There are hundreds of video doorbells on the market, but I think this is the best allrounder.

No subscription required
You don’t have the ongoing cost of a subscription because it can save recordings to a micro SD card. You do have the option of a cloud storage subscription, but it isn’t essential.

Rechargeable battery or wired
It comes with a built-in rechargeable battery, or you can hardwire it.

Alexa and Google Home
It will announce a doorbell press through your smart speaker as well as ring your mobile phone. It also comes with a separate plugin sounder unit.

Ultra-wide View
It has a 180° view, so it covers head to toe and a very large area.

Full-colour night vision
The built-in spotlight enables full-colour recording at night.

AI detection alerts
It uses AI to distinguish between people, pets, vehicles and packages.

Anti-theft alarm
If someone tries to remove the doorbell, it triggers a very loud alarm.

I’ve had mine for 8 months now, and it ticks all the boxes for me, especially the ‘no subscription required’ one. At the time of writing it’s £89.99 at Amazon but the RRP is £119.99
