If you just want a video doorbell with 2 way audio it's still a good option. But I specifically want to be able to record data as a deterrent.
I'm seeing £74.99 now.
No I don’t often check how many hours or days ago it was posted! But likewise you should have checked to see if it had expired
You would see them stealing it if motion detection is on. This is pinged directly to your phone and you would be able to see it in relative real time. They would need a small pin to release it from its cage so like anything fairly easy to steal but pointless really. Not sure why anyone would want to steal them as value is minimal and you run the risk of having your face plastered all over social media with the words “Thieving scumbag”
Not difficult to steal, but images are stored on the indoor chime unit (SD Card).
Easy to reset.
Easy to wipe any data with a reset.
Stealing the doorbell also wipes any data.
Needs a fundamental redesign.
But - it’s a doorbell. If you want home security then there are better solutions.
Lol, did you check the time when this was posted ? Of course it won't always stay at £74.99 and has now gone back up now.
It's not expired though, at least not now
Thanks for that. I think for me it's more, unlike Ring, it would cost me again to buy the unit even if I had evidence of the theft it's unlikely anything would be done.
I just don't want to spend twice where I can avoid it.
Thanks

Yes, just need a paper clip
Cheers for the post
That's given me a good laugh, what an insane design decision.
Yes, you can create a new profile or edit one of the preexisting ones to do that.

No it isn’t now. It had been expired because the price had changed.
Bless you it’s ok buddy.
And any subscription fees? Plus same question as well is easy to be stolen ? (edited)
Are you sure that wasn't the 2K version ?
Was going to bite until I saw this. I don't even want a doorbell, I just want a subtle camera with the same kind of FOV that can store data on my nas. Not sure what to go for.
No
The support team says I have a defective unit but I'm a little skeptical as this is now the second one they have sent out - I must say the support team have been good even though the product has not been so good. Lets see what the third is like, fingers crossed!
This one has a micro SD card. I thought that the only models that were immune to the issue were the micro SD card models?
From what I could tell their whole range was impacted by this 'feature', as their technology was built with encryption to work in a certain way, and by resetting a camera the encryption key is lost. That means it can't properly be fixed without a full overhaul of the encryption portion of the software (I'm guessing)..
.. but don't remember reading about micro sd specifically. If you can find any info showing otherwise would be useful to see.
Thanks for pointing this out. Have been looking at doorbell/security camera options and Eufy was rising to the top until you pointed this out. Incredible really, nothing done about it and no worthwhile response since Jan 2021. Appalling.
It’s considered a features due to Chinese privacy laws.
