Let's Chime into The World of Affordable Smart Doorbells!
Call me old-fashioned, but as a longtime repairman, I am still stunned every time I install a smart doorbell. I mean, a doorbell that connects to your phone, and has a camera? Wizardry, I tell ya. But, are there affordable smart doorbells available out there in the market? Well, my tech-savvy DIY’ers, you bet your toolbox there are!
Amenities of a Smart Doorbell without Burning a Hole in Your Pocket
Before we dive into this magical world of cost-effective smart doorbells, you might be asking yourself, ‘Well, Mr. Repairman, why do I need a smart doorbell?’ These nifty devices not only alert you when someone's at your door but also let you see, talk, even record them, all through your smartphone. Total game-changer, right? And while some of these high-end smart doorbells could cost you an arm and a socket wrench, I’m here to tell you that you don’t necessarily have to break your piggy bank to get one.
Ring Video Doorbell – The Budget Queen
First on our list is the Ring Video Doorbell. This is essentially the little sibling of the popular Ring Video Doorbell 2, but don’t let its affordability fool you. It comes with 720p HD video recording, mobile alerts, and offers night vision – so you can see who’s knocking even in the dead of night. Brace yourselves for the price – you can get your hands on it for less than $100!
Wyze’s Video Doorbell – The Feature Galore
Next up, we’ve got Wyze's Video Doorbell. For just south of $50, you get a doorbell with full 1080p video, two-way audio, and pre-recorded message options, which basically acts as your very own robotic doorman (minus the tip!). Plus, its sleek minimalist design adds a nifty tech touch to your front door without looking like an alien device.
Xiaomi Zero AI Face Identification – The Technophile’s Delight
For my fellow tech enthusiasts, here’s a real treat: the Xiaomi Zero AI Face Identification. A slightly longer name, but a lot more features. Apart from standard HD video, this doorbell offers intelligent doorbell guard function, motion detection, and IR night vision. The most jaw-dropping feature is its AI face identification. This gadgetry will cost you something in the ballpark of $60.
Remo+ RemoBell S Video Doorbell – The Marvel of Customizability
Last, but certainly not the least, is the Remo+ RemoBell S. If you’re after getting the maximum bang for your buck, this is your go-to guy. Besides the standard features, this doorbell offers adjustable motion zones and free rolling 3-day cloud storage. All these come in under $100, making it a dream for every DIY enthusiast.
Be Your Own Handyman with Affordable Smart Doorbells
Now that I’ve given you the lowdown on some affordable smart bells, remember, all doorbells are not created equal. Choose one that matters most to you whether it's HD video, two-way audio or smart home compatibility. Installation is generally simple – perfect for you handy DIY’ers, and if you find yourself in a bind, remember I’ve always got your back!
And today's moral of the story is, affording a smart doorbell doesn’t mean having to sell off your screwdriver collection. With these cost-effective options, you can get that futuristic feel and added home security without emptying your wallet.
So Long Cupboard Crawlers!
So, don’t get stuck in the past, my fellow toolbox titans. Affordability is the name of the game in the smart doorbell market. These contraptions are no longer the trinkets of the wealthy, and I have a sneaking suspicion that gone are the days of regular ding-dongs. Now, are you ready to knock on the door of the future?
