Ring Video Doorbell + Ring Chime | 1080p HD video, Advanced Motion Detection, and easy installation (2nd Gen)

Well, i've had this Ring doorbell a couple of weeks now and i'm very pleased with it, although there is one issue. Notifications on my phone are taking 30 secs to 1 min to come through, which seems to be a common complaint from other sites i've read reviews on. Ring seem to always say it's slow wifi to blame, but it isn't. I have 500mb broadband and by my front door, i have download speeds of 20mb, so i know it isn't the wifi. So, what i've done, is installed the app on my tablets and linked it to Alexa, which appears to be much better, as notifications are near instant!. Something i think should have been put on the camera, is an SD card slot to record motion, rather than be forced to subcribe to a cloud system, which apparently is now £5 per month. The camera itself is brilliant, easy to set up and very sharp picture wise, even at night. Audio is superb on the two way speaker and recording. I don't know how long the battery would last, because i purchased the adaptor for it and hardwired it, as i don't want to be charging the battery all the time. I also purchased the Ring chime as well, which is easy to set up and provides extra warning. All in all, great camera and well worth the money. One thing i am reading alot about, is that this camera comes with two security screws for the bottom, but people are losing them and sticking wood screws in instead, DON'T, because you will screw into the battery and short it out, so if you lose the screws, get onto Ring who will send replacements.

After suffering a nightmare of a year with a different brand of camera doorbell, I gave up and invested in this one for the front door.THIS has everything you could dream of! The motion sensor is sensible, so unlike the other brand I had, this one doesn't go off all night long cause it spots a blooming fox!This works seamlessly with Alexa, and once you've got the hang of the settings, you'll soon find that you can have Alexa Show you the doorbell cam live feed, while the doorbell tells your visitors you'll be with them shortly. Which is perfect if you have someone come to the door late at night and you prefer to see them through the Alexa Show BEFORE answering the door, without them leaving cause they think you're not home 😊Next, there's the absolutely superb camera, night vision and two-way audio! There is a very bright street light at the end of my garden and despite this, the night vision can still show individual blades of grass and each stone in the roughcast wall? That is the kind of details you should expect from a security camera not a doorbell so I am jumping for joy about the camera quality, during the day light the camera is second to none too which makes me feel safe 24/7. You can see for yourself from my pics 🙂The audio is crystal clear, so much so that it I could hear a smoke detector going off in one of the houses at the other end of the street, when I went onto live view so I have zero complaints there! 😂As for the recording length? My previous doorbell brand only recorded 30 seconds max, which was useless on both occasions when I actually needed about a minute. This wee beauty records 2 minutes which is fantastic for if someone dodgy comes to your door, and given the amount of scammers who crawl out of the woodwork during a cost of living crisis, having a device like this wee gem works as a deterrent AND records the ones who chance their luck!This is also great for battery life, easy to charge when it's running low on power and wireless, so once it's connected to the WiFi and up, it's good to go for a decent amount of time! Mine was connected and installed in under 3 minutes, (that includes drilling the pilot holes) and has had a constant connection to the wi-fi signal ever since! To give you a comparison, the other doorbell cam this has replaced took 4 hours to try to connect to their own WiFi network, continuously going round in circles trying to connect then disconnecting after I had to change the batteries one time. But this device was seemless, and practically set itself up for me.When this detects motion, I have it set to record the video and it tells all the Alexa's in the house that someone is at the front door, so even if I'm in the kitchen with the washing machine going, I don't need to worry that I've missed someone at the door.That was my first one of these! I loved it so much I bought another one for the babies nursery as she's just went into her toddler bed and it's set up to alert me when she gets up out of bed. She's only one and a half, so having the motion sensor activate as soon as she's up and about is worth every penny cause anything can happen in a very short space of time with wee ones that young! The motion sensor in the nursery doorbell cam is phenomenal! She can toss and turn though the night, and it will do nothing, but as soon as her feet start dangling of her wee bed, the motion detector kicks in and tells my bedroom Alexa that the baby is up! I have the nursery doorbell cam set up to turn her nursery light on, my room lamp on, and the living room lights on when motion is detected in her room. I also have the "wait" feature set in the Alexa app so that the motion sensor doesn't put the nursery light on when I'm putting her to bed at night which is an awesome little known feature!I also have the nursery doorbell cam send a live feed to my bedroom Alexa so I can see her as soon as the motion detector goes off in the morning, enabling me to reassure her through the speaker that mummy will be there in a wee minute so she knows she not all alone.As you can see from my photos, the camera can see the details on her radiator and her chair in the nursery in the pitch black! She has a proper blackout blind, with blackout fabric behind it, and the hall light was off when I took this photo, so there was ZERO light getting into her room! Despite this, the level of detail in this doorbell camera is the best quality I've found in a night vision camera. It even picks up on the difference in shade on her velvet chair as you can see from my picture. It is so crystal clear that I can see if her eyes are open or closed which is priceless. Also, the audio is so clear that when her wee baby snores start, it picks up the sound perfectly enough that Alexa can the stop playing her soothing bedtime music, cause the doorbell detected she was asleep 😍This is exactly what I need from my devices! Peace of mind, quality, security and convenience and this wee doorbell has all of those in bucket-loads! So much so, that I've just purchased a third one for the back door/garden now too 😂All in all, if you are looking for a doorbell camera THIS is definitely the one to get!☺️

