EZVIZ 2K Battery Video Doorbell Camera with Chime No Monthly Fee, Wireless, Rechargeable, 256GB SD Card Supports, Human Detection, Ultra-Wide View, 2.4GHz WiFi, Voice Changer, Alexa Control (DB2)

Wanted a new door bell with video so we looked around and found EZVIZ did one which is wireless and has amazing features. We had already purchased an indoor camera of theirs and find the photos and video quality excellent.I've fitted this new door bell and totally amazed by it's feature, well worth the money with no subscription.

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.

The doorbell itself seems to be really good, but it only gets 4 stars as the set-up via the app is really awkward

The media could not be loaded. 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 EufyWhite and clearly visibleDoesnt sporadically stop working like EufyTamper detection works wellSD card stored in chime not doorbellLots of installation optionsCheap solar charger availablrCONS..Bulky compared to competitorsVery poor instructionsRidiculously small screws (Which you WILL lose)App registration nothing like as intuiayive as with other EZVIZ CamerasNight vision not as good as EufyWon't send movement alerts to AlexaChime is far too quietChime struggles to maintain a connection if more than a metre from the doorbell (this will be a deal breaker for most people).UpdatedSo after a couple of weeks use this turned out to be no better than the Eufy one it was replacing.Updated:ReturnedDespite 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.

The media could not be loaded. Great cameras, easy set up. easy to download or view.. I have recommended these cameras to so many people who have gone on to buy them, I should be getting commission from EzvizOr I should have just brought 30 of them on Prime day and sold them..From having one standalone camera to a system of 8 cameras. These cameras tick every box.Apart from the excellent picture and sound. the two way talk and alarm is very good.The all-important connection is fast.I use a 64GB memory card for continued recording and get over a week of recording, a 128GB with give nearly 3 weeks.If you set it to only record motion, then you’ll have months of recording.Be careful of buying second hand, Once these cameras are registered and set up to your account, They CAN NOT be added to another account unless the original account deletes it, You can share it with friends or family, but that is done via the App.This is to makes the cameras useless to anyone else if stolen.These cameras have more features than you’ll ever need or use. But means you can set each one to your personal requirements.Apart from turning on and off alerts, you can tailor them to the time and day you want them.I’ve had one camera vandalised and smashed (along with two other cameras) and my only gripe would be the inferred was a bit too bright when a face is up close at night. But a strong little camera took the beating and recorded it all (unlike one of the others that went in to shock and stopped recording before being hit..)Will try and upload the clip here.
