With Amazon's October Prime Day event now in full effect, there are hundreds of smart home deals floating around. Among them is this nearly 30% discount on Eufy Security's S220 2K video doorbell.

This discounted video doorbell comes with two cameras and no monthly fees
Save yourself $70 on the Eufy Security S330 wired video doorbell at Amazon for a limited time
I order a lot of stuff online, and odds are that you do, too. We can't always be home to accept our deliveries and bring them in immediately, which means they just get left out on the porch for everyone to see. Having a video doorbell to replace your standard doorbell is a huge upgrade to your home, especially when they are this affordable. Beyond just packages, knowing who's at your door before getting off of the couch is priceless, and makes this deal worth it on its own. Ahead of the annual Amazon Prime Day event, Eufy has discounted its popular dual-camera video doorbell to just $130. This means you'll save $70 on the purchase, and this deal brings it to within just a few dollars of its all-time lowest price.
Eufy admits its cameras were not always end-to-end encrypted
The Anker sub-brand was caught in a privacy scandal
For a long time, Anker's Eufy sub-brand was one of our go-to security camera recommendations. The company then became embroiled in a security and privacy scandal, with supposedly end-to-end encrypted footage accessible via unencrypted web streams. The company long refused to acknowledge the problem, going so far as to claim that what researchers and journalists had clearly achieved was impossible. After a month of stonewalling, the company has finally provided more satisfactory answers, though we’d still be cautious about taking its word for it.
Eufy finally addresses security camera issues, promises to 'uphold community's trust'
An 'attempt to better separate fact from fiction'
If you've been following smart home news at all closely in recent weeks, you'll no doubt be aware of the situation Eufy's found itself in. In late November, security researcher Paul Moore discovered (and publicized) a number of potentially serious vulnerabilities in Eufy's security cameras. Weeks later, the company quietly changed verbiage on its website in ways that made it look like Eufy was trying to downplay some of the more ostensibly privacy-focused features of its products and services. Now, Eufy has released an official statement about the whole kerfuffle, including a commitment to "continue to work hard to uphold our community’s trust in our products, services, and processes."
Eufy has removed privacy-focused language from its website amid ongoing security camera fiasco
A new wrinkle in Eufy's latest privacy scandal
In recent weeks, Anker-owned smart home brand Eufy has been embroiled in scandal after security consultant Paul Moore discovered a number of potentially serious vulnerabilities that could compromise user privacy, including one particularly gnarly issue that apparently made video feeds from Eufy cameras accessible over the internet with no authentication. Eufy's been slow to respond publicly, and now, it's removed a number of privacy-focused statements from its website.
Eufy Security app adds cloud disclaimer it should have had all along
Notification thumbnails are, in fact, stored in the cloud
In late November, security researcher and consultant Paul Moore discovered a handful of flaws in Eufy's connected security cameras. While the most attention-grabbing issue Moore raised is a vulnerability that hypothetically allowed live camera feeds to be accessed over a web browser without authentication, he also discovered that video thumbnails were being uploaded to and stored in the cloud, seemingly surreptitiously, even though he'd declined to use Eufy's cloud services. At the time, Eufy pledged to add language to its Security app making it clear that enabling certain notification functionality would necessitate some of your data making its way to the cloud. In an app update rolling out now, as spotted by ZDNet, the company's done just that.
Researcher discovers serious security flaws in Eufy cameras — again
Oh, boy, more fun vulnerabilities
Read update
Last year, a "software bug" at Anker-owned Eufy caused a hubbub when multiple owners of the company's connected security cameras were able to access live feeds and saved video recordings from Eufy-branded cameras belonging to other people. Now, Eufy's in similar hot water again. Security researcher Paul Moore recently unearthed a couple of serious security flaws in Eufy devices — including one that could allow people to access unencrypted, live video feeds from Eufy cameras without any kind of authentication.
Eufy's new tracker is like a cheaper AirTag that works with Android
But you'll still need an iPhone for the best experience
Tracking tags are all the rage these days, and aside from Tile, the biggest name in the game remains Apple's AirTags. It relies on a network of nearby Apple devices to relay its location through the Find My network. Although Samsung offers something similar, in the US, nothing is capable of besting Apple's game — AirTags are stronger than ever as people continue to buy more Apple gear. Thankfully, Eufy just made its own Find My-compatible tag, and for a change, this one actually works on Android phones too.
Clean up your home with Prime Day deals on Eufy and Roborock robot vacuums
Achieve pristine floors without breaking the bank
Robot vacuums are perfect for sweeping your floors frequently without getting your hands dirty. Unfortunately, reliable options that perform well are usually relatively expensive, such as the Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra. Thankfully, during Prime Early Access, you can save several hundred dollars on a selection of robot vacuum cleaners. Here are some of the best deals.
Dusty hardwood floors are not pleasant to walk on, but getting on your haunches or even your knees with a brush in one hand and a pan in the other ain't fun, either — you could be spending hours depending on how much real estate you have to cover. Fortunately, with robot vacuums like the Eufy RoboVac G10, life's easier and the floors are cleaner. But this particular sweeper is on sale this weekend and for at its lowest price on record.
Eufy's new all-in-one smart lock lets you ditch your stand-alone video doorbell
Bonus: Google Assistant support, and only one battery to recharge
Shoppers certainly aren't hurting for options when it comes to smart home security solutions, with dozens of companies offering full ranges of intelligent cameras, video doorbells, and connected door locks. If you've picked up even just a few of these, though, you may already have found that juggling multiple apps, to say nothing of keeping everything charged, can be a real headache. Anker sub-brand Eufy is aiming to make this a bit easier by combining multiple devices into one with its upcoming Video Smart Lock.
Anker shows off its tiny new 100W GaN charger, Eufy dual-camera doorbell, and more at CES 2022
GaN chargers, garage cams, and power banks, oh my!
Trade shows like CES are all about wowing attendees with presentation and spectacle, and while that may be easy if you're showing off 120-inch high-refresh-rate OLED TVs, it's a little trickier when you're dealing with lower-key smart home and mobile devices. We've got plenty of love to go around, though, and for CES 2022 we're absolutely making a point to check in with companies like Anker, taking a look at all the new devices and accessories it's introducing, including a few under its eufy and Nebula sub-brands.
