Comcast has announced its new Xfinity Video Doorbell device for Xfinity Home security systems, just in time for the holidays.

According to Comcast, the new device will feature high-definition video with a 4:3 aspect ratio for viewing the area around your front door, as well as two-way audio. Xfinity Home customers will be able to interact directly with the doorbell through the service’s app, which will serve as the hub for the entire system.
As a customer, you will receive notifications on the app and TV via the Xfinity X1 or Flex streaming box every time someone rings the doorbell. With two-way audio, you can talk to the person outside via the app.
Not surprisingly, home security is a major driver of the Video Doorbell. Comcast cites the prominence of package thieves during the holidays, so it wants to help people keep an eye on deliveries.
