Side-by-Side Comparison
| Spec | eufy Security Video Doorbell E340 (T8214) | Aqara Video Doorbell G410 (Doorbell Camera Hub G410) |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $149.99 | $144.99 |
| Release Year | 2023 | 2025 |
| Resolution (actual pixels) | Sources conflict: eufy's own E340 specification article gives main camera 2048 x 1536 and second camera 1600 x 1200 (which eufy labels "1080p" although it is 4:3); B&H's listing for the same SKU claims 2560 x 1920 / 4MP. eufy markets both lenses simply as "2K" | 2K, 2304 x 1296 (about 3MP) from an f/1.8 lens. Streamed through Apple Home it is downgraded: Aqara states "When using the HSV, the maximum resolution is 1200p" |
| Aspect Ratio | 4:3 on both cameras. There is no single head-to-toe frame — the second, downward-facing camera is what covers the doorstep | Sources conflict: Aqara's product page lists a 4:3 aspect ratio, but the 2304 x 1296 output it quotes on the same page is 16:9 |
| Field of View | Not published by eufy in its E340 specification article, and absent from B&H's and eufy's own listings | 175° wide angle |
| Power Source | Removable USB-C rechargeable battery, or hardwired. eufy requires the battery to stay installed even in wired mode | Six AA alkaline cells (supplied) or hardwired 12-24V AC 0.2A / 12-24V DC 0.5A |
| Wiring / Transformer Requirement | Sources conflict: eufy's product page says "8 to 24V and >10VA", while eufy's own E340 specification support article says "Existing Doorbell Wiring (16-24V, 10VA) or 19V-0.6A DC Power Adapter" | Optional. If you hardwire it, Aqara specifies 12-24VAC — it will not run from an 8VAC transformer, but it is happier than the 16VAC-minimum Nest, Wyze and Lorex |
| Battery Life (claimed) | eufy publishes no month figure for the E340. Linkd Home's 30-day heavy-use test ended at 74% and projected roughly 78 days to shutdown | Aqara claims up to 5 months on the six supplied AA cells. Aqara does not publish the daily event count that figure assumes |
| Wi-Fi Bands | 2.4GHz only (802.11 b/g/n), plus a 433MHz radio for eufy chimes | Dual-band 2.4/5GHz, 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac |
| Local Storage | 8GB eMMC inside the doorbell with no card slot — around 90 days at 30 twenty-second clips a day. Expanding it means buying a HomeBase S280 or S380 separately | microSD up to 512GB in the doorbell itself, plus NAS backup. No separate hub or base station needed |
| Works Without a Subscription | Everything. Recording, playback, human detection, Delivery Guard package detection and face recognition all run locally with no plan | Everything that matters: microSD recording, on-device face recognition, mmWave presence detection and HomeKit Secure Video (which uses your iCloud+ storage, not Aqara's) |
| Behind the Paywall | Nothing essential — eufy sells optional cloud backup only | Only Aqara's optional HomeGuardian cloud plan; HKSV needs an iCloud+ plan and an Apple home hub, which most Apple households already have |
| Smart Home / HomeKit / Matter | Alexa and Google Assistant. No Apple HomeKit, no Matter | HomeKit Secure Video (requires an Apple home hub), Alexa, Google Home, SmartThings and Home Assistant. It is a Matter controller and Thread border router for other devices — but Matter carries no video, so the camera reaches Apple Home through HKSV, not through Matter |
| Indoor Chime | Not on this SKU. It drives an existing mechanical chime, a eufy HomeBase, or a smart speaker; the chime bundle is a separate purchase | Yes — a USB-C powered 95dB chime repeater ships in the box |
| Warranty | 12 months | 12 months |
| Colors | Black | Black, Gray |

Pros & Cons
eufy Security Video Doorbell E340 (T8214)
Pros
- +The second, downward camera is the only genuinely different answer to the parcel problem here — everyone else stretches one lens into a tall frame
- +8GB on the doorbell itself means no hub, no card and no monthly fee, unlike Blink and Arlo whose local storage needs a base station
- +Works battery or wired, and the battery pops out on USB-C instead of coming off the wall
- +Face recognition and package detection run on the device — the same features Ring charges $19.99/mo for
Cons
- −eufy's own two sources disagree on the wiring requirement (8-24V vs 16-24V) and on the sensor resolution, which is careless for a $150 device
- −2.4GHz Wi-Fi only, and Linkd Home measured 13.6 seconds average notification latency with thumbnails
- −No field-of-view figure is published anywhere, so you cannot compare its coverage on paper
- −No Apple HomeKit and no Matter, so Apple households are locked out
- −eufy's history of cloud-privacy incidents is a real consideration for a camera pointed at your front door
Aqara Video Doorbell G410 (Doorbell Camera Hub G410)
Pros
- +The only genuine HomeKit Secure Video doorbell here, and it stores to iCloud+ rather than to another vendor's paid cloud
- +mmWave radar catches someone loitering that a PIR sensor sleeps through — no other doorbell in this set has it
- +Buys you a Zigbee hub, a Thread border router and a Matter controller in the same $145 as the doorbell
- +Cheap replaceable AA cells rather than a proprietary pack, and a real microSD slot up to 512GB
- +Chime is included, which Ring, Arlo, Blink and eufy all make you buy separately
Cons
- −HomeKit Secure Video caps the stream at 1200p, so Apple users never see the 2K the box advertises
- −Aqara's own page gives a 4:3 aspect ratio next to a 16:9 sensor output — one of them is wrong
- −The "Matter" badge is about the hub, not the camera: no Matter controller will ever show you this doorbell's video
- −The five-month AA claim comes with no stated event count, so it is untestable as a promise
- −175° of wide angle at 3MP means noticeably less detail per degree than the 5MP Reolink or Tapo
