What the differences mean
Power source
The Eufy SoloCam S220 is fully wire-free, running on a battery that its own solar panel keeps topped up in a sunny spot. The Eufy Window Camera E10 is wired over USB-C with no battery or solar option, so it must stay within reach of an outlet and stops when the power does.
Where it can be mounted
The Eufy SoloCam S220 is IP67 rated for outdoors and can go on a wall, fence or shed. The Eufy Window Camera E10 has no weather rating and is built to adhere to interior glass, so it films through a window rather than from outside.
Continuous recording
The Eufy Window Camera E10 records 24/7 continuously to a microSD card while it has power. The Eufy SoloCam S220 records motion events only, because it sleeps to save battery, so it will not capture everything that happens.
Night vision
The Eufy Window Camera E10 keeps color after dark with MaxColor night vision and no spotlight, and it adds HDR. The Eufy SoloCam S220 is black-and-white infrared only, with no color night vision or spotlight. For color at night the E10 is the one to pick.
Storage and smart detection
The Eufy Window Camera E10 records to a microSD card of up to 256GB and detects people, pets and vehicles on device. The Eufy SoloCam S220 stores to a fixed 8GB of internal memory with no card slot, and its pet, vehicle and familiar-face detection only appear once it is paired with a HomeBase S380.

What owners say
Owners of the Eufy SoloCam S220 most often praise how fast it goes up, one mount and a few screws and a few minutes in the app, and how rarely it needs charging when it gets a few hours of direct sun. They describe the 2K image as sharp by day and the infrared night vision as clearer than they expected from a small camera, and they value the lack of a subscription and the app's adjustable sensitivity, human-only detection and privacy zones. The recurring grumble is the small solar panel: in shade, or across short winter days, many owners recharge it by cable or add a larger panel, and motion detection draws mixed reports of missed events and false triggers.
