Eufy Introduces Window-Mounted Security Camera for Renters

How Does the Adhesive Mount Hold Up in Different Weather?

Anker’s Eufy unveiled the Window Camera E10 at IFA 2026, a new security device designed for easy installation without drilling. Targeted at apartment residents and renters, the camera adheres directly to glass surfaces using a strong adhesive mount. It joins Eufy’s expanding lineup of home security products, including the Video Doorbell S4. The device aims to simplify outdoor monitoring for those restricted by rental agreements or building rules.

The Window Camera E10 features a weather-resistant design and connects to Eufy’s HomeBase system for local storage and smart alerts. It captures 2K video with night vision and includes two-way audio for communication. Unlike traditional outdoor cameras, it avoids the need for wiring or permanent modifications, making it ideal for temporary housing. Eufy emphasizes privacy by storing footage locally rather than in the cloud, addressing common user concerns.

What Are the Limitations of Indoor-Facing Glass Placement?

The adhesive backing is engineered to withstand temperature fluctuations, rain, and UV exposure, according to Eufy’s testing. It uses a removable gel that leaves no residue when detached, preserving window integrity. Users can reposition the camera multiple times without losing grip strength. This makes it suitable for seasonal use or frequent movers who need flexible security solutions.

Placing the camera behind glass may reduce motion detection accuracy due to infrared reflection and glare, especially at night. Eufy recommends positioning it away from direct sunlight and interior lights to minimize interference. The device relies on pixel-based motion sensing, which can be less effective through double-pane or tinted windows. Users are advised to test placement before finalizing installation for optimal performance.

Does the Window Camera E10 require a subscription for video storage? No, all footage is stored locally on the connected HomeBase unit, with no mandatory cloud fees.
