Recently, the video intercom market has been developing strongly, especially in Moscow. Residents of apartment buildings are no longer satisfied with ordinary intercoms, when you only hear the person who called. I want to establish eye contact, thanks to which less time is lost. That is why now more and more often a special module with a display is connected to the access intercom.
The best manufacturers of video intercoms
If we talk about the Russian market, then in 2021 it will feature products from at least five companies.Almost all of them are Chinese, and many of them order the production of video intercoms somewhere on the side. Only three enterprises have their own factories.
South Korean company KOCOM constantly introduces advanced technologies, which is why its devices cost a lot of money. Headquartered in the same country COMMAXfounded in 1968. The Chinese company also has its own production KENWEI, which has existed since 1987 - its intercoms often stand out due to the unique design.
In fact, devices created by other companies also perform well. For example, video intercoms distributed under the brand TANTOS - it belongs to a Russian enterprise that orders production at Chinese factories.
Which video intercoms are included in our rating?
To be in this selection, the device is not enough to look good "on paper". We rely on real customer reviews. If they have serious shortcomings, then the intercom does not have the slightest chance of getting into our top. We also got acquainted with the reviews published on specialized resources and YouTube. But we paid the most attention, of course, to the characteristics.
Now no one will be satisfied with a video intercom with a small display. So we have bypassed such devices. We also advise you to pay attention to additional functionality. For example, some models have built-in memory for recording video calls. Increasingly, devices equipped with a wireless module appear on store shelves, thanks to which the call also goes to the smartphone.And the outer panel can be equipped with IR illumination - it will be useful in the dark. Another video intercom can be equipped with a motion sensor that automatically starts recording what is happening.

Are you fed up with physical or touch buttons? In this case, we recommend connecting the Hikvision DS-KH6320-TE1 monitor to the access intercom. Its functionality is controlled using a 7-inch capacitive screen. Having a high resolution, by the way! This means that you can safely connect a call panel with a good IP camera to the device. It is also the best choice for organizing the protection of a private house, because the monitor is able to save photos to the memory card you have installed. Or even to the built-in storage, but its volume is only 32 MB, so it's better to forget about it right away. And the product also received alarm inputs, an omnidirectional microphone and a two-pin power interface.

- Memory card supported

This model is named after the popular character of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The device is just as durable. It is not even afraid of splashes, as evidenced by the corresponding certificate. The image from the connected camera is displayed on a fairly large display. Confused only by its low resolution. However, you can definitely see the person. And if it turns out to be an intruder, the conversation with him will be saved to the SD card in a much higher quality, after which you can familiarize yourself with it using a computer. In total, up to two IP cameras can be connected to the video intercom. The system as a whole can consist of four monitors and two panels, which is sufficient not only for an ordinary apartment, but also for a house consisting of several offices. The only pity is that there is no way to listen to a person who is at another monitor. But, unlike competitors, the device is ready to boast durable mechanical buttons.

This model even received a slot for a memory card, which saves pictures of the person who came.Up to two additional IP cameras can be connected to the monitor. However, the motion detector will only work with the main outdoor panel, this must be taken into account. Even buyers note in their reviews a low cost.

This video intercom exists in two versions: with a handset and without it. If you are not concerned about privacy, you can get by with a simplified option. Be that as it may, the functionality of both versions is the same. In particular, it is the best choice for a person who is going to set their favorite MP3 song as a ringtone. Another advantage of this model is the ability to open the lock of the gate or gate - for this you need an inexpensive TS-NC05 relay. Another device has a slot for a memory card.

For relatively little money, you will receive not only a monitor, but also a calling panel, complete with a visor and fasteners.
- Average price: 6 860 rubles.
- Type: complete door station
- Display: TFT, 4" (10.6 cm), 320x234 pixels
- Degree of protection: none
Complete set at the best price! In the box with the purchase, you will find a wall-mounted monitor, on the plastic case of which there are three mechanical buttons, which indicates the simplest control. The display itself has a very small diagonal, and its resolution is comparable to that of the screens of old mobile phones. Alas, the manufacturer saved on this, as well as on additional functionality - the device, for example, cannot save video or photos to a memory card. But on the other hand, there is a handset that allows you to make the conversation a little more confidential. There is also a standard calling panel in the box. If such a need arises, you can connect a second one to the video intercom by purchasing it additionally.

