Best Eufy Cameras (2026): Every Model Compared

The best eufy camera for most homes is the eufy SoloCam E42: it records 4K video, pans and tilts to follow people and cars, and charges itself with solar power, for about $180. eufy sells a lot of cameras, though, from about $60 wired models to multi-camera systems with a HomeBase, and the right one depends on where it goes, how you can power it and which smart home you use.

What every eufy camera has in common is local storage. Video saves to the camera, a microSD card or a eufy HomeBase, so you can use a eufy camera without paying a monthly fee (cloud backup is optional, see our guide to eufy’s plans). This guide picks the best eufy security camera for nine different jobs, indoor and outdoor, battery and wired, and explains how the rest of the lineup fits together. If you’re still choosing a brand, see our eufy vs Reolink comparison or our eufy vs Ring comparison. Our Eufy vs Wyze comparison puts eufy against a cheaper brand.

The Best Eufy Cameras for 2026

eufy SoloCam E42 — Best Overall

The SoloCam E42 is the best eufy camera for most homes because it covers a whole yard, keeps itself charged and works on its own. It records 4K, turns to follow people and cars, and saves video to 16 GB of built-in storage.

Best for: A yard, a driveway or a side of the house without an outlet.

What stands out in real use

The camera pans 355° and tilts 55°, so one camera can watch a front yard and a driveway, and it follows a person or a car as they move. eufy says it can read a license plate up to 33 ft away. You don’t need a HomeBase: person and vehicle detection run on the camera, and eufy says 2 hours of direct sun a day keeps the battery full. When motion is detected, it can switch on a spotlight, a strobe light and a 103 dB siren.

Key specs

• 4K video (3840 x 2160), 130° view
• 355° pan and 55° tilt, auto-tracking
• 6,400 mAh battery with solar charging
• 16 GB built-in storage, microSD up to 128 GB
• 250-lumen spotlight, red and blue strobe, 103 dB siren
• 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, IP65

Pros

• Covers a whole yard with one camera
• Built-in storage, so it records without a microSD card
• Solar charging, so you rarely charge it
• Works with Alexa and Google Assistant without a hub

Cons

• Records motion events only, not 24/7, on battery
• Face recognition and pet detection need a HomeBase S380
• 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only
• Digital zoom only

Installation and compatibility notes

Mount it where the solar charging gets direct sun for a few hours a day, facing south in most of the US. It connects to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only, so check the signal at the spot before you drill. A HomeBase S380 adds face recognition, pet detection and tracking across several cameras, and eufy lists Apple Home support (at 1080p) with that hub. For 24/7 recording, the camera needs continuous wired power.

Price: ~$180

eufy Wired Cam C31 — Best Budget

The Wired Cam C31 is the cheapest way into eufy. It works indoors and outdoors, pans and tilts, and records 24/7 to a microSD card.

Best for: A porch, a garage or a room where you want 24/7 recording for the lowest price.

What stands out in real use

The C31 shows color video in near darkness without a spotlight, using an f/1.2 lens that lets in more light. It pans and tilts for 360° coverage and follows people, cars and pets. Detection covers people, vehicles, pets, sounds and crying, so it also works as a baby or pet camera indoors. Because it plugs in, it records around the clock instead of only when something moves.

Key specs

• 1080p video, f/1.2 lens
• Pan and tilt, 360° coverage, auto-tracking
• Color and infrared night vision
• microSD up to 256 GB, or HomeBase S380 or HomeBase Mini
• Person, vehicle, pet, sound and crying detection
• IP66, plug-in power

Pros

• Lowest price in this guide
• Records 24/7
• Works indoors and outdoors
• Color night vision without a bright light

Cons

• 1080p, the lowest resolution here
• Needs an outlet
• No support for HomeKit
• microSD card sold separately

Installation and compatibility notes

The C31 mounts upright or upside down and comes with a weatherproof power cable, but it needs an outlet nearby. Amazon lists it as the Indoor/Outdoor Camera C31. It works with Alexa and Google Assistant, and it records to a HomeBase S380 or HomeBase Mini if you add one later (not the older HomeBase 2).

Price: ~$60

eufy Indoor Cam E30 — Best Indoor Camera

The Indoor Cam E30 is the best indoor eufy camera: 4K video, pan and tilt, and 24/7 recording for about $70. It’s also one of the two current eufy cameras on eufy’s own Apple Home list.

Best for: A living room, a nursery or keeping an eye on a pet.

