Thank you and yes, Eufy has fixed the spotlight issue and it is now working good.
Mom and dad are in the market for a new security cam system and I’m happy to say based on your excellent, informative videos

I just received mine in the mail yesterday. I’ll be setting it up today can’t wait to see how it compares to my ring spotlight cam battery. Great review as always 👍🏼.
Great as usual.
Thank you.
Great review, thank you!
great review man, subscribed!
Great review i'm sold 👌
thanks so much for your videos. you are making a big difference :)
Great review man. Good job.
Great review, very informative. I'll be using this for my home. Thank you.
Keeping it 💯 as always. These camers come out left and right. So many.
Thank you.
Hey I realise I'm lets say a little late on comments but your review has been amazing and very helpful so thank you. I'll sub right now.
I have had the 2c for a few months and it has held up in single digit temps outdoors. Mind you I have the black silicone sleeve on it but it is mounted outside right on the house. No other housing. Signal is great and have gotten speedy response in 4 degree farenheight snowy nights. Highly recommend this lil jem.
Thank You for another very nice review, Cheers
You are welcome.
Very informative, thanks for you hard work...🤙
I just ordered these cameras from my parents using your affiliate link. Thanks for the great review!
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Really thorough review. Thanks 🙏 heaps.
This is good reviewing bro thanks 🤩
Thanks for a great, in- depth review. I love my Arlo's but if they don't come down on the pricing soon, I might be tempted to give these a try.
Arlo is a total rip off especially the ultra IMO. Can get it’s full features unless you pay a subscription
Best Review i have seen about eufy. Like!
You are the best this was very detailed information.
interesting, thank you for the good advice and a great footage that you filmed!
Great video! Just bought one and this has helped... thanks
Thanks for doing this review. It helps me narrow down which security camera I want to get. After hearing somethings last night I was really freaked out. Laying bed not sure if I should go out side to check it out or call the police. But soon I can have a 360 view of my place, a peace at of mind.
You do a good job dude. Thanks.
Great review. Thank u
Hands down best reviewer on RUclips for these products. I honestly do need to watch other reviews after seeing your review. Subscribed
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Exactly my thoughts. What a fantastic reviewer. You do things so right. Subscribed.
110% Agree, I left my comment before I saw yours, and said the same.
I love your stuff man! I wish I found your videos before I bought an Arlo that I no longer use. Had major battery drain issues. I’m going to try this one and see how it goes.
how it goes?
This was a great Review!
Great review!
Excellent helpful video. Thanks.
i've been watched few reviewer. this guy tells more detail than others
Idk why but I KEEP watching these eufy videos 😂
Thanks for getting back!
Great review
Great video, thank you
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Fantastic piece of work Life Hackster. Thank you, very informative. Wouldn't mind if you added a comment in relation to the battery life of this unit.
Best review I've ever seen good work life hacker loved the video clip
Nice info🙂
Love the review I got the same system I'm from Australia great video mate have a great day :)
Thank you.
Your welcome thanks for replying back.
Thanks for your review. I just bought these cameras last week and they are performing really well. The night vision is much better than my old Piper cameras (1 of which died recently and will not power up any more).
My set just arrived can't wait to install them. Is the spotlight now working with motion detection?
@@tonyb282 Both of mine are indoors in my apartment Tony so I haven't tried it out.
@@tonyb282 any update on the spotlight
@@tavonlawrence2197 I leave the spotlight off but it does inhance the video when it turns on. I leave it off because if someone walks by and the camera detects motion the light turns on, like it should but then they know they are being recorded,and they also know the location of the camera. They could damage the camera or rip it down.
I have had several of these cams installed for 2 years now. They all work great.
Excellent review. I've been researching what model to get and had decided on Arlo. After watching your reviews I changed my mind and picked the Eufy 2C with an additional camera. It's fantastic, it was super quick and easy to set up and works a charm, very impressed. Over time I'll be interested to see how long the battery life will be. Thanks again, best regards from New Zealand.
Mark Atkinson any thoughts?
@@1885173 I really like the system but have to admit I've had loads of issues with it. At times it doesn't activate, an example was when a courier dropped a parcel off and it didn't even capture any footage despite only being positioned about 2 meters from the door. Just seems very temperamental at times, very very frustrating, I have been in constant contact with the "help line", they normally say the same thing everytime to reboot the home base, log out and back in or even re sync the camera's. I haven't heard from them in ages as they closed for Chinese New Year. At the moment, it's working well, I guess it's a work in progress.
@@akie64 Are they working better now?
@@xdeadyoungx I have the Eufycam 2c 4-cam kit w solar panels.
There is significant lag to start recording at low light (IR), and various other issues been stated on Amazon reviews. Sometimes if one camera is recording, the other is not, or if I am in live view on a specific camera, it will NOT record.
I would have liked the camera had a flash feature, instead of a light, and possibly picture at certain intervals.
IMO, certain security parameters should be customizable, for example, high motion sensitivity at night all motion, and human at day only etc.
The camera cannot be set in a 45 degree angle, the base limits it to a front mount style.
Also, I would like it had a feature to show continuous blinking to show system is active, to warn away potential intruders.
*The motion tests on his videos are vague and generic, most if not all tests done at daylight. Eufy is spotty in capturing images at night. I would say sensitivy cuts down about 30%.
@@akie64 any updates?
