Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+ (black, Sync Module Core kit)
Battery doorbell with a head-to-toe view
The current kit pairs a battery-powered 2K+ doorbell with Sync Module Core. Head-to-toe video and two-way audio suit checking visitors and deliveries from the Blink app.
Before you choose
This replaces the first-generation Blink shown in the earlier video. Confirm subscription and recording-storage requirements; this is the black System kit with a module, not the add-on or wired model.

Ring Battery Doorbell Plus
Rechargeable battery convenience
Offers a removable rechargeable battery and a taller head-to-toe camera view. This makes it worth considering when reaching a fixed charging port would be inconvenient.
Before you choose
Saved video and some detection features require a paid plan. Confirm current US plan details and any wiring requirements before buying.

Google Nest Doorbell (wired, 2nd gen)
A wired Google Home setup
