Pros
Quality (1)
New model is a vast improvement
We have 6 cameras set up around the outside of the house and one stopped working. We replaced it with this newer model and the quality is awesome. We'll be replacing all the rest over time as they stop working.

Fantastic Camera-zero Hassle, Maximum clerity
I recently added the Eufy eufyCam S3 Pro to my home security setup, and I’m genuinely impressed. This camera is a game-changer. The built-in solar panel means I never have to worry about charging it—seriously, it just works. Installation was a breeze; I had it up and running in minutes with no fuss. The video quality is stunning, both day and night. The 4K resolution and color night vision give me crystal-clear views of my property, and the smart motion detection is incredibly accurate. It’s reassuring to know I’m covered without needing a subscription or dealing with constant battery checks.

Awesome upgrade
This is definitely worth the upgrade. With all the new features compared to previous models, this one surely shines. Would work best with HB3.

At a glance
The eufy Eufycam S3 Pro Add-on Camera is a premium outdoor security camera for households already using a compatible eufy setup. It suits buyers who want sharp 4K footage, strong low-light colour video, and low-maintenance solar charging. Its biggest limitation is that it requires HomeBase 3, so it is not a standalone camera for first-time buyers.
What it’s great for
- Outdoor home security
- Expanding an existing eufy system
- Driveway monitoring
- Front and backyard surveillance
- Low-maintenance wireless security
Where it works best
- Detached homes
- Townhouses
- Front entrances
- Driveways
- Backyards
- Side access areas
Who it’s for
- Existing eufy users
- Homeowners
- Families
- Smart home users
- Buyers wanting local storage security
Things to consider
This is an add-on camera only and needs the eufy HomeBase 3 to operate, making it less suitable than standalone alternatives for new users starting from scratch.
Smart home integration score
8/10 - Works with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and Apple HomeKit, with best functionality inside the eufy ecosystem.
Night vision performance
9/10 - Strong low-light performance with colour night vision through MaxColor Vision, well suited to darker outdoor areas.
Outdoor weather suitability
8/10 - Designed for outdoor installation with solar-assisted battery operation for year-round placement.
Pet & package monitoring fit
Good for monitoring entryways, parcels, and movement around the home, though it is better tuned for human detection than specialist pet tracking.
Installation ease
8/10 - Wireless design and app-based setup make installation straightforward, but HomeBase 3 is required before use.
Key benefits
- 4K Ultra HD recording: Captures highly detailed footage that makes it easier to identify people and activity around your property.
- MaxColor Vision: Delivers colour video in ultra-low light without relying on a spotlight in many situations.
- Built-in solar panel: Helps maintain charge through regular daylight exposure for lower-maintenance outdoor use.
- 13,000 mAh rechargeable battery: Supports long-running wireless operation between manual recharges.
- Dual radar and PIR detection: Helps reduce false alerts by better confirming human movement before notifying you.
- Outdoor-ready design: Suits external placement around entrances, driveways, and yard areas.
- Local storage support: Includes 16 GB internal storage and supports expansion up to 16 TB for flexible recording capacity.
- Smart assistant compatibility: Works with Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and Apple HomeKit for easier voice and app-based control.
Q: Does this add-on camera work without a HomeBase 3?
A: No. The eufyCam S3 Pro Add-on Camera only operates with HomeBase 3, model S380. It is meant to expand an existing eufy system, so it is not a standalone camera for direct app-only use.
Q: Will it work with an older eufy HomeBase system?
A: The eufyCam S3 Pro Add-on Camera is designed for HomeBase 3, model S380. Older HomeBase models are not listed for this camera, so buyers with an earlier eufy setup should treat HomeBase 3 as the required platform.
Q: Can Apple HomeKit use this camera in full 4K?
A: No. The eufyCam S3 Pro Add-on Camera works with Apple HomeKit, but full 4K recording is available only within the eufy system. If HomeKit is your main platform, expect reduced resolution compared with native eufy use.
Q: Does the solar panel replace manual charging completely?
A: Not completely. The built-in solar panel and 13000mAh battery are designed for year-round use with less manual recharging, but charging performance still depends on where the camera is mounted and how much daylight it gets.
Q: How does this camera reduce false motion alerts?
A: The eufyCam S3 Pro Add-on Camera uses dual radar and a passive infrared sensor to confirm human movement before sending alerts. That setup is designed to cut down notifications from non-human motion compared with simpler detection.
Q: Can it record colour video without using a spotlight?
A: Yes. The eufyCam S3 Pro Add-on Camera uses MaxColor Vision for colour footage in ultra-low light without needing a spotlight. That makes it better suited to darker outdoor areas where added lighting is not wanted.
Q: How much footage can this camera store locally?
A: The eufyCam S3 Pro Add-on Camera has 16GB of internal storage and supports expansion to 16TB. Local storage gives recording flexibility without relying on cloud-only access, but longer retention needs added storage within the eufy system.
