Anker has released the Eufy Window Camera E10, an indoor camera designed to monitor outdoor areas through a window. It is available for $79.99 and offers 2.5K video, adjustable framing and local microSD storage, but it needs a wired power connection.
Anker’s Eufy Window Camera E10, an indoor security camera designed to watch a yard, driveway or porch through a window, is now available for $79.99. The camera attaches to the inside of the glass, avoiding outdoor weather exposure while giving households an option for monitoring outside without mounting a camera outdoors.
The E10 uses an included adhesive mount to sit against a window. The mounting arrangement is intended to reduce glare and reflections in recordings. Anker says installation can take less than a minute, though the camera still needs to be connected to power and its cable may need to be routed or concealed.
The camera records at up to 2.5K resolution, or 2,688 by 1,520 pixels, at 15 frames per second. Its field of view is 105 degrees horizontally and 57 degrees vertically. A wheel on the back lets users adjust the camera angle up or down by as much as 25 degrees, a feature that can help frame an area from windows at different heights.
Other listed features include color night vision and AI-powered motion detection that can send alerts distinguishing among people, animals and vehicles. The built-in microphone is limited to louder sounds, according to The Verge’s report, because the camera is positioned behind a window. Video can be saved locally to a microSD card of up to 256GB or uploaded to the cloud with an optional subscription.
Monitoring Outdoors From Indoors
The E10 offers a different installation choice for people who want to watch outdoor areas but do not want to place a camera outside. Because the device stays indoors, it does not need weatherproofing against rain or other outdoor conditions. The window mount also avoids attaching a camera to an exterior wall, although its view depends on the placement and condition of the glass.
The product’s price and power needs are practical trade-offs. At $79.99, it costs more than twice as much as the $34.98 Wyze Window Cam cited by The Verge. Anker’s camera offers higher resolution and adjustable framing, but it has no rechargeable battery. Buyers need an accessible outlet and may have to manage a visible cable to use it.
For households comparing security cameras, the key distinction is the viewing position: the E10 is designed to record outside through a window, rather than to monitor a room or withstand outdoor exposure. That may suit some setups, but it does not remove limitations tied to glass, camera placement or power access.

A Higher-Resolution Window Camera
The E10 follows the same broad approach as the Wyze Window Cam, which The Verge reported had launched nearly a year earlier: place a camera indoors against a window to monitor the area beyond it. The two products differ in price and stated specifications. Wyze’s camera is limited to 1080p, while the E10 reaches 2.5K at 15 frames per second.
The E10’s adjustable angle and field of view are also part of its pitch. Its 105-degree horizontal and 57-degree vertical coverage is described by The Verge as slightly wider and taller than the Wyze model’s. The adjustment wheel allows the camera to tilt up or down by as much as 25 degrees, which may help when the window is upstairs or positioned above the area a user wants to monitor.
The camera is sold through Anker’s online store and Amazon, according to the report. It supports local recording to a microSD card up to 256GB, while cloud recording requires an optional subscription. The available source does not specify the subscription’s price or storage terms.
“Installation can take less than a minute.”

Details Buyers Still Need
The available report does not provide the cloud subscription price, its storage limits or how long cloud recordings are retained. It also does not detail the camera’s compatibility with smart-home platforms, the length of its power cable, or whether the adhesive mount can be reused across different window surfaces beyond the included reusable mounting design described in the report.
Performance through glass may depend on a household’s specific window, lighting and camera position. The source describes the mount as intended to reduce glare and reflections but does not provide independent test results or explain how the camera performs with different types of glass. Anker’s installation-time statement is a company claim, and actual setup may take longer if the cable needs careful routing.
Availability and Setup Choices
The Eufy Window Camera E10 is available now for $79.99 through Anker’s online store and Amazon, according to The Verge. Prospective buyers can compare its 2.5K recording, adjustable framing and local storage with the lower-priced Wyze Window Cam, while checking whether their window position and access to power suit the installation.
Further details to check before purchase include the optional cloud plan’s terms and the camera’s compatibility with any existing devices or services. The report does not identify a later release date, price change or scheduled software update. The next practical step for buyers is to review current product and subscription information from the seller.
