Lorex
Lorex has a new device for the smart home — the 2K QHD Wired Video Doorbell with Person Detection (model number B451AJD-E). As its very long product name suggests, this doorbell has 2K resolution and sends person alerts to differentiate between people and other motion activity.

The new Lorex doorbell seems expensive at a glance, given that the market has seen a shift in recent years to more affordable smart home security devices. Then again, the $30 Wyze Video Doorbell — by far the cheapest model I’ve reviewed — didn’t hold up to its pricier competition. And I haven’t come across any 2K doorbells that cost less than $100 (yet).
The Lorex 2K QHD Wired Video Doorbell with Person Detection is available now for $180; a 1080p version is also available for $100.
