Eufy has upgraded their Wireless solar security cameras we've now got the eufycam S 330. so it's
got a 4K resolution now which is capturing just so much detail compared to the previous models
that had 2K you can zoom in a lot to the live preview and even the footage and just see far
more in terms of detail there which is really good so we have the features that we've seen
in the previous models that we've got AI human detection so they've got their bionic AI they call
it now that can detect human shapes you even got a face recognition as well you can set that up with
family members so it's got two-way communication because there is an inbuilt speaker there's a
microphone it's got LED flash with it it's got an app that is fully featured you get of course
all those alerts coming through to your mobile phone and because it does have the solar panel
on it it can go and go and go but even if you do have it in the shade the battery is good for up
to 365 days and if you do of course have it in the sun then it's going to be topping itself up so
you don't have to worry about that at all the base station here it's got 16 gigabytes of storage it's
encrypted local storage that is free of charge and you can add a one terabyte or two terabyte
hard drive to it to increase that capacity so this is what we get inside our box you can see the two
4K cameras there so this is the s330s otherwise known as the UV cam 3s and protector over the lens
there so it's not going to get damaged in transit and I'll look at those in detail shortly this is
the home base so they are going to sync up with that and then just under here you will find we
do have our mounts so we've got two mounts there in the box and just under this there's a little
bit of paperwork here so instructions quick start guide and a couple of stickers there there are two
of them there 24 7 monitoring by yuffie security there's the guide and here we have our plugs here
so they've got different plugs there to UK one we have a EU one there and here is the power supply
there for the home base ethernet cable type c to type a cable that's for charging the cameras
themselves then they do include two lots of screws there for mounting it and we do have this for the
hard drive some hard drive screws there and a little tool and finally these some positioning
cards they're actually little stickers so what you do is stick that on the wall and there's
the cutouts there for where you need to drill the holes for the two screws this is the home station
so it's running off a 2.4 gigahertz band otherwise known as Wi-Fi in so not the Wi-Fi AC standard but
why they do use Wi-Fi int is normally the range is a lot better that's why they do it so here we
have at the top a little cover now it's got a magnet that keeps it on you simply press down
here pops up and that will then give us access to where we can install the 2.5 inch hard drive
which is really good to see so it's got a one simple little screw here you just undo that and
then it is going to slide right out as you can see that just pops out you install the hard drive in
there now you can install really large capacity so you're going to have local storage the files when
they're saved on this drive they are encrypted so you don't need to worry about anyone being
able to access them later on if someone was to imagine steal this somehow if they got into your
house hopefully not so the back of it here we've got the button there to sync it with the cameras
themselves of course turn off the alarm if that is triggered USB 3 Port USB 2 Lan Port power in
and at the front of it here we do have a status LED now the build quality of this is good and it
is a nice small compact size it's not too large so it has a nice small compact size this s330 so you
see here at the back we do have the mounting point there there's the sync button to sync it up with
the home base and just under this weatherproof cap you will find a type c Port now so they've moved
away from micro USB thankfully gone over to type Z more modern and everything should now be type c
anyway to start with and the Plastics I've used very good high quality we do have a solar panel
on the top now it is recommended that you charge these up first fully so you've got 100 battery now
the battery will last for they claim a whole year even if you don't have any solar or sun should I
say to top it up there with the solar power now I do have their previous model a 2K camera and
I've never had an issue I get a lot of sun here and it's always at 100 so if it is getting a few
hours of sunlight per day that should be enough just to keep topping it up there and you never
have to worry about the battery with it again so the camera is a 4k camera that we have with
this model now so that's an upgrade over previous generations passive infrared is right here we do
have a status LED two powerful LEDs at the top so it does have a color night vision mode and we also
can have of course that black and white infrared night vision mode 2 as well with these microphone
there is a loudspeaker at the bottom so we can have two-way conversations and of course this
whole thing is weatherproof it's designed to be rained on it's designed to be sitting out in the
sun all day topping up that battery this is our app it is called yuffie security now you can get
it on iOS for Apple devices or Android which I'm currently running at the moment so it does have
a preview snapshot kit of all your different cameras so I've got quite a few of them as you
can see all around my house here now I did have a Amazon delivery and you can see it's recorded a
short clip there because it does have that bionic mind AI recognition so this is facial recognition
and it will even list familiar faces you can scan your own face and family members it'll come up so
you know if for example someone's arrived your daughter your father whatever it's going to tell
you that which is Handy but not only does facial recognition it's also human shape recognition so
that can then distinguish the difference between moving leaves and an actual person you want to
record a clip of so under events you're going to see it all in here and you can also of course log
into the cameras which I'll do now I'll just jump into this camera decide one number two 2 the live
preview is very quick but it's going to depend on your internet connection I've noticed that
if I'm out on 4G and it's a bit patchy it can take a while sometimes to log in because of the