What stands out in real use

The camera tracks people and pets as they move around the room and sends separate alerts for a person, a pet, a sound or crying. A built-in spotlight gives color night vision up to 16 ft, or you can leave it on infrared. Two-way audio lets you talk to a child or a dog sitter through the app.

Key specs

• 4K video, 125° diagonal view
• Pan and tilt, 360° coverage, person and pet tracking
• Infrared night vision up to 32.8 ft, color up to 16.4 ft with the spotlight
• microSD up to 128 GB, 24/7 or event recording
• Person, pet, sound and crying detection
• 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, USB-C power

Pros

• 4K for about $70
• Works with Apple Home, Alexa and Google Assistant
• Crying detection for a nursery
• Records 24/7

Cons

• Apple Home shows 1080p, not 4K
• You can’t use Apple Home and a HomeBase 3 at the same time
• 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only
• microSD card sold separately

Installation and compatibility notes

The E30 stands on a shelf and plugs into an outlet with the included adapter. You add it to Apple Home without a hub, but eufy says to remove it from Apple Home before you connect it to a HomeBase 3, so choose one or the other. It also works with a HomeBase Mini. For more indoor options, see our best indoor security cameras.

Price: ~$70

eufyCam S3 Pro 2-Cam Kit — Best for Apple Home

The eufyCam S3 Pro is the best eufy outdoor camera for iPhone users, because it’s the only current outdoor eufy camera on eufy’s Apple Home list. This kit includes two 4K cameras and the HomeBase 3 they need.

Best for: Apple Home users who want two or more outdoor cameras.

What stands out in real use

Night video is the S3 Pro’s strength: a large 1/1.8-inch sensor and an f/1.0 lens give color video in low light, and eufy calls this MaxColor Vision. Radar and PIR sensors work together to reduce false alerts, with radar detection up to 40 ft. The solar panel is built into the camera, and eufy says about 1 hour of direct sun a day keeps it running. The HomeBase 3 stores video (16 GB, expandable to 16 TB with a hard drive) and adds face recognition.

Key specs

• 4K video, 135° view, 1/1.8-inch sensor, f/1.0 lens
• Built-in solar panel, USB-C power option
• Radar and PIR motion detection, up to 40 ft
• HomeBase 3 included: 16 GB, expandable to 16 TB
• Color and infrared night vision
• IP67, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi

Pros

• Works with Apple Home, Alexa and Google Assistant
• Very good night video
• Solar panel built into the camera
• Up to 16 TB of local storage on the HomeBase

Cons

• Apple Home shows 1080p, not 4K
• Doesn’t record 24/7 yet (eufy says it’s in development)
• Needs the HomeBase 3, so it can’t work on its own
• Highest price in this guide

Installation and compatibility notes

Set up the HomeBase 3 first, then pair the cameras to it in the eufy app. The cameras connect over 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only. Add them to Apple Home from the eufy app, and they show up at 1080p. You can add more S3 Pro cameras to the same HomeBase later.

Price: ~$550 (for a 2-camera kit with HomeBase 3)

eufyCam S4 — Best Premium Camera

The eufyCam S4 is eufy’s most capable battery camera. A fixed 4K lens watches the whole scene, while a pan-tilt head with two 2K lenses turns and zooms in on whoever it detects.

Best for: A large yard or a long driveway where one camera has to see both the scene and the details.

What stands out in real use

When the fixed lens spots a person, the pan-tilt lenses lock on, follow them and zoom in, so you get the wide view and a close-up at the same time. eufy says it can capture details up to 164 ft away. It works on its own with 32 GB of built-in storage, and the 10,000 mAh battery swaps out in seconds. When someone enters a zone you set, it flashes red and blue lights and sounds a 105 dB siren.

Key specs

• 4K fixed lens (130°) plus a 2K wide and a 2K telephoto lens on a pan-tilt head
• 8x hybrid zoom, auto-tracking
• 10,000 mAh swappable battery, 5.5W detachable solar panel
• 32 GB built-in storage, microSD up to 256 GB
• Radar and PIR detection, 105 dB siren
• IP65, -4°F to 131°F, 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi

Pros

• Wide view and zoomed close-up at the same time
• Works without a HomeBase
• Swappable battery
• 24/7 recording when it’s on wired power

Cons

• No support for HomeKit
• Face recognition needs a HomeBase S380
• Expensive for one camera
• 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only

Installation and compatibility notes

eufy says 1 hour of direct sun a day keeps the S4 running, and the panel detaches so you can mount it in the sun while the camera stays in the shade. For 24/7 recording, power it from a 5V/2A adapter. It works with Alexa and Google Assistant. A HomeBase S380 adds face recognition and stranger alerts, but other eufy hubs (HomeBase 2, Mini and Professional) don’t support it.

