Smart doorbell. Which one should I buy?

If you have a smart doorbell would you recommend it? I'm looking mainly at ones that don't require a subscription. Would like one that's easy to set up, is battery powered, and has good quality recording. Thanks in advance

Have a eufy - no subscription
works well - links to Alexa to announce the door or can buy a chime

Check it works with your WiFi router... They are normally on a 2.4 or 5 GHz frequency. Your WiFi settings will tell you what yours is

I have a eufy bi subscription just use an SD card. Notifications when the battery is low, charges quickly and imagine quality is crystal clear.
plus I’m sure it’s got a Black Friday discount just now.

Another vote for Eufy

I have a Tapo - I wouldn't recommend one of those!

I had a similar setup headache until I switched everything over to Vivint, since their pro install and monitoring saved me a ton of time. I liked being able to mix security gear with my lights and thermostat so it all worked from one app. If you want an easy way to keep things synced without doing the techy stuff yourself, that setup worked out well for me.
