WiFi Video Doorbell with Chime – Night Vision and Two-Way Audio

This WiFi video doorbell is a two-part set: a white camera unit with a call button for outside the door, and a separate chime that sounds indoors. When a visitor presses the button, the chime rings and your phone lets you see who is there and talk to them. Easy Life Markets sells it in white as one doorbell unit with one indoor chime.

A smart doorbell does two things an ordinary bell cannot. It shows you the caller before you open the door, and it lets you answer when you are upstairs, in the garden or away from home. The supplier describes this one as needing no complicated wiring, which is why sets like this are popular with renters and with anyone who does not want to run cable to the door frame.

What Is in the Box

1 × outdoor doorbell unit with camera and call button
1 × indoor chime receiver

What the Supplier Does Not State

Several things a careful buyer would want to know are missing from the supplier's data. We list them so you can decide with open eyes.

Video resolution. Not stated.
Power. The listing says no complicated wiring, which points to a rechargeable or battery-powered door unit, but the battery type, capacity and time between charges are not given. How the chime is powered is not stated either.
WiFi band. Not stated. Many doorbells of this kind use 2.4 GHz only, so make sure that band is switched on at your router.
App. The app's name is not given in the listing.
Storage. Recorded clips are mentioned, but the listing does not say whether they are kept on a memory card or in a cloud service, or whether any service carries a fee.
Weather rating. The unit is made to go outside a door, but no water or dust rating is listed. Fit it under a porch or other cover where you can.
Viewing angle and dimensions. Not stated.

If any of these is a deciding point, tell us and we will ask the supplier before you buy.

Before You Buy: Three Checks

WiFi at the door. Stand outside your front door with your phone on WiFi and the door shut. If the signal is weak there, a video doorbell will be slow to connect or will drop calls. A WiFi extender near the door usually solves it.
Where the unit will go. Choose a spot beside the door at about chest height, facing the path a visitor walks up, and out of direct rain if possible.
Where the chime will go. It needs to be within range of the door unit and somewhere you will hear it.

Setting It Up

Charge or power the door unit as described in the manual.
Install the app named in the manual on your phone and create your own account.
Add the doorbell in the app while standing near your router, and enter your WiFi password when asked.
Pair the indoor chime with the door unit if it is not already paired.
Press the button to test. Check that the chime rings and that the call comes through to your phone.
Carry the unit to the door and test again before fixing it in place.
Mount it, then allow the app's notifications in your phone settings so calls are not silenced.

Getting Good Results

Angle the camera so a caller's face is in the middle of the picture, not just the top of a head.
Avoid facing it straight into a low sun or a bright street lamp.
If approach snapshots go off too often, point the unit away from a busy pavement or road.
Wipe the lens now and then. Dust and rain marks blur the night picture first.
Keep the app updated and use a strong password on the account.

Use It Considerately

A doorbell camera should cover your own doorstep. Try not to take in a neighbour's door, windows or garden. Rules on recording in shared hallways and public spaces differ from place to place, so check what applies where you live, and tell other people in the household that the doorbell records.

Who It Suits

Households that want to screen callers before opening the door, people who miss deliveries because they cannot hear the bell, renters who cannot fit a wired system, and anyone caring for a relative who should not answer the door to strangers.
