I will second Eufy being garbage. Used to have a Skybell video doorbell camera, replaced it with a Eufy and have had nothing but issues getting it into HA. Now, two years in it is randomly disconnecting from the wifi and the indoor chime. Seriously considering going with the Reolink Wifi doorbell since I have four Reolink cameras around the exterior of the house and they have been solid.

ReolinkPartly works LocalPoE doorbell needs firmware downgrade for 2-way audio and reverse proxy

i got my reolink poe doorbell you have to stuff around with downgrading firmware since current one doesnt let 2 way audio work you have to stuff around with a reverse proxy because https (that you need for two way audio) doesnt work with the home assistant integration with the reolink doorbell to hear the visitor button press. idk why everyone says it's the best. it's a pita. maybe others are worse. i have yet to jump through the downgrading and proxy hoops. that's another day's problem

… platform currently doesn't accel at. However thanks to the help of Frigate, it's much better than it could be. You won't get reliable two-way audio with the doorbell camera. Don't let me discourage you, it's still absolutely amazing software, but it's still a work in progress. For example, I can't hear when I'm speaking with my Reolink doorbell camera. I don't even think this is a Home Assistant or Frigate limitation, I'm pretty sure it's the Reolink. Just a few things to be aware about. 😊

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
