnysleeze4389]

The best feature is definitely the solar panel, being that I don't want to run lines.. Adding your own hard drive for local storage is a great feature

[@SukhmanS25]

About to buy this camera, but wondering how they will cope with those 42°C summer days.

[@trackdayswitha45amg7]

I'm in the process of building my first home which is so exciting but at the same time daunting. When it comes to security there is so much out there but it seems Eufy is the only brand with true self monitoring. I don't see why I should pay someone to monitor when A.l. has come so far. Well done on eufy for capitalising on this and keep going 👍🏻. Definitely the brand I will go with for all my security 👌🏻

[@blkrazorback1970]

Will came stick out far enough from under roof over hang for sunlight??? I have gutters on front of my house

[@official_jeshua]

can the live feed be accessed far away for another country?

[@PNO7]

Have you got the hard drive with the bundle, if not could you tell me which one you are using ? Thanks

[@corycoleman6677]

What is the longest amount of time the camera will record for one clip if you set it to customize?

[@mele2259]

Hi Brett . Can you please do a follow up video when the s40 becomes compatible with the new homebase . Thanks v much

[@victorvek5227]

The timeline is available to view on Eufy’s website

[@bettyfuhrman6151]

Is there a place to look at history like before and after clips. Or if I want to look at a certain time?

[@PhannyObsession]

Can the Base connect to the Router via WiFi once it has been set up? Or does it need to be permanently hard wired?

[@mele2259]

Hi Brett. When motion is triggered and a familiar face is captured does it tell you for example “ dad is seen In the garage “ or “ mom is In the kitchen “ I set mine up and added 11 familiar faces and it still just says “ someone has been seen “ . Is there a setting I missed ?

[@Swiftiewillow13-22]

Greetings, I always see your videos, technology catches my attention. I have a question regarding this eufy cam 3C equipment, how long is the maximum continuous recording 60 seconds or 120 seconds?

[@coalregionrider18960]

Whats the wifi range on it and what speed do you need ? Id rather have a camera that dosnt run off wifi

[@robertclarke7411]

Have you found out the WIFI range?

[@kinglarry3727]

dose the Eufy app allow you to view away from your home , not on your local network ?

[@Gert-JanNagel]

Is it possible to give a maximum distance between camera and homebase?

[@NA-kw2ex]

How would you change the camera internal battery????

[@WadeSmith-bp7ok]

So just the base connects to the internet then the camera's connect to the base. Correct?

[@profiler6293]

can you connect this to your TV to display the footage? Or, does it have to be from the app?

[@mynus6436]

Great indepth review. Thank you for the walkthrough. I'm excited for Eufys 4k quality on solar cams and its ability to save everything locally. I'm currently a Google Nest cam user and local just seems to load faster and the quality looks way better than what Google is currently offering, additionally wanting cams and sensors all in one since Google got out of that area a few years ago.

[@daynagriffin7517]

Thank you, I appreciate you going over the app

[@JerzzyJoe]

Can you delete the footage from the hard drive and how many months of standard recording will the 1T drive hold.

[@prabjotusa]

Thank you for your detailed overview and setup! This video was really clear and helpful, as I have the older EufyCam Pro 2

[@hihowareyou3119]

Question If I put in a additional hard drive, will it still compress the 4K footage?

[@vincemanley3911]

These are awesome cameras and no need to put up a solar charge panel next to it, i am sold, no monitoring fee is awesome!

[@1slyboy]

Does this system work with HomeKit including notifications on Apple TV?

[@johnu.12]

My favorite feature of the Eufycam 3 has to be the 4k resolution. I'm curious how big a 30 sec video clip is. Thanks for the review!

[@petebox85]

The 4K video is amazing! Love the integrated solar panel. Love your videos, super informative as always. keep it up!

[@laurawatson6649]

Is there anyway i can connect my new eufy camera s30 with my homebase eufy2?? Its has been costly already to update camera eufy 3 but wasn't aware that i needed to purchase homebase 3 as well?? Is there any loops hole or other ways to connected my eufy cam 3 to homebase 2 please?? Thank you

[@robertwright846]

Just what I have been looking for here living I Arizona. The solar would be perfect and no monthly fees. A win win!

[@JohnShaw_]

Silly question but is 120 seconds of recorded video enough? What if there's an incident happening outside and it cuts out just when I needed it to be recording? Does the recording continue immediately after the 120 seconds and so on? I'm new to this field so I'm curious and tempted by this kit. Thanks 👍

[@subbab4]

Any idea why these are not available on Amazon? Amazons notice...Currently unavailable. We don't know when or if this item will be back in stock.

