'ZDNET Recommends': What exactly does it mean?
ZDNET's recommendations are based on many hours of testing, research, and comparison shopping. We gather data from the best available sources, including vendor and retailer listings as well as other relevant and independent reviews sites. And we pore over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the products and services we’re assessing.
When you click through from our site to a retailer and buy a product or service, we may earn affiliate commissions. This helps support our work, but does not affect what we cover or how, and it does not affect the price you pay. Neither ZDNET nor the author are compensated for these independent reviews. Indeed, we follow strict guidelines that ensure our editorial content is never influenced by advertisers.
ZDNET's editorial team writes on behalf of you, our reader. Our goal is to deliver the most accurate information and the most knowledgeable advice possible in order to help you make smarter buying decisions on tech gear and a wide array of products and services. Our editors thoroughly review and fact-check every article to ensure that our content meets the highest standards. If we have made an error or published misleading information, we will correct or clarify the article. If you see inaccuracies in our content, please report the mistake via this form.
Forget your Ring subscription: Eufy Video Doorbell and HomeBase are $100 off
Eufy Security Video Doorbell Dual Camera.
The Eufy Dual Camera Video Doorbell is a completely wireless, battery-operated smart doorbell that features not one but two cameras; a 2K camera that captures everyone and everything coming to your door, and a Porch View Camera that's angled downward, so you can see anything on your stoop, like deliveries, before you even get home.
On top of 2K HD video, this video doorbell features two-way audio, night vision, and human detection, and is compatible with Alexa and Google Assistant. But the biggest plus of this video doorbell is that you don't have to pay for a monthly subscription to use it. The footage is stored locally in the HomeBase, so you can avoid having to pay recurrent fees.

The HomeBase 2, which is included with the dual-cam doorbell in this deal, works as a chime, since this doorbell is battery-operated and can't work with your existing chime. But it also acts as a hub for any other Eufy Security products you add down the line, as the alarm for your security system, and as 16GB of local storage.
I've had a single-camera Eufy Security video doorbell and HomeBase 2 for the better part of a year now and so far I have zero complaints about the company's devices. The video doorbell is always responsive to motion and quick to alert our phones in real time, and as the main hub for our home security system, the HomeBase 2 hasn't let us down once.
At $160, this is the lowest price we've ever seen on this bundle of Eufy's dual-cam doorbell and HomeBase 2, and it's such a good deal that I'd snag it myself if I didn't already have a video doorbell.
