What video doorbell are you using? Also if you want to check out the full comparison article, here’s the link: smarthomesolver.com/reviews/best-smart-video-doorbells-2021-update/
I have a Dream Machine Pro so I can go with the Unifi doorbell easy enough but I feel like I need to commit to their cameras as well then which are massively expensive.
Nice touch to quote Harvey Dent from one of my favorite movie trilogies! 👍 I have not yet switched to a video doorbell (and that's inspite of having several free ones sent over by companies that wanted to partner and integrate their products into our smart research platform). But that could be because I am picky about latency, no subscription fees, no being tied into any manufacturer's ecosystem etc.....and because I am able to replicate most of the features (except the chime) built into video doorbells with regular cameras from Reolink with Blue Iris or even Raspberry Pi with motioneye (and few Twillio and/or Sendgrid routines for notifications) . 🙂 Completely agree with your assessment though (especially for non-geeks like me) about Eufy for budget conscious consumers and the newer Ring Pro for people with extra budget (even though many of my friends are sick of the increasing latency with their older models - planned obsolescence in older models?). Question: What is your thought about any theft deterrent features built into the doorbells you reviewed here? I know there was concern previously about some doorbells getting built in SD card storage to solve the missing 24/7 recording problem but that was defeated if the doorbell could be stolen relatively easily.
This is the second home in which ruclips.net/user/postUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQU we've replaced our "regular" doorbell with a Ring video doorbell and we really enjoy it. It is very easy to install and it works very well, with a clear picture through the app and good in-home use (we added the chime, which is also easy to install and doesn't require another thought to use).
Agreed. Excellent production, clips, sound, explaining and easy to understand. Here have 500.000 goldstars for a job well done 👍 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✖️100.000 Thank you 😊
You missed one critical test. Stick the doorbell in the freezer for 2 hours and see if it still works. My Ring 3 is useless for 3 months of the year as i live in Norway.
Place a heat pad behind the ring setup if wired. It will be a makeshift build but a solution nevertheless. If you want to get fancy you can get an Arduino (or some type of IFTTT trigger) to program it to only kick off at certain low temps. I have a heat pad warm up my lithium batteries at a certain temp automagically.
I have the ring pro 2 and the small picture on the echo show can be fixed simply by telling the echo show to zoom in,a feature I've not seen advertised anywhere(I found it by accident).The echo show remembers this setting until you power cycle it or tell it to zoom out.
We have a Wyze cam and your review is spot on. My notifications do show up quickly, though. An SD card option would be awesome. Still happy with it for the price.
I am literally returning both my Eufy tomorrow because there is times I get notifications and then I go to see recording and nothing or there is times it goes hours without recording. Ever since the system update I have been having this problem. I updated it like about a couple weeks ago before the update it was great. I even got a replacement and same thing, so that lemme know it was something to do with the update.
I've had nothing but issues with mine. The UDMPRO consistently resets itself and loading into the live feed on my Pixel 4XL is unbearably slow. The other issue I have is that you cannot set a custom "doorbell" notification when the doorbell is pressed.
Reed’s two way cam voice said “you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain “ Then it’s says “I see you but how long can you look at me with out blinking” 😳 lol
With your next review it would be helpful to also know which ones are wired, which are battery operated, battery duration under average use, and distance from router/modem or hub.
Have been using Eufy for 2 years now and love their system. Also have 2 of their cameras, all connected to their base station. Notifications are fast and reliable. Video quality is very high. Batteries last approx 6-7 months ( I live in Seattle. Gets cold in winter, but usually not freezing). Nice not to have to pay monthly fees and you can store a ton of video on their base station system.
The scoring is just a quick way to see what my opinion is after using all of them. I try and show as much as I can so the viewer can be the ultimate judge about the doorbell. If you don’t like the scoring just ignore it because it’s just a bonus thing anyways.
This was a good review but my issue with all these youtube reviews is they do a great job covering the features but if you read through the reviews from online stores (ie: Amazon or BestBuy) features is not the major issue people have with these doorbells. 1) difficulty of installation (App simply won't connect to bell, or app won't work on certain OS) 2) Network connections (ie: won't connect to wifi if router has both 2.4 & 5.0 Ghz transmission) 3) Poor customer service (they don't stand by their product even if it is clearly their fault) 4) Not working as advertised (ie: does not always detect motion, doorbell does not always ring or notify when pressed) I've owned a half dozen of these over the years and my honest opinion, they ALL eventually fail either partially or completely within 1 or 2 years. So in short, caveat emptor: they are all about as reliable as a 1980s Fiat.
Ultimate doorbell features but still not found. NO Cloud Poe Good camera no stretched fisheye crap. Aimable camera Onvif and good app for notification or HA integration. Electric relay for garage or door
It's not "Ultimate" without Arlo, which many reviewers select as the best video doorbell available. And it's the only doorbell that will work seamlessly with existing mechanical doorbell chimes.
Isn't it clear that best all-round doorbell here (and by best I'm referring to image quality both day and night, given that this seems to be the most crucial aspect) was the Ring Pro 2?
@@Mr.Torres831 I haven't bought yet actually, so let's go through it as we all have different interpretations. Two things first though: none of them are good enough quality really, given what you can achieve with even a cheap £150 Sansco 1080p 4-cam CCTV system from Amazon. But also, I was basing my opinion on the night-time quality mainly, because that's when I'm more likely to have someone come to the door who's not known, not easily-identifiable later (like a delivery driver would be, even from scant detail), or someone who's up to something dubious. *Wyze* - Daytime = Hardly any real detail on face, Night = About the same *Unify* - Daytime = Not enough contrast on face, Night = Next-to-no detail *Ring Pro 2* - Daytime = Not fantastic but definitely better detail/ contrast when subject comes close to cam, Night = Slightly speccly image but definitely more detail *Netatmo* - Daytime = Face too dark again, so although plenty of colour, not much detail, and overall not as crisp an image as the Ring, Night = Similar to the first two *Nest* - Daytime = not enough light/ detail on face, Night - Next to no detail on face. *Eufy* - Aha. I was judging by the brief clip shown here, but having just gone back and watched his dedicated review of that particular doorbell, I have to admit that it's pretty good. Better or worse than the Ring? Probably about even. Frankly, I would have like to have seen the same test done at a location which isn't enclosed like that, and where more natural light during the daytime or light from streetlamps might have helped. In the meantime I shall probably wait for something better to come to the market, as I'm slightly baffled as-to why mobile phones (with similar sized sensors) can give near-professional quality images/ video, yet dedicated security devices such as these can't get anywhere near.
