Big Isn’t a Dream Anymore: A 9-Inch Full HD Video Door Phone Is Coming
The doorbell rings. You walk up to the video door phone, lean in, squint at a small screen, and still open the door to check who it is. The device did its job. The screen did not.
That gap is where most video door phones fall short today. A video door phone (VDP) exists for one reason: to let you see and speak to a visitor before the door opens. If the face on the screen is small or blurred, the decision is still a guess.
What a video door phone is supposed to do
A video door phone is a two-part home security system. An outdoor unit with a camera, microphone and call button sits at the entrance. An indoor monitor inside the home shows the live video and lets you talk to the visitor.
When someone presses the call button, the indoor monitor rings and displays who is outside. You see them, speak to them and then decide whether to open the door. It works like a video intercom for the home, and every step depends on what the screen shows you.
Why screen size matters in a video door phone
Screen size decides how quickly and how confidently you recognise a visitor. Three things change as the screen grows:
• Recognition from a distance. Few people stand right at the monitor. A larger screen lets you identify a visitor from across the room, which matters most for elders and children.
• Detail you can act on. A uniform, an ID card, a parcel label or a second person standing behind the first are easy to miss on a small display.
• A wall that matches the home. Living rooms now have large televisions and slim switch panels. A small, dated monitor beside them looks out of place.
Why Full HD matters as much as size
A bigger screen with low resolution only makes the blur bigger. A Full HD video door phone shows the entrance at 1920 x 1080 pixels, so faces stay sharp when the picture is stretched across a large display.
Clarity counts most when conditions are poor: a dim corridor, evening light or a visitor standing against a bright background. Size and resolution have to arrive together to be useful.
The trade-off that has held big screens back
Until now, a large Full HD indoor monitor has sat at the premium end of the market. So the choice has usually been a compromise: take the screen you want, or take the one that fits the budget.
That compromise repeats at every door, whether it is a single villa or a tower with four hundred apartments. The entrance is the first thing a resident touches each day, and it deserves better than second best.
What is coming: the Onetouch I5 Pro Full HD series
Onetouch is about to add a new name to its Full High Definition Series: the I5 Pro. Here is what can be shared today.
• A 9-inch indoor monitor, built for a clear view from anywhere in the room.
• Full HD video, so the larger screen shows more detail and not more blur.
• A big-screen experience planned for every Indian home, not only the top floor of the market.
Everything else stays under wraps until launch day.
Big isn’t a dream anymore — I5 Pro, 9 inches of pure luxury.

Frequently asked questions
Each answer opens with a direct one-sentence reply, which is the part Google and AI assistants lift into their results.
What is a video door phone?
A video door phone (VDP) is a home security device that lets you see and talk to a visitor before opening the door. It has an outdoor unit with a camera and call button at the entrance, and an indoor monitor with a screen inside the home.
How does a video door phone work?
A video door phone works by sending live video and audio from the outdoor unit to the indoor monitor when a visitor presses the call button. You view the visitor on the screen, speak through the monitor and release the door if you choose to.
Which screen size is best for a video door phone?
A larger screen is better for recognising visitors quickly, especially from a distance. Most indoor monitors range from about 4 inches to 10 inches, with 7 inches being common. A 9-inch video door phone gives a noticeably wider, clearer view of the entrance.
Is a Full HD video door phone worth it?
Yes, a Full HD video door phone is worth it when the screen is large or the entrance lighting is poor. Full HD means 1920 x 1080 pixels, which keeps faces and details sharp instead of grainy.
What is the difference between a video door phone and a video doorbell?
A video door phone has a dedicated indoor monitor fixed inside the home, while a video doorbell usually sends the video to a smartphone app. A video door phone suits families where everyone, including elders and children, needs to answer the door without a phone.
Can a video door phone be installed in an existing apartment?
Yes, a video door phone can be installed in most existing apartments and villas. The work depends on the wiring available between the entrance and the indoor monitor location, so an authorised installer should check the site first.
How much does a 9-inch video door phone cost in India?
The cost of a video door phone in India depends on screen size, resolution, the outdoor unit and installation. Large Full HD models have traditionally sat in the premium range. Onetouch will share I5 Pro details through its channel partners at launch.
When will the Onetouch I5 Pro be available?
The Onetouch I5 Pro Full HD series video door phone is launching soon. Onetouch will announce the date and full specifications on its website and through its channel partner network across India.
