[@daveanddianethrowingcautio5707]

After a ton of research we picked this camera because of the wifi / data options for a chunk of land we have wifi on while there but while down south for the winter we can use the data option. We have had it for 3 weeks now and have been having fun testing it.

Nice! Still going strong & flawless for me. I’m a fan.

You’d need a wired NVR system hooked up to a TV or monitor….for it to be reliable anyway.

Like I said, for it to be reliable…the smart display options are not reliable, especially with multiple cameras.

Thanks, George another great review. I’ve been watching you for a while and talk to you about a Wired system for my Home but wireless would be much easier for me at this time. Waiting for you to say this is the best thing since Tootsie Pops. Glad your health is really great now your new place looks awesome. ❤️🙏

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

I was always a bigger fan of Blow Pops. lol

I purchased an arlo go 2 after my original arlo go stopped working. The arlo go 2 requires a subscription to save and access cloud videos. I suspect that why my original one stopped connecting. The arlo go 2 only connects to Verizon and no WiFi option. Is this camera a good replacement?

Do they have a unlimited option on the cellular network I can’t find that anywhere?

[@yahyam5698]

Hello George, Great video! It was very educational and informative I hope you’re doing well. I’m currently evaluating some of Eufy’s latest security products and would appreciate your insights on a few models. Specifically, I’m comparing the Eufy 4G Cam S330 4K Solar, the Eufy Security Cam S3 Pro, and the Eufy S100 Wired Wall Light Camera. I’m particularly interested in understanding the differences in performance, features, and suitability for various home security setups. It would be great to get your perspective on how they compare, especially in terms of camera quality, ease of installation, and integration with the HomeBase system. Which one should I have? Looking forward to your thoughts!

[@Redjunglefowlhomestead]

I have the Reolink Keen Ranger PT cellular camera. This works very similar to it but I have had a lot of bad experiences connecting to my camera with the Reolink Keen Ranger. So I might give this one a try next. I also love the fact that this one has the AI tracking capability.

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

I’m still using this camera & I’ve had a great experience with it. Damn near flawless (at least in my circumstances).

[@venom5809]

Literally been looking for something like this. Have a building in NYC but I don't live there or have internet there yet and wanted a camera to monitor the place. This should work I think.

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

As long as you have decent cell service wherever you install it.

[@venom5809]

@@GeorgeLangabeer It would be outside over the front door on a busy intersection in Brooklyn so should be fine. Do you have one of those vandal proof housings to put over it that you can recommend?

[@GREGFRMLA]

I was thinking of putting it also in my storage unit, but I don't have an outlet; where did you plug it, or if I want to use it on a battery basis, how long do you think the battery will be sufficient

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

I’m lucky enough to have power in my storage unit. In your case, you could use the battery or get creative with the solar panel. Battery usage is hard to say. It really depends on activity. But if your storage unit has the limited activity that mine does, you could get a couple months before charging.

[@kerrycutting5195]

George, We live in rural MT and have a large fenced yard for the pups. We're not concerned with strangers approaching (They'd have to low crawl 1000 meters before even getting close to our property line, and we're an open carry state) but we do have a blind spot in the fenced yard that we'd like to monitor so when the dogs are outside we make sure they not chasing gophers under the fence and running and bothering the cattle. Is this camera the one you'd recommend? Thanks for your input and videos

[@garyralston4612]

Thanks George, great review. Will this camera work on a 5G system?

[@jcm9698]

Thanks for a good review, Eufy has a good range of products. Would love to see a side-by-side with the Reolink Go PT, especially out in an open field or somewhere you can setup and leave for a week or so for a good comparison over time.

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

Great suggestion. I’ll see what I can do.

Is it possible to insert my own data sim card into this camera or do I have to use the provided sim and their plan?

[@rorysalarms8110]

George Langabeer very neat Security camera and i like that it can do 4G as well very nice.

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

Yeah, the 4G is a great option. 👍🏻

[@scottjones9603]

Have you ever reviewed TPZ that zoom at least 30x? I just got the SV3C that has 36x… great but it’s not always user friendly and can just lose recording function. It’s expensive and big which is fine but anything else that’s better you’ve found? The initial field of view is also narrow and it loves to zoom in on my neighbors mailbox or the fire hydrant regardless what I do to the settings. Thanks

[@jeffkasler3387]

Hey George, Can I just use one of my Verizon sim card that's already active on my Verizon account? Or does Eufy make you use the provided sim card and sign up with them?

[@prudencekerr6430]

I'm currently installing these on a rural property with no other connection. So far very simple to use, but I'm confused about the recordings. Will it ONLY record when I manually push record? How can I record if an event occurs while I'm not watching? Maybe I'm just overlooking the correct setting.

