OUR PICK
VALUE ALTQuick answer: Many UK flats cannot legally/physically alter communal doors. If you can mount on your own doorset, Eufy Dual Camera wins for local storage bias; Ring Battery Plus if you accept subscription gravity for ecosystem convenience.

Leaseholder rules beat Amazon reviews. Battery units avoid transformer hunts. Wi-Fi at the door is often awful — check RSSI before buying.
