jnatyshen: I waited so long to get a video doorbell, and chose Logitech + Apple HK secure video because of the promise they sell — but in the end this hardware isn't up to the task. Had to return it the same day I opened it for failing to connecting to wifi and failing to reset. I wanted to love it, but I would avoid this product.

Cliente de Amazon: Es un producto confiable, tarbaja 24/7 sin problema.
Lo unico que no me gusto es que el cable usb es muy corto y dificulta la instalación.

L B C: Same good quality as previous Logitech Circle cameras but is easier to install in Home Kit.uses Apple secure video as well as a convenient on off switch. I’ve bought two to cover from and back and they work perfectly

J. Lynch: Cons, then Pros, but overall, I’m impressed.

Cons:
- My home’s doorbell transformer had to be replaced. That was a surprise. I went with a 16v 10va rated one. I read about a lot of people buying 30va but that is a waste of money and electricity. The 10va is far more power than needed.
- I wish I could have mounted this horizontally to fit me home’s exterior and cover up the paint spot exposed from removing the old doorbell button. But the image can’t be rotated for some reason.
- There is a white bar LED light that seems to randomly come on and off. I don’t know what the control is for it.
- The Logitech app is Garbage.

Pros:
- Wiring install was easy.
- Apple Homekit was crazy simple and took maybe 30 seconds.
- It looks nice and the images and videos are great.
- Motion detection is fantastic.

Julio Luna: Es la segunda que compro, son fáciles de instalar, fácil de manejar en la aplicación casa de Apple y su micrófono detecta voces y ruidos que se escuchan muy claras en la grabación.

Además de que si cuentas con la Apple One tienes la ventaja de tener las grabaciones por varios días en la nube.

Danner: I decided to pick up this Logitech Circleview Doorbell for Homekit for one main reason: I wanted to get off the Ring Doorbell platform.

Homekit Doorbells that are natively supported are few and far between. You have this one, one made by Wemo (belkin), and the new Aqara G4 Doorbell.

Look up a few reviews on any of these and you'll find the following as the main focuses for each:

Logitech - It overheats (supposedly this has been fixed from the latest firmware...I picked this up in March before the heat from summer so I'm not sure how this will reflect on my purchase...fingers crossed)

Wemo - Disconnects all the time (unreliable)

Aqara - Has connection issues as of launch, and people are upset regarding the orientation of the camera (Orientation was the big reason I didn't want this)

The Logitech was very easy to install, the only issue I had was the screws provided in the kit for mounting were very easy to strip. In their defense it's meant to be installed using the wall anchors, however since I had a previously installed smart doorbell I planned to simply screw back into the wood where the previous screw holes were...

3OOM3OX3OY: Lo único que requiere la cámara es corriente eléctrica y completar su configuración desde la App Casa.
Esta es la segunda cámara que adquiero por que estoy satisfecho con la calidad y precio que ofrece.

Bert: *Update - I’m up updating my review since there are serious overheating and disconnecting issue. The camera is no longer working as expected and actually lightly burned my sons finder when ringing the doorbell. This doorbell is not safe especially when used why children. I will be removing it prior to Halloween.

Absolutely perfect device for HomeKit users! However, a completa lack of thought went into the engineering of hardware design for installation instructions. Clearly these two departments do not speak with each other at Logitech and it shows. If you can get over the installation hump I recommend the doorbell.

Once installed however the device works marvelously with the Apple HomeKit software. Fast video loads, Apple TV clips when someone is at the door (my favorite) easy to subscribe on any apple device to iCloud service (only required for video recording, doorbell still works without subscription but streaming can only be done from home). I am actually excited to see what if anything Apple upgrade to HomeKit going forward now.

Let me start explaining my disappointment in the installation process by saying I am a DIYer homeowner...
