This doorbell has 2 cameras, so you don't miss anything and you see exactly who and what's at your door.
The doorbell and camera distinguish between acquaintances, strangers, animals, and packages and you don't need a subscription for this.
Because the camera and doorbell store images locally, you don't need a cloud subscription or SD card to review images.
The battery life decreases if you use the camera more than 5 minutes per day.
The storage capacity is limited to 16GB.
Product description
With the Eufycam 2 Pro 4-pack and the Eufy Video Doorbell Dual 2 Pro, you'll never miss what's going on at your front door and around your house. This smart doorbell has 2 cameras, 1 at the top and 1 facing down. As a result, your doorbell doesn't have any blind spots and you can see everyone at your door entirely. The camera at the bottom also recognizes packages in front of your door. You can connect the video doorbell to your current wiring or use it wirelessly thanks to the built-in battery. The Eufycam 2 Pro security cameras monitor the rest of the area in 2K image quality. The cameras and doorbell recognize people, so you won't get any false notifications. You can watch footage in the Eufy app. You can connect both devices to the HomeBase wirelesly. First connect the base station to your router with an Ethernet cable, so it recognizes your WiFi. The base station can now connect to your WiFi wirelessly as well. This base station has built-in storage, so you don't need a subscription to watch footage.
The perfect cameras to secure your home and garden!
2K video quality (in Eufy app)
Installation is easy
Collaboration with, for example, Apple HomeKit (and homekit secure video)

After doing a lot of research between the different cameras on the market, we finally opted for the Eufy 2 pro 3-pack + doorbell.
Delivery was as I am used to from Coolblue. Ordered in the evening and the next morning Post NL was already at my door with my package. We always have to wait and see what kind of creative things are on the Coolblue box and it gave me a big smile again!
When I opened my package, I immediately noticed that I made the right choice. You can feel that Eufy products are of high quality in everything.
The installation of both the doorbell and cameras is super easy. The Eufy app works great and there are plenty of options. So take your time to set up the cameras to your liking.
The image quality is very good, both during the day and at night. Please note: in the Eufy app the image quality is 2K. If you use the cameras in combination with Apple HomeKit, the image quality in Apple's Home app is unfortunately only 1080. It would be nice if Apple would support this in the future. You can of course use the Eufy app and Home app side by side, so you can use the best of both.
The detection of the cameras is very good, although I do live in a quiet street so if there is movement I immediately receive a notification on my phone. Notifications always come to my phone within seconds so that's totally great.
Unfortunately I can't say anything about the battery life yet, but I assume that it will last for the time being.
My house is currently equipped with 3 cameras, but I'm even considering buying one more. Then all corners are covered and the cameras can work together perfectly.
Are the cameras recommended? Yes, in my opinion these are the perfect cameras to secure your house, shed and garden.

Highly recommended: the best wificams ever seen!
Image quality
Ease of installation
HomeKit integration
Battery consumption with more frequent use
Never found a good product in the past when it comes to wireless surveillance cams. Or bad battery, or high cloud service subscription costs, or no integration with HomeKit, or bad picture.
With the release of the Eufy 2K, I saw all my needs fulfilled and went on a deeper investigation.
A few ambiguities remained. Unfortunately for the first time in my life I was disappointed by Coolblue's customer service: no satisfactory answer from them. Maybe people still have this problem. I will write it down in my review.
In another review on the non 2K version of the Eufycams I read a bug related to motion notification. This would only be triggered when moving sideways. Doesn't work (anymore) with the 2K version. The movement is properly registered in every possible way and the recording starts if desired.
The Eufycams are linked to Apple HomeKit at my house. The motion detector also triggers my garden lighting in this way. This really works great every time.
Then I wondered if the cams could be mounted "out of the box" on a house wall. Finally, they should be rotated 90° to visualize the garden path running parallel to the house.
This is not possible with the magnetic holder, the 'screw holder' succeeds in this. However, you have to remove a small piece from the screw (cut, melt) in order to be able to turn the camera holder further. Works fine BUT not at night using the IR leds. The installation manual also warns about this: the IR LEDs are so bright that your wall appears strongly lit in the dark and the path to be monitored is no longer visible.
The IR LEDs can be switched off. With external (infrared) lighting, monitoring in the above manner can be achieved.
In the Eufy app, the cameras can be set to generate a notification in every possible way. At home, not at home, at certain hours, etc. When set to "with thumbnail", the AppleWatch user also sees a photo of the object that triggered the movement. Very important added value if you are often at the wheel. Attention, a disadvantage for HomeKit users: the AppleWatch shows you a notification, but no photo of the trigger like the Eufy app does.
In terms of notifications, HomeKit (paired with a hub) and the Eufy app are about equally fast. With the Eufy app you can have a conversation with the camera within ten seconds after notification.
Here we immediately come to another disadvantage for HomeKit users: listening is possible via HomeKit, but unfortunately not speaking. Too bad, because thanks to my Netatmo doorbell I know that "two way" audio is supported by that platform.
The following statement is not 100% sure, but here it looks like:
The cameras seem to opt for a connection via WiFi if this is stronger than the connection to the Homebase. I have a camera that is 100m (with several walls) away from the Homebase. Good wifi in that spot and perfectly stable connection with the camera as a result. Another camera is close to the Homebase, with one wall in between, but previously bad WiFi. That camera also gets a strong connection and works very stable.
Reviewing the battery consumption is still too fast. Linked to HomeKit, I certainly don't seem to be getting the 365 days promised. The cameras that are located in places where there are between 10 and 20 notifications on my domain daily, have already dropped to 93% battery capacity after a week.
One guards the carport and it is only triggered when getting in and out of the car. It still has a nice 98% after a week.
Naturally, a lot of testing and adjustment was done in the first two days, including assembly and associated perils. In any case, not many alternatives will do better today. It's perfectly usable.
In a fairly green environment, the stark white camera catches the eye very clearly. This can be an extra problem in theft-prone areas. On competing sites there are black covers for sale to wrap the cams with. There are two of them on the way at the time of writing.
The anti-theft siren is very noticeable in a residential area like ours. When testing this system, I immediately got some curious looks. If you live next to a busy job, this will certainly not suffice.
All in all a wonderful system. I initially wanted to fully integrate them into Apple HomeKit to save recordings with HomeKit Secure Video. However, the Eufy app with its local recordings works much better (and cheaper) than HomeKit Secure Video. Certainly the lack of thumbnails on the AppleWatch with HomeKit and the lack of two-way audio also in HomeKit makes this system less interesting.

Good set but broke quickly. Return and warranty is bad!
Easy installation
Good image quality
User-friendly app
Quick defect (already 2x broken camera within 6 months)
I bought this set including doorbell because of the good reviews and because it was a competitive offer.
Unfortunately, immediately after installation I already had a defective camera, for this I had to send the entire set that I had just hung up.
A few months later another defective camera so I had to disassemble the whole set and send it back. Unfortunately, something went wrong and I got the wrong set back.
In the end I had too many defects in too short a time, and too much hassle with return, so I'm completely done with it!
