This Eufy Solar Home Security Camera Is Now on Sale for 40% Off.
The Eufy SoloCam S340 camera is now priced at $119.99, down from $199.99, making it its lowest price yet, according to price tracking . This price reduction makes it easier to choose if you’re looking for a home security camera without ongoing payments. It’s a completely wireless outdoor camera powered by a solar panel, so once installed, you won’t have to frequently charge it or run cables through walls. You can place the included solar panel either on top of the unit or a little further away with a 3-meter USB-C cable if your ideal mounting location doesn’t receive direct or consistent sunlight. Otherwise, setup is minimal ; the main challenge is choosing the right location for the best coverage.
The camera’s main advantage is its dual-lens system: one lens captures a wide field of view, while the other zooms in for detail, allowing you to monitor your entire driveway while still recognizing small details like faces or license plates. The camera also rotates 360 degrees horizontally and tilts 70 degrees vertically, meaning you’re not limited to a fixed angle once installed. You can move the camera using a virtual joystick or assign preset angles to quickly switch between common angles via the companion app—this makes it more like a real-time video surveillance tool than a passive camera, although loading the video feed can take some time, especially when accessed remotely.
Color night vision, a built-in spotlight, and two-way audio enhance your sense of control, allowing you to see and respond to events in real time. Storage is another way the SoloCam S340 differs from many subscription-based systems. The camera has 8GB of built-in memory, allowing you to record and access video locally without paying a cloud plan. If you need more space or improved object recognition, you can connect it to the optional HomeBase 3 hub to expand storage to 16TB. However, while this camera works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant for hands-free control, it does not support Apple HomeKit or the Matter smart home standard, as noted in this PCMag review .
