    I know Ubiquiti products are expensive, but $700+ for a video doorbell is crazy…

    • Crazy pricing for home equipment. Personally don't see the value at all.

      • +1

        100%

        • -1

          Exactly
          This is almost a scam

    • +1

      No, crazy is when you buy it for $700. They can setup price to a million bucks, it doesnt cost them anything to set the price. It's only when you actually PAY it becomes crazy.

    • What cost of living crisis?

  • +7

    Even if you're in the Unifi Protect ecosystem, I can't see any reason this would be worth it over the Reolink PoE Doorbell. I swapped over all my Unifi Protect gear to Reolink, and am overall very happy.

    The only thing I'm missing, is images/previews attached to my phone's push notifications. I think you can pay a subscription for this feature alone, if needed. There's probably also some free hacky-ways to do this, but given the Reolink records everything anyway, it's not much of an issue for me.

    • +4

      I'm absolutely with you on this one. $700 is absolutely nuts for similar functionality to a $140 device, even less when it's on special. If the package camera is so important, get another Reolink doorbell camera mounted at a lower level and you're still $400 ahead.

    • I've been eyeing off the Reolink gear. Is it any good?

      • +1

        Reolink's doorbell camera is widely regarded as one of the best options available, and it also happens to be one of the cheapest, occasionally dropping to around $100.

        • I think I'll grab one next time I see it on here.

      • In terms of "camera quality", there's quite a bit of variability given the various series and resolution cameras they have. Do some research on this before buying.
        More generally though…

        Pros:
        * Price (unbeatable at their price point, imo. Especially when deals pop up, or if you buy refurbished.)
        * Easy setup (whether wireless or PoE, everything works pretty seamlessly.)
        * Good-to-OK app and support (there's a good community surrounding Reolink, and their mobile app's work without many issues.)
        * Options (they have such a large range of products, you're pretty likely to find whatever you're looking for.)

        Cons:
        * Flexibility (you're tied into Reolinks apps and support. I'm not sure if you could utilise the cameras with Blue Iris, for example.)
        * Resale (I can't imagine the resale value on Reolink great, as it's quite cheap to buy new with full warranty. YMMV.)

        • +3

          regarding flexibility, you can absolutely you Reolink PoE cameras with ONVIF support with other DVRs such as Blue Iris or Synology.

        • +1

          I've got my Reolink PoE doorbell recording in BlueIris fine.

    • Do you mean Reolink works within UniFi? Insane price aside, this is a completely different ecosystem?

      • +1

        Pretty sure what he meant was that even those with enough Unifi gear that can easily deploy Ubiquiti cameras would be better off just ignoring that capability and using Reolink cameras instead. Performance is about the same if not better, and you'll save a bucket-load of cash.

        Ubiquiti make great networking gear that can almost justify their premium prices, but their camera range doesn't even come close.

        Yes, it's a totally different ecosystem.

    • The Reolink doesn't have a package camera whereas this does. Still doesn't justify the price with Eufy having that for half the price.

    • +1

      This isn't cloud based storage, it's local. The notifications probably don't take the scenic route either, so they might actually notify you before the delivery driver leaves… And at least you're not trusting your recorded footage to a Chinese company storing it in some undisclosed location.

      The UniFi ecosystem also adds advanced permissions and the device is actually secured (unlike pretty much all other IoT devices including doorbells), but that still doesn't justify that sort of price. Should be about $400 IMHO.

      • @Nukkels Reolink doesn't do cloud storage either - at least, not by default, although it is a option if you want to use the service they offer.

        You have a wide variety of local storage options, and even the standard Reolink NVR works perfectly well behind a firewall and has been thoroughly tested to ensure it doesn't ever 'phone home.'

      • I get instant notifications on my phone and through my HomePods every single time with this doorbell never skipped a beat.

    • I bring my Reolink camera's into Apple Homekit via Scrypted and get push notifications on my iPhone and Apple Watch with a screenshot if motion is detected.

    • -1

      Only concern is their connection to the CCP

  • +1

    The only thing "Pro" about this is the ridiculous price.

    • -1

      It is genuinely a PRO for the company in scamming you.

  • +1

    Like many things Ubiquiti (and I have a lot of them) people pay for the "all behind the 1 glass pane" . I just can't see myself buying a $700 doorbell though. I bought an Aqara G4 which is perfectly good for my needs. While their Unifi Dashboard is fantastic and its functionality the amount of money I have spent on Unifi gear is STUPIDLY high (probably over $2.5K in current use) and realistically I doubt it provides wifi that is 10x better than the nearest high end router which is 10x cheaper. I am down the rabbit hole now though

  • +1

    Sure it’s expensive but mine hasn’t skipped a beat in 9 months to far. Love this thing and have zero regrets.

    I think I paid about $900 (doorbell plus poe adapter) now that is crazy!

    Ubiquiti probably isn’t for OzBargain.

    • +2

      Ubiquiti/Unifi is absolutely for Ozbargain - deals are very common here.

      Many people have got home networks full of their equipment. I have a UDM SE, multiple switches and many WAPs as an example.

      This doorbell is very, very overpriced.

      • +1

        I have a Ubiquiti router and access points too, but they're good value components. I know better than to buy their cameras, which even at 'bargain' prices are overpriced.

    • I have been wanting to ask an owner, is your house west facing? How does it fare in the afternoon sun?

      My Logitech Circle View Doorbell overheats between 4-6pm so I am looking at the UniFi PoE as a replacement.

      I’m actually getting CAT6 wired to the doorbell next week in preparation for whatever I buy next.

      • Front door faces south under a little pergola so no direct sun really.

  • Damn I paid a bomb for this doorbell.

  • +1

    Damm I paid $680 from Amazon Germany and just received it last week.

    • Returns are easy

    • Looks like Amazon Germany is currently the cheapest. Any complaints with yours? How long was delivery?

  • As mentioned before, Reolink is the way to go for a little over $100 on special. In my mind the best value doorbell on the market for what it offers.

  • +2

    Was actually on my shopping list for some time, thanks! Apparently has great integration support for HomeKit via homebridge. Expensive but looks sleek and nice to add value to home street appeal.

    • Wow

    • Definitely misinformation to say it’s abandonware. This model posted is actually a new hardware revision only released a few months ago with hardware changes. The original didn’t natively support POE as it didn’t have an Ethernet jack but USBC instead and required an adapter, this new model they replaced USBC for Ethernet.
