TOKYO, Sept. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- SwitchBot, a leading provider of AI-enabled embodied home robotics systems, officially launched its SwitchBot Smart Video Doorbell. Designed to make home entry more secure, accessible, and connected, the SwitchBot Smart Video Doorbell features a camera doorbell, an ultra-large indoor monitor, and extended battery life. With its seamless smart home integration, the device furthers what families can expect from a modern video doorbell.
Ultra-Large Monitor for Better Communication
The SwitchBot Smart Video Doorbell introduces a 4.3-inch ultra-large monitor, making it easy for children, seniors, and those living alone to communicate with visitors without needing a smartphone. The system supports three-way intercom via the indoor monitor, the SwitchBot App, or Echo Show devices.
Meanwhile, with a built-in 100dB ringer and a Quick Response feature, households can respond to visitors instantly and clearly, ensuring convenience and peace of mind for every family member.
Ultra-Clear Visuals with AI Security
Equipped with 2K resolution, color night vision, and a 165° wide-angle view, the camera doorbell of the SwitchBot Smart Video Doorbell ensures sharp and reliable monitoring, even in dark outdoor environments. The device also features AI-powered detection, capable of identifying motion, people, pets, and vehicles, with real-time alerts to the app.
Extended Battery Life and Flexible Power Options
Powered by a 5000mAh high-capacity lithium battery, the doorbell lasts from 6 months to 19 months on a single charge (depends on usage habits), thanks to SwitchBot's EcoPower low-power-consumption Wi-Fi relay technology. Moreover, a convenient Type-C port makes recharging the doorbell as easy as charging a smartphone. Nonetheless, for users seeking uninterrupted power, the device can also run on a solar panel, ensuring zero battery anxiety.
Local Storage and Privacy Protection
Another highlight of the device is that SwitchBot Smart Video Doorbell offers local-first security. The monitor includes 4GB of built-in storage, expandable up to 512GB via microSD, with no monthly subscription fees.
The device also supports RTSP protocol and Home Assistant integration (requires additional setup for Home Assistant integration), allowing local streaming without relying on third-party servers and ensuring privacy remains fully under user control.
Works Without Internet and Installs in Minutes
Thanks to SwitchBot's EdgeLink System, the doorbell and monitor remain connected, even if home Wi-Fi goes down, guaranteeing video chats with visitors are never interrupted. Meanwhile, the device offers flexible installation options for the doorbell, including drill-free adhesive mounting or screw installation, with IP65-rated durability for both indoor and outdoor use.
Integration with SwitchBot Ecosystem
The SwitchBot Smart Video Doorbell also integrates seamlessly with SwitchBot's broader smart home lineup. Users can unlock doors with the SwitchBot NFC Card, Wallet Finder Card, or Safety Alarm. And they can also function as a light Matter gateway for SwitchBot Lock products, ensuring effortless entry management, whether at home or away.
Pricing and Availability
The SwitchBot Smart Video Doorbell is available via the SwitchBot's official website and Amazon stores, with an MSRP of USD 149.99 / CAD 199.99 / GBP 159.99 / EUR 159.99.

SwitchBot Officially Launches the SwitchBot Smart Video Doorbell
Code Name: BlueSpot, a Go AI, is disclosed ahead of the handicap-match events in the 10th-anniversary year of the historic AlphaGo–Lee Sedol match.
NEW YORK, Jan. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Issued by Code Name: BlueSpot Operations
Code Name: BlueSpot, the Go AI that embodies novel technology, is introduced today at the dawn of the 10th-anniversary year of the historic AlphaGo–Lee Sedol match.
As the milestone year begins to unfold, planning is underway for a Handicap-Adjustment Series as the main event—a series of public matches between BlueSpot and top-tier professional Go players. The intent is straightforward: to offer a clear perspective on the current discourse around AI—particularly the "AI bubble" narrative and its underlying assumptions—and to place demonstrable performance above private, unverifiable claims.
As a preliminary step, an Open Test—not a closed evaluation—in handicap-adjustment format is being prepared for the first half of 2026 (targeting March). It will be live-streamed online, feature multiple professional players drawn from a disclosed ranking range, and proceed under official refereeing. The venue will be announced in late January; final venue arrangements are underway across a small set of East Asian host locations.
BlueSpot is presented at this stage only as a code name. Further details will be disclosed with the main event. For the latest updates, visit https://codenamebluespot.com (Short link: https://cblue.spot).
