Whats the difference between the doorbell with the chime unit and the doorbell with the homebase ?

If you just want a working bell then they both give similar functionality. Practical issues include Chime - plugs into a plug socket -removable microsd card (16G) Homebase - stand alone unit - Fixed flash memory (16G) - expandable to link with other Eufy accessories - Ethernet port I have two bells and one of each. I have had some trouble with WiFi detection on the chime but never with the Homebase but I have not swapped them around to fully tested this.

is the chime provided by the unit that has to be attached to a router? And is there a distance limitation from the unit to camera?

The chime needs to connect to the wifi. And it cannot be attached to the router with the ethernet cable. Usually, the chime can be 20-30ft from the doorbell. The actual range will vary depending on a number of factors such as the thickness of walls, obstacles inside the house, and the location of the router.

Is there any benefit in buying this wireless 2k video doorbell with the home base versus buying it with the chime? Not sure if I need a Homebase?

Don't think you need the home base unless there are a bunch of other eufy products like cameras etc you want to add. If it's just a doorbell the chime is perfect

does this work with google

Yes, the doorbell works with Google Assistant. But it only supports viewing the live stream.
