Best overall

Ring Battery Doorbell Pro

9.0Our number one pick.

The Battery Doorbell Pro is the best all-round video doorbell, with sharp 1536p HD-plus video, a useful head-to-toe view and radar-based 3D Motion Detection. Recordings need a Ring Protect plan, but the video quality and feature set lead the field.

Video: 9.0Detection: 9.2Power: 8.8Value: 8.6
Pros
  • Sharp 1536p head-to-toe view
  • Radar 3D motion detection
  • Battery or wired
Cons

Best no-subscription

Eufy Video Doorbell E340

8.8A superb runner-up.

The E340 is the pick for subscription-haters, with dual cameras (including a package-watching lower lens), local storage and no monthly fee. It works on battery or wired, and the dual-camera view is genuinely useful.

Video: 8.8Detection: 8.8Power: 8.8Value: 9.2
Pros
  • Dual cameras incl. package view
  • Local storage, no fees
  • Battery or wired
Cons
  • Wi-Fi can be fussy

Best for Google

Google Nest Doorbell (battery)

8.7Rounds out our top three.

Nest's battery doorbell offers the smartest alerts, telling people, packages and animals apart, with a tall aspect ratio great for parcels on the step. Resolution is lower than rivals and full history needs Nest Aware, but the intelligence is excellent.

Video: 8.4Detection: 9.0Power: 8.4Value: 8.4
Pros
  • Smartest object alerts
  • Tall, parcel-friendly view
  • Easy Google Home setup
Cons
  • Lower resolution
  • Best history needs Nest Aware

Best package detection

Eufy Doorbell Dual

8.6A standout in the upper half.

The Doorbell Dual focuses on parcels, with a second downward camera that watches your doorstep and alerts you when packages arrive or leave. It stores locally with no fee; it is battery-only here, so expect occasional recharging.

Pros
  • Dedicated package camera
  • Local storage, no fees
  • Useful delivery alerts
Cons
  • Battery needs recharging

Reolink Video Doorbell PoE

8.5A well-rounded mid-table pick.

For a wired, fee-free setup, the Reolink PoE doorbell delivers sharp 2K video over a single network cable with local storage and reliable performance. It needs PoE wiring, but for a set-and-forget wired doorbell it is excellent value.

Video: 8.8Detection: 8.2Power: 9.0Value: 9.0
Pros

  • Local storage, no fees
  • Rock-solid wired connection
Cons

Ring Video Doorbell (2024)

8.4A dependable pick if the price is right.

The standard 2024 Ring doorbell brings improved 1440p HD video and easy setup to a friendly price, a great entry into the Ring ecosystem. It is battery-powered and, like all Ring cams, needs a plan for recordings.

Video: 8.4Detection: 8.4Power: 8.4Value: 8.8
Pros
  • Improved 1440p video
  • Easy setup
  • Affordable Ring entry
Cons
  • Subscription for clips

Ring Wired Doorbell Plus

8.4Solid, if outshone by pricier rivals.

The Wired Doorbell Plus offers sharp 1536p head-to-toe video with the reliability of constant power, ideal if you have existing doorbell wiring. It still needs a Ring plan for recordings, but never worrying about charging is a real plus.

Pros
  • Always powered
  • Sharp head-to-toe view
  • Reliable
Cons

Best square view

Arlo Essential Doorbell 2

8.3A budget-friendly option worth a look.

The Arlo Essential Doorbell 2 has a square 1:1 view that shows visitors head-to-toe and parcels on the floor, with crisp 2K and easy install. The best features need Arlo Secure, but the camera and app are good.

Video: 8.6Detection: 8.4Power: 8.4Value: 8.4
Pros

  • Crisp 2K
  • Battery or wired

8.2Rounds out our top ten.

The Aqara G4 is the doorbell of choice for Apple HomeKit users, with HomeKit Secure Video support, local storage and flexible battery or wired power. It is 1080p and a bit niche, but for HomeKit homes it is one of the few good options.

Video: 8.2Detection: 8.2Power: 8.4Value: 8.6
Pros

  • Local storage option
  • Battery or wired