I really like all your video's. You try and put humor in them, which I can appreciate. I hoped you would have done the Amcrest doorbell. I have the Ring Elite in my brand new house and love it. When you pair it with the alarm the $100.00 a year alarm monitoring and unlimited camera subscription it is a good value!
I was hoping to see the Amcrest as well to see how it compared. I have one that I installed last year. At the time it was the only one that produced an ONVIF video stream so I could view the camera with BlueIris. Not sure why it was overlooked in this review.
@@IgorAntarov seems that in the world, doesn't exist a SERIOUS device that do that. All s*** with battery and / or impossible integration with Home assistant
I have a Eufy 2k Batt doorbell and set the Alexa routine to play live feed on my Echo Show 5 when some one press the door bell.. it works when testing out on the Preview but when actual press on door bell doesn't. Not sure anyone faced the same issue
I got the wyze. I like it. But like you said the notifications are horrible. Notified 3 min later the person has already left. Wyze serves a purpose to allow entry level users. To push bigger companies to innovate and bring prices down.
Coming back 3 years later, I have still yet to see a better review + comparison. Showing the app and how it looks side by side against competition is extremely useful if not essential.
Really good video. For me, the ability to unlock a gate (or door) from within the app is key and I think that is where Ring has everyone beat (even if it isn’t that comprehensive).
The 115 degree heat last week plus the bell is west facing killed my third video doorbell in two years. Time to look for something that plastic pcp board will not warp from the heat.
monthly fees suck. Plus I don't want my camera footage leaving my house.. That's why I went with Unifi.. everything stays with me and the cameras and notifications are great. The doorbell does seem to get pretty warm though, but other than that, no complaints.
Correction at 6:05. "3D Motion Detection" uses radar from the doorbell to determine a person's position, then overlay their position & path on a satellite image. They don't use satellite imagery to locate people.
Ultimate Comparison? Not even close! This video should have been titled "Limited 2021 WiFi Video Doorbell Comparison" because it only covers some of the more popular WiFi doorbells but completely omits the family of IP doorbells often considered by true Smart Home consumers - like the Hikvision DS-KV6113, DoorBird, Ring Doorbell Elite, Yoosee KW02 & SD-M5, Axis A8004-VE just to name a few. WiFi Doorbells present a half-assed approach to security. When it comes to Wi-Fi enabled doorbells, jamming is a serious threat. Jamming is a type of cyber security threat that is incredibly easy to create. Wi-Fi jammers are readily available, cost as little as $10 and can even be purchased off Amazon. Any enterprising thief only needs to fire up a jammer to shut down they key part of your main external security. True, POE (wired) doorbells are more of a pain to install but when it comes to the security of my family they're worth it!
Although I am in the market for a video doorbell, I wouldn't touch eufy with a 10ft pole. I purchased the eufy security camera (2C) and found it was absolute junk. Has put me off of any eufy product.
The wired Ring doorbells (as well as wired Nest Hello doorbells) are great products. HOWEVER, they don't tell you upfront that these wired doorbells all have an internal non-user-serviceable battery. IF you will be using the doorbell with a mechanical chime, just be aware that at some point, the battery inside will fail. The internal battery on these units are used to provide temporary voltage to the doorbell unit when a mechanical chime is used. When someone presses the doorbell button, power is temporarily routed away from the doorbell to the chime inside the house. The battery keeps the doorbell powered for the 1-2 seconds while this happens. Over time, this small battery will be unable to deal with the voltage drop and your doorbell will lose power and reboot itself. If you don't rely on a mechanical chime or if you use the Ring wireless chime, than it won't be an issue. If you do use a mechanical chime, depending on your environment (which includes usage rate, weather, temperature, etc.), the doorbell will stop function properly at some point in time. For most users, it seems to be somewhere between 1-3 years.
@@ilyas_khan I'm not sure if Ring has any battery powered products that can be wired to a mechanical door chime. The ones I'm aware of can be charged by the doorbell wiring but do not have the ability to ring a physical chime besides the wireless electronic chime that Ring sells (and this chime is powered by a standard indoor outlet). But in general, you won't have that issue as any supplemental power for a mechanical chime would come from the replaceable and rechargeable battery which is not present in the Ring Pro / Pro2.
I have had Ring Pro for more than a year. Ring Pro has given me some trouble, video recording stops when the button is pressed. It gets disconnected with wi-fi and no more recording. I don't want to buy Ring anymore, stopped subscription. I just ordered Eufy doorbell because I have had a good experience with Eufy smart door lock.
Great video, Reed. I've been thinking about getting a video doorbell for a few months now and this video guide has led me in the right direction. When there are a few top options, that's when the hard part comes in. I'm considering Eufy, Nest, or Ring - but I'll also have to get Hoobs up and running to get it working within myHomeKit setup.
I have the Eufy battery video doorbell had it for a month, for some reason my battery doesn't stay charge no longer than 3weeks, I'm going to contact Eufy about this what do you suggest.
I’m using the Unifi G4 doorbell with Home Assistant. It integrates well and you can install it using HACS for the Unifi Protect. I have motion/doorbell alerts, you can get image previews in the notifications and live video feed in the dashboard using RTSP.
Glad you liked the video. I normally wouldn’t walk looking at the camera but I’m doing it so you can compare video quality of the doorbells. Getting footage of myself standing or walking in front of the doorbells is my least favorite thing.
Bought Nest doorbell 1 year ago and worked great for about 10 months, to include the capturing of approaching individuals from about 20-25 feet; however, it no longer can detect motion unless 5-7 feet away and I contacted tech support; we want through changes in the app and reset the unit; then they sent me replacement unit since within year warranty and the same thing; have to be about 5-7 feet or closer to trigger motion, and they now claim it can be my wifi, which there was no issues during first 10 mos; I saw online others experiencing same thing, and I’m thoroughly disappointed!!! Never again, and will switch to Ring Pro 2 Which I should have bought instead of fecal Nest doorbell
Thank you for putting all this effort into making a great review. I wish you had also covered the Ring Doorview camera and rated cameras by auto-display on Echo Show.
