2K Wireless Video Doorbell, Human/PIR Motion Detection, 176° Ultra-Wide View, H.265, 5200mAh Battery, IP65 Weatherproof, No Monthly Fee, Local/Cloud Storage for Door Security, With Chime (DB2)

UPDATED 15/1/23: I fitted our new DB2 doorbell a few weeks ago. Executive summary is that the device is well designed and good value, but certain installation scenarios are problematic and the Android app is was buggy at first, but support identified and fixed the problem I was seeing. In more detail: One of the reasons I decided on this model was inclusion of the inclined mounting plates. However, the supplied screws are not long enough to fix these plates, and finding others that were both long enough and with a small enough head was not easy. Eventually found some at Screwfix. Note that I contacted EZVIZ Support about this and they were hopeless and failed to understand the issue. The design of the device, with the wireless chime and local storage is very good - I'm not in favour of paying subscriptions for cloud storage so this is perfect. Once installed it worked well enough. The picture is sharp although, in my situation, daytime callers are backlit and their faces are quite dark. The app was where the problem lay. I have installed it on my Android 13 phone and have disabled battery optimisation for the app as recommended. The app works well enough but then, every day or 2, push notifications stopped working. The only way to get them working again was to force stop the app and start it again. The same issue affected my wife's Android 13 phone as well. Reading the reviews for the app in the Google Play store, other people are also getting the same problem. I reported this to EZVIZ Support. It took a couple of weeks and some toing and froing, but they ultimately made a fix and it has worked perfectly since then. Taking everything into consideration, a 5* product.

Works as it should

Updated from original 3 star review.. I already have 7 ezviz cameras so when I was looking to replace my troublesome Eufy S220 this seemed like an obvious choice to keep all my cams in the same app.. But this doorbell is clearly not upto EZVIZ's normal high standards.. PROS.. Good image quality . Doesnt send me ghost calls at 2 am like Eufy White and clearly visible Doesnt sporadically stop working like Eufy Tamper detection works well SD card stored in chime not doorbell Lots of installation options Cheap solar charger availablr CONS.. Bulky compared to competitors Very poor instructions Ridiculously small screws (Which you WILL lose) App registration nothing like as intuiayive as with other EZVIZ Cameras Night vision not as good as Eufy Won't send movement alerts to Alexa Chime is far too quiet Chime struggles to maintain a connection if more than a metre from the doorbell (this will be a deal breaker for most people). Updated So after a couple of weeks use this turned out to be no better than the Eufy one it was replacing. Updated: Returned Despite the doorbell chime having its own dedicated mesh node responding to a bell press took so long the person was leaving and then I couldn't hear or talk to them anyway. EZVIZ needs to take a long look at themselves for releasing this junk. I've replaced this with a normal doorbell and an EzViz cam which doesn't have these same connection problems and allows me to communicate with anyone at the door.

It took me about two days to set up, but did manage to get it up and running. It is quite a bulky unit and only just fitted onto the door frame. So far it is working well . I get good daylight picture of people approaching the house . Some of the night time views are blurred due to back ground lights. I have not been able to screw it into the frame , and so far I have not managed to work out how to activate the anti tamper alarm. I had to buy an new extension for the chime as it was too big to fit in the hall to pick up a wi fi signal . So far it is doing what I wanted it to.

I chose EZVIZ as I already had some of their cameras and I like the fact that I can have them all under one storage subscription. This doorbell is very easy to use, although can be a little glitchy sometimes. The camera video quality is very good although the talkback feature when people ring the doorbell can take a while to load which can be frustrating if there is someone at the door and you aren’t home. It does run solely off WiFi so if your internet connection isn’t the best or if your WiFi goes down a lot then be prepared to not have a working doorbell. I like the chime options and overall I am happy with my purchase.

C'est la première fois que j'achète une sonnette avec caméra. Ma porte d'entrée étant au sous-sol, c'est très pratique. Il faut apprendre à programmer ce genre de bidule mais un coup qu'on sait, ça se fait bien. J'ai remarqué que parfois il se déconnecte du wi-fi sans savoir pourquoi. Il faut refaire l'opération du début, mais il garde en mémoire les paramètres. Alors il vaut mieux garder le code QR pas trop loin en tout temps. Et à distance, ça fonctionne bien.

Purchased this a couple of months ago to catch a light night doorbell ringer. Mission accomplished! Took the video down the street to the offender's house and showed his Dad, you should have seen the look on his face. Not a happy man. I didn't want something I had to have a subscription to. This has a micro-SD card slot in the inside ringer that records video when triggered. Works great. Battery life is decent, over 2 months on one charge. No hassle recharging. I give it two thumbs up!

Ezviz needs to add the POE or ethernet connection option for this Doorbell and their Floodlight. Both of those products of EZVIZ are horrible in maintaining stable wifi connection even with a chime added or I have the Mesh Deco Wireless Router literally inside the Garage. It shows all wifi bars and good Connection on EZVIZ App yet, it would show unstable while viewing video.
