5.0 out of 5 stars – Best I found, trustworthy and reliable.

Bought 4 camera doorbells one for each entrance into the house. Charging differs depending on use. The main upper-level Garage door charges once every 2 months. Gets the most use. The downstairs garage door gets the second most usage. The others, the front and rear doors, don’t need a charge yet. The daytime camera looks good, and nighttime camera is super, even better with an outdoor light on. Connected easily to my network and the app works the magic. You can check on your house when away. The Ring fee is great as it’s based on household, not unit. We also have two indoor-powered cameras as well for added security. I looked and researched for over a year before I chose this setup. Highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars – A Must Have for Home Security and Peace of Mind!

I absolutely love my Ring Video Doorbell! Installation was super simple, and the app walks you through every step. The video quality is crystal clear both day and night and the motion detection is spot on. I get real-time alerts straight to my phone, so I always know who’s at my door, whether I’m home or away.

One of my favorite features is the two way audio. I can speak to delivery drivers or visitors without having to open the door. Plus, the sleek bronze finish adds a modern, stylish touch to my front entrance.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your home security, this is a smart and reliable choice. Highly

5.0 out of 5 stars – Simple to set up and great peace of mind

I bought the Ring camera because I had been thinking for a long time that I needed some security on my front porch. The price was right and I am glad I did it. Even though I have a wired doorbell, I decided it was easier just to get one with wi-fi. My brother came for Christmas and I asked him to install it. The spot I was installing it is too narrow, so my brother mounted a piece of wood first, then screwed the Ring Camera to the wood. It’s very easy and user friendly to use. I can clearly see whoever is on my porch. I also live with my 86 year old mother and it gives me peace of mind when I see her going out the front door to get the mail, or when she’s cleaning and shaking out rugs, I can turn on the intercom when I’m at work and harass her. The ring on the camera changes color when I’m talking to her (or anyone that rings the doorbell). I did purchase a door chime, so mom can hear when a package is delivered or if someone rings the doorbell. If you don’t purchase the chime, the person at home without a smartphone can’t hear someone at the door. You can also program the chime so that it sounds different for a package as opposed to someone ringing the doorbell. Sometimes the WiFi turns off of it for some reason, but mom has figured out how to disconnect and then reconnect it so it starts working again. The Ring camera detects everything happening on the porch. I can even see at night. I subscribed to the cheapest plan, it does everything I need, it records and allows me to interact with whoever is on the porch.

5.0 out of 5 stars – Better than blink!

Amazing! I had the ring years ago and it broke so instead of buying another ring I went and bought the Blink version. The one that Amazon has it was absolutely terrible. I hated it now I bought the new version of the ring and I love it. It works amazing and it’s completely flawless. It has a full view so we could see how to tell if anyone standing at your door. And it was very easy to set up. A 10 out of 10.

User Review #5:

4.0 out of 5 stars – Reliable Ring Camera with Impressive Battery Life, Minor WiFi Issues

The Ring Camera is an excellent choice for home security, offering clear video quality, easy installation, and an impressively long battery life. I was pleasantly surprised by how long the battery lasts between charges, making it a convenient option for those who don’t want to constantly worry about recharging. The motion detection works well, and the app is user-friendly, allowing for quick access to live footage and notifications.

The only drawback I’ve noticed is that the camera occasionally has trouble staying connected to WiFi, even though my router is close by. While it’s not a constant issue, there have been times when the connection drops unexpectedly. However, when it’s working, the camera delivers reliable performance and peace of mind.

Overall, this Ring Camera is a great investment for anyone looking for a battery-powered security solution, with just a small hiccup in connectivity that could be improved.

5.0 out of 5 stars – Perfect Security Upgrade! 🔒📹

I’m really impressed with the Ring Battery Doorbell Plus! The head-to-toe video feature is fantastic; it captures my visitors clearly from top to bottom, so I can see everything happening at my door. The night vision works great too, and the two-way talk lets me communicate easily with anyone outside, whether I’m at home or on the go. I also love how easy it was to install, and the battery lasts a decent amount of time. It gives me extra peace of mind knowing I can monitor my home anytime. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and high-quality video doorbell! 😊🔔

5.0 out of 5 stars – LIFE SAVER ❤️

It’s been 2 months since I got this ring doorbell and have experience literally absolutely NO ISSUES 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 the battery life is exceptional, I have charged it once since having it and everything works great. Sound, motion, video, audio, and I love the wide angle view. My parents have a different generation (2021) I believe and that one don’t show wide angle as this new generation. 10 out of 10!! Highly recommend!!! 👍🏽