You didn't share with viewers the recording quality options. The night vision quality of my nest doorbell is excellent, I've got the quality set to high. Would have been worth mentioning WiFi compatibility with 2.4 and 5ghz bands
Were you able to get the Eufy to work with Echo Show? Amazon in their infinite wisdom (insert sarcasm here) decided to change all the Eufy cameras to "motion sensor" in the device type. When you go to set up on which Echo devices you want the Eufy doorbell announcement to sound, it shows that "live view" is available along with announcements, but because the Eufy doorbell is set up by default as a motions sensor, Echo does not read it as a camera so there is no live view to be shown. I have seen some people who created a routine for the Echo Show to load up the doorbell, but because it is a routine, it takes much longer and defeats the purpose of having a "smart" doorbell and as added problem, it only shows the image, it does not allow you to talk to the person at the door, which again defeats the purpose of the smart doorbell. Any ideas or suggestions, pretty please?
What makes people choose the Unify g4 over the Eufy? Reed mentioned it had poor two way audio too! I’ve got a Eufy but was thinking about getting the G4 for my dads home. Thanks a bunch!
Eufy has a battery only option whereas Ubiquiti do not. I have a 9 inch thick brick wall so no real easy way to route a bell cable to the front door. My last eufy battery lasted 6 months.... I would get the g4 in a heartbeat if they offered a battery option
I purchased the Wyze doorbell and I am seriously considering replacing it. By the time you get the notification that someone is at your door, they're already gone. 50% - 60% of the times I try to check the live feed, it won't connect to my wi-fi. I have to restart it to get it to function. Worst of all, every day from 2pm until about 5pm, the sun shines directly on the doorbell, it overheats, and doesn't work at all. Wyze, as a company, needs to find a direction. One month they announce that they are coming out with outdoor wireless cameras, next month they've moved on to robot vacuums and the cameras are forgotten. The month after that they move on to fitness watches and the vacuums are forgotten. They need to find one thing that they are really good at and then get really great at it. Don't just half-ass a project then move on.
Hi Reed, thanks for the video! It's awesome as always. But do you mind adding Arlo and Blink as well? Seems those two brands are also worth to be rated.
I use a Eufy door bell and like it quite a bit. We also have a Eufy camera at the back door with a severely limited motion detection range so we know when the dog wants to come back inside.
Really good and insightful overview of what is on offer, thanks. However, as a tech novice regarding these devices I was also eager to understand what products required hard wiring or batteries or could handle both options. Thanks again for a great research tool!
The unifi cameras (and doorbell) send motion snapshots to both your phone and apple watch if you have one of those. Edit: I just got my G4 pro doorbell and it's nice. 30fps playback is so much smoother than my Ring Pro was and image quality in day/night is close enough that I can't really tell much difference. Glad to save $50/year though with no subscription.
I appreciate your mention of the audio quality. For those of us with hearing impairments, even with hearing aids we sometimes cannot understand tiny tinny-sounding audio. It’s especially useful that you play the audio so we can judge it for ourselves. Thank you!
Great comparison review, but for me I would like to see how these work as a doorbell with chime options/costs and also can they automatically pop up on google home or Alexa displays and what features available on the displays. I know its odd and very 'old school', but I don't walk around with my phone in my hand all the time.
Thanks for this video which is perfect timing for me. One thing is consistently left out even from manufacturers are the physical dimensions of the devices. So far I found that Nest Doorbell is the slimmer. Even then, it's an eigth of an inch too wide to be put on the jamb. I really wish they would be slimmer or had a slimmer adapter especially for the angled installation.
I have Arlo Video Doorbell for a year, bad product, terrible customer support. The doorbell shows pixelation video on all recordings. Many people have complained pixelation video on their support forum since Day One with no real resolution. Last year they even change their customer acceptable agreement to try to prevent people doing class action lawsuits on them!
I have the Nest Hello that I got on launch, crazy to think it's still relevant all this time later considering they have only really added one feature since the launch for notifying you when you get a package and when its taken.
Ring doorbell doesn't work with the wires of the house. The Ring Chime doesn't work anymore just out off the box. (Netherlands). I would not recommend Ring products.
so I am looking for a doorbell product, that allows a schedule to be programmed, so that when the video doorbell is connect to the internal mechanical doorbell inside the house, that it ONLY ring the INTERNAL mechanical doorbell from say 9 am to 11 am, and turn OFF the remaining hours and if there is no such product, is there a product that can create a schedule and ring an add-on product, like some sort of Chime, but only chime at certain time of the day, program by me, again, say from 9 am to 11 am for e.g.
I am using a ZModo video doorbell. It was less expensive, I get 24 hours of review capability for free, and if I want to save the video I can save it to my IPhone or IPad. I can live view on my TV using Google Chromecast.
I got the Ring first. it never really worked during the 3 months i had it. No alerts etc. Dozens of calls to customer service who sent me 2 warranty replacements-- all the same. I had to reboot the device, the phone, router several times per day just to keep it working. I believe the Ring has issues with certain phones, routers. I got the Eufy 2k and it works great-- same phone, router and location. I wish there were better instructions. But after some time i dialed the motion sensitive very low to stop false alerts. I want an alert to someone on my porch that is all and the Eufy does that. Not saying the Ring is a bad product. But it didnt work at all for me.
You don’t know anything. Try the Logitech doorbell with HomeKit secure video then update your video. And what transformers are you using and resistors?
@@SmartHomeSolver I just heard of it in a reddit thread. If you do a review don't forget to give me a shout-out. Love the videos! Also miss the inigio Montoya
Woah! This went on sale since last October and is the first time I'm hearing about it, thank you so much! Definitely will think about upgrading my current non-pro Eufy doorbell to that one sometime as the 5 day continuous recording for free as well as the 4x3 format looks like great additions.
I’ve been using a UniFi setup for years for my home network and security cameras, so all I had to add was the doorbell since I had all the other necessary equipment. Only been using the doorbell for a month, but I have no complaints.
I think you need to check your connections in your house for your doorbell and get a more powerful amp because the G4 doorbell that I put in has none of those problems as in no audio delay none of that stuff I went above and beyond the power that it said it's required and it works flawlessly audio quality is very crisp and clear through talking I was so shocked how good it was none of that rattly stuff that you had
I have had the google doorbell for years. I few years ago I bought a second Google camera and I always had Nest Aware. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GOOGLE PRODUCT. They doubled the price of Nest Aware, there is no customer service. No body to call. My first Nest doorbell front face peeled so I bought another with no accountability from Google. They are well aware of this problem. I bought a second nest doorbell and it did the same. Why did they spray a clear coat on the face of a doorbell if they knew the clear coat peels?????? Why did they not rather just polish the plastic if they wanted it shiny??? Google is CRAP. RING is much better.