Good review
Thanks for great review from a fellow flip man. Just subscribed. Wanted to ask your personal preference on all the cams you reviewed.
Your the best great video Thank you
Outstanding video bro salamat !
Spot on real life review. Thanks for putting so much effort into your video LifeHackster !
Great Review. I love mines
Very nice review! Thank you Kuya!
They're smaller than they look in the pictures. This is a good thing, as I don't want to install cameras that are too obvious since I want to put some of them inside the house and I wouldn't want any possible trespasser to notice them right away. If Eufy isn't paying you anything they should, because you have convinced me to buy their products.
Thanks for the review, not sure if you mentioned this but the Eufy 2C only works on 2.4Ghz wifi and not 5Ghz. Many routers support both but some people may not be broadcasting on 2.4Ghz or you don't even know the password for it. It took me a minute to remember the name of mine, but I can say the performance has been great.
Also Eufy has fixed the spotlight issue, use the app to update your base and cameras. So far I'm very pleased with this camera system. Like many people, I had an Arlo system but now I think Eufy has a better deal.
Same as my doorbell camera, I couldn't find my 5g on the list, had to use my 2g.
Hi... Great reveiws... Top notch..
Can I ask you what is the best WiFi cam for night vision..? Likin the Eufy but you said some where better... Keep up the good work. 👍
Thanks great help
Just ordered the 2C 2 camera kit with the EUFY doorbell as well. Did a ton of research, seems to be the best option for now.
@matthew bradley We are happy with it as of now. We demand all visitors to look into the doorbell cam as it generates a funny looking face when you come close. Having too much fun with it 😂
Thanks for the great reviews! I am trying to decide between the Cam 2 or the Cam 2c. In your opinion is the Cam 2 worth the extra money? These will be installed at a vacation home. Thank you and keep up the great work!
Hi lifehacker.. Great videos.. I just can't decide between eufy 2c and blink xt2... I am going to use one in back yard and other in front driveway/yard..
Looking forward to your video of comparing all the EUFY cameras
:)
Great job. You made setting up my camera stress free. It would be nice to know how to save video from the home base besides in my photo app.
At this time, it can only be downloaded from the app. The footage in the micro SD card is encrypted.
Thanks for lot's of great videos with tons of info. I bought the Eufy 2C and could not be happier. Install was pain free.
NOTE: Spotlight works as it's supposed to - there is a setting to turn it on.
Yes..they have updated and fixed their software/app because of this video.
Hey there glad to hear it’s working now cause I’d think it’s pretty pointless with out it lol.
In your folks opinion is the spotlight good enough to not supplement it with another sep motion light?
@@BFCson Absolutely works great now.
@@ToRetirementAndBeyond thank you!
Great review, thanks a lot! Do you know if the spotlight turns on with motion detection yet?
EXCELLENT review, thank you! Just received the Eufy 2C and used your video to set up! SUCH a WELL-DONE video! By the way, do you know if Eufy worked out the bug on the spotlight activation at night with motion? Thanks again!
Has the spotlight been fixed yet?
good review, the best i seen of surveillance cameras , even doing performance tests over LTE/5G networks where is real life happening, if one use those systems of surveillance is when are away of home so need that work flawless with any network om your cell.
Awesome video he made
Superb review!. I've just bought a Eufy 2c set up with 2 cameras and hoping they'll be a good system for me. I'm also hoping Eufy have updated their software to have the spotlight turn on with motion detection, otherwise it defeats the object of me buying it as I want the led floodlight to act as a coming home light too.
How are you liking the cameras?
Great review! Would u recomend this camera system over the Arlo pro 2?
Dude, your reviews are excellent. Thank you for taking the time to do such in depth analysis, and also being consistent with each camera system. However if it was your choice would you buy the Cam E or the Cam C2? Watching your reviews I have decided to give Arlo a miss and go for the Eufy but I am now undecided which one to go for. I hope they add single cameras to the C2 as I need 6 cameras in total. I am in the UK and the UK site seems to be a long way behind the US site. Again Thanks
At this time, I’ll go with the camE until eufy fixes the light detection issue..
Thank for the reply fella. However if it’s just the light issue as to why you would choose the Cam E I’m a little baffled as the Cam E doesn’t have a light? However the 2C has better features and a usb upgrade stick for memory is about to be released. So I decided in the end to get the 2C before I saw your reply. Oh well time will tell as it’s not in the UK until weds next week to which I shall do a review for us UK guys
I have spoken to Anker today and the CS assistant said she did not know there was a problem with the light coming on with detection. My unit does not arrive until Weds so can you check one thing for me. She said in the settings there is a switch to turn on and off the light when 'recording'. Has she got an upgrade firmware or does your system have that slifer as well?
@@PegasusDroneMedia what is the update? I am planning to get 2c.
Thanks for the in depth and informative review! Any feedback on real world battery life? I know it varies depending on settings and usage, but a general idea of battery life would be great. I have a friend who has an Arlo system that also advertises 6 month battery life, but they have to charge it every 8-10 days.
Awesome video... Thank you for taking your time with this review. Did the motion spotlight bug get fixed?
Yes they fixed it..
@@LifeHackster so does it light up when motion is detected?
Would love to see you do the eufycam 2. Thanks for all your hard work.
I’ll see if I can test it out.. thanks.
@@LifeHackster Can you compare both ?