- Comes with call panel
- You can connect a second tube

- Degree of protection: IP64
If it seems unacceptable to you to buy a video intercom, the body of which is made in white, then you will have to look towards TANTOS Amelie Black.However, this does not mean who you have to put up with some restrictions. The functionality of this model is fully consistent with the price segment, which makes the device an ideal choice for installation in an apartment or even a private house. But most of all, it will appeal to the owners of office premises, because this model allows you to embed yourself in a system of four monitors, two cameras and two outdoor panels. Customers complain in their reviews only about the lack of a slot for a memory card. This means that you will not be able to record a video or even save photos of the person who called. There is no motion sensor either.

Top 4. COMMAX DRC-40KHD

The case of the device has anti-vandal protection, so intruders will definitely not be able to damage the video intercom.
- Average price: 4,000 rubles.
- Type: calling panel
- Display: none
- Degree of protection: anti-vandal
Standard call panel, which can hardly be called the best of its kind. For example, not everyone will be satisfied with its cost. And the resolution of the built-in IP camera, which is only 1.3 megapixels, will not please every reader. However, if a monitor with a modest diagonal is installed in the apartment, then this is definitely enough.Well, the product deserves the greatest praise for its anti-vandal implementation, thanks to which this model is extremely difficult to disable. It also ensures a long service life. As for the connection to the system, it is the usual four-wire. The camera view angle reaches 75° horizontally and 55° vertically. Its slope is adjustable at the time of installation.
- Has LED lighting
- Works at any temperature
- Panel is durable
- The price cannot be called low
Top 3. ACTOP M7-2mp

- Average price: 2,999 rubles.
- Type: calling panel
- Display: none
- Degree of protection: none
A curious call panel that does not require any wires. Most of all, it looks like a doorbell. It is fixed in the same way, and besides the call button, there is only a two-megapixel camera here. That is why the device is usually placed in front of the front door to the apartment. Owners of a private house will not be satisfied with the lack of a contact pad for the intercom key. And even if it does not seem important, the call panel is not able to boast of moisture protection, which is why it can be disabled by the first serious downpour. By the way, this device does not need a monitor, since the call goes to a smartphone, where you can watch a video picture. You will have to open the door yourself.
- Has a motion detector
- Wireless connection in use
- Video recordings can be stored in the cloud
- Key pad missing
Top 2. Falcon Eye FE-70 ATLAS HD

- Average price: 8 580 rubles
- Style: base station
- Display: TFT, 7 inches (18 cm), 1024x600 pixels
- Degree of protection: none
Like the vast majority of currently existing video intercoms, this one has a fairly large screen. Touch keys are located around it. Any buyer pays for a large number of them. This is due to the presence of additional functionality here. If you insert a memory card into this model, you will be able to record video calls and take photos. Also, shooting starts automatically as soon as a special sensor has detected movement in the frame. Another interesting feature is the ability to record a voice message, which then acts as an answering machine. Otherwise, this is a familiar monitor that has a wall mounting method and a four-wire connection scheme.
- Video recording supported
- Preset 10 ringtones
- Built-in motion sensor
- Buttons are touch sensitive
- Price won't suit everyone

- Average price: 8,500 rubles.
- Style: base station
- Display: TFT, 7 inches (18 cm), 800x480 pixels
- Degree of protection: IP64
This panel has the usual wall mounting method. It uses a 7-inch screen that displays a menu familiar from smartphones.However, there is no touch pad, so the buttons below the display are used to navigate the interface. With their help, you can, for example, go to the calendar, turn off the call, set a new ringtone (any MP3 tracks are supported), and even listen to what is happening near another monitor, if it is present in the system. There is even an autoresponder implemented! In a word, the best functionality is waiting for you. At least in this price range.
