EZVIZ 5G WiFi 5MP Video Doorbell, 176° Ultra-Wide FOV, Human/Vehicle Shape Detection, Sound and Light Alert, Two-Way Talk, Weatherproof, | DB1 Pro

This one the db1 pro 2k camera has to be the best doorbell camera ever. Easy install, very reliable and affordable, works with a typical doorbell although it’s not making noise not sure why. The quality of the video is just amazing! It has pretty good reception for a small device with no antenna. I love all the settings, over all way better than the regular db1. For blue iris password is in the QR code, use a QR reading app.

I picked up an Ezviz doorbell camera and it worked perfectly with my existing wiring for a few months. While it still is getting power from the system it no longer rings the internal ringer. I tried the "fixes" tech support suggested but nothing worked. So rather than waste more time on it I decided to buy their chime. Again, this worked for a short time and basically stopped. I still get the push notification in the app when someone rings the bell but no sound is heard. I tried changing the tone...still nothing. Then I tried turning it off and back on...still nothing. When I turned on person detection it finally chimed. But then a few days later we noticed it wasn't working again. Wifi connection is fine, really there is no reason for this intermittent behavior. I think this is just a bad product. I guess next step is to try a different doorbell cam and get rid of all of this Ezviz stuff. Too bad to since I have several other cameras from Ezviz that have been reliable, so having everything in one app was nice.

Installing this doorbell camera was pretty similar to installing my previous doorbell camera. The only thing that surprised me was that I had to use the two lead wires that came in the box between my existing wiring and the doorbell to get my mechanical chime to work in the house. Before I connected those lead wires, the mechanical chime would not work. Total time to get it installed was 1-2 hours. It would have been a lot faster if I had just used the lead wires first.I have two EZVIZ security cameras outside my house that I'm a big fan of. I get timely notifications from the app and the person detection is pretty good on them. For some reason, on one of the cameras I will sometimes get notifications if it's raining really hard or snowing at night.The other night, it was snowing and the doorbell camera notified me that it had detected a person. The doorbell camera has also notified me for different animals that have walked across my front porch (a squirrel and a cat). It is currently set up to only notify us if a person is detected. If they updated the software so it would stop misidentifying animals and snow as a person, I would give this a 5 star review. This seems to be a problem across multiple EZVIZ devices, but it's one I can live with because of how well they perform aside from that.

Works good when it does works but it glitches a lot. I have an old EZVIZ system that works with DVR and I prefer it because this requires a subscription if you want to record or a SIM card? I don’t have to deal with this with my old system and the subscription is over $40 a month! That’s ridiculous!

easy to set up and it supports 5G...not many doorbells can do that.

Bought this to use the local SD card recording. Sends a call to your mobile phone when doorbell is rung. Hooks up just like a ring to your wiring. Easy operation and so far no issues. Made well.

I already hv five EZVIZ cameras around the home and added this one new doorbell upgrade. I had issues not able to keep the devices appear in my cell app, but I then remembered what was causing problem. I had to scale down the video feed to hi def bcs it was flooding my WiFi extenders and router. These new devices hv a much higher resolution capability. Once I lowered the def setting everything works great now.

The mounting brackets are abominable. The wiring diagrams and instructions are horrible. I cannot get the door bell to ring. I suspect this is just another of the CCP's surveillance cameras in this country.
