Eufy Security has introduced the EufyCam S3 Pro, marking a significant advancement in the company’s smart home security lineup. The camera features MaxColor Vision technology that delivers detailed color images in low-light conditions, building upon previous innovations in AI-powered security monitoring.
The emphasis on local storage through the HomeBase 3 hub addresses previous controversies around data handling, where Eufy’s parent company Anker faced criticism over undisclosed cloud storage practices. The company has implemented stronger privacy protections following class action lawsuits related to its handling of biometric data.
While the camera offers impressive capabilities, it comes with a premium price tag of $220 per unit. The resolution limitation to 1080p when used with Apple HomeKit reflects ongoing challenges in balancing high-end features with smart home platform compatibility, though it maintains compatibility with other smart home platforms.
