Eufy Security Video Doorbell Dual Camera S330

Verdict

Eufy’s Video Doorbell Dual delivers excellent package monitoring, flexible local storage with no required subscription, and a versatile app, making it a strong pick for daytime delivery-focused homes. However, very weak night vision and noticeably slow notifications keep it from being the best choice if you need top-tier nighttime security or near-instant alerts.

Pros

  • Pre-roll buffer 1 review 5.0
  • Ongoing ownership costs 8 reviews 4.9
    Included local storage and no required subscription keep ongoing costs very low compared with many rivals that lock features behind monthly plans, making the system attractive for budget conscious owners who want predictable costs even as they tighten household spending.
  • Subscription 8 reviews 4.9
    Full functionality, including access to recorded events, works without a paid plan because clips are kept on the HomeBase, keeping monthly costs at zero, and reviewers repeatedly praise that you do not need any subscription to get the most out of the doorbell even though optional cloud storage can still be added as a backup.
  • Dual-camera design 8 reviews 4.8
    Dual front and downward cameras work together to capture visitors and doorstep packages, greatly reducing blind spots, and extended testing shows the lower lens reliably recognizes parcels while avoiding the fisheye distortion common on single-lens designs.
  • Peace of mind 1 review 4.8
  • Weather & temperature tolerance 2 reviews 4.8
    Hands on testing reports reliable operation in rainy conditions, and published specifications indicate the doorbell is engineered to withstand a wide span of outdoor temperatures suitable for most climates, including colder environments down to roughly minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit that exceed the ratings of several rival brands.
  • Field of view & framing 7 reviews 4.7
    The 160 degree main lens paired with the downward package camera covers visitors, the porch, and doorstep parcels with very few blind spots, and recent reviews highlight that Eufy avoids severe fisheye warping by offering two separate 4:3 feeds and an adjustable package lens to frame the delivery area precisely.
  • Complete kit in box 6 reviews 4.7
  • AI features 4 reviews 4.6
  • System completeness 4 reviews 4.6
  • Storage 8 reviews 4.6
    Built in local storage on the included HomeBase records motion and button events so you can review weeks or even months of clips without a subscription, and while power users may still prefer a higher capacity hub, typical doorbell use easily fits within the 16GB that Eufy estimates covers up to six months of short daily recordings.
  • Video resolution & detail 8 reviews 4.5
    Its 2K HDR video is generally sharp and colorful with good facial detail and fewer compression artifacts than many battery rivals, but some testing notes that clarity drops at longer distances and under harsh lighting, with downloaded clips occasionally looking softer or more pixelated than the live view, especially compared with expectations for a 2K sensor.
  • Delivery package monitoring 7 reviews 4.5
    Delivery Guard and the downward camera quickly flag when packages are dropped off or approached and show a visit timeline with clips, and recent reviews find the package alerts and automatic spoken warnings effective at tracking deliveries, with the lower lens reliably recognizing boxes while avoiding false alarms from non-package objects placed on the mat.
  • Object & person detection 5 reviews 4.5
    Object and person detection generally distinguishes well between people, packages, and other motion at the door, correctly tagging deliveries and visitors in most clips so that alerts carry clear context about what the camera is seeing.
  • Privacy 2 reviews 4.5
  • Recommendation for new buyers 1 review 4.5
  • App, software & firmware 8 reviews 4.5
    The Eufy Security app is intuitive, offering split or picture in picture dual streams, quick reply customization, motion and delivery guard controls, and familiar faces management, and reviewers find it clear and easy to navigate when reviewing events, setting activity zones, or switching security modes, while advanced users appreciate extra tuning like radar sensing and notification behavior options.
  • Reliability (general) 5 reviews 4.4
  • Build quality & durability 4 reviews 4.4
    Reviewers describe the plastic body as sturdy and well built, with the unit shrugging off accidental drops and continuing to work normally through rain and day to day outdoor exposure, and recent hands-on tests also find the mounting hardware resists forceful tugs from would-be thieves.
  • Chime 7 reviews 4.4
    Between the optional plug in chime modes of the HomeBase, smart speaker announcements, and support for many existing wired chimes when powered appropriately, most homes can get loud, reliable indoor ringing, and reviewers appreciate that the included base station doubles as a chime even though minor phone tone quirks can still appear until firmware is updated.
  • Power Options & Compatibility 7 reviews 4.3
    The doorbell can run either on its internal rechargeable battery or on existing doorbell wiring, and wired setups keep power stable while enabling many traditional chimes in the home so you are not limited to app alerts and the bundled base station.
  • Installation & Mounting 7 reviews 4.2
  • Notifications 7 reviews 4.2
    Notifications clearly label events such as people, packages, and familiar faces, and by default they link to full event clips that show the entire approach, but reviewers consistently note that these alerts often arrive several seconds after motion or button presses, making them better for reviewing what happened than for real-time intervention.
  • Motion-detection customization 5 reviews 4.2
  • Motion detection performance 8 reviews 4.2
    People and packages are generally detected accurately with quick alerts in everyday use, though owners on busy streets report that passersby can still trigger frequent notifications even after lowering sensitivity, and additional hands-on testing notes that some motion at night is not picked up until a person is relatively close to the camera.
  • Face recognition 6 reviews 4.1
    Facial recognition lets the system learn frequent visitors you label in the app, so it can identify family, caregivers, and other familiar faces at the door instead of just reporting generic motion, and reviewers note that named alerts reliably show when kids get home or a dog walker arrives without producing false matches.
  • Price & value 7 reviews 4.0
    Although priced higher than some basic, subscription dependent rivals, the combination of dual cameras, local storage, rich smart features, and no required monthly fees leads reviewers to describe overall value as competitive over the long term, even if weaker night vision and notification lag keep it from being a flawless premium pick.
  • Design aesthetics 3 reviews 4.0
  • Audio 5 reviews 3.9
  • Base / Hub integration 4 reviews 3.9
    The doorbell pairs with the included HomeBase hub, which acts as both a chime and local storage, though initial setup requires wiring the hub to the router via ethernet and completing a guided configuration process in the app.
  • Battery & Charging 5 reviews 3.7
  • Smart-home integration (Alexa, Google, Siri, HomeKit, Matter, Thread) 6 reviews 3.5
    The doorbell works with Alexa and Google Assistant voice commands and routines and can stream to compatible smart displays or TVs, but it still lacks native HomeKit or IFTTT integrations, a gap that some reviewers highlight as a drawback for Apple centric or advanced smart home setups.
  • Theft & Tamper 2 reviews 3.5
    Attempts to yank the doorbell off its mount show that the bracket and latch design resist quick grab-and-go theft, giving the unit better tamper resistance than many slimline competitors that can be popped off more easily.

Cons

  • lag) 6 reviews 3.1
    Live view and two way audio typically connect within a few seconds and alerts can arrive quickly, but multiple tests now report enough delay from motion or button press to app notification that conversations and interventions can feel out of sync, with package events sometimes taking several seconds to appear despite attempts to optimize settings.
  • Size & form factor 3 reviews 2.7
  • Low-light & Night vision 3 reviews 2.5
    Night vision delivers a clear image only at close range, with faces and test charts quickly fading beyond roughly 10 feet, leading some reviewers to describe its low-light performance as among the weakest they have seen even though subjects standing very near the door remain readable.
  • Conversation recording completeness 1 review 2.0