network so it's all going to be really dependent on that so you can record a clip you can listen
you can take a snapshot you can also turn on the alarm night mode and the LED light there
we have settings so a lot of settings for these cameras anti-theft detection you can turn that
on Spotlight settings this is a big one here motion detection now there's a lot of options
in here some new ones as well which are currently beta vehicle detection hit detection if you want
to see or record Clips or for example your cat your dog you can test it out but it could be a
little hit and miss and you've got other monitors on there you've got human recognition you could
even disable that if you didn't want you've got motion detection just to turn it off completely
if you wanted to you can adjust the sensitivity activity zones as well imagine you've got a tree
or something that's always moving you don't want it to never actually detect that part then you
set up the activity Zone that you want which is good so we have here power management now you can
get it to run off the solar panel of course and once the sun goes down it works then by using the
battery pack you can see the events the days it's been working here you can set up the surveillance
I've got it on optimal so it's recording longer Clips up to 60 seconds or custom you can set that
however you want yourself you see there's a lot of other options in here General we've got firmware
updates audio settings notification settings you name it it is pretty much there with this
application then lastly with the app here we do have a option to change them into different modes
so imagine you're about to go away for the weekend as soon as you get out of your house out of the
range of these cameras you can then change them from being home when you're home to set them to
the away mode and what that will do is trigger the alarms if it sees anyone around your house it will
send you a notification as well and that's great to see if you do have any Intruders and hopefully
scare them away and advise you now the setup is quite easy you just need to plug it in it will
guide you through it with the application you need to sync up the two cameras now to get past the
issue of not having a wireless connection for this because it needs to be wired what I do is I use
what is called a power line and this is plugged in so it's basically creating there a lan Network and
we can use that to then plug in the home base now I've got everything I need here the two cameras
mounting screws the melts and the positioning card to install the two cameras and the job supervisor
like always has showed up just in time for my installation here to make sure I'm doing the
job right so this is a perfect location to install it right up here so this is my old camera this one
is the 2K camera solar and it has never needed me to charge the battery up once because it's always
in the sun it's always at 100 battery just goes and goes and goes never had any problems either
with connection it's always been stable and it's been really reliable this one so that's
an ideal perfect location to mount these cameras is somewhere that's in the Sun but of course it
has to be within the range of the network so you don't have any connectivity issues so my ideal
location is here this is actually the test spot that I test out these cameras security cameras
with so I'm just going to mount it here on the wall but it's perfect because it will actually be
in the Sun for quite a few hours enough to top up that battery and you're basically looking at the
view that it's going to get from around about here down the side of the house so you can use the live
preview with the application with those cameras to find out where is the ideal spot for your camera
now to drill the hole so what I've got is this sticker there of course to position
those holes perfectly for the mount then screw the mountain place then Mount our camera taking
into account this sunlight so hopefully that panel gets the maximum amount of sun just to
keep topping up that battery but even if it doesn't it should last for a year 365 days
the uficam 3 does have a built-in alarm so if it detects humans people in front of it
you can set it so it will sound the alarm and here's a sample of just how loud it is
but note for headphone users I have turned this right down so you're not going to be deafened
by just how loud it is but it's actually way louder than this sample I'm giving you now
I've exposed samples now so this is what you can expect quality wise out of the UV cam 3 here so
it is 4K a lot sharper than what we normally do because I did 2K or even just 10 details and of
course what you're listening to is the built-in microphone there is a loudspeaker you can have
two-way conversations to whoever is on the underside with the application that I showed you
from just before this is the night vision mode Now using just the infrared so black and white it does
look very clear and you can see a lot of detail let's take a look at the color night mode now
I do have the LED lights on as well too with this color vision mode you can see it doesn't look bad
at all the nighttime footage captures a lot again just like the infrared style so you can pick and
choose through the app if you want to use the infrared black and white or the color vision like
now to recap here that it is very easy to set up this yuffie cam 3 the s330 you can
put it basically anywhere you want but it must be within wireless range of the home
base and then if you can if possible place it somewhere in the Sun so you'd never have
to charge it again because it'll just keep topping itself off if it gets enough hours
now the battery life on this if you don't have a huge amount of events per day we'll go for up to
365 days that's great it's got a weatherproof design to it so no problem this being in the
rain out in the sun of course that's what it's designed to do it's an outdoor wireless security
camera the footage now with 4K just looks so much better especially when you zoom into the
live preview you can see so much more whereas with other cameras that I do have and even
ufi Securities 2K cameras or the 1080p ones it looks washed out a little bit blurry you can't
see that much because you're not going to get the same definition the details that you can
with ultra high definition 4K which is really good so there we go that is the yuffie cam 3 or
the s330 thank you so much for watching this video is Hands-On of it and I'll see you in the next one
