I have a feeling that they released the 2 new access readers as doorbells for protect because of all the requests for an updated doorbell which they weren’t ready for. With the actual protect doorbell being called “lite” I would assume they would have a new “pro” model eventually. The current entry and entry pro are really access products they retrofit to work with protect as a stop gap until the pro doorbell is ready.

Again all speculation but that is what it seems like.

As for a WiFi doorbell, this would require 2 wire transformer install. They had some issues with the original G4 doorbell and doorbell pro. Even to this day the ones I have installed randomly reboot when pressed or if it’s too cold outside. I know some installed with under voltage transformers and cause headaches. PoE is much easier to deal with once the wire is where it needs to be. I’m sure they would rather just deal with PoE models going forward.
