What would you consider the best video doorbell for the price, preferably wired. I have an old doorbell now, which is wired. I don’t want to mess around with batteries and receivers if not necessary. I am in doubt between an Arlo, Eufy or Ring.

Seems like Eufy wired one is hard to get (even though it’s on the website). The Arlo is an option, but do you really need the subscription? Ring would be my last option now because of price. But maybe someone has good arguments for the Ring over the others…

    Reolink. Not too expensive, can be run local only, with their cloud or both. PoE or WiFi model available. I had mine for a year and I’m quite happy with it.

    I love my Ubituiti doorbell, but it helped I had the infrastructure already because of other cameras.

    I have Ring. I haven’t tried anything else. Something I like about Ring is each person in the house gets their own app account and can configure their own notification preferences. When I was looking at options 4-5 years ago (when I bought my first Ring) it generally wasn’t clear to me if other systems had this.

    I have an Amcrest AD410. It’s pretty good but slow to connect (20seconds or so) and past few months the notifications have been minutes late. Got my parents a Reolink. It connects slightly faster, but the notifications don’t have a thumbnail.
