Today investing in a video doorbell is the most important smart home device you can have. Even though smart light bulbs are flashy however having them properly integrated could be the best thing that you ever invest in and something you can't live without.

Video Doorbells are your eyes outside your home.

With a combination of a camera, microphone, and speaker works a straightforward doorbell. Some link to your current wiring and some operate with the chime of your building, some have battery power options to run off and need a wireless chime. Your doorbell recordings are broadcast back to your tablet or phone with audio and video, and how much they capture and stream depends on power. For example, battery-operated doorbells can't stream continuously; they'll lose power too rapidly.

The video doorbell will notice and warn you when someone is approaching your door. At that point, you can begin watching the stream. And if the doorbell rings, like an intercom, you can talk with them.

Video doorbells serve as a bridge to the outside world thanks to their location. You can see and communicate with the world outside your front door with a video doorbell, even when you are not home.

This works whenever you are whether you are home, in an office, or overseas. And before they ring the bell, you can see who is at your entrance. To decide who rang the bell and whether you should respond, you won't need to silently move to the peephole.

You can always see who's there if you're not home and even talk to them. You can even unlock the door remotely with a smart lock and let your guests into your home. Some doorbells provide facial recognition, such as Nest Hello and Wisenet Smartcam, so you'll understand when family or friends arrive.

Sometimes if not most of the time even when you are just sitting at home all day, you will discover that somebody left a package for you on your porch without even ringing the doorbell. Video doorbells also fix the problem, as they alert you when a person is at the door, regardless of whether the doorbell is ringing or not. That's also a useful safety feature.

Your phone and tablet do offer similar features, but getting to them is still slower and more inconvenient. The video will already be playing on your Nest Hub devices before you can take your phone out, unlock it, and open the Nest app. There's even an easy choice for you to start talking to whoever is at your door. Nothing comes close to how smooth it is, quite frankly. The best example that we can offer is to imagine having a magical ability to open the door every time within two seconds of ringing your doorbell.

Video Doorbells Serve as Cameras for Surveillance

The first item on your checklist could be security cameras if you want protection for your home. But maybe you'd like to first consider a video doorbell. The majority of surveillance cameras come with separate downsides. Some are for indoor use only, which implies taking steps through a window to make them work. To provide power, others need a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet. And cameras powered by batteries can't record continuously. Wired cameras in your house include running cables and drilling holes. 

A video doorbell perfectly negates most of those concerns, if not all of them. For one it's already outside. And you can have electricity without the need for a GFCI outlet or running cables and drilling holes in your house's doorbell wiring works. And the Nest Hello is not only limited to motion sensor recordings, it can provide continuous 24/7 recording with a subscription.

In addition to protection, the microphone and speakers built into video doorbells add comfort. You don't have to if you're not sure about answering the door. Instead, you can chat from the comfort of your home with the individual at your doorstep. 

Of course, criminals who might be tempted to snatch packages from your porch are beginning to recognize on sight video doorbells, and so they serve as a disincentive.
