HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 авг 2024
- Eufy recently released another indoor camera that is just being sold at Best Buy at this time and this is the Eufy indoorcam mini. It is smaller than their current indoor cam pan and tilt (solo indoorcam P24) and is missing a couple of features but it also does have 2 unique features that the P24 doesn't have. The price though is a bit more than the indoor pan and tilt. So, we will check out its features, do the unboxing, set it up, check out its video and audio quality and see if this indoorcam mini will find its way to your home.

I appreciate your work, inspirational.
Thank you so much 😀
Thanks for the thorough review.
Ring seriously needs one of these.
Nice thank you for the reviews very helpful
This was amazing. Thank you! I subscribed and bought 5
It’s $49.99 now just bought one yesterday. Thanks for sharing your review
Does it require a hub ?
Great review, thank you
Another very cool product from Eufy. I really liked the tracking speed. The audio quality on Eufy is always great. Video quality was good. Just wondering if the infrared lights are visible at night? Thanks for another great review and for keeping us up to date on new products!
The IR LEDs are tiny but visible. I have to compare this with the Pan V2.
Your content is excellent. Most thorough of the reviews I’ve seen on RUclips. I’ve purchased multiple cameras based on your reviews alone. I’m hoping Eufy is at least sending you free merch as a TY.
Awesome! Thank you!
Wow so much information in just A few minutes this is cool, I like it
Thanks.
Great review as always. Mainly use Ring as my go-to security cameras but may have to get this one for the tracking features.
Amazing video buddy
Great vídeo 👌👌👌
France 🇫🇷
Thanks! What brand SD card do you recommend and actually use? Just bought V3! Love your reviews!
Thank you. 👍🏻
You're welcome!
the product line with the “mini” label, and missing certain features while being more expensive makes it seem like the regular 2k will be replaced soon with a either upgraded model or a newer model. it would be great if they figured a way to make an upgraded non-mini outdoor model. (not saying this is going to happen, just a logical possibility considering the current state of products.)
if so, just before black friday would be a way to time its release.
Great video once again! Thank you. This camera is great but I’m looking for something more hidden and disguised… like a nanny camera. any suggestion? Thanks
I haven't really checked on nanny cams which might be a good topic that I can research on. Thanks.
Brilliant 👌
great video
Thanks for your straight forward review . Can i install more than one camera in the app ?
I need to place at least 3 like these in my place .
Video idea/suggestion - It'll be nice if you made quick vids showing how to integrated the various cams with google/alexa
Hi, nice video. Does this cam has any battery backup or works on AC only? TIA
Great video! Is this one better than the Eufy Indoor Cam C120?
Hello LifeHackster an avid fan here! i love your reviews and have been following you since. Do you know when is this camera gunna be available in Australia? TIA
In the manual, it says you can use it on a wall mount (page 10) it also has a picture. However, I don’t see the hole to screw in a mount. So is it able to use on a tripod?
OK from what I can see this camera is awesome...
1. it shows you with glowing eyes at night which makes you look freaky
2. it shows you in full Karen "I'm recording you mode" and reports the Karens faster than Receptionist can call security
3. it has clear picture, reasonable audio day/night and in various lighting.... not perfect but it's damn better than what we had ages ago and especially is worth the price IMO.
I just purchased it and I will be looking into playing with it for a little bit longer before finding a nice forever home for it, where it will serve me until it inevitably dies.
Should I get this one or the or eufy pan and tilt? Or the reolink pro?
I don’t have a USD card slot. I have an iPhone which doesn’t have them. How would I be able to record and save my videos to my photo gallery? Or get my videos uploaded to my RUclips channel? Thanks!
Hi,
I have just purchased the eufy products with homebase 3 . Does eufy make a wireless indoor cam like ( ring stick up) ? I like the eufy products so far but I do not like a public in for indoor as I am limited. Thank you for your input.
Heber
Is it possible to use two phones linked to this or the older device so both myself and my wife can operate and view
hi , thanks for the review :-) , to be sure the mini is the last model right ? but it seem not to be available anymore, I don't find it anywhere (I'm in France) ! do you have informations ? thank you . it seems the easier for me vwould be to buy the E220, thanks
Just got this camera and the only real negative is the loud static background noise. Hope they make a fix for this.
which recommendation eufy indoorcam mini VS Ezviz C6n 4mp?
Thanks for the review...I've got the P24 tilt and pan. Comparing it with the mini I don't see much advantage with the mini except the more tilt which is great if you place your camera on a table or a shelf. Also the privacy feature in mini is nice, but in my P24 I do the same manually by just turning it towards the wall. Also the wider lens in the pan and tilt makes it better than the mini.