I've watched several of these comparison videos and this is by far the most comprehensive when it comes to practical usage. Thank you - I've decided to blow my cash on the Ring P2, that is if they ever come back in stock.
I own several Eufy cameras and I am regretting it. My door bell seems to only send me a notice only when I walk in front of the damn thing and will not when strangers come to my door. Also sends notifications when it feels like it. What a freaking waste of money.
Anything but Skybell. It's complete junk. General Contractor here of 30 years. Our (GREAT) alarm co. installed the Skybells on our own home. The knock out of synch. PLENTY of signal to both units. We even have wi-fi boosters in the home. They're junk. I have a friend with RING and NEVER, EVER has had an issue. Also with Skybell... if someone is at your door and you look at the camera while they are there (if it's someone you don't want to see/talk with) the Skybell does NOT record and incident. So, what's the point? When you get a notification someone is at your door, by the time their app logs you on to see who it is... THEY'RE GONE! Cripes... Amazon BLINK cameras have WAY BETTER software (and sensitively adjustments). With the sun on our front and trees moving, even on the LOWEST sensitivity we're getting notifications every 30 fricken seconds. WHAT is we're away or driving. Does idiot Skybell want us to DISABLE the motion feature of our doorbells until the wind stops? WHAT KIND of security is that? I'll bash these cameras on our business page, website, to clients and anyone that'll listen. Skybell is UNreliable JUNK! Skybell is the saddest joke on the electronic market. SKYBELL = JUNK!!
We had the eufy wired doorbell for a long while and the notifications weren’t showing up on our phones, so we decided to switch to the ring pro. The reason that we got the eufy doorbell is the free cloud storage, but we have a ring spotlight camera right above our ring pro that we bought the ring protect basic plan for
Ive done a lot of research and ended up just going with a $20 kangaroo doorbell and then supplement it by adding a Reolink Argus PT wireless solar powered 1028 HD two way audio and night vision camera. Pan and Tilt, Motion security alerts, alarms etc. Great product for $140. Wireless WiFi connection and powered by a solar panel.
Hey Reed. I have a G4 Pro doorbell and love it. Only issue is that it does come with a chime. Have you got it working with a chime or having it ring on a google nest hub 2?
Hey Zac! I have a digital chime and the G4 doorbell is working with it. I disabled the chime in the Unifi settings so I could have it just announce on the Echos instead. That way I can schedule when they announce for when the baby is sleeping…etc. I just have the doorbell connected with Home Assistant and then I’m using Alexa Media Player to send a routine to announce on the Echos someone is at the door. I haven’t got mine working with my nest hub though.
@@SmartHomeSolver Thanks for the reply. I have both echos and google hubs. How did you get it working on the echos? Did you need home assistant to get it working? I have setup home assistant setup on a raspberry pi 4 but that is all I got too at this point.
It's interesting to see how having a different front door setup (as compared to your 2020 video) seems makes a huge difference in what features become more valuable.
Great review. Really useful. Bought the Eufy after seeing your video last year ! Still very happy with it. Only thing Indon’t understand is why you recommend the unify g4 when it has such terrible two way audio. Or did I misunderstand this ?
I got one of ebay, pile of garbage. I was told to change my transformer which I did still didn't work. I want one with. Hard wired. No subscription. Sd card saves. My existing ding done must work. Anyone with any recommendations?
What video doorbell are you using? Also if you want to check out the full comparison article, here’s the link: smarthomesolver.com/reviews/best-smart-video-doorbells-2021-update/
I use a ring 3
I am glad you did an update. i was curious to see what you thought about the Unifi G4 door bell camera.
I have a Dream Machine Pro so I can go with the Unifi doorbell easy enough but I feel like I need to commit to their cameras as well then which are massively expensive.
Nice touch to quote Harvey Dent from one of my favorite movie trilogies! 👍
I have not yet switched to a video doorbell (and that's inspite of having several free ones sent over by companies that wanted to partner and integrate their products into our smart research platform). But that could be because I am picky about latency, no subscription fees, no being tied into any manufacturer's ecosystem etc.....and because I am able to replicate most of the features (except the chime) built into video doorbells with regular cameras from Reolink with Blue Iris or even Raspberry Pi with motioneye (and few Twillio and/or Sendgrid routines for notifications) . 🙂
Completely agree with your assessment though (especially for non-geeks like me) about Eufy for budget conscious consumers and the newer Ring Pro for people with extra budget (even though many of my friends are sick of the increasing latency with their older models - planned obsolescence in older models?).
Question: What is your thought about any theft deterrent features built into the doorbells you reviewed here? I know there was concern previously about some doorbells getting built in SD card storage to solve the missing 24/7 recording problem but that was defeated if the doorbell could be stolen relatively easily.
Great video but I am left wondering how the Arlo would have compared. Recently got a Ring Pro 2 and was in doubt between it and the Arlo.
This is the second home in which ruclips.net/user/postUgkx0jZ_lGlDVJhDnmagEU8gn47cmfPNlLQU we've replaced our "regular" doorbell with a Ring video doorbell and we really enjoy it. It is very easy to install and it works very well, with a clear picture through the app and good in-home use (we added the chime, which is also easy to install and doesn't require another thought to use).
Wow, this is the most comprehensive video doorbell comparison on RUclips for sure. It’s obvious a huge amount of work went into it. Thanks you Reed!
Thanks Guy! It was a lot of work and I appreciate the nice comment!
Agreed. Excellent production, clips, sound, explaining and easy to understand. Here have 500.000 goldstars for a job well done 👍
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✖️100.000
Thank you 😊
I bought the Eufy off of this and I can agree with every point
A comprehensive review indeed. This is how reviews should be done. Thank you!
Where’s the Vivint camera at though?
You missed one critical test. Stick the doorbell in the freezer for 2 hours and see if it still works. My Ring 3 is useless for 3 months of the year as i live in Norway.
Ring 3 blir det vell ikke da😂😂
Are you using your Ring 3 hardwired or by battery?
Bru, I laughed when I read this!! LOL!!😂😂
Place a heat pad behind the ring setup if wired. It will be a makeshift build but a solution nevertheless. If you want to get fancy you can get an Arduino (or some type of IFTTT trigger) to program it to only kick off at certain low temps.
