Anker has introduced the Eufy Window Cam E10, an indoor security camera built to keep an eye on the outdoors through a pane of glass. The device is available now for $79.99 through Anker’s online store and Amazon, and it joins a small but growing category of cameras designed to watch yards, driveways, and porches from inside the home.
How the E10 Works
The E10 attaches to the inside of a window with an included mounting sticker, a setup Anker says takes less than a minute. Because the camera never leaves the house, it does not need weatherproofing. The adhesive mount is reusable, and clips are included for routing the power cable.
That approach mirrors the Wyze Window Cam, which arrived nearly a year earlier. But the E10 carries a higher price and a handful of upgrades that may justify the difference for some buyers.
Resolution and Field of View
Where the Wyze Window Cam tops out at 1080p, the E10 records at up to 2.5K, capturing 15fps video at 2,688 x 1,520. That extra detail could matter when identifying faces, license plates, or other specifics in footage.
The E10 also offers a wider and taller view than its rival, at 105 degrees horizontal and 57 degrees vertical. For installations where the camera sits above the area being watched—an upstairs window, for example—the lens angle can be adjusted manually by 25 degrees up or down using a wheel on the back. That gives users a way to frame the yard, driveway, or porch without remounting the device.
Detection, Night Vision, and Audio
The camera includes color night vision and AI-powered motion detection that can tell people, animals, and vehicles apart. Alerts are pushed when motion is detected. A built-in microphone is on board, though Anker notes it is limited to louder sounds given the camera’s position behind glass.
Footage can be stored locally on a microSD card up to 256GB, or sent to the cloud with an optional subscription.
A Wired Setup
One caveat: the E10 has no rechargeable battery. It must be plugged in, which means users will need to route and possibly hide a power cord. Anker’s sub-one-minute installation claim covers the mounting itself, not the cable management that follows.
At $79.99, the E10 costs more than twice as much as the $34.98 Wyze Window Cam. The question for shoppers is whether the higher resolution, wider field of view, adjustable angle, and AI detection are worth the premium. For anyone who wants detailed outdoor coverage without drilling into exterior walls or running weatherproofed wiring, Anker’s latest offering makes its case.