[@AmandaP0199]

Love the review, these look promising. I have wired eufy cams inside and out currently but I'm going to have to have some these.

[@Pale_Crow]

i live in high temps country where it reach 55C in summer. dose this cam endure?

[@edn8361]

TY for your review , it’s very Clear . I’ve 1 question , I have 3 cameras Eufy and if one detects a move and rings , i would like all my cameras ring ni the same , but i dont know how to do ? Thanks if you can Yelp me .😢important , i would like this when i choose a mode ( absent for example )

[@kylewheelhouse229]

I like the battery power + solar panel on top of the camera -- curious to see how it holds up over time!

[@omie26.]

It's great to see adding solar into home cameras now. Would like to see 24/7 recordings instead of events only.

[@TechWithBrett]

Yeah that would be nice to have. I'd love to see my Time Lapse features and such show up as well.

[@jeikobu_jeikobu]

@21:14 Wait.. does this mean you cannot view the video in realtime via the Eufy app?? You have to go to the website??

[@victorvek5227]

You can view them in the app, but only one live view camera at a time. You cannot live view all cameras at once

[@Thefusionhomeblog]

We often struggle with cameras and battery life, especially as we live off-grid. Would love to test out the solar power feature on this. Thanks for sharing and great video!

[@teaglet]

Thanks for the post. Seems the mounting brackets are pretty weak, I just received my eufy cam3 cams. Seem like it wants to slide down, of course not installed on a wall yet. We’ll see.

[@teaglet]

I was right the camera will not stay level, some how that not right

[@jodiejones3164]

I love the fact that this doesn’t require charging!!!❤🎉

[@timschannel910]

How much is a drive for the base.

[@poohman9306]

I really like the solar panel integration and the ssd storage option the most. I would love to try this out. I currently have ring cameras but constantly charging the batteries is exhausting. I notice Eufy is way more innovative with their products compared to ring.

[@ThickChickFitness]

I totally agree about the ring camera

[@kevinpeng4319]

Hi Brett, great review! Could you explain how the sun icon works? Ie. I assumed that it appears when the sun shines onto the camera/solar panel (logical right?) and is charging the battery but actually this is not the case. It sometimes comes on in the sun's shadow. Any idea? TIA

[@jasondebraux6695]

Do the activity zones actually work on this camera system?

[@jayq3550]

Eufy is changing the game! Love the new AI, no subscriptions, 4k & solar?! Sheeeesh. About time I start swapping out my Nest battery cams

[@MrNickFOOF508]

I like that the new homebase will work with previous devices and has the advanced AI. Great review!

[@victorvek5227]

Doesn’t work with ANY of their wired doorbells unfortunately. 😞

[@louis5352]

Nice video. I got 3 cameras like you have with the same base. My front camera sends notifications seamlessly, but my other 2 cameras do not send notifications even though they have been setup like you did and are recognized by the HomeBase. I walked in front of these 2 cameras like 10=15 times and zero notifications. Any comments on why no notifications on 2 cameras, but the front one works perfectly? Thanks as I really want to like this system.

[@KeiTakeshi21]

im in Vancouver and aside from summer, we don't get much sun. does it charge effieciently even when cloudy? or does it have to be beaming sunlight?

[@FuneralLiveStream]

Is it only 3 cameras that can work with this system?

[@Cameraman00001]

Do you know if this doesn’t have an issue with the Google monitor ?

[@tusharpatel4160]

Does it record 24/7, or I need to turn on the recording? Also can we attach a hard drive using a USB for storage or I have to mount it inside the base?

[@robfinney7396]

Looks like a great product. What is the integration with Google Home like? It would be good to see that in action

[@venturaramos1576]

Really awesome features. Love the integrated solar panel design.

[@MickfromAU]

For both types of eufy security cameras when I try to set an activity zone it only gives me a rectangle which i can resize. Most of these videos show a polygon which can be highly modified and reshaped to suit

[@Sami-rp7mf]

Can you replace the battery after 2 year if it goes bad?

[@MarxzTRD]

I have a dual band router is that going to a problem with connectivity? I had 6 SimpliSafe outdoor cameras and none of them would connect because it required a 2.4 bandwidth which i had but i guess the dual band was interfering.

[@Karvega11]

Not bad, our home definitely needs some of these in our neighborhood!

[@EstebanAquite]

This is a grate camera, let’s hope companies in the future follow.
