eufy Security Dual Camera Doorbell

Quick verdict

The dual-camera design is genuinely clever — the downward lens catches packages that other doorbells miss entirely. Local storage on the HomeBase is a plus. But eufy's 2022 privacy controversy means you should take their local-only claims with a grain of salt. RTSP support is hit-or-miss depending on firmware.

Standout: Dual cameras with a downward-facing lens specifically designed to detect packages at your doorstep.

Privacy and local-control notes

eufy stores footage locally on the HomeBase hub. However, eufy faced controversy in 2022 over unencrypted cloud thumbnail uploads despite marketing as local-only. RTSP support varies by firmware version.

Home Assistant support: supported · integration path: eufy Security (cloud/RTSP varies).
