Disappointing Battery Life I have had the Eufy E40 outdoor camera for 17 months. In terms of performance and battery life it has been really good until a couple of weeks back when the battery started losing 50% of power within 2 days of being fully charged. These batteries are non replaceable and the warranty is 12 months, so nothing to be done other than buy a replacement. I am disappointed that this product, like so many nowadays, almost seems to have a built in obsolescence. I think I will look elsewhere for a replacement, hopefully with a longer warranty.

Overall I am happy with the cameras Overall I am happy with the cameras but there are a couple of points that could be improved. On the positive side they are easy to install and set up and work perfectly with my wi-fi and chosen location even though they don't get direct sunlight for more than a few hours. The plastic mounting brackets are difficult to tighten as the smooth plastic doesn't grip well. The frame rate of the camera is set at 15 fps and I would like to have the option to manually set a higher rate and record in 4K if the connection allows. I would also like to be able to only receive notifications if the face is not recognised.

Annoying security layers + no multi live view Why does companies add security that I dont ask for? Now you need some wierd code to view the cameras in the browser which doesn't work and is super annoying. I just bought three of them and now they're useless. Please let me decide my own security level. Also, in the preview pane you can only view one live stream at the time. I really thought these cameras could beat Wyze, but apparently not.

Great equipment, no elctrical installation required for cameras Great equipment, easy installation, pretty good quality. This is why one point was deducted; one camera does not work after about 1 year any more. Rest works remarkably good.

The only reason I'm giving it 5 stars… The only reason I'm giving it 5 stars is that it's free to use, no hidden or ever increasing costs. My Ring doorbell was probably slightly better than this eufy one, but there's no chance I was going to let them charge me double the yearly fee in only 2 years. The camera is quite sharp with vivid colours in the day but it lacks in quality when the sun is going down and it's almost dark. Sound quality is awful too. It'll do the job though and was good value for money.