Price: ~$350

eufy SoloCam E50 — Best Zoom Camera

The SoloCam E50 is eufy’s newest solar pan-tilt camera, released in fall 2026 as the next generation of the SoloCam S340. It has two 4K lenses, a wide one and a telephoto, and radar detection.

Best for: Reading faces and license plates at a distance.

What stands out in real use

The telephoto lens gives 12x hybrid zoom, and eufy says it’s clear enough to read a face or a license plate about 40 ft away. When it detects a person or a car, it follows them and zooms in, then zooms out when more people walk into view. Its mmWave radar senses a real body (even one standing still) and ignores shadows and moving branches, so you get fewer false alerts. It’s also the only battery camera here with dual-band Wi-Fi.

Key specs

• Two 4K lenses (wide 135° and telephoto)
• 348° pan and 70° tilt, auto-tracking and auto-framing
• 12x hybrid zoom
• 10,000 mAh battery, 5W detachable solar panel
• microSD up to 512 GB
• Dual-band Wi-Fi (2.4 and 5 GHz), IP65

Pros

• Sharpest zoom in this guide
• Radar reduces false alerts
• Dual-band Wi-Fi
• Supports large microSD cards (up to 512 GB)

Cons

• Doesn’t record 24/7
• No pet detection
• New in late 2026, so there are few long-term owner reports
• microSD card sold separately (it has no built-in storage)

Installation and compatibility notes

You can mount the solar panel on the camera or detach it and place it in the sun. The E50 works with Alexa and Google Assistant on its own. A HomeBase S380 adds face recognition, tracking across cameras and hard drive storage, and eufy lists Apple Home support with that hub.

Price: ~$230

eufy Floodlight Camera E340 — Best Floodlight Camera

The Floodlight Camera E340 replaces an outdoor light with a 2,000-lumen floodlight and two cameras. A 3K wide lens covers the area and a 2K telephoto lens on a pan-tilt head follows people and cars.

Best for: A driveway, a garage or a back door that needs light and a camera.

What stands out in real use

Together, the two lenses and the pan-tilt head cover 360° around the light, and you can set auto-patrol schedules so it sweeps the area on its own. The floodlight’s brightness is adjustable, and it can stay on as ambient lighting. Because it’s hardwired, it records 24/7 to a microSD card or a HomeBase S380, and dual-band Wi-Fi 6 keeps the connection stable.

Key specs

• 3K wide lens (130°) and 2K telephoto lens, 8x hybrid zoom
• 360° pan and 120° tilt, auto-tracking
• 2,000-lumen adjustable floodlight, 95 dB siren
• 24/7 recording, microSD up to 128 GB or HomeBase S380
• Dual-band Wi-Fi 6 (2.4 and 5 GHz)
• IP65, hardwired 100-240V AC

Pros

• Bright floodlight and a tracking camera in one
• Records 24/7
• Dual-band Wi-Fi 6
• Covers a full circle around the light

Cons

• Video drops to 2K while tracking
• Needs hardwiring into a junction box
• No support for HomeKit or the Google Home app
• microSD card sold separately

Installation and compatibility notes

It replaces an existing outdoor light on a standard junction box, and the circuit shouldn’t have a dimmer or a timer on it. If you aren’t comfortable with mains wiring, hire an electrician. It works with Alexa, and you can view it on Google Assistant smart displays. For other brands, see our best floodlight cameras.

Price: ~$220

eufy 4G LTE Cam S330 — Best Without Wi-Fi

The 4G LTE Cam S330 is for places Wi-Fi doesn’t reach: a cabin, a barn, a construction site or a gate at the end of a long driveway. It connects over 4G with the included SIM card and switches between 4G and Wi-Fi when one drops.

Best for: Remote property with no Wi-Fi.

What stands out in real use

The included EIOTCLUB SIM card works on AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon and connects to whichever has the strongest signal, or you can use your own data-only SIM. The camera records 4K, pans and tilts to follow people and cars, and has a 100-lumen spotlight for color video at night. A 9,400 mAh battery and a solar panel keep it running, and a 32 GB microSD card comes in the box.

