Overview
The EZVIZ HP3 Pro is a battery video doorbell, and EZVIZ’s UK page lists a solar panel in the box. It records 2K (2048 x 1296) at a fixed 15fps through a 2.3mm lens with a 162° diagonal view, from a 1/2.8in low-light sensor. Infrared night vision reaches 6 m. It has AI human shape detection, motion sensing up to 5 m across 120° with high, medium and low settings, two-way talk and a sound and light tamper alarm that sends alerts to your phone.
It has a 5,200mAh rechargeable battery and can be powered from 8-24V AC wiring, USB-C (5V) or the EZVIZ doorbell solar panel. EZVIZ’s manual says it works with existing doorbell systems on 8-24V AC, but the solar panel can’t be fitted with a wired chime at the same time. Storage is 32GB of built-in eMMC, plus EZVIZ CloudPlay cloud storage. It uses 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, is rated IP65 and is set up in the EZVIZ app. EZVIZ’s global page names Alexa and Google Assistant; with Google you get live streaming only.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Cons
Good to Know
Wiring to an existing chime: EZVIZ’s manual says the doorbell is compatible with doorbell systems supplying 8-24 volts AC, 50mA, at 50 or 60Hz, 40VA max. It warns: “The solar panel cannot be installed with the wired chime at the same time, otherwise the solar panel will be damaged.” It also says not to wire the doorbell to a DC-powered intercom system or other DC power source.
EZVIZ recommends the EZVIZ CH1 chime for large houses; it is not included. With Google Assistant, EZVIZ’s global page says you can use live streaming but can’t receive incoming video calls or use the chime function.
Setup & Installation
EZVIZ’s HP3 Pro manual says to press and hold the power button for 2 seconds to turn the doorbell on. On the Home screen of the EZVIZ app, tap + in the upper-right corner to open the QR code scanner, scan the QR code on the Quick Start Guide cover or on the doorbell, then follow the EZVIZ app wizard to finish the Wi-Fi setup.
To charge it, the manual says to buy a 5V 2A power adapter, as one is not included; with it, a full charge takes about 4.5 hours. EZVIZ says not to charge the doorbell above 50°C or below 0°C.
