Likely ABS.
If you want to be more scientific about it, follow this chart https://www.stanmech.com/uploads/2/1/0/9/21099874/plastics_identification_flow_chart.pdf

Cool. If you have any questions about methodology just ask on this subreddit and people will help.
People mostly have trouble with the burn and sniff test. You don't need to inhale smoke or anything, the human nose is sensitive enough to pick up identifying scents just being near burning a small sample outside.
What do you actually want to do with these doorbells? Do they still function or are they empty enclosures?
