Are eufy outdoor cameras any good especially in the dark?

I don't have much of an issue with the camera quality of my eufycam 2C camera but they are hugely unreliable as a system. Can often take ages to open and start playing and sometimes they don't at all. They often alert me to things outside the area I have asked for but then will sometimes refuse to pick up things really close to the house. Overall quite a frustrating experience over the 2 years I've had then

Heres screen shots from my playback page at night, images will be better if you actually download the file and the people in the image aren't blurry in actual footage when moving or paused

I have recently installed a ring floodlight and it's fantastic

Going to go against the grain here and say that Eufy and Ring cams are what I would regard as consumer Mickey Mouse cams!

If night video quality is a must then check their specs/performance/capabilities of night time captures. Important thing is don’t be impressed by stills with little or no night time movement but check out how they perform at night with a person moving around.

All my cams are Dahua which I’ve chosen specifically for their night time performance, none are the greatest of latest megapixels, max on mine is 4Mp but when dialled in they perform quite well at night.

Having said all the above about still images here is a pic from one of my 4Mp cams that cover my driveway from the mobile app, quality is better if I do the same capture from the PC that runs the NVR software.
