The Eufy SoloCam S220 counters with the freedoms of a wire-free camera: it is the cheaper, tougher (IP67) pick with a rechargeable battery, built-in solar panel and 2K video, so it can run for long stretches with no cables in a sunny spot. It stores footage locally with no subscription, but it is fixed-view, IR-only at night and 2.4GHz Wi-Fi only. Choose the Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro WiFi for features, hub duties and reliable Wi-Fi; choose the Eufy SoloCam S220 for a self-charging, no-wires, no-fee outdoor camera.
