I have 4 Eufy cameras, mostly bought before the troubles a few years ago, though one in the last year. My ca. 2021 doorbell had the lens fall off right before the end of the warranty. Eufy sent out a replacement promptly. I have specifically chosen not to put any of their cameras inside my home but have not removed their cameras from my exterior (and as stated above, have added an additional). Their app is perfectly fine, save for the occasional annoying popup or overlay to buy more cameras. Their security concerns and lies don't make the cameras any worse or better than any given Wifi Camera made in China and storing/processing videos in the cloud, but they do make them liars. I have enough belief that my stuff is primarily local to the Homebase but I never can be (and never was) perfectly sure.
Went from Ring to Eufy Doorbell with Chime add-on. 1) Ring is far superior at marking the same motion as an "event". If I stand on my porch watering plants the Ring would alert once. The Eufy "sees" motion ever few seconds and alerts continuously. I can log 5-10 alerts for 30 seconds of watering, filling up my phone with notifications. It can act similarly for strangers dropping a package and taking a picture, etc ... This seems like a software immaturity issue, maybe the can fix it in the future? Camera is great though. 2) The Chime add-on setup can be finicky. It will get to a part in the instructions where it says to join the network of the Chime. But, doing so will be a dead-end and you will have to start over. Just acknowledge the message and move forward. Secondly, the instruction have you plug it in ... THEN you need to take a picture of a QR code on the device, guess where that QR code is? Yuuup.... It's on the bottom, so then you need to unplug it, and then take the QR picture, then replug it and wait for the Chime to self-initialize again. But once in place, it works well. We have about a 1 second lag between button press and alert which is acceptable.
I have a Eufy and haven’t had any issues. I’ve had it installed through a TX summer without it frying, so I take that for a win lol. No connection or WiFi issues at all. I got the hardwired (also has the battery to be only battery powered) and the homebase 3.
I have a Eufy battery doorbell cam and another cam over my driveway with a solar panel charger. They connect to a hub that also chimes. I have no complaints. Vastly better than Ring, in my experience.
Have to charge mine every two weeks. Really I charge it weekly and it's down to 50%.
I have a eufy video wireless doorbell. It works great but does require charging every month or so which is kind of a pain. You could use the power from the existing doorbell and not have to charge one. It probably Would be simple to store the old one and reinstall it if you move.
Also, mine does not have a removable battery like the 430 so that would make charging a lot simpler if you bought a spare.
My Eufy without the home base has worked great.
I have the doorbell camera. Every two months, it loses its audio capabilities. I have to pop it off of its mount and disconnect the power wires, the reconnect and reinstall, and it works again. I bought it to avoid another monthly fee. That is its only pro.
