The Ring Battery Doorbell Pro has been a great addition to my home, but like anything, it has its issues. First of all, the installation was easy for me since I just had to drill it into a wooden post. The Ring doorbell was securely fastened with just a few screws, and that was it.
After downloading the app, the installation and connectivity were smooth, and I did not encounter any issues. I have a lot of devices connected to my internet, and despite that, the Ring doorbell is still holding pretty strong with the Wi-Fi.
The app is easy to use and straightforward. The Ring doorbell comes with a 30-day free trial that activates as soon as you install the doorbell. I really like all the features it has, like SOS, which enables you to request an ambulance or the police with a simple tap. The Neighbor Watch alerts you of anything going on around the neighborhood (mine has a lot of lost dogs!). You also get instant alerts if someone is at the door and all the perks that come with the paid subscription.
Now, since the free trial activated automatically, I'm not sure how it's going to work without it. I read on the Ring website that if you don't have a subscription, it will only give you real-time footage, and you won't be able to save any videos. For the price of this doorbell, I really wish it would at least give you access to the recordings for more time. I'm not sure if I want to pay a fee every month.
Another downside is that this doorbell does not come with a chime. So, if your phone or whatever device this doorbell is connected to is off, then you won't get notifications if someone is at the door. That means that you'll have to spend another $60 bucks for the chime.
However, the images and recordings are very good and accurate. The option for quick replies is useful, and so is the option for someone to leave you a message( message option available with paid subscription)"Although the product is exceptional in quality, it could benefit from offering more free options. This would allow users to fully experience and appreciate the product's features without committing to a purchase.

Hi Ivette0930
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.
We understand the importance of having all relevant product information prior to purchasing. Being alerted to motion and ring alerts from your Ring Battery Doorbell Pro is an important aspect of the device. In addition, being able to save, download, and review footage captured by your Ring device is a valuable feature of the Ring Protect Plan. We can definitely provide you with more information regarding the concerns mentioned in your review.
In addition to notifying your mobile device, the Ring Battery Doorbell Pro can be connected to various other devices to notify you of visitors at your door. It can be hardwired to an existing doorbell system with a transformer rated at 8 to 24 VAC, 50/60 Hz, and 5 VA to 40 VA. It can also be connected to a Ring Chime or a compatible Alexa-enabled device. Visit our support center for more details.
It sounds like there is some confusion regarding the optional Ring Protect plans. Ring Protect is a subscription that gives you access to paid features for your Ring device. With a Ring Protect Plan, you can save, review, and share video recordings from your Ring devices to your Ring account.
Without a Ring Protect Plan, you can still view real-time video for Ring doorbells and cameras and answer doorbell notifications when they happen, but you don’t get video recordings of those events. Visit our support center for more information.
Ring Community was launched to help deliver the most current news and educational information to our neighbors.

The Ring Battery Doorbell Pro is easy to set up, looks great with its Satin Nickel finish, and delivers super clear Head-to-Toe HD+ video. It’s perfect for spotting visitors or packages, and the motion alerts and two-way audio add extra peace of mind. The only downside is recharging the battery now and then, but it’s worth it for the convenience and security.

Rings my bell! Industry leader!

I was excited to replace my current doorbell camera, so when this product “Ring - Battery Doorbell Pro Smart Wi-Fi Video Doorbell - Battery-powered with Head-to-Toe HD+ Video - Satin Nickel” was received, I couldn’t wait to install it.
The Ring Doorbell is pure class! It is very well manufactured and comes with mounting hardware. In my particular case I was able to utilize the predrilled holes in my wall, which made the mounting process a snap! The product is capable of a “hard-wire” installation however I opted for battery use.
Upon charging the battery and downloading of the Ring app, I was ready to rock and roll. The Ring app is highly responsive and I encountered no quirks or hiccups! The app is easy to use and is very straightforward.
The Ring Doorbell has several customizable settings, some of which are sensitivity and zone.
The video quality is fine and my only concern is backlighting. My front door has an overhang, therefore my subject is in the shade and the area directly behind is full sunlight. Depending upon the day, the brightness, and cloud cover will dictate how well you can see the person in the video.
The consumer should be aware that you have to subscribe to “their” service that carries a monthly/yearly service charge. This service allows for the storage of your recordings.
Overall I am happy with this product. Ring continues to be the industry leader. Fantastic product and I’m very happy with its design, looks and operational capabilities.

Because It's Ring...

This is by far Ring's best battery doorbell. Is it their best doorbell? No: hardwired will -- almost -- always be better, because hardwired issues features that cannot be sustained by a battery, such as longer recording features, more sensitive motion ability, and even, now, their new firmware is able to detect such sounds as dogs barking.
The video quality on this doorbell is better than their best hardwired doorbell, but still doesn't reach 2K, which is something all Ring fans have been asking about, and is most likely yet to come for a while.
This battery doorbell also is truly head-to-toe, and still has great video quality. It offers most features that their top hardwired doorbell offers: bird's eye view detection, motion sensitivity adjustment, etc. And, I hardwired mine via a hardwire adapter that now has 24/7 power, and because it's battery -- thus unlike my truly hardwired Ring doorbell that I have on my other door -- this one will have backup battery in case the power goes out for a bit.
My top reason for being a Ring security user is this: the integration of devices, let alone their user interface's simplicity. It's so easy to link devices, with this battery doorbell included, to send pings to specific cameras to start recording, sound their sirens (this doorbell does not have a siren), turn spotlights on, etc.
Overall, it's 5 stars as a Ring product, and 4 stars as an overall product. Ring offers some of the best features, especially their user interface and device integration that most DIY security companies will never figure out, but still lacks the fundamental 2K video capturing.
4.4 stars overall as a product: 4 stars on this review because Best Buy doesn't let me select "4.4".

Our apartment is face the Main Street and after we had our packages stolen we had to get a camera. This works great!! The installation is very simple and straight forward to use. The video and audio quality is great!! Only downside is the subscription aspect but it’s not too pricey.

Overall, the Ring Pro 2 is a solid investment for enhancing home security, offering a perfect combination of video quality, features, and user-friendly operation. Whether for monitoring deliveries or keeping an eye on the front yard, it delivers reliable performance that meets modern security needs.

Pros
- Good video quality
- Comes with a wifi chime that easily connects
- Notification for someone ringing and approaching the door (when amazon delivers packages)
- works well with Wifi, ours is pretty close to wifi router
Cons
- Too expensive, $100 for the ring + $50 for the chime, and then every year you have to pay $50 more for it to save the videos it captures, otherwise there is no video history
- it is a bit too big and bulky compared to nest

Buying Ring for the first time?Why not spend the money on peace and mind is what I need. The picture quality and quick response is what is on point! Installation was made easy. I went back to BestBuy and got the spotlight pro and had no regrets. Pairing with Alexa makes it like I’m in the future with notifications and video on it. I love it that people can leave messages with the Ring pro. I’m so happy with it.

Wonderful product. Hidden inside my screen door. It still pickup movement. Picture is clear during daytime and nighttime. Almost forgot it pickup sounds too. It does everything it say it can do even through tinted glass screen door. I mounted it to a steel door using Ring No-Drill Mount.