I have a heat pad warm up my lithium batteries at a certain temp automagically.
That is actually a brilliant idea.
Best security device. Ask your nosy neighbor They always know what’s going on
Facts lol 😂 And that would be my mother 🙄 yes she’s my neighbor so annoying.
@@marisolrivas777 well good thing is your mother can easily scare the robber and talk to him to death and he would run away from her.
I have the ring pro 2 and the small picture on the echo show can be fixed simply by telling the echo show to zoom in,a feature I've not seen advertised anywhere(I found it by accident).The echo show remembers this setting until you power cycle it or tell it to zoom out.
Oh that's a good tip! Thanks Tom!
Thanks for putting this together. I was, however, really hoping to see the newest Arlo model reviewed.
We have a Wyze cam and your review is spot on. My notifications do show up quickly, though. An SD card option would be awesome. Still happy with it for the price.
Awesome job Reed, such a detailed and helpful video! Eufy definitely does seem the best option at the more budget end of the market.
I am literally returning both my Eufy tomorrow because there is times I get notifications and then I go to see recording and nothing or there is times it goes hours without recording. Ever since the system update I have been having this problem. I updated it like about a couple weeks ago before the update it was great. I even got a replacement and same thing, so that lemme know it was something to do with the update.
You are not going to miss a knock on the door with all of those doorbells 😀
I've had ring doorbell for 6 months. I've missed 5 rings and motion so far.
I have the UniFi Doorbell and I love it. The only con to me is lack of POE
I've had nothing but issues with mine. The UDMPRO consistently resets itself and loading into the live feed on my Pixel 4XL is unbearably slow. The other issue I have is that you cannot set a custom "doorbell" notification when the doorbell is pressed.
Hardly anyone has PoE ability at their doorbell haha
Where’s the vivint doorbell camera? It’s 4K
Reed’s two way cam voice said “you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain “ Then it’s says “I see you but how long can you look at me with out blinking” 😳 lol
The only one I was curious about was Logitech as is only one with Apple secure video…
Dang I was hoping for the Logitech doorbell review too
It confused me more than it helped me pick the right one lol
With your next review it would be helpful to also know which ones are wired, which are battery operated, battery duration under average use, and distance from router/modem or hub.
Have been using Eufy for 2 years now and love their system. Also have 2 of their cameras, all connected to their base station. Notifications are fast and reliable. Video quality is very high. Batteries last approx 6-7 months ( I live in Seattle. Gets cold in winter, but usually not freezing). Nice not to have to pay monthly fees and you can store a ton of video on their base station system.
I'm sorry but yet again your scoring is just too arbitrary. You really need to get some some professional advice on how to score products.
The scoring is just a quick way to see what my opinion is after using all of them. I try and show as much as I can so the viewer can be the ultimate judge about the doorbell. If you don’t like the scoring just ignore it because it’s just a bonus thing anyways.
Would have loved to have seen the Logi Circle doorbell
Me too
I have it and it's fantastic.
This was a good review but my issue with all these youtube reviews is they do a great job covering the features but if you read through the reviews from online stores (ie: Amazon or BestBuy) features is not the major issue people have with these doorbells.
1) difficulty of installation (App simply won't connect to bell, or app won't work on certain OS)
2) Network connections (ie: won't connect to wifi if router has both 2.4 & 5.0 Ghz transmission)
3) Poor customer service (they don't stand by their product even if it is clearly their fault)
4) Not working as advertised (ie: does not always detect motion, doorbell does not always ring or notify when pressed)
I've owned a half dozen of these over the years and my honest opinion, they ALL eventually fail either partially or completely within 1 or 2 years. So in short, caveat emptor: they are all about as reliable as a 1980s Fiat.
Ultimate doorbell features but still not found.
NO Cloud
Poe
Good camera no stretched fisheye crap.
Aimable camera
Onvif
and good app for notification or HA integration.
Electric relay for garage or door
It's not "Ultimate" without Arlo, which many reviewers select as the best video doorbell available. And it's the only doorbell that will work seamlessly with existing mechanical doorbell chimes.
Got the Eufy doorbell replaced with Ring. Eufy is way better. Even working in -29 temperature.
Got it... If I want to rob a house wear a Yoda mask.
Isn't it clear that best all-round doorbell here (and by best I'm referring to image quality both day and night, given that this seems to be the most crucial aspect) was the Ring Pro 2?
@@Mr.Torres831 I haven't bought yet actually, so let's go through it as we all have different interpretations. Two things first though: none of them are good enough quality really, given what you can achieve with even a cheap £150 Sansco 1080p 4-cam CCTV system from Amazon. But also, I was basing my opinion on the night-time quality mainly, because that's when I'm more likely to have someone come to the door who's not known, not easily-identifiable later (like a delivery driver would be, even from scant detail), or someone who's up to something dubious.
*Wyze* - Daytime = Hardly any real detail on face, Night = About the same
*Unify* - Daytime = Not enough contrast on face, Night = Next-to-no detail
*Ring Pro 2* - Daytime = Not fantastic but definitely better detail/ contrast when subject comes close to cam, Night = Slightly speccly image but definitely more detail
*Netatmo* - Daytime = Face too dark again, so although plenty of colour, not much detail, and overall not as crisp an image as the Ring, Night = Similar to the first two
*Nest* - Daytime = not enough light/ detail on face, Night - Next to no detail on face.
*Eufy* - Aha. I was judging by the brief clip shown here, but having just gone back and watched his dedicated review of that particular doorbell, I have to admit that it's pretty good. Better or worse than the Ring? Probably about even.
Frankly, I would have like to have seen the same test done at a location which isn't enclosed like that, and where more natural light during the daytime or light from streetlamps might have helped. In the meantime I shall probably wait for something better to come to the market, as I'm slightly baffled as-to why mobile phones (with similar sized sensors) can give near-professional quality images/ video, yet dedicated security devices such as these can't get anywhere near.
No Arlo Video Doorbell? Don't hate on Arlo!
I really like all your video's. You try and put humor in them, which I can appreciate. I hoped you would have done the Amcrest doorbell. I have the Ring Elite in my brand new house and love it. When you pair it with the alarm the $100.00 a year alarm monitoring and unlimited camera subscription it is a good value!
I was hoping to see the Amcrest as well to see how it compared. I have one that I installed last year. At the time it was the only one that produced an ONVIF video stream so I could view the camera with BlueIris. Not sure why it was overlooked in this review.
a doorbell without battery, with the best integration with home assistant, that save video when someone ring at door in the nvr or ftp, exist?
