Video Doorbell PoE

Exactly. Never ever answer the door for police. Don’t even speak to them through the door or a window. Get a hard wired (not WiFi) doorbell camera that has an intercom feature. If someone knocks, just use your phone to talk to them via the camera’s speaker and microphone. My personal recommendation

If you’re looking for a low cost, high quality, fully local, cloud free device, the Reolink PoE doorbell is fantastic.

Skip Aqara, that's not even an actual real security camera system, that's a toy (an useless one). Hikvision and Dahua aren't available in your country because your country most likely banned them from federal use for human rights and USA vs China reasons.

Reolink NVR kit is great for the money. The cameras that come with it are good enough so depending where you want to put them may be fine with just the kit but may want to add a duo for a large space of you don't want to mount 2 cameras and run two cables, or have a specific area you want higher res

thier doorbells are wearing out already? glad i got a cheap reolink when my poe ring elite died but if doorbells are gonna keep dropping maybe it's time to crowd fund an open source poe doorbell.

If you want hikvision then buy hikvision, not hilook. Hilook is a watered down version of what Hikvision is. I personally would never buy that crap. But you must know what Hikvision cameras to get of course... Can't get anything, there's cameras and cameras. You want the high end ones. Now, as far a

If you are getting the cheap Hikvision stuff, and you live in a first world country where Reolink is widely available, then yes. Absolutely. Reolink is better at that price point, because of professional models and CX models. Hikvision UI/UX can be a nightmare if you are not familiar with cameras al
