Eufy Indoor Cam 2K
₱3,499
As its name implies, this powerful little camera captures video at 2K resolution. It also comes packed with helpful features like two-way audio, continuous recording, crying detection, and a motion detector that you can configure to detect human and/or
animal movement while ignoring all other movements. It also has a unique Pet Command tool that plays a pre-recorded command when a pet is detected. For example, you can have the camera say, “get off,” to a particular zone when it
spots your dog in that area.
Eufy Video Doorbell (Wireless)
₱11,099
This wireless device can be mounted onto any outdoor surface, and it will connect to your Internet with the help of a hub that connects to your router. It offers crystal-clear images, intelligent human detection, alert notifications, and two-way audio.
That means you can converse with individuals who go up to the doorbell or play preset responses like “please leave the package at the gate” even when you’re not at home. All you need is your smartphone! It also has 16GB of onboard
storage, which can store over two weeks of footage, and a rechargeable battery that can last up to six months.
Eufy Smart Lock Touch and WiFi
₱13,299
This weatherproof smart lock can last up to a year on a single charge and comes with premium features that will secure your front door and let you control the lock 24/7 using your smartphone. Unlock your door multiple ways, either through biometrics,
the Eufy mobile app, keypad, or traditional key. It also has an auto-lock feature where the built-in sensor can detect when the door is closed and automatically locks the door behind the user.
Eufy Outdoor Cam 2C
₱14,499
These compact cameras can monitor all activity with a 135-degree field of view and can be configured to detect humans only (helpful if you have stray animals in your area). If they detect a person, the cameras will record a short video and alert you.
In addition, if you’ve set up the alarm system, sirens will go off if the person intrudes your home.
The Eufy Outdoor Cam 2C also has two-way audio, so you can use it to record sounds or speak to people in real time via your smartphone. Its battery is rechargeable and can last up to 180 days (about six months), and you can store about three months' worth
of footage in its local storage.