I have the same question
@@IgorAntarov seems that in the world, doesn't exist a SERIOUS device that do that. All s*** with battery and / or impossible integration with Home assistant
Reed - you’re a good man! Love the comparison videos 👍🏻
Thanks Dan! Glad to hear you like them!
Do any of these run entirely locally (ie zero cloud) and integrate with Home Assistant?
I have a Eufy 2k Batt doorbell and set the Alexa routine to play live feed on my Echo Show 5 when some one press the door bell.. it works when testing out on the Preview but when actual press on door bell doesn't. Not sure anyone faced the same issue
How do you like the doorbell?
I got the wyze. I like it. But like you said the notifications are horrible. Notified 3 min later the person has already left.
Wyze serves a purpose to allow entry level users. To push bigger companies to innovate and bring prices down.
Coming back 3 years later, I have still yet to see a better review + comparison.
Showing the app and how it looks side by side against competition is extremely useful if not essential.
(Baby Yoda gets rejected as a person)
*Burglar: I have an idea (Proceed to order a Yoda mask for Halloween)*
They are all ugly and oversized. Apple needs to make one then we'd have a slick compact design.
Really good video. For me, the ability to unlock a gate (or door) from within the app is key and I think that is where Ring has everyone beat (even if it isn’t that comprehensive).
"...the ability to unlock a gate (or door) from within the app is key..." hehe, pun intended? 😂
The 115 degree heat last week plus the bell is west facing killed my third video doorbell in two years. Time to look for something that plastic pcp board will not warp from the heat.
My ring has lasted the az heat wave for the last 2 years
monthly fees suck. Plus I don't want my camera footage leaving my house.. That's why I went with Unifi.. everything stays with me and the cameras and notifications are great. The doorbell does seem to get pretty warm though, but other than that, no complaints.
Correction at 6:05. "3D Motion Detection" uses radar from the doorbell to determine a person's position, then overlay their position & path on a satellite image. They don't use satellite imagery to locate people.
Oh okay I really thought they used live tracking satellites to monitor my home, with NORAD subscription fees.
Ultimate Comparison? Not even close! This video should have been titled "Limited 2021 WiFi Video Doorbell Comparison" because it only covers some of the more popular WiFi doorbells but completely omits the family of IP doorbells often considered by true Smart Home consumers - like the Hikvision DS-KV6113, DoorBird, Ring Doorbell Elite, Yoosee KW02 & SD-M5, Axis A8004-VE just to name a few. WiFi Doorbells present a half-assed approach to security. When it comes to Wi-Fi enabled doorbells, jamming is a serious threat. Jamming is a type of cyber security threat that is incredibly easy to create. Wi-Fi jammers are readily available, cost as little as $10 and can even be purchased off Amazon. Any enterprising thief only needs to fire up a jammer to shut down they key part of your main external security. True, POE (wired) doorbells are more of a pain to install but when it comes to the security of my family they're worth it!
Although I am in the market for a video doorbell, I wouldn't touch eufy with a 10ft pole. I purchased the eufy security camera (2C) and found it was absolute junk. Has put me off of any eufy product.
This Is My Favorite Quote Of All Time: You Either Die A Hero Or Live Long Enough To See Yourself Become The Villain. 🦸♂️ or 🦹♂️
The wired Ring doorbells (as well as wired Nest Hello doorbells) are great products. HOWEVER, they don't tell you upfront that these wired doorbells all have an internal non-user-serviceable battery. IF you will be using the doorbell with a mechanical chime, just be aware that at some point, the battery inside will fail.
The internal battery on these units are used to provide temporary voltage to the doorbell unit when a mechanical chime is used. When someone presses the doorbell button, power is temporarily routed away from the doorbell to the chime inside the house. The battery keeps the doorbell powered for the 1-2 seconds while this happens. Over time, this small battery will be unable to deal with the voltage drop and your doorbell will lose power and reboot itself. If you don't rely on a mechanical chime or if you use the Ring wireless chime, than it won't be an issue. If you do use a mechanical chime, depending on your environment (which includes usage rate, weather, temperature, etc.), the doorbell will stop function properly at some point in time. For most users, it seems to be somewhere between 1-3 years.
If you use a battery powered ring that can also be wired up to provide a trickle charge, would you have this same issue?
@@ilyas_khan I'm not sure if Ring has any battery powered products that can be wired to a mechanical door chime. The ones I'm aware of can be charged by the doorbell wiring but do not have the ability to ring a physical chime besides the wireless electronic chime that Ring sells (and this chime is powered by a standard indoor outlet). But in general, you won't have that issue as any supplemental power for a mechanical chime would come from the replaceable and rechargeable battery which is not present in the Ring Pro / Pro2.
I have had Ring Pro for more than a year. Ring Pro has given me some trouble, video recording stops when the button is pressed. It gets disconnected with wi-fi and no more recording. I don't want to buy Ring anymore, stopped subscription. I just ordered Eufy doorbell because I have had a good experience with Eufy smart door lock.
Great video, Reed. I've been thinking about getting a video doorbell for a few months now and this video guide has led me in the right direction. When there are a few top options, that's when the hard part comes in. I'm considering Eufy, Nest, or Ring - but I'll also have to get Hoobs up and running to get it working within myHomeKit setup.
Did you ever get hoobs to work with your Homekit setup?
I have the Eufy battery video doorbell had it for a month, for some reason my battery doesn't stay charge no longer than 3weeks, I'm going to contact Eufy about this what do you suggest.
Which doorbell integrates best with Home Assistant, if any?
I’m using the Unifi G4 doorbell with Home Assistant. It integrates well and you can install it using HACS for the Unifi Protect. I have motion/doorbell alerts, you can get image previews in the notifications and live video feed in the dashboard using RTSP.
Please make a video about smartlocks
Reed, you have a VERY distinct walk. I don't need to see your face to know you're walking to the door. :)
Thank you for this awesome comparison video!
Glad you liked the video. I normally wouldn’t walk looking at the camera but I’m doing it so you can compare video quality of the doorbells. Getting footage of myself standing or walking in front of the doorbells is my least favorite thing.
