Anker is a top brand in the security sector, and after being first revealed at IFA 2026, the brand has just released its truly unique newcomer that takes the usual AI-supported functionality up a big new step. I’m talking about the new eufy S4 3K Wired Video Doorbell Cam that not only provides video calls, but also offers panoramic AI tracking through phone or VR headset movements.
Anker’s eufy S4 is the “world’s first VR doorbell”
There’s no debate, the biggest feature of this new Anker S4 Video Doorbell Cam is the panoramic feed from a 180-degree by 180-degree lens, that gives you floor to ceiling and wall to wall vision of your doorstep, but also the AI tracking that moves with your phone or a VR headset.
Powered by the brand’s OmniTrack technology, the intelligent AI tracking functionality here locks onto anyone in the frame and always keeps them centered. Within that frame, homeowners can pan the camera by moving their phone or VR headset during the video call, complete with two-way audio.
The camera provides 3K video feed at up to 24 frames per second with HDR, complete with color night vision alongside 8x zooming action so you’ll be able to see everything. What’s more, it pairs radar alongside two PIR sensors to better pick out people over other movements that could trigger false alerts, like insects, weather, and the like.
Those PIR sensors also provide custom detection zones closer to the door that you’ll be able to draw within a 120-degree field of vision all the way out to 26 feet, allowing it better capabilities for recognizing people, motion, packages, and faces, complete with a glowing light as visitors approach.
While there is a 2,600mAh internal battery here, it’s not used for wireless power and instead acts as a backup powered into your grid
This new S4 model also boasts 4GB of built-in storage for your videos or you can take advantage of the add-on storage (16GB to 16TB) that comes from pairing it with a HomeBase 3 (S380) hub. Doing so also unlocks 24/7 recording on top of more precise AI recognition for people, vehicles, pets, and packages.
Outside of the companion app, this new device also works with Alexa, Google Home, and Apple Home, though the latter of the three does require HomeBase 3 to be added to the mix. Another thing to note is that using any of the three only gives you a fixed live view and doesn’t allow for the OmniTrack or VR mode.
The Anker eufy S4 3K Wired Video Doorbell Cam is officially out now at $299.99 shipped at Amazon and also the brand’s direct website.
