Eufy Security 1080P Battery Video Doorbell Kit, C210

Verdict

This Eufy wired video doorbell delivers excellent 2K-looking video, surprisingly wide fisheye coverage, and strong audio in a package that is still relatively easy to install. The app walks you through setup, the included chime and multi-phone support work smoothly, and motion-triggered clips reliably capture everyday activity. It is an especially good fit if you are comfortable with basic wiring and want a solid, subscription-free front door upgrade.

    Sharing access is simple, with additional phones able to view the camera feed just by installing the app, granting permissions, and joining the existing home setup.
  • Ongoing ownership costs ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 1 review 5.0
    Local microSD storage and on-device AI features let the doorbell run with no ongoing monthly fees, though an optional paid cloud plan is available for owners who prefer additional subscription-based backup.
  • Privacy ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 1 review 5.0
    Because recordings are stored on a local base station rather than a third-party cloud by default, many owners see this doorbell as a more private option that keeps video from being routinely uploaded to remote servers they may not fully trust.

  • Field of view & framing ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 3 reviews 4.8
  • Base / Hub integration ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 2 reviews 4.8
    The doorbell connects through an indoor base station that also serves as local storage, can be shared with other Eufy cameras and devices, and can double as an indoor chime, helping keep the system centralized and reducing the number of separate hubs needed.
  • Motion detection performance ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 2 reviews 4.8
    On-device human detection starts clips quickly as people enter the frame, avoids false alerts during testing when limited to human-only mode, and works smoothly with notification delivery for motion events.

  • Security ecosystem integration ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 2 reviews 4.8
    When paired with other Eufy gear like cameras, door locks, alarms, security lights, and window shatter sensors, the doorbell slots into a single app controlled security ecosystem so owners can monitor entrances, video, and access from one place, trigger sirens, and report that the system works smoothly together.
  • Subscription ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 2 reviews 4.8
    Eufy offers an optional cloud storage subscription for this doorbell, but it remains fully functional without it thanks to local recording, and many buyers highlight the lack of required monthly fees as a key reason for choosing it.
  • Storage ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 3 reviews 4.7
    Video clips are stored locally on an encrypted microSD card inside an indoor chime or base station that acts as a small hard drive, keeping footage safe even if the outdoor doorbell unit is stolen and avoiding reliance on untrusted third-party clouds, while Eufy also offers optional cloud storage for owners who want a subscription backup.
  • Chime ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 5 reviews 4.6
    The system supports both the included wireless or base chime, which pairs easily and offers adjustable volume and multiple ringtones, and configurations that let a wired transformer drive an existing mechanical chime so owners can keep their familiar doorbell sound, and some users note that both can ring at once but settings make it easy to turn one off if that feels like too much.

    The doorbell integrates with both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing voice commands such as showing the live view on Echo Show or Google Nest Hub displays, and streaming in these demos starts reliably.

  • Battery & Charging ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 3 reviews 4.2
  • Notifications ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 3 reviews 4.2
    Doorbell press notifications arrive very quickly, often nearly instant over LTE, and motion alerts can include helpful thumbnail snapshots that link to buffered clips or live view, but using thumbnail mode can add several seconds of delay compared with the faster 'most efficient' setting, so motion alerts may feel a bit slower than ideal for some owners.
  • Audio ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 4 reviews 4.0
    Two way audio is generally clear and responsive for front door conversations with only a short delay when speaking over a cellular connection, but recordings capture only the doorbell side of the conversation and some owners note they need to wait until the ringing stops before talk audio is easy to hear.