Bought Nest doorbell 1 year ago and worked great for about 10 months, to include the capturing of approaching individuals from about 20-25 feet; however, it no longer can detect motion unless 5-7 feet away and I contacted tech support; we want through changes in the app and reset the unit; then they sent me replacement unit since within year warranty and the same thing; have to be about 5-7 feet or closer to trigger motion, and they now claim it can be my wifi, which there was no issues during first 10 mos; I saw online others experiencing same thing, and I’m thoroughly disappointed!!! Never again, and will switch to Ring Pro 2
Which I should have bought instead of fecal Nest doorbell
Thank you for putting all this effort into making a great review. I wish you had also covered the Ring Doorview camera and rated cameras by auto-display on Echo Show.
You didn't share with viewers the recording quality options. The night vision quality of my nest doorbell is excellent, I've got the quality set to high. Would have been worth mentioning WiFi compatibility with 2.4 and 5ghz bands
Were you able to get the Eufy to work with Echo Show? Amazon in their infinite wisdom (insert sarcasm here) decided to change all the Eufy cameras to "motion sensor" in the device type. When you go to set up on which Echo devices you want the Eufy doorbell announcement to sound, it shows that "live view" is available along with announcements, but because the Eufy doorbell is set up by default as a motions sensor, Echo does not read it as a camera so there is no live view to be shown. I have seen some people who created a routine for the Echo Show to load up the doorbell, but because it is a routine, it takes much longer and defeats the purpose of having a "smart" doorbell and as added problem, it only shows the image, it does not allow you to talk to the person at the door, which again defeats the purpose of the smart doorbell. Any ideas or suggestions, pretty please?
What makes people choose the Unify g4 over the Eufy?
Reed mentioned it had poor two way audio too!
I’ve got a Eufy but was thinking about getting the G4 for my dads home.
Thanks a bunch!
Eufy has a battery only option whereas Ubiquiti do not.
I have a 9 inch thick brick wall so no real easy way to route a bell cable to the front door. My last eufy battery lasted 6 months....
I would get the g4 in a heartbeat if they offered a battery option
@@ItzD3fW1sH Ahhh! I thought it was battery powered. You’ve helped me immensely. Thanks very much.
I purchased the Wyze doorbell and I am seriously considering replacing it. By the time you get the notification that someone is at your door, they're already gone. 50% - 60% of the times I try to check the live feed, it won't connect to my wi-fi. I have to restart it to get it to function. Worst of all, every day from 2pm until about 5pm, the sun shines directly on the doorbell, it overheats, and doesn't work at all. Wyze, as a company, needs to find a direction. One month they announce that they are coming out with outdoor wireless cameras, next month they've moved on to robot vacuums and the cameras are forgotten. The month after that they move on to fitness watches and the vacuums are forgotten. They need to find one thing that they are really good at and then get really great at it. Don't just half-ass a project then move on.
Great video. Is the Eufy 2 waterproof and will it hold up to summer sun and heat for those that don't have a door over hang?🤔
Been working thru the fl heat with no problem for over a year, even though it has a battery it can still be hardwired.
What about Amcrest?
One of the few which allows RTSP and doesn't need subscription
I am always scared that someone might steal doorbell. Am i the only one worried .?
I don't believe you talked about storage and 24/7 footage support on the nest hello but all in all excellent review, thanks for putting this together!
All of the options are overwhelming!! Trying to find the right choice for my older parents. One that’s easy to operate
Hi Reed, thanks for the video! It's awesome as always. But do you mind adding Arlo and Blink as well? Seems those two brands are also worth to be rated.
Ordered Eufy 2k battery based on your review. Thanks for such an detailed video.
I use a Eufy door bell and like it quite a bit. We also have a Eufy camera at the back door with a severely limited motion detection range so we know when the dog wants to come back inside.
Really good and insightful overview of what is on offer, thanks. However, as a tech novice regarding these devices I was also eager to understand what products required hard wiring or batteries or could handle both options. Thanks again for a great research tool!
I want one that works with my existing mechanical chime. Not negotiable.
The unifi cameras (and doorbell) send motion snapshots to both your phone and apple watch if you have one of those.
Edit: I just got my G4 pro doorbell and it's nice. 30fps playback is so much smoother than my Ring Pro was and image quality in day/night is close enough that I can't really tell much difference. Glad to save $50/year though with no subscription.
I appreciate your mention of the audio quality. For those of us with hearing impairments, even with hearing aids we sometimes cannot understand tiny tinny-sounding audio. It’s especially useful that you play the audio so we can judge it for ourselves. Thank you!
Great comparison review, but for me I would like to see how these work as a doorbell with chime options/costs and also can they automatically pop up on google home or Alexa displays and what features available on the displays. I know its odd and very 'old school', but I don't walk around with my phone in my hand all the time.
Thanks for this video which is perfect timing for me. One thing is consistently left out even from manufacturers are the physical dimensions of the devices. So far I found that Nest Doorbell is the slimmer. Even then, it's an eigth of an inch too wide to be put on the jamb. I really wish they would be slimmer or had a slimmer adapter especially for the angled installation.
Is there a reason the Arlo doorbell was not considered?
I still had it and I was going to include it but it wouldn't power on. 🤷♂️
@@SmartHomeSolver ohhhh dear. That’s not the best sign ever now is it?
I have Arlo Video Doorbell for a year, bad product, terrible customer support. The doorbell shows pixelation video on all recordings. Many people have complained pixelation video on their support forum since Day One with no real resolution. Last year they even change their customer acceptable agreement to try to prevent people doing class action lawsuits on them!
I have the Nest Hello that I got on launch, crazy to think it's still relevant all this time later considering they have only really added one feature since the launch for notifying you when you get a package and when its taken.
Today, 08-23-21, ordered the EUFY 2K BATTERY DOORBELL, based on this review. Thank you for the HEADS UP!
Any thoughts on Arlo doorbell?
Ring doorbell doesn't work with the wires of the house. The Ring Chime doesn't work anymore just out off the box. (Netherlands).
I would not recommend Ring products.
so I am looking for a doorbell product, that allows a schedule to be
programmed, so that when the video doorbell is connect to the internal
mechanical doorbell inside the house, that it ONLY ring the INTERNAL
mechanical doorbell from say 9 am to 11 am, and turn OFF the remaining
hours
and if there is no such product, is there a product that can create a
schedule and ring an add-on product, like some sort of Chime, but only
chime at certain time of the day, program by me, again, say from 9 am to
11 am for e.g.
