Video Doorbell C31, 2K FHD, Battery or Wired, No Subscription

This was a great value for the price of the doorbell. Bought because it can be wired to existing wire, I did change the transformer to make sure it was the correct amount of power. The camera itself and the app were easy to set up, and install, I liked it came with a wedge to tilt the camera to get more view of the doorway. Added the 128Gb sd card to capture video and added the Eufy Door chime unit as well. For no cloud service it works well capturing every delivery and every cat that strolls by, very happy with purchase adding one to our other home too.

This was recommended to me by a coworker and I’m so glad I made the change from ring. The clarity is by far the best and the ability to pan the view makes it a great choice by far. Easy set up too

I'm writing this review from the perspective of someone who, as an engineer, has far more tech knowledge than the average person. This product is half baked. Things went ok to start. I unpacked everything (there's some stuff like wires, mounting screws, etc a bit hidden), downloaded the app and inserted a microSD card. I started going through the Add Device on the app. The scan of the QR code on the device did not work well and it took far longer than it should to get it to scan (with my Pixel 9). I had to switch to my 2.4 network and then had more difficulty scanning the QR code the phone generates and the Eufy scans (It needs to be much closer than the stated 8 inches). Once past that, things were going well. Where I wanted to mount it had great WiFi and I mounted it (meawhile, I kept get 'human detected' notifications on my phone). During this setup I could see the live view and it looked great. That completed the install. And then it disconnected. No idea why. I had to Google how to unhook the device from its housing (very frustrating). I brought it back inside. Nothing. I tried to reinstall the device but the QR scan would not access the camera. I uninstalled/reinstalled the app and tried again. It got stuck on the connecting to WiFi section. I Googled how to factory reset it. Started everything from scratch again and same problem. Back in the box and back to Amazon. Congratulations Eufy, I will never buy one of your products again.

Mine came with the audio being malfunctional, I can hear sound coming in but no one can hear me speaking because it is permanently on mute, and I have not been able to fix it with the app. I only noticed it after I took the time to install the device, but it was too late to return. I figured I would just bite it because I probably would just talk at the door with my screen-door closed. The main purpose I need it is to monitor packages coming in and being left near the entrance, and the device does deliver this service pretty nicely. Video quality is excellent, very crisp and clear! Night vision is simply top notch! Motion detection is definitely working fine, it would pick up squirrels running back and forth. However, sometimes it would completely miss people walking up and dropping off packages, after fiddling the settings with the app, it kind of fixes it.

Great video doorbell! Good price as well. It is working great so far. It replaced a ring camera

The eufy Video Doorbell was surprisingly easy to install. I had it up and running in under 15 minutes, and the 2K image quality is sharp both day and night. Two-way audio works well, and I like that there’s no monthly fee for local storage. The app is user-friendly and gives quick access to live view and past recordings. On the downside, motion detection can be a bit too sensitive – I got alerts for every passing car and stray cat until I adjusted the zones and sensitivity. Also, the chime volume could be louder for larger homes. Overall, it’s a solid, budget-friendly alternative to subscription-based doorbells, especially if you value privacy and no hidden fees.

After numerous resets and SD card formatting I finally have the camera working correctly. The setup for whatever reason was a nightmare and made me really discontent with the product. Now that it's working I'm very happy with it but time will tell how it holds up. NOTABLE MENTION, my house is west facing and I got overheating notifications during a couple 80+ degree days that were out of normal for March/April. I'm suspicious that this is going to be a bigger issue come summer, located in the Northeast.

Had to buy a new Eufy doorbell camera bc the old one I had couldn’t connect anymore. Love this new one! Captures great motion videos. Set up was also easy and I like how it now can connect to your old house doorbell chime or home base.
