  • 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.

    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.

    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?

  • @HappyfoxBiz
    @HappyfoxBiz 3 месяца назад

    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.

  • @Fleed907
    @Fleed907 2 года назад +2

    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.

    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?

    • @LifeHackster

  • @bass_guy8074
    @bass_guy8074 Год назад

    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?

      @@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. 🤔

    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

    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.