I was so impressed with the camera, motion detection and notifications that I bought a second one for the back door. This was a cheaper and more convenient option for an outdoor patio camera. (The doorbell feature is also useful for calling management when I am requiring some assistance when working in the rear garden.)I do not yet know whether I will continue with the Ring cloud service after the trial period has ended.The doorbell, motion detections, notifications and live view are standard features that justify this inexpensive purchase (especially when bought during sales).

I have been using this doorbell for about 2 months right now and will start off by saying it is very good and has been a life saver a few times with parcels and other things. On WiFi the connection is great and viewing it through the app works well however on data when you are out of your home and want to view the live feed it takes considerably long and sometimes fails which is super annoying and should be fixed…in those situations using the Amazon Alexa app to view the live feed works better and much faster. The app overall is great and does what you need along with smart features.Video quality is very good and you are able to make things out easily and the night vision is good too. Sound quality is sub par but does the job so no complaints. Battery life lasts about just over a month in my case and I would consider getting the solar charger so you never have to worry about charging it if you will only use battery power.Best time to buy this in my opinion is when it is on offer along with the free echo pop which can be used as the chime for the doorbell.

A great tool, is convenient and makes you feel safer about answering the door. The video quality is good. Only frustrating thing is that the speed of receiving notifications of movement outside my door, when the bell is rung, and of viewing live videos dramatically reduced after the free 30 day trial ended, even though I signed up to the subscription. May be a coincidence but it’s frustrating.

I had originally resisted buying one of these but eventually caved, im happy to say I was surprised how easy it is to install, how good the sound and picture quality are and useful it actually is, perfect for deciding if I want to open the door or not, when I can just speak through the bell and say I'm not home (5* for that alone!)

Perfetto per l’utilizzo che ne faccio. Grazie

C'est l'écosystème Ring, donc que dire à part que cette sonnette s'intègre très bien avec tout le reste des équipements Ring. Elle est robuste, assez discrète et s'adapte très bien sur le chargeur solaire v2. Reste à 73% de charge même lors de journée avec très peu d'ensoleillement. A voir sur la durée mais pour l'instant elle est très bien.Seul bémol : la portée catastrophique du wifi. Je l'ai installé à même pas 5 mètres de mon ensemble de répéteurs (TP Link Deco qui envoie pas mal niveau portée), et bien je suis à une barre de signal. Je ne vois pas comment la portée peut être aussi mauvaise, d'autant plus qu'il n'y a aucun obstacle à part un mur.

Die Türklingel ist eigentlich super. Allerdings stand in der Beschreibung : wird mit Schnellwechselakkupack geliefert und das war leider nicht der Fall. Darum ging die Klingel zurück.

👍🏻

Die Ring Video-Türklingel ist wertig verarbeitet und arbeitet solide. Manko: Die Abo Verpflichtung. Da sind andere Anbieter schon weiter. Im Prinzip lohnte sich die Anschaffung für mich daher nicht wirklich. Ich hätte das Abo ja genommen, wenn man das über Paypal bestellen könnte. Ansonsten, technikmäßig sehr gut. MfG