I am using a ZModo video doorbell. It was less expensive, I get 24 hours of review capability for free, and if I want to save the video I can save it to my IPhone or IPad. I can live view on my TV using Google Chromecast.
I got the Ring first. it never really worked during the 3 months i had it. No alerts etc. Dozens of calls to customer service who sent me 2 warranty replacements-- all the same. I had to reboot the device, the phone, router several times per day just to keep it working. I believe the Ring has issues with certain phones, routers. I got the Eufy 2k and it works great-- same phone, router and location. I wish there were better instructions. But after some time i dialed the motion sensitive very low to stop false alerts. I want an alert to someone on my porch that is all and the Eufy does that. Not saying the Ring is a bad product. But it didnt work at all for me.
You don’t know anything. Try the Logitech doorbell with HomeKit secure video then update your video. And what transformers are you using and resistors?
The eufy doorbell 2k pro is a best buy exclusive and offers 5 day continuous recording. It's wired but might be a sold buy. Have you checked that out?
Woah I've never heard of that Eufy doorbell before! I just looked it up and you're right and it looks pretty good. I'll have to check it out!
@@SmartHomeSolver I just heard of it in a reddit thread. If you do a review don't forget to give me a shout-out. Love the videos! Also miss the inigio Montoya
Woah! This went on sale since last October and is the first time I'm hearing about it, thank you so much! Definitely will think about upgrading my current non-pro Eufy doorbell to that one sometime as the 5 day continuous recording for free as well as the 4x3 format looks like great additions.
I’ve been using a UniFi setup for years for my home network and security cameras, so all I had to add was the doorbell since I had all the other necessary equipment. Only been using the doorbell for a month, but I have no complaints.
I think you need to check your connections in your house for your doorbell and get a more powerful amp because the G4 doorbell that I put in has none of those problems as in no audio delay none of that stuff I went above and beyond the power that it said it's required and it works flawlessly audio quality is very crisp and clear through talking I was so shocked how good it was none of that rattly stuff that you had
Would have liked to see amcrest in this list.
theses were very good but all over $300 in Australia :( alot for a door bell
You know any that are cheap and can integrate into HA?
does the Eufy doorbell you showed in this video work with existing doorbell chime? and do you know if the dual camera Eufy works with it too?
Yessss I literally just rewatched the 2020 video yesterday 😂😂 thanks for making a new one
I have had the google doorbell for years. I few years ago I bought a second Google camera and I always had Nest Aware. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GOOGLE PRODUCT. They doubled the price of Nest Aware, there is no customer service. No body to call. My first Nest doorbell front face peeled so I bought another with no accountability from Google. They are well aware of this problem. I bought a second nest doorbell and it did the same. Why did they spray a clear coat on the face of a doorbell if they knew the clear coat peels?????? Why did they not rather just polish the plastic if they wanted it shiny??? Google is CRAP. RING is much better.
I've watched several of these comparison videos and this is by far the most comprehensive when it comes to practical usage. Thank you - I've decided to blow my cash on the Ring P2, that is if they ever come back in stock.
I own several Eufy cameras and I am regretting it. My door bell seems to only send me a notice only when I walk in front of the damn thing and will not when strangers come to my door. Also sends notifications when it feels like it. What a freaking waste of money.
Would’ve liked to have seen how the Arlo doorbell compares
Nice job. Would have liked to have seen the new Lorex doorbell.
Anything but Skybell. It's complete junk. General Contractor here of 30 years. Our (GREAT) alarm co. installed the Skybells on our own home. The knock out of synch. PLENTY of signal to both units. We even have wi-fi boosters in the home. They're junk. I have a friend with RING and NEVER, EVER has had an issue. Also with Skybell... if someone is at your door and you look at the camera while they are there (if it's someone you don't want to see/talk with) the Skybell does NOT record and incident. So, what's the point? When you get a notification someone is at your door, by the time their app logs you on to see who it is... THEY'RE GONE! Cripes... Amazon BLINK cameras have WAY BETTER software (and sensitively adjustments). With the sun on our front and trees moving, even on the LOWEST sensitivity we're getting notifications every 30 fricken seconds. WHAT is we're away or driving. Does idiot Skybell want us to DISABLE the motion feature of our doorbells until the wind stops? WHAT KIND of security is that? I'll bash these cameras on our business page, website, to clients and anyone that'll listen. Skybell is UNreliable JUNK! Skybell is the saddest joke on the electronic market. SKYBELL = JUNK!!
We had the eufy wired doorbell for a long while and the notifications weren’t showing up on our phones, so we decided to switch to the ring pro. The reason that we got the eufy doorbell is the free cloud storage, but we have a ring spotlight camera right above our ring pro that we bought the ring protect basic plan for
Ive done a lot of research and ended up just going with a $20 kangaroo doorbell and then supplement it by adding a Reolink Argus PT wireless solar powered 1028 HD two way audio and night vision camera. Pan and Tilt, Motion security alerts, alarms etc. Great product for $140. Wireless WiFi connection and powered by a solar panel.
Great video, very informative. What could be added is build quality and ease of installation, although that's a one time thing.
Hey Reed. I have a G4 Pro doorbell and love it. Only issue is that it does come with a chime. Have you got it working with a chime or having it ring on a google nest hub 2?
Hey Zac! I have a digital chime and the G4 doorbell is working with it. I disabled the chime in the Unifi settings so I could have it just announce on the Echos instead. That way I can schedule when they announce for when the baby is sleeping…etc. I just have the doorbell connected with Home Assistant and then I’m using Alexa Media Player to send a routine to announce on the Echos someone is at the door. I haven’t got mine working with my nest hub though.
@@SmartHomeSolver Thanks for the reply. I have both echos and google hubs. How did you get it working on the echos? Did you need home assistant to get it working? I have setup home assistant setup on a raspberry pi 4 but that is all I got too at this point.
It's interesting to see how having a different front door setup (as compared to your 2020 video) seems makes a huge difference in what features become more valuable.
Great video!
You need to have an ease of installation rating as well.
Great review. Really useful. Bought the Eufy after seeing your video last year ! Still very happy with it.
Only thing Indon’t understand is why you recommend the unify g4 when it has such terrible two way audio. Or did I misunderstand this ?
I got one of ebay, pile of garbage.
I was told to change my transformer which I did still didn't work.
I want one with.
Hard wired.
No subscription.
Sd card saves.
My existing ding done must work.
Anyone with any recommendations?
which one does not require me to install an app that was written by the Chinese Government?
