All, I thought I would post a few experiences with my Doorbird D202.
Likes:
Very Professional Look and clean installation
High build quality
Good Camera quality and audio quality
Limited noise / interference when 2-way communication with the Doorbird
When someone presses the doorbell, it takes a clean pic and saves in the app
Dislikes:
First and most important is around the clumsiness of the remote access via IOS and the quality and speed of the connection. I have very strong Cellular LTE connection much of the time but yet almost NEVER is the connection to the device quick enough for me to actually answer the doorbell before someone walks off. The lag via IOS cellular connection is awful thus negating one of the primary reasons on bought the device. When the Doorbird APP rings on my Iphone i get a notification pop up on main screen but the iphone is usually locked. To answer, I cant just tap the notification, i have to unlock the phone, scroll to the app, open it and then in most cases it lags for a very long time to connect and sometimes never connects. Not sure if this is because doorbird is in Germany and the intercom call are routed their via cloud ?
The Doorbird "Birdchirp" chime is very difficult to hear outside when someone presses the button. You cannot change the outside chime or volume at the doorstation.
I have the Control4 houselogix driver and that is disappointing as the lag to get the ring through my audio speakers is almost 15 sec. After trying this for a few days, i disabled this in C4 and just hardwired the Doorbird to my door chime inside the house which works instaneous. I understand that if you have a C4 amp to speakers, the lag can be reduced but i have it going to a soundbar connected via HDMI to my C4 controller and the lag is too long to be useful.
All and all, the lag to the IOS and the frequent inability to connect real time, and the clumsiness of connecting of IOS App is making for a not so positive experience but there is hope i guess for future doorbird improvements.
A tad too big in the design but can live with that...