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

This camera records any person and/or vehicle event, if you choose to set it that way.

[@bjornolsson6533]

Thank you for a great review. When I read the comments to this video someone asks you which one you prefer, Eufy S330 or S340. What‘a the main reason for that? What’s the major drawback if you choose S330 instead of S340?

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

There is no drawback. They both are great cameras.

[@mountainbiker4450]

Hi! Nice review. I currently have the orignal Ring spotlight battery cameras. They are decent for alerting me to the UPS fellow or other, but for facial recognition in the event of criminal activity, they are sorely lacking. What is the resolution of this camera and how would you say it compares to the 1080p of the Ring? What about detection range? And, do you need to subscribe to any monthly service or is everything stored on the SD card from which you can retrieve and download footage. Finally, what would you consider as a choice for a really high end wifi or cellular surveilance camera? Are there any options that record 24/7 you might recommend, with notifications?

[@polofunk]

Great Review, which one you think better outside the house, The Eufy SoloCam S340 or this 4G LTE S330, i live in the city in my area great Wifi Thanks George.

[@somewherreinmaine]

Hi George - thank you for doing all these reviews!! I am a long time Nest user, and would love to find an alternative. I am continuing to use my old Nest cams because 1) I don't want to switch to Google, and 2) the 24/7 recording option. Are you aware of any cameras that are indoor/outdoor and have a 24/7 option? I'm ok with paying for a subscription as long as I'm the only one doing the monitoring. I have tried out a couple of the solar Tapo cameras, and while I love their resolution compared to Nest, the detection is for crap. As it seems to be for most cameras...hence wanting to be able to check to see what the camera failed to detect and record. THanks again!

[@ricosaurus]

Thank you for the helpful review -- about to buy. I'm hoping it will work with a Google Fi data sim, which uses AT&T and T-Mobile -- I'll report back. The one feature I would like would be bluetooth transfer of video -- so when I walk to my remote property corner I could grab the complete new videos off the sim card without bringing the ladder (mounted out of reach) or paying for that data transfer.

[@MikeSuding-]

Thanks for the nice video review. I plan on using a 128GB microSD card. Does it have a feature to auto-delete the oldest event videos when it fills up?

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

You’re welcome & thanks for watching. Yes it does. It overwrites itself.

[@kencasper5807]

Excellent review! I really like the Eufy brand. I don’t agree with your comment about it being plastic. Pretty much every camera is plastic and if you had a metal camera outdoors it would rust, especially in FL. Look forward to more excellent reviews!

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

Thank you. I appreciate it. There are plenty of cameras that have industrial grade housings that are much better than plastic & wont rust. These brands just have people programmed to think this is the norm.

[@EdHotin]

So, if you don't use AT&T, Verizon or T-Mobile the 4G is useless?

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

It comes with a SIM card, so you can set up service.

[@rickygallion2272]

Does the data stay being used when it’s waiting for motion? Like is it only using data when it detects motion ?

It’s only using data when recoding events.

[@barryratner255]

Thank you for the comprehensive review for this camera. I bought this camera and I am planning to install it on a construction site. Is the micro 128GB SIM card capable of recording 24/7 which is my goal? Is there a specific setting for this or is a default setting? If so I imagine I can swap the SIM card and back up on an external HD as I want to preserve the footage on a monthly basis if possible. Any words of wisdom are appreciated.

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

You’re not going to find a good solar/battery camera that records 24/7 I’m afraid. It would drain the battery too quickly.

[@jamesking3330]

Does it need the homebase 3 for it to work

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

No, it does not.

Hi George, I've been following your channel for some time now. Great content and good reviews. Thanks for your honesty. I have the Reolink version of this Eufy camera called the Reolink TrackMix LTE. It also uses the EIOT Club SIM card. Although EIOT claims they choose the best cellular service for the camera, you can chat with them and change the service to any of the majors. When I setup my camera, they chose T-Mobile for me, I had to change it to Verizon which was the better service provider for this particular camera. Question for you, I'd like to buy this Eufy, did this camera communicate via 4G with your storage unit door closed? If so would you mind saying which provider worked for you? I am moving my son soon and putting his things in storage. We will be putting in a camera and plugging that into a power station for added charge in case the internal battery goes dead without AC power. Thanks

[@GeorgeLangabeer]

Thank you & thanks for watching! Yes, it worked flawlessly with the door closed (using Verizon).

[@DaddyBLUE90S]

How does it stack against the Reolink LTE

They are very comparable and you can’t go wrong with either one. It really depends if you’re already one ecosystem or the other.