There is really not a lot of difference both are pretty good options.
Can you connect both of them to the homebase 2?
Can I put anywhere this camera without charger if sd card inside .is it working?
does this work with the eufy keypad? say if i arm my system using the keypad, all the sensors will work and also the cam mini will turn off the privacy mode and start recording and when i disarm my system with the keypad the sensors will shut off and the cam mini will enter privacy mode again?
does eufy mini have the auto reboot option through the app ? thank u
what kind of phone do you have I even put this pos next to router won't connect I have 2 g and 5 g can you help
I bought one of these cameras a few months ago I'm not totally happy with it I don't like that I cannot get the gel fencing to work. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but it sure seems pretty straight forward. In several nights a week about 3:00 a.m. it gets up and does its thing spins around
What are you recording the video with. Which SD?
Do you like the Wyze pan or eufy pan ?
Can I hook it to 20000 mh power bank.. And if yes.. How long will it last b4 full recharge
Can you add eufy cam mini to home base 3? If so how .
Thanks,
Heeb
is there an option to have this without the red light on? i want it for my baby room ?
Another gear video LH, loved the way you moved around during the tracking test. But that got me thinking.
Some times you get multiple home invaders. Just for future proofing your already great testing model, what happens when multiple people move around the room during the tracking event and how the pan & tilt cameras cope with it?
I have to check and test this out. I think it will follow the bigger or whoever is closer.
I've noticed that my units (2) will trigger motion notifications when panning and tilting in live view. Also have a ton of false motion notifications on both units at times. Does yours have these issues as well?
I only use human detection. I don’t use all motion because it will trigger those false notifications.
Great and since this is a stand alone camera I want something like this one that pick up AI and not every car that pass by. This will be inside pointing outside.
This should work.
@@LifeHackster I will look into this.
What micro sd card u recommend for indoors e220 K2
Wish i would have seen this first. I ordered the p24 on prime day and let down. Current wyze user but wyze ai and notifications still isn't as good as eufy.
1. P24 Does not pan down enough like the wyze ptz and the mini.
2. P24 Does not have the angle default. Which the wyze does as well as the mini.
Wanting to move away from wyze if possible. The doorbell has been meh. The color night sensors from wyze makes it good but the notifications are meh like I stated. So torn to move away from wyze but the loading issues and playback freezing. Not to mention no highlighted events on your timeline when playing back as the eufy has.
Any other suggestions to compete with wyze and eufy?
Can you view the live view continously for as long as you like?
For example, the Blink indoor cams only let you live view for 30 seconds at a time. Which I hate
You should.
Can this camera detects behind the window?
Great review as always! I've been super impressed with Eufy's ability to offer quality cameras at such low prices. I dig the noise activated track and recording! Any idea if it'll be HomeKit compatible anytime soon?
I'm not really sure if they are going to make this model Homekit compatible.
@@LifeHackster Sad it never arrived; since it´s even more expensive than the other Eufy 2k pan and tilt
Kamusta po. Sir tanong lang kung anong recommended nyong indoor cam para sa bahay? Anything latest in the future besides dito sa 2 options. Salamat.
Naah I will stay with my almost round eufy pan & tilt. They are the goat
@Pugna This one actually tilts down
Will this record to the Home base 2 if you have one?
Not at this time.
Will this camera trigger Alexa show when motion detects…?? Please reply…
do you have all your cameras on 24/7??
How long is the cord?
Can I add the mini to homebase
Wish it was wireless like other Eufy models.
Is the pan and tilt cameras really this loud when moving?
yes
Great review thank you so much. Do you know if it is possible to set-up the siren to go off automatically when motion is detected?
Does this camera record 24/7 to sd card in 2k 1440p or is it only in 1080p
Only 1080p for 24/7 recording.
I see you on eufy advising
Great Video, but the app setup is the most annoying experience I've had in a long time.
Yes do u have to hook this up to a a Charter Spectrum internet could you just hook it up to your phone phone that you're paying for monthly place like Cricket or any other phone Cricket or some other phone company
How many mobile phones can i sign in to?
I can’t find the micro SS slot. Where is it?!
You need to tilt the black part of the camera upwards (make it look up), it’s under there.
I’ve got mine hanging from the ceiling. Is there a way to flip the view on the app. It keeps showing it upside down?
