We test a lot of video doorbells here at TechRadar, and our all-time favorite isn't from Ring – it's from Philips, and it's just hit a record-low price ahead of Amazon Prime Day. The Philips 7000 Series Video Doorbell is now down to $169.99 (was $235.99), making it one of the most affordable ways to secure your home and check on visitors – particularly since it doesn't need a subscription.

The Philips 7000 Series currently holds the top spot in our roundup of the best video doorbells, and it's never been cheaper than with this early Prime Day deal. You don't have to pay a monthly subscription fee to store your videos either, and it comes with a separate plug-in chime so you can hear callers from anywhere in your house.

When we tested the Philips 7000 Series Video Doorbell, we were impressed by its wide field of view, which comes courtesy of two cameras – one at face-height, and the other angled to capture packages left on your doorstep. It's a smart design, and the 2K footage is clear and crisp when viewed on your phone.

Wi-Fi connectivity is built in, so you don't need a separate hub (like you do with some other video doorbells), and it can be used with existing doorbell wiring or run from a rechargeable battery. What more could you want? Take a look at our full Philips 7000 Series Video Doorbell review for more details.
