A tall aspect ratio shows the parcel on the step, not just the face · review
Reolink uses a square 1:1 sensor rather than a widescreen one, so the frame is as tall as it is wide and shows a caller head to toe with the step included. Local storage to 256 GB, with no subscription required.
The conclusion The right shape of image, with local storage and no plan. The square frame is the reason to choose it.
Nearly every camera you own is widescreen, because nearly every camera is pointed at a landscape. A doorstep is not a landscape. It is a person standing vertically with something on the ground at their feet.
A square sensor spends its pixels on the height of the scene rather than on the wall either side. The result covers a caller from above the head to below the knees, with the step in frame — which is where the parcel is. Reolink also states person, vehicle and package detection.
It looks strange the first time on a phone. It shows the thing you bought a doorbell to see.
Reolink states a microSD card of up to 256 GB. That is the entire recording system if you want it to be, with no monthly cost; a Reolink Home Hub, sold separately, extends the storage. The Ring Battery Video Doorbell 2K keeps its videos behind a Ring Home plan. Other doorbells here take a larger card: the Tapo D235 and the second-generation Reolink Video Doorbell B accept up to 512 GB.
A front door is usually the furthest point from a router and the 2.4 GHz band there is shared with the whole street. Having 5 GHz available where it reaches is worth more on a doorbell than on almost any other device in this catalog.
Anyone whose doorstep receives parcels, and anyone who does not want a recurring bill.

Because a doorstep is a vertical scene. A widescreen sensor spends its pixels on the wall either side of a caller and cuts off the step at their feet; a 1:1 frame covers from above the head to below the knees. It looks unusual on a phone and it shows the thing you actually wanted to see.
No. Reolink states local storage to 256 GB on a card, which is the whole recording system if you want it to be. The cloud is optional rather than required, and that is the structural difference against the Ring in the same hub.
Yes, and it is uncommon. A front door is often the furthest point in a house from the router, and the 2.4 GHz band there is shared with every neighbor. Being able to take 5 GHz where it reaches, and 2.4 GHz where it does not, is worth more than a megapixel.

| Model | Price | Resolution | Aspect ratio |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reolink Video Doorbell (Battery) | $120 | 2K, 4 MP, stated by Reolink | 1:1, head to toe |
| Ring 53-033551 Battery Doorbell, Head-to-Toe video | $100 | NOT PUBLISHED. No megapixel figure, no 2K, no 4K, no pixel dimensions anywhere in the seven bullets. Every other doorbell on this shelf states 2K or 4K, and the maker's own Retinal 2K wired model costs forty dollars against ninety-nine here | Not published as a ratio. The 66 per cent figure and the Head-to-Toe name are what is offered instead |
| eufy Security E8214 Video Doorbell E340 kit with chime, dual cameras, 8 GB local storage | $150 | 2K full HD, stated. Two doorbells on this shelf claim 4K and three claim 2K | Not published as a ratio or an angle — the two cameras are the answer instead, and the downward one is described by what it covers rather than by degrees |
| Ring 53-102777 Battery Doorbell 4K Pro with Quick Release Ultra Battery Pack | $150 | Retinal 4K, stated — tied highest on this shelf, with two doorbells here at 4K and three at 2K. What 4K buys on a doorbell is the zoom: more pixels to crop into rather than a sharper view of a face two feet away | NOT PUBLISHED. "Wide-angle video" is the whole statement — no ratio, no field of view in degrees, and no head-to-toe claim. This shelf's tag reads: a tall aspect ratio shows the parcel on the step, not just the face. Three doorbells here answer that with a figure or a mechanism; this is not one of them |

2.5K 5MP · 166° wide · night vision · two-way audio with voice change · chime included
A 5 MP doorbell on a 166° lens with a chime in the box and a voice changer on the two-way audio. BOIFUN states human detection and Alexa compatibility through its own skill.
Best for: A house where the doorbell must be audible indoors without buying a separate chime.
2K 4MP · 150°×150°×180° 1:1 view · HDR · local person, vehicle, pet and parcel detection · dual-band
The second-generation battery doorbell: the same square head-to-toe frame with HDR added, and detection that Reolink states runs locally on the device rather than in a cloud service.
Best for: A bright doorway where a caller is backlit, and an owner who wants nothing leaving the house.
2K · 6× zoom · quick-release charging · two-way audio · Ring ecosystem
Ring's current battery doorbell at 2K, with a stated six-times zoom for reading detail at distance and a built-in battery charged over USB-C once the doorbell is released with the supplied tool. Recording requires a Ring Home plan.
Best for: A household already on Ring, where the doorbell should share the alarm and cameras' app.
