Great alternative to Ring video doorbell The video doorbell is working well and no need for paid subscription to have access to video recordings. The device was shipped quickly. Installation was easy and the app works well. This video doorbell replaced our old Ring video doorbell after their recent egregious subscription price increase.

Excellent doorbell & chime system The product (doorbell + chime) is excellent --- once set up ! Unfortunately the instructions failed to say that the chime device needed to be added before the doorbell was added to the system. One of it's biggest selling points is not to have an annual subscription (as per Ring) to view recorded data. All data is stored on an SD card fitted in the chime. Ring stores its data remotely and you pay a subscription fee in order to view the video records.

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.

Beware of where you buy…… and who from Two problems experienced at the same time, eufy indoor camera malfunction and battery doorbell camera defect, both well within warranty. Eventually….. camera replaced once eufy realised it was purchased from them via eBay. However, doorbell purchased through third party supplier, again on eBay. I have been dealing with eufy over this since 1st March, lost count of emails and got nowhere apart from being offered VIP 25% discount to repurchase. However, eufy discounts available all the time so no big deal. Concept of no subscription good, kit looks good, easy to use when it works. However, like others, find devices are unreliable, warranty not fulfilled without clauses and customer services is shambolic. Buyer beware !

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.
