eufy Security Indoor Cam C220

Really solid indoor cam overall. Video is super clear and the pan/tilt is smooth and actually useful for covering the whole room. Night vision looks great too. It does need a HomeBase 3 to fully work with local storage and the rest of the Eufy system, which some people might not like, but honestly, it’s kind of a bonus because it keeps everything in one place and avoids monthly fees, or you can pay for cloud storage but why would you with HB3. Setup was easy for me, but I’ve seen others say they had to update firmware or dig around in the app to get the HomeBase option to show up. Not a dealbreaker, just something to know. Motion tracking is cool, but sometimes it lags a bit or sends alerts for stuff that’s not really important. Also, it only detects people—not pets or baby crying—so keep that in mind if that matters to you. Overall though, for the price, it does a lot and works well once it’s all hooked up. Would recommend if you're already in the Eufy ecosystem or planning to be.

The eufy Indoor Cam C220 delivers clear 2K video and 360° coverage, making it easy to monitor any room. Setup was simple, and it works reliably on my 2.4GHz Wi-Fi. The best part is no subscription fees. you get full features without ongoing costs. Night vision and motion detection work well.

Dont wait until you're the victim of a break-in. Keep your peace of mind. These cameras continue to meet my expectations. Good fair pricing, easy to install, easy to set up. Again, only issue is the continued sub-splitting of WiFi signal with each new camera.

This camera, for the money, is quite a good deal as far as picture quality and capability. I was shocked that for the cost of $25-35 you could have a PTZ camera with 2k resolution. And since we already have Eufy, adopting another camera into our ecosystem was super easy. If you've never done so, it's as simple as using the app with a few clicks and the devices camera to join a network. It has no integrated storage, so a separate SD card is required, but thankfully they're relatively inexpensive. As far as video quality, it looks quite good (again, at this price point), and sound is alright at best. I wouldn't call it great but it's a security device and sound isn't of utmost importance. Now the reason I rated it so low was because of how bad of a device this has been since I purchased it late December of '24. It started out working fine and being responsive, but quickly the experience became degraded. The cameras PTZ was very laggy, sometimes taking 5-10 seconds to respond, and attempts to change most settings failed. The reason this is so infuriating is because the sensitivity, when set at medium, is way too high and it goes off when the wind blows. 1-2 is enough, but the camera refused to change. The only option I could seemingly affect was the default/hotspot locations to point the camera and AI tracking, and even then it got worse over time with responsiveness. Then the camera started not responding or allowing viewing at all. Eventually it died and I had to RMA it. Eufy customer service walked me through the required info needed and quickly sent out a new one, so shout out to them. Then the second camera did the same thing in regards to responding to commands, and in fact is worse off than the first camera. The only setting I can seem to change is (temporarily) turning off the notifications, and the camera seems way more sensitive on the same setting as the previous one. In fact, I pointed it at a blank wall and it still goes off. In short; Eufy's customer service is top notch, and their ecosystem is nice in comparison to other brands I've tried. Their other cameras seem to be just fine but be it a software bug or fundamental issue with this camera, I can't advise anyone buy it. In doing a search online for any fixes, it seems I'm not alone. Maybe it's because it's a cheaper item, but that doesn't make it acceptable.

Works well, but does not seem to support continuous recording. I'm using it with a home base 3. On recording playback, if the camera moves while tracking motion, you can hear the motor and it's not exactly quiet. I've got outdoor eufy cameras that move and track motion and they make less noise while doing it. Granted they are 4 times the price though. For $30, its hard to go wrong with this as a cheap potentially disposable surveillance camera. I bought it to see the cats and other creatures that frequent my patio and yard. I wanted something that is always on to avoid the wake up delay of my solar powered cameras since they sometimes miss things entirely due to the delay. I have this unit mounted to the ceiling in my covered patio. I purchased a tiny cruise ship 3 outlet extension cord that has usb ports and is water resistant. This allowed me to still power my patio lights and this camera without tieing up another outlet. It is fully sheltered from sun, rain, snow, etc. These inexpensive cameras are not designed for outdoor use so use at your own risk. If it lasts a year, I'll be thrilled. My only real complaint, is the same for all eufy 2k cameras. They are not very clear, it would be hard to see clear faces on any of the videos from any of my 2k cameras. I suspect the encoding is of low quality, so while the AI face detection does work and matches my added family members to their appearances on video, it'd rather blocky when you try and zoom in. Even after downloading the video.

Love this camera. Got the 1st one the a second and now the flood light one. I have an alarm system with a big name on line company whose cameras are TERRIBLE so I wanted back ups and I wished I would have used all Eufy cameras. Clarity, easy hook up and cloud back up, what’s not to love! The quality and function is great and the ability to pick up motion and ignore my pets is great. Buy this camera!

