eufy Security - Video Doorbell 2K (Wired)

Their wired 4K video doorbell is absolute trash.

My bad, 2K!

Stay away from Eufy - I've had nothing but problems with mine. It fails to pick up movement many times, even when the subject is walking straight up towards the camera, the intercom system stopped working so I can't speak to the people through the doorbell, and it throws false notifications based on my neighbor's roofline from across the street. But then sometimes it will pickup the cars driving by the house, so it's fickle.

Sorry buddy. I am happy with my P24 and E40 cams but that damned doorbell, what trash.

Looks similar. Mine is the Wi-Fi Doorbell Camera, 2K

hard-wired

Mine doesn't have a battery backup and doesn't require the HomeBase system. On paper I liked it for the local storage and access of videos, without a monthly fee. In practice, woof.

Mine is the T8200

I wanted one with good visuals for both night time and facing direct sunlight that didn’t require a monthly sub & that could be hard wired to my old doorbell’s power source (no batteries). Got the “Video Doorbell 2K (wired)” & it’s exactly what I was looking for. I had a Ring before this one and its WiFi was spotty & didn’t let you review archived clips after your trial ran out, so it wasn’t for me.

Have the Eufy 24v wired version. It won't connect to 5ghz wifi, only connect to 2.4ghz. So right now it's a brick.

Eufy only works on 2,4ghz and not 5ghz wifi. That is the version that I bought.

I ended up using the Eufy Security Video Doorbell 2K. While it still needs wifi for remote access, its wired design means no battery issues and it records continuously with local storage.

I like the eufy wired doorbell. I had one of the older more original brands of doorbell cams, and the hot afternoon sun fried it after about 6 years. The eufy seemed a good replacement, and we’ve been really happy with it for 4 years.

I use the PoE version at work and other than a delay of several seconds that hasn’t improved permanently with updates (was fine at first after an update) but now it is back to ~4 seconds. Not a fan of my Eufy wired at home that won’t let me pull directly from it!

I've got a eufy and I really like it. The wired version allows you to pre-record up to 4 seconds, so you get clips that start before motion triggers the recording, which is nice. Sometimes doorbell cameras miss the start of something important. My parents have a reolink and the app kinda sucks. I can't remember all my reasons for disliking it, but the big one is that you can't set motion detection zones for the camera. My parents have a flag on their front porch so they have dozens of clips per day that just have the flag waving.

I've had the wired doorbell for 5 years now and I have 6 solar cameras around the outside of my house. I bought the homebase3 from them and bought a 2tb ssd so my stuff is stored locally. The doorbell gives me a ton a false positives because of my tree. It's basically only good for when people ring the doorbell. I love not paying a subscription though and the solar cameras have actually kept up. I don't keep them in my home because of security concerns from the company, but I'm being real here all our info is leaked anyways

I used the Eufy Video Doorbell 2K for a while and found it pretty solid. It's wired, so no battery hassle, and it delivers clear live viewing and night vision.

I tried using a wired Eufy doorbell for its live view and night vision, and while it does great in those areas and stores recordings locally, it’s not really designed for 24/7 continuous recording.

I have one and I would not buy again. It alerts on random things, such as stationary objects on the porch. It also seems to fail to note actual human movement at times. I find it almost useless.

I also am really unhappy with the Eufy wired doorbell inconsistencjes. The funny thing is, the camera we have is way more consistent.
