Review

We tested both of the variants here are the features that we liked and features that we don't

 

FEATURES WE LIKE:

The LED strobe lights alert is the feature that drew our attention the most, because it lets you pick any custom light for your alarm.

Honeywell portable wireless doorbell's battery life is immense, the company promised up to 2 years of battery life 

Some people don't like too much noise in their house, thanks to the Honeywell Doorbell's adjustable volume feature, 

You can maintain your peace while having the doorbell placed inside your room.

The sound quality is significant with an extensive range of 350 ft

The most crucial weather resistance feature is amazing.

We tested it by placing the push button inside a jar full of water for 30 mins. To our surprise, the Honeywell wireless doorbell series 5's push-button was working fine.

FEATURES I DONT LIKE

The sleep mode feature is not satisfying, it took too long to set it up

The LED light alerts are not bright 

The mute timer hours are irrelevant they should have given more options like 30 mins and 1 hour.

The sound quality leaves a little bit to be desired

Pros (Wireless)

• Completely Portable
• Immense Battery life
• Extensive Range
• Easy to set up
• Smart alerts

Cons (Wireless)

• Sleep mode leaves a lot to be desired
• Irrelevant mute timer hours
• LEDs are dim
• Sound quality is good but not great
• Only 6 tunes and you cannot add a custom one

 Pros (Plug-in)

• No worries about battery life
• Wireless "E" Push button compatibility
• Can be connected up to 4 transmitters
• Easy to set up 
• Smart alerts

Cons (Plug-in)

• It is not Portable
• Mute time hours are uncertain
• LED lights are not bright
• Only 6 tunes 
• The sound quality leaves a little to be desired

Should You Buy Honeywell Wireless Doorbell Series 5 in 2020

If you are okay with dim LED light and 6 tunes. 

We would highly recommend you to buy it even in 2020. However, there is Honeywell Wireless Doorbell Series 9 which is better than series 5 in many ways.
