“At $159.99, it’s a bit overpriced for a 1080p doorbell camera, but it offers a handful of welcome features, including a 175‑degree vertical field of view, dual‑band Wi‑Fi, person alerts, and package detection (with a subscription).”

“Ecobee’s first doorbell camera is also the first that can stream a live view to your thermostat. Yes, it sounds weird, but trust me — it’s good.”
