The HomeBase Professional S1 looks like a faster, more capable hub for Eufy cameras, with multi camera viewing in the app, an HDMI based NVR interface, and a built in battery that can keep it running through outages. It also supports a 3.5 inch drive, and a 2.5 inch SSD can fit with an adapter. The main drawbacks are compatibility gaps with older cameras and devices, plus reports that Eufy app performance and live view can still be slow or unreliable. It feels best suited to newer Eufy setups that need more storage and outage protection.
home security owners who already have a HomeBase S380 and want an upgrade because the S1 adds multi-camera viewing in the app and includes a built-in battery (up to ~24 hours) for power outages.
people with Wi‑Fi Eufy camera setups who want to try to improve live-view responsiveness because testers report the S1 resolves some S380 performance issues and can reduce lag when initiating connections.
buyers who are comfortable using an SSD workaround because you can use a 2.5" SSD in the S1's 3.5" bay with an adapter (so you're not locked out by drive-size differences).
homeowners who want a more "NVR-like" experience in addition to the app because the S1 exposes a full, undocumented NVR UI via HDMI and supports multi-camera streaming on the NVR interface.
loyal Eufy customers with older cameras because multiple commenters say the new HomeBase Pro S1 doesn't support enough older devices, making it "useless" for people who already own working cameras.
owners of a specific older Floodlight Cam (like a T8420S from 2021) because a commenter calls the lack of support on the HomeBase Pro S1 a serious dealbreaker even though it works great on HomeBase 3.
people buying specifically to fix Wi‑Fi decrypt/live-view slowness because one tester says the S1 does NOT fix Wi‑Fi issues in every case (including continuous recording with 2 S3 Pro cameras), and the only improvement came from changing the recording setup.
buyers who rely on Eufy's app/software experience because commenters warn that updated Eufy apps are "notoriously bad and untested" and describe poor engineering/tech support experiences.
people who need broad device compatibility before purchasing because a commenter reports the compatibility list link returns a 404 and they're concerned about verification/compatibility.

The only thing that solved the slow connecting and hitching playback for me was no longer using 2 s3 pro's in continuous recording. ALL my cameras started loading super fast and working well when I stopped doing 2 at the same time in this configuration.
It does NOT look like Eufy has free returns, just a consideration if you are on the fence. I would almost suggest just getting a 2nd Homebase 3 if you have a issue with covering your whole house. I am switching one of my s3 pro units for a E30 flood camera since they put a wifi booster in that model which I hope allows for a better connection to the homebase 3.
The good thing about this upgraded Homebase is the ability to view multiple cameras at once on the app, just like Arlo does on the app. Also the built in battery is very nice to have with up to 24 hours during power outage.
I have my S380 connected to a UPS which supplies power for about 2.5 hours during an outage.
Also compatibility list gives me a 404: https://service.eufy.co