Key specs

• 4K video, pan and tilt, auto-tracking
• 4G LTE and 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, automatic switching
• SIM card included (AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon)
• 9,400 mAh battery and solar panel
• 32 GB microSD card included

• Switches networks when one drops
• Solar panel included

Cons

• Needs a cellular data plan
• The solar panel needs its own mount
• No support for HomeKit
• Works with a HomeBase only on Wi-Fi

Installation and compatibility notes

Activate the SIM card’s data plan before you mount the camera, and check that there’s 4G coverage at the spot. Data use depends on how much motion the camera sees, so choose a plan with some room to spare. It works with Alexa and Google Assistant. For other 4G cameras, see our best cellular security cameras.

Price: ~$250

eufy Video Doorbell E340 — Best Video Doorbell

The Video Doorbell E340 has two cameras: one looks straight ahead at visitors, head to toe, and one looks down at packages on the doorstep. It saves video to 8 GB of built-in storage and works on battery or doorbell wiring.

Best for: A front door where packages get delivered.

What stands out in real use

The downward camera means you see a package that the front camera would miss, and the doorbell sends a separate alert for packages. Face recognition tells you when someone you know is at the door. The battery clips out to charge, or you can wire the doorbell to your existing doorbell wiring so the battery stays topped up.

Key specs

• Two 2K cameras (front and downward package camera)
• 8 GB built-in storage
• Person and package detection, face recognition
• Quick-release battery or 16-24V doorbell wiring
• Color night vision up to 16 ft

Price: ~$150

Eufy Camera Models Explained

eufy names its cameras by line, and the line tells you most of what you need to know.

SoloCam. Standalone battery cameras with solar charging. They don’t need a HomeBase, and most save video to built-in storage or a microSD card. The E42 and E50 pan and tilt.

eufyCam. eufy’s flagship battery cameras. Older eufyCams (like the S3 Pro and S330) need a HomeBase, while the eufyCam S4 also works on its own.

Indoor Cam. Plug-in indoor cameras. The E30 is 4K, and the Indoor Cam S350 adds a second, telephoto lens for about $140.

Wired Cam and C-series. Low-cost plug-in and battery cameras, such as the C31 and C35.

Floodlight and Wall Light Cams. Cameras built into an outdoor light. The Floodlight Camera E340 is hardwired, and the Wall Light Cam S4 is a solar version.

4G LTE Cam. Cellular cameras that use a SIM card instead of Wi-Fi.

Video doorbells. The E340 and the cheaper C31 doorbell run on battery or wiring. The Video Doorbell S4 ($299.99) is eufy’s newest model.

How to Choose a Eufy Camera

Power decides 24/7 recording. Battery cameras record motion events. Plug-in and hardwired cameras (the C31, E30 and Floodlight E340) can record around the clock. If you want 24/7, choose a wired model or run a cable to a camera that supports it, like the E42 or S4.

HomeBase or not. You don’t need a HomeBase for most eufy cameras. Buy a HomeBase S380 (about $200) if you want face recognition, tracking across several cameras or a hard drive for all your video.

Storage. Built-in storage is the simplest option, and a microSD card is the next. eufy’s Cloud Backup is optional, from $3.99 a month for one camera.

Smart home. Every camera here works with Alexa and Google Assistant. For Apple Home, choose the S3 Pro or the E30, and expect 1080p video in the Home app. No eufy camera supports Matter.

Wi-Fi. Most eufy cameras connect to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi only. The SoloCam E50 and Floodlight E340 also work on 5 GHz.

New this fall. eufy launched the Video Doorbell S4 ($299.99, with Apple Home listed through a HomeBase S380) and the eufyCam E52 ($269.99) in fall 2026. There are no in-depth reviews of either yet, so we haven’t ranked them.

Sale prices. The prices in this guide are eufy’s regular prices on Amazon. eufy cameras go on sale often, especially around Black Friday, so check the current price.

---

Conclusion

The eufy SoloCam E42 is the best eufy camera for most homes: 4K, pan and tilt, solar charging and built-in storage for about $180. The Wired Cam C31 is the budget option, and the Indoor Cam E30 is the best choice inside. iPhone users should choose the eufyCam S3 Pro kit for outdoors. The eufyCam S4 and SoloCam E50 follow and zoom in on people, the Floodlight Camera E340 lights up a driveway, the 4G LTE Cam S330 works without Wi-Fi, and the Video Doorbell E340 watches your packages.
