Avoid Eufy brand. Google their brand and copy/storing your videos on overseas (China) servers.

Here's a youtube video of the S220 in the deal.

That being said; Eufy tends to be the best-in-class image quality in its price point and product category (Wifi camera). Just temper your expectations by looking at reviews and understanding what a normal "1080p" or "2K" wifi camera is. Its no where near the quality of your 6-year-old flagship android phone recording at 2K 30. Its more like your PC webcam or laptop webcam.
And eufy has the best webcam. Best of the poor image quality cameras.
Its just tough to recommend them given their recent security (read: poor design) issues. So if you care about the security of your footage (or specifically, thumbnail previews of notifications) - look deeper into this issue before buying.

1. If you set the camera to maximum record of 120 seconds, the solar will not provide enough juice to last a month. You'll need to manually charge.
2. Notifications are a joke. Either disable all or receive all sound alerts. No way to disable just sound and get notifications alerts. There's no way to override using android options.
3. Login is slow and often disconnects during live viewing. After a few seconds of live view, you will always get a warning notification popup, no way to disable.
4. Downloading clips are very slow and you can't let it run in the background when downloading. It must be active app and you'll find yourself waiting for the clip to download.
5. Maximum of 4 shared users account.
I have a lot of experience using these security devices and will say I have a better experience using Wyze cameras.
I highly do not recommend Eufy cameras.

Not to mention the absurd privacy issues.
I'm about to return a new anker hub too. Cause transfer speeds are atrocious.
Seems Anker as a whole is just shitting the bed for qc
