Eufy recently released its smart video doorbell, going up against the likes of Ring and Nest in a competitive market. Where the Eufy Security Wi-Fi 2K video doorbell aims to stand out from the others is on price, with a retail price of $160 compared to $200 and up from other brands. However, right now you can snag one at an even lower price at Amazon when you enter promo code DBEUFY88 during checkout. That takes $50 off, dropping it down to only $109.99.
We've seen Eufy branching into home security before through the EufyCam camera security system. The video doorbell is just another way for you to add some convenience and security to your house. The video doorbell has 2560 x 1920 resolution with HDR and distortion correction, which ensures quality video recordings. With two-way audio, you can hear and speak directly to anyone who approaches your door. The camera uses advanced AI technology and algorithms to detect body shapes and face patterns. The system is designed to be weather-resistant too, so you don't have to worry about it being outdoors and exposed to the elements.
You will get alerts to your phone showing you who is at the door, and you can communicate straight from the phone to let your friends know when you'll be back. There's also an included chime so that you can be alerted to activity at your door even if you are away from your phone. That's an accessory you have to pay extra for with Ring's system. Eufy's doorbell is compatible with Alexa, so you can use your Echo device with a screen to check in on your front door at any time. It also works great with Google Assistant.
