eufy Security S380 HomeBase (HomeBase 3),eufy Edge Security Center, Local Expandable Storage up to 16TB, Product Compatibility, Advanced Encryption, No Monthly Fee

Works fine when you understand it transmits it's own 2.4ghz WiFi - which will not be boosted by a range extender, and Eufy don't do an extender for their own 2.4ghz channel. So it needs to be placed centrally, to reach all your cameras. Use a WiFi analyser app to track signal strength, where it comes up as an unlabeled signal. It also connects to my home WiFi for using the Eufy app for setup and viewing captures. On my setup, the cameras report a weak signal when nothing's going on, but are boosted to a strong signal when active, which seems to work ok. Adding a 1Tb SSD for storage was easy.

I recently upgraded my home security system to the Eufy Security S380 HomeBase 3, and I must say it has exceeded my expectations in every way. The setup process was a breeze, making it an absolute pleasure to enhance the security of my home. One of the standout features of the HomeBase 3 is its user-friendly setup. The step-by-step instructions provided in the manual were clear and concise, ensuring a hassle-free installation process. Within no time, I had the system up and running, ready to take my home security to the next level. What sets the HomeBase 3 apart is its advanced technology and improved performance compared to its predecessor. The upgraded features provide a more robust and efficient security solution. The system seamlessly integrates with my existing Eufy devices, creating a unified and comprehensive security network for my home. The enhanced processing power and improved connectivity of the HomeBase 3 translate to faster response times and more reliable monitoring. I can now enjoy real-time updates and alerts, giving me peace of mind knowing that my home is under constant surveillance. Upgrading from the HomeBase 2 to the HomeBase 3 was a wise decision. The improvements are noticeable, and the system has definitely taken my home security to new heights. The upgraded technology not only ensures a more secure environment but also adds a layer of convenience to my daily life. The Eufy Security S380 HomeBase 3 is a testament to Eufy's commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction. If you're considering upgrading your home security system, I highly recommend making the leap to the HomeBase 3. It's a worthwhile investment that delivers on its promises, providing a seamless and effective solution to safeguard your home

The HomeBase 3 has been a huge improvement for my Eufy setup. Installation was quick, the app picked it up straight away, and all my cameras connected without any issues. The upgraded AI is a real step up, with much better detection accuracy and faster alerts compared to the older models. I added my own SSD inside which means I never have to worry about storage. The system runs smoothly, recordings save instantly, and everything stays local which is a big bonus. The unit itself is quiet, well built, and has a clean modern design that fits nicely on a shelf. If you already use Eufy devices this upgrade is absolutely worth it, the performance boost and smarter detection make a big difference day to day.

It's great and adds face recognition (works 40% of the time in my experience on the last month or so), but I was expecting a gain in speed to access the footage too and it doesn't. My mistake. It's good for the storage boost but not much more than that.

It is excellent and easy to set up. I did not get a separate hard drive for it yet but may do. Great think is that it is a standard sata drive that fits it if you want more storage.

Upgraded from Homebase 2 as needed to also increase range due to annoying deadspot for one camera placement. So easy to move cameras to the new HB3, some nice new features that are nice to have rather than must have compared to Homebase 2 ie facial recognition. Have a variety of devices all attached with no problem. Geofencing works well and Alexa routines also seem to be working fine.

I bought this after I broke my chime for the bell. I am pleased I did it was easy to set up and easy to add my video doorbell and cameras to it. Very pleased with purchase.

My Homebase 2-based security setup as been reliable, stable and useful for 3 years. I purchased most of my system in 2021. Thinking I could "upgrade" I purchased a Homebase 3. My system includes 3 x eufyCam 2 Pro wireless cameras, the wireless single-cam doorbell, the wired floodlight and some door sensors. Eufy has not designed and does not offer you an upgrade path from Homebase 2 > 3. If you are interested and motivated, you can attempt to MIGRATE your current devices... which for me didn't work. I returned the Homebase 3 after giving up. Here's some information that might be helpful for you. 1) Every device has to be manually added to the Homebase 3. When you do this, they cease to be connected to your Homebase 2, so 'downgrading' to your old system means re-adding any devices that successfully added to the HB3. 2) None of the clips or data on your Homebase2 will be transferred to your Homebase 3. 3) My door sensors were close enough that they were added without much fuss. 4) My wireless doorbell finally connected to the Homebase 3 after about 8 attempts. 5) Not one of my eufyCam 2 Pro wireless cameras would connect. To connect to a base they listen for an audio chime and somehow this gets them setup. The HB3 chime was audible to my dog, but almost too high and quiet for me to hear. The HB2 pumps out an audible chime and everything works. This also means every camera has to be near the Homebase to get set up, which is OK for me but possibly a challenge for people who've put their cameras somewhere safe/inaccessible. 6) I have a powered eufy floodlight installed up on the house and I believe I would have had to stand on a ladder holding the Homebase 3 to connect. 7) Oh, and an interior camera's inner plastics crumbled when I attempted to take it down from the ceiling where I had it mounted. (It is now useless can I have my £80 back Eufy) Don't expect any support from Eufy. This is a trial by fire DIY project that will ruin your weekend. The best choice is probably to buy a HB3 and all new cameras + accessories. Or, like me, wait for a future HB4 and replace _everything_ you have today. Hopefully by then there might be better and more upgradeable eufy competitors to consider...