Yes, you can flip it in the mount settings
@@LifeHackster yeah just found the settings :)
Is this compatible with the new homebase 3?
At this time, not yet. Eufy is planning to but I'm not sure when.
its wired or inbuilt battery supported ?
Wired/plugged in.
Why I can’t switch off the IR leds in night mode ? Or at least set the intensity ? Thanks
You can, just toggle auto night vision to off.
@@LifeHackster yea but I would prefer to have more camera sensitivity and the option to manage the led lights 😉
@@Mangold108 so half night visions? It needs the infrared to see in the dark.
@@erikpilon I want to use it with my own lamp
@@Mangold108 ah, like with Automations? Or IFTTT?
I’ll check tomorrow if detection can be enabled without nightvision.
What is the power supply? Does it support batteries?
No batteries
Is there a playback? Mine says there is no video for playback
Did you insert a micro SD card? Also you need to arm the camera in the security section making sure that the recording is ON.
@@LifeHackster Salamat! I forgot to turn on the continuous recording lol
is the Wyze Pan version better then?
I'm not sure. I have to do a comparison...
@@LifeHackster I'll patiently wait for it haha.
is it just me hearing things or this Eufy's best camera in terms of audio quality? i think i like it only prob. is no Best buy in Europe 😅
Order one off of Amazon.
@@bishopgeorge1333 it's Best buy exclusive as of this moment.
Eufy cameras has always been pretty good in audio.
walmart mine don't work
Brother can I install 4 cameras in my home and be able to watch them all at once in one screen?
Any idea how i access the 24 hour recordings on Eufy?. I have the cloud storage but can't find where i access the 24 hour recordings. I can only find the events? thanks for any help
In the live view page, click on playback. You will get to the timeline and access the recordings in your microSD card.
Two questions: is it limited to 15 frames per second and will it notify me if it loses power?
It’s not 15fps for me, maybe it’s 30, it’s smooth video. It won’t notify you if you lose power, because there’s no battery. It’s wall plugged.
@@erikpilon Thank you.
won't connect to wifi why
Does it work with HomeKit?
Not at this time.
can you reach out to Eufy customer agent and ask whether or not they will bring homekit support to this Indoor Cam mini? I'm currently using it and kinda like it, but the lack of homekit compatibility makes me want to return it :/ Thanks
Does this require a hub to work ?
no
i can't connect this camera with alexa
This camera was recording even you didnot go to recording ?
Yes..it records motion events or 24/7 depending on your setting.
Is there a slot for a memory card?
It says there is!
yes move the camera push up you'll see SD card slot but this camera is bs
Do you use ring or eufy cameras?
Both.
The source has it
All they have to do is put an IP6X enclosure and let users use HomeKit. That's it...
None of their wired cameras let people do what we actually need to do.
Home privacy mode BIG feature…
Eufy mini vs wyze pan 2
Yup. I'll be working on it. Thanks.
Do you know anything about coding devices that allows hackers to manipulate devices
Has anyone else had their camera(s) SELF-ACTIVATE while in Privacy Mode?
Have you heard of this happening often ?
Can't believe they haven't gone Type C in a new product. That's me out
It's permanently going to be plugged in anyway for power. Makes the hardware cheaper too.. Look at the product and don't overlook USB connection... Ffffffffs!
@@parvezahmedjalil7310 I expressed a personal opinion. Why the offensive remark?
Agreed! I've bought several cameras recently. The S40 and L40 (despite their crap connection dropping issues) at least use modern USB-C connections. The stupid $300 Floodlight Cam 2K Pro, despite coming out at the same time, uses Micro USB. I had to dig in my drawer for a cable for it. They could at least have made them all consistent. 🤔
Bro it's a camera not a mobile 😂
I can travel and see what happens in the house ?
Yes
💐💐💐🌹🌹🌹👍👍👍👏👏👏
Definitely gonna switch from Wyze their audio is garbage and have to pay $3/month per camera to view recordings. For $10 more currently get a way better camera
Just me. I think it looks shit. Not cute at all.
Having bought into this ecosystem (six Eufy cameras myself, and others installed for friends), I am consistently underwhelmed by their products. Sure, they're not going to be as powerful as the big PoE cameras and truck fleet cameras I install for work, but this little thing is rubbish. Almost like they don't listen to what their customers actually want at all. 🤔
This seems to be a recurring comment I hear. Thanks for the heads up.
They've gotten better since then
Speed this video up to 1.25 and you'll find him more bearable to listen to. You're welcome.
Thank you. I appreciate it.. 1.15 is the best setting..
