Snapshots and videos from these recordings can be taken during playback and they are saved to your phone’s camera roll. The doorbell camera section of the app is nicely presented with a clear timeline of the current and previous days’ recorded events from the doorbell’s wide-angle camera, along with easy access to key functions, such as viewing the live feed, viewing all past recordings, mute the ring chime and easily view how much battery remains on the doorbell.Įlsewhere in the app, you can view live camera feeds, and view past saved recordings that are all presented clearly in both tile and timeline display format. There are plenty of options to tailor the DB2 to your own home conditions and how you want the doorbell to work best for you.
Once the indoor chime is plugged in and synced up to the doorbell outside, I then turned my attention to its mobile app, which is where most of the interactions will occur when motion has been detected, and most of all, whenever the ring button has been pressed.įrom the EZVIZ app, you can create an account, browse and configure the doorbell’s many settings, to connecting the doorbell to your home Wi-Fi network, sign-up to its online CloudPlay service, choose from the many doorbell chimes and alter the sensitivity of motion detections to adjusting its day and night time recording quality. EZVIZ also has their CloudPlay service, for unlimited online storage space, which can offer an additional layer of data protection. This makes the whole setup a little more secure and flexible because the storage is not stored in the body of the doorbell, which could get damaged or stolen. This small plug-in chime also acts as the local storage for captured videos, with its microSD card slot that can support up to 256GB of storage.
With the doorbell fixed to the wall, I then had to find a suitable wall socket, that was within 4 metres of the doorbell and plug in the indoor chime. Both mounts require screwing them onto the wall, so I chose to go apply the adhesive strip onto the main mounting plate that the doorbell then slides onto. There’s the main base plate itself, and you can choose to tilt the camera vertically or pan the camera to the side by attaching the base to one of the two optional angled mounting plates. On the inner side, there is the option to fit a wired doorbell connection to the DB2, otherwise, you can use its built-in 5,200mAh battery that EZVIZ claims to last up to 115 days, with 5 mins of use per day, which is pretty good going I think. On the right side of the doorbell, you’ll find the USB charging port, which is also weatherproofed by a removable rubber cover. There’s some subtle EZVIZ logo branding in the middle, and at the bottom, there is a large ring button, with a clear illustrated bell icon. It measures 150 mm tall x 58 mm wide x 32 mm deep, and the majority of the casing is white in colour, with a glossy black circular section at the top that surrounds both the camera and PIR sensor. At first glance, it can seem quite thick and chunky, but comparing it to the previous doorbell I reviewed, there isn’t that much difference between them. There’s a USB-A to Micro-USB charging cable, connecting wires, screws and wire clips for an optional wired doorbell install, and finally, there’s a small screwdriver to help with the installation if you do not have one already.
