The Best Smart Video Doorbells 2025

Choosing the right wireless doorbell can significantly enhance the entryway experience and integrate seamlessly into your smart home. Here are our top three picks, ranging from versatile options to premium access control. 

One - UniFi G3 Access Pro: Premium Access Reader & Doorbell

The UniFi G3 Access Pro is more than a doorbell; it’s a high-performance access control device with a 4.7-inch touchscreen and integrated camera. It supports multiple authentication methods, including NFC cards and key fobs, PIN codes, Apple or Google Wallet mobile credentials and the UniFi Identity app. Advanced BLE 4.2 and NFC connectivity work with a built-in proximity sensor for quick, automated authentication. The integrated camera offers a wide 96.67° horizontal and 123.15° vertical field of view, with a microphone and speaker for real-time two-way communication. The device is powered via PoE and is housed in a durable, weather-resistant IP55 enclosure. For premium properties requiring secure entry and a sleek interface, the G3 Access Pro is our top pick.

Benefits: 

• Facial Scanning is the Best we have used - very fast
• Apple and Google Wallet Integration is great 
• Customisable Intercom screen
• Add Infinite Users
• Great Entry Feel for people

Cons:

• Very Difficult Doorbell to Retro-Fit as you need POE (Cat6) 
• IP55 Rating on Doorbell but for use in Australia with our Weather Conditions it should be fine if all seals are installed correctly on connections
• Apple Pay comes with a yearly fee BUT it doesn't need to be used as you can just use the Unifi Identity app which is practically the same functionality, if not better. 
• It does require you to have a Unifi Ecosystem with Unifi Access, and for camera recording will require Unifi Protect, which means you will also need a HDD installed in a Unifi Dream Machine which if you aren't part of the Unifi Ecosystem its not an Ideal Doorbell for yourself.

Two - UniFi G4 Doorbell: Reliable Video Doorbell

Ubiquiti’s UniFi G4 Doorbell is a solid and secure choice that integrates with the UniFi Protect ecosystem. Its 5 MP sensor streams crisp 1600 × 1200 video at 30 frames per second and uses a 138° horizontal field of view with built‑in infrared LED lighting for clear night‑time images. The G4 Doorbell connects over dual‑band Wi‑Fi and features a microphone and speaker for two‑way audio. Weatherproofing is rated to IPX4, making it suitable for outdoor installation. If you already run UniFi Protect, this doorbell offers dependable performance.

Benefits: 

• Best Quality Camera on Doorbell
  
• Flexible Power Options
• Great Feel of a button press

Cons:

• Need Unifi Protect to use, meaning you Need a Unifi UDR or UDM Pro to use
• Doesn't come with internal chime

Three - Aqara G410: Smart Doorbell & Matter Hub

The Aqara G410 combines a 2K doorbell camera with a built-in Zigbee and Matter hub. A high-resolution 175° field-of-view lens captures faces and packages clearly even at night thanks to infrared night vision. Its mmWave radar presence sensor helps distinguish visitors from moving branches or animals, reducing false alerts. An indoor chime-hub with a 95 dB speaker plays default or custom rings and connects via USB-C for flexible placement. Because the G410 also functions as a Matter controller, Aqara Zigbee hub and Thread border router, it can serve as the heart of your smart home. You can install it wirelessly using battery power (up to five months per charge) or hard-wire it for uninterrupted power and 24/7 recording, and it supports both local microSD and optional cloud storage.

Benefits: 

• Price (Under $200)
• Flexible Power Options (Battery or 12V)
• Easy Installation
• Great Adaptable Plate Options for Installation (45 Degree Included)

Cons:

• Integrating with Apple Home using batteries - Found Issues
• On the Aqara App, The Speaker is not loud enough, but on the Apple Home App it is Loud Enough
  

Each doorbell offers unique strengths: the Aqara G410 is a flexible 2K doorbell that doubles as a smart‑home hub; the UniFi G4 Doorbell delivers reliable video and integrates neatly with UniFi Protect; and the UniFi G3 Access Pro provides full-featured access control with multiple unlock methods and a high-quality touchscreen interface. For a luxury experience with robust security and smart-home integration, the UniFi G3 Access Pro stands out.
