Kasa Smart Video Doorbell Camera Hardwired w/Chime, 2K Resolution, Always-on Power, Night Vision, 2-Way Audio, Real-Time Notification, Cloud & SD Card Storage, Works w/Alexa & Google Home (KD110)

Replaced Wyse with Kasa and very happy with it
I replaced the Wyze Doorbell camera (1st generation) with this Kasa Doorbell Camera and Kasa is in my opinion a superior product and has better performance.Both doorbell cameras are considered “budget” doorbells, but after owning Wyze for a couple of years now and experiencing very bad performance, I switched to Kasa.1. The Wyze Doorbell had problems connecting to the wifi network even though the router was a few feet away. Also, the Wyze camera would lose power every once in a while for no reason. Not the case with Kasa. Very fast connection and notification to your phone.2. The Kasa doorbell allows you to have a SD card so you can record more than just short events, but rather continuous video. Wyze does not have that option (not sure if the more expensive version does).3. The Kasa doorbell has a person detection for free (and it works well!), Wyze asks you to pay for that extra.4. Kasa was really ready to install but with one annoying thing (hopefully Kasa reads this): the cables that connect the doorbell to your existing wires in the wall are very difficult to tuck in behind the mounting plate. There’s barely any room for them. Maybe create more space back there? Also, a more flexible wedge would be nice, with more viewing angles. Not all homes are the same.5. The Kasa app is very well made, and the option for “do not disturb” schedule is awesome if you have little kids. Wyze has a similar “do not disturb” but it’s not as flexible as the Kasa one.6. Wyze has been entangled with security issues, sharing your videos with strangers. As far as I know, Kasa has a good security protocol.

1 Year in, Detailed review: LOVE it!
I depend on honest detailed reviews when searching. I’ll try to pay it forward here. Bias alert: I have found the Kasa products easy to use and dependable. I have Kasa smart plugs and light bulbs that I bought previously. Made in Vietnam, not China, was a thing for me.First, know what you need and how the device works. I didn’t want to pay a monthly fee for stored video or access, this fits the bill (but cloud storage is available if you wish, I don’t use). Know that you need a wired/powered doorbell location, or add a plug-in power supply (what I did, 18V 500mA Doorbell Adapter, 10$). It needs a micro SD memory card to store footage in the doorbell. Device connects to your wireless Wi-Fi network.Review: I have 2, one for each door. I bought one to try out and went about 3 months of flawless performance and got the 2nd. I’m in over a year now on both. This device at this price has met my need and satisfaction perfectly. My Mother-in-law has a Ring bell, I see no meaningful difference except Ring requires minimum annual subscription to access data, a few more notification options, and an initial higher cost.-The VID QUALITY is great, can be set to higher or lower resolution depending on how much you want to stretch card memory for recording. On your Kasa app (have iPhone) you can zoom in and pan the picture both live and on recordings. Night vision is nice as well. You can set to full 24 hour record, or just movement incidents. I use 24 hr. record on my 256 MB SD card (max size). I get about 3 months of video (mid resolution) before it fills and starts over recording in a loop. Movement incidents are highlighted on the timeline, and files of Motion events are date stamped. App has photo capture and export features. Phone alert settings for motion detection are nice, but are according to how your phone settings deliver alerts.-MOTION DETECTION/SENSITIVITY takes a little tweaking to adjust settings to balance your desire to be bugged every second, or only if the world is ending. There is a setting where you can create an “activity zone” frame to focus on movement areas and ignore parts of the picture. You can set and size adjust area very specifically. I have a tree in one picture frame, but off to the side, I set the zone to ignore that area. Really limits false alarms on windy nights. Primary trigger is light sensitivity, bright headlights can be alerted as motion at night. It happens very rarely for my home. It also has a setting trigger to “sound detection”, but I have that disabled, didn’t see the need.-COMMUNICATION Audio through the device has a slight delay, (1/2-1 second, maybe) but sound is acceptable both in and out. Just remember it’s not an intercom. I have never had a connection problem and in the last year the only time I’ve been disconnected were power outages, no way around that. They include an outlet plug-in doorbell sounder with a few choices for unique chime. I set each to different sound and pick a door close wall to determine front or back.I have no complaints, knew what I was buying, the purpose, and limitations. Outstanding for the price. The only drawback I see is if you want high security, the card is in the doorbell. Rip it off that wall, and there goes your evidence, unless you have added the cloud storage service. Depending on your handiness I suppose you could make the Bell more secure. Hope this helps you make a great choice.

I purchased the Kasa KD110 Video Doorbell spring of 2023. It was a great purchase. I live in Southern Ontario, so the weather ranges from summer hot to winter cold. This device has worked great throughout it all. I had to replace the old typical door bell in our house. I pulled it all out. Ran a new power supply and hooked it all up. The door bell and the chime paired up immediately. Setup door bell using the Kasa app, got it connected to my wifi and was watching everything in front of my house in minutes. Installed a micro sd card and can review everything the camera sees. The image is decent for both daytime and nighttime viewing. The motion detection works well as does the person detection. Have had no issues with connecting to the camera from where ever I may be. The two-way audio works well enough.Would be great if they would add the ability to view the camera from a web browser on my computer.

Me gustó mucho, funciona muy bien comparándolo vs el nest de google me gusta mucho que todo se almacena en la memoría interna, también el adapatador de timbre es muy bueno aunque es una lástima que no vendan por separado ya que necesito más.Lo que no he logrado es que me muestre en la pantalla de Alexa cuando alguien toca el dispositivo, creo que no te notifica de manera automática, pero da igual, para mi propósito con el chime que trae incluído me funciona perfecto.