This isn't a bad camera but I did expect better based on owning it's big brother, the E30 indoor and it's older cousin, the E220 Indoor PTZ. I purchased this device as a replacement for the E220 Indoor, which is a solid camera but lost audio (the mic died after 2 years). I also wanted a preset / guard mode that allowed me to set where I wanted the camera to point after AI tracking, etc. The E220 Indoor would track something and then just stay wherever until it tracked something else. For all of this, this device works great. The live view is great and detection isn't terrible, though not the greatest either. The PTZ is pretty quick although the angles aren't the best, you get about 75 degree tilt. There's the option to use a microSD card or connect it to Eufy's Homebase 3 where it will gain some functionality (Facial Recognition and some others). It's as easy as any other Eufy camera to set up; you use the app to scan a QR code and proceed to connect it the way you want to. You can choose router or Homebase 3 as your initial connection and go from there. Keep in mind, it's easy to jump to the Homebase 3 from router connection, but not vice versa. If you want storage to the microSD, you must select router mode initially at setup or reset the device if you selected Homebase 3. The device feels and seems well made, it's not squeaky and nothing feels loose or fragile. Most everything is local (within your network) except for thumbnail processing so it sips data on your network as long as you're not constantly viewing it remotely and even then, not much data is being used. So, great camera, on paper. The downsides are simple but potent. I have mine connected to a Homebase 3 which is not even 15ft away and it still tends to either lag at pulling up or totally disconnect at times. Meanwhile other devices are 30 feet away and work fine. To remedy this, I've "bridged it" to my router directly and that seem(ed) to help with the connectivity. The next oddity is that even connected with the Homebase 3, some of the detections are pretty wild. I'll get lots of recordings of some water bottles sitting by our door as Human and even though sensitivity is set to low, I'll get people walking down our street and yet it will also at times completely miss/ignore the delivery driver that comes in, puts a package on a table, logs it on their device, takes a picture with a phone and walks out - this is with an activity zone set. There's some odd jitter or skip in recording. I've tested on both MicroSD and Homebase. Sometimes recordings will be smooth and sometimes there'll be a 5-10s skip which is huge. As an example, it once recorded a delivery man coming and dropping the package and then the clip continues where he gets into his van and drives off (yes, he traverses the driveway, gets into the van...misses it all). Finally, even though the device live views and records in "2K", I've found that when I download a clip to my device, it's in less than even HD quality, this really struck me as odd because even the E220 Indoor PTZ's clips download at a better quality. All in all, it's not a bad camera but I would spend the extra for the E30 unless you're using it to watch a 3D printer or something not that important. I'd be upset if I didn't have 2 other cameras covering what this camera covers for me. As with all Eufy camera products, they carry a 1 year warranty in the U.S so buy a 3rd party warranty, it's worth it.

What a simple camera! Bought this camera to watch the dog while we were away during the day. It can rotate side to side and up and down. With features like Infrared viewing with low or no light, it can see well enough. Connection is easy to link with my router. I can remotely from work. Great little camera.

Setup was very easy and it worked immediately without any problems. Fantastic product and no ongoing subscription fees which is why I chose this model. It streams video and sound when the camera is synced to home wifi, and you can watch it through the app on your phone no matter where you are. I got this specifically to check in on my pets when away and it's working great. 5 stars!

Great camera with easy setup and features. Clear image in both day annd night. Great app with little ad integration and great functionality Switched from another brand and very happy.

This camera works, it record decent quality videos and sending notifications if movement detected. There are a lot of setting and privacy more which turns camera away, AI tracking works, it's a good camera overall. But to me it has a little but very annoying shortcoming which make this camera hard to use. Initially I gathered a lot of information about this camera via Eufy web site and youtube reviews and selling point to me was that it has scheduler in the app which can manage camera modes, i.e. what time it's recording and notifies about movement and what time it is in privacy mode doing nothing. So my idea was that I'd set camera working when I'm away or sleeping and privacy mode when I'm at home. But it appeared that scheduler sounds alarm when it switches modes and sometimes this alarm is delayed for hour or two. Movement alarms works fine though, my experiments showed no more than 5 sec delay with alerts on movements. And scheduler alarm sound is the same as movement alarm, you can't change it. It's sort of Ok when you're at work but when scheduler alarm wakes you up - it's not good. Eufy support said that they might update it in next application/hardware upgrade and I hope they will. In the meantime I had to use a power outlet timer, so I just turn off/on camera power on schedule I need. It's not a very convenient thing, when camera powered off I can't do anything with it - i.e. quickly turn on from the app if I need it outside programmed time in power outlet timer or check past videos or change settings etc. So I made it sort of working but I'll hold buying another one unless Eufy fixes scheduler.

Works as intended, very clear screen and being able to speak through it is very helpful.

I have been a long-time user of Eufy Security with several Eufy cameras installed, but recent app updates have seriously affected reliability. Current issues include: • Automation scheduling cannot be configured because schedule times cannot be selected • The app has become noticeably slower to open and navigate • Live camera feeds and recorded videos take much longer to load • Cameras sometimes appear offline even with stable Wi-Fi • Notifications and event loading can be delayed • Solar cameras slowly lose battery charge even when there are little or no motion events Because the entire system relies on the app, these problems significantly affect usability. Support has confirmed that at least one of these issues is a known problem that may be addressed in a future update, but currently there is no workaround.
