Might want to replace my eufycam C31 video doorbell for the (new?) Dahua DB41AB/W as i want to go all in on Dahua. Running Dahua Ipcams and Nvr at the moment.
Anyone tried Dahuas ?New? Video doorbell DB41AB/W?
- Thread starter eikido
- Start date
Also curious to see a review of this product. Couldn't seem to find any reviews yet, maybe too new?
Is it possible to simply connect wifi devices to the nvr via the ip and then use face recognition?

According to my testing with the DB41AB, you can connect it to an AI NVR via IP, and then set up face detection and facial recognition on the doorbell channel.
Test NVR: NVR5432-16P-I Firmware: V4.002.0000000.4.R
Test NVR: NVR5432-16P-I Firmware: V4.002.0000000.4.R
That sounds good, and the DB41AB/W (currently ~ € 100)
could eventually replace my Imou DB61i doorbell.
While it's identical to the Dahua DH-DB6I and Amcrest AD410, and it also integrates easily and directly with my Dahua NVR, for complete control and setup, you need to use the Imou app and cloud, and the fewer cloud connections I need, the better. 
Can you also say something about whether the DB41AB/W has Onvif (Profile S) implemented and whether it offers a direct RTSP stream (main and sub)? Unfortunately, there's no information about this in the technical specifications. Onvif Profile S would be important for me to be able to integrate it into Home Assistant.
Note: Here in Europe, the DB41AB/W model currently seems to be offered primarily through Dahua Benelux in the Netherlands. BTW: There is also the VDKP01-BG kit (currently ~ € 150), consisting of DB41AB and DS1AP (Wi-Fi wireless doorbell/speaker).
In any case, I think it's good that Dahua continues to offer such an affordable Wi-Fi model of a video/doorbell that can also be powered by a doorbell transformer, rather than leaving the market entirely to Reolink and other providers.
