Currently, I just have a ring doorbell. I’m looking to upgrade to more cameras, and I like the Alexa integration and easy access through my iPhone, but hate everything else. Charging every 2 months is annoying, and the video is almost always delayed, bad quality, or takes forever to detect motion because I have a brick home and it has poor wifi access.
I’m looking for a very simple system, 1 doorbell, 1 motion floodlight-type camera (will settle for a basic camera and install a floodlight separately) and 1-2 cameras for inside the home, ideally a dome or turret style but this is negotiable. I have a feature wish list though and I can’t seem to find anything close:
- PoE or wired Ethernet NO WIFI (inside cameras negotiable) I definitely don’t ever want to charge a camera again.
- good integration with either Alexa/nest/HomeKit
- 2 way audio on the floodlight cam similar to ring
- cloud/ phone app access to recordings like ring and phone notifications to events like ring
- ideally a security system in the same product line, but not a huge thing tbh
Literally, ring would be exactly what I’m looking for, if they had a floodlight cam with Ethernet. So annoying. I guess I could use an outdoor range extender on that side of the house, but that’s still not ideal.
Any suggestions?
