Full Smart Doorbells comparison in 2026

Updated September 2026
Data from Amazon and official EZVIZ and Google sites.
2026 verdict
Third-generation Nest hardware still leads this wired-versus-peephole pairing: Google Nest Doorbell (wired, 3rd Gen) is the stronger video doorbell on owner rating, connectivity, integrations, alerts and customizable motion zones against the EZVIZ EP4. It is a hardwired Nest with dual-band Wi-Fi and Google's alert stack, including person and package detection plus motion zones. The EZVIZ EP4 keeps a 2-year warranty, a 5.5-inch indoor screen, on-device face recognition and local microSD, with no transformer required. Choose the Google Nest Doorbell (wired, 3rd Gen) if the door is already wired for a Nest; choose the EZVIZ EP4 when you need a battery peephole and the longer warranty.
