What the differences mean

Form factor

The EZVIZ CP4 is a peephole kit: the camera replaces the viewer outside and a 4.3-inch touchscreen mounts inside. The Eufy Video Doorbell C31 (with Battery Pack) is a conventional camera that sits beside the door, so it can go on any door while the EZVIZ CP4 needs an existing viewer hole.

Resolution

The Eufy Video Doorbell C31 (with Battery Pack) records 2K, while the EZVIZ CP4 is 1080p at 15 fps. If reading a face or a parcel label on the phone matters most, the Eufy has the sharper sensor.

Weather resistance

The Eufy Video Doorbell C31 (with Battery Pack) is IP65 rated, but EZVIZ states that neither the camera nor the screen of the EZVIZ CP4 is waterproof, so the peephole kit belongs on a sheltered door rather than one fully exposed to rain.

Warranty and storage

The EZVIZ CP4 carries a two-year warranty and records to a microSD card of up to 512 GB, against one year and up to 128 GB on the Eufy Video Doorbell C31 (with Battery Pack), which can also record to a Eufy HomeBase. Both avoid a subscription.

Indoor chime

The indoor touchscreen of the EZVIZ CP4 doubles as the chime, with adjustable volume. The Eufy Video Doorbell C31 (with Battery Pack) ships without a chime, which is sold separately and is a common note in its reviews.

What owners say

Owners of both of these battery doorbells start with installation. EZVIZ CP4 owners describe a camera that drops into an existing peephole in minutes with no drilling or wiring, and they single out the 4.3-inch indoor screen that anyone in the house, children and elderly parents included, can use; their main warning is battery life, which can fall to about a week when the door faces a busy corridor, because PIR sensitivity has only three levels and cannot be masked to a zone. Eufy Video Doorbell C31 (with Battery Pack) owners praise the clear 2K image and the subscription-free recording to microSD or a Eufy HomeBase, and they rate the brand and its support, but they report battery life well short of the claim and no low-battery warning on battery, along with a chunky body and no indoor chime in the box.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is better overall: Eufy Video Doorbell C31 (with Battery Pack) or EZVIZ CP4?
