The camera door bells were easy to set up and work right out of the box. Had to mount on brick which was tough but doable. Took several days for my wife to be able to access my account. Probably a cloud thing.

Using the Ring Battery Doorbell (Venetian Bronze) for a few weeks now, and I'm really impressed with its performance. Setup was quick and easy, even without hardwiring. The battery holds a solid charge, and recharging is straightforward.

The camera has a clear picture and a great range as I can see the cars on the roadway 250 feet away. The battery has a very good life as I charged it out of the box to ensure it was fully charged and have not charged it in 22 days. I will definitely be purchasing another doorbell to add to the other entrance.

I recently installed the Ring Battery Doorbell in Venetian Bronze and I’m absolutely thrilled with its performance and sleek design. The setup was incredibly easy, and I was up and running in no time thanks to the simple app integration. The video quality is crystal clear, even at night, and I love the head-to-toe view it provides—it's like having an extra set of eyes at my doorstep.

Good picture quality - easy installation and long battery life
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I’ve been a Ring customer for many years now, and have found their products and ecosystem to be very reliable and affordable. This is the first time I have tried a battery powered camera, the rest of my collection are all wired. I have to say that while the overall performance of this new battery doorbell is good, it pales in comparison to the wired counterparts I have installed in other locations at my home. I installed this on a secondary entrance to my house that does not have any way to hardwire a doorbell, and it is very close to a mesh unit for my wifi. However, in spite of the nearby WiFi it regularly disconnects, and when it doesn’t have internet issues it simply misses motion entirely. I have exited my house from this particular door a few times since installing it and it has completely missed me passing right in front of it more than once. The motion sensitivity setting is even set to be at a higher level than my other cameras that never miss a beat. It just feels a lot less reliable than what I’m used to from years of experience with my other Ring devices.
Its not all bad however, as the build quality and video quality are both excellent. It feels premium and the head-to-toe video is a nice thing to have matching up with my other doorbell which is the pro model that also shares that feature. It charges with USB-C on the backside which requires removing it from the mounting plate when needed. It does not include any sort of wedge to change the angle at the install location so I had to buy an adapter separately to get the angle I needed which is also unfortunate. Setup was simple and quick and installing it including mounting my adapter was easy. You can hardwire this doorbell optionally if you have the ability to do so, and I would recommend that if you can. But for those who cannot, the battery life appears to be less than stellar as mine is at 64% after less than a week of being installed having put a full charge on it first and only having recorded half a dozen motion events in that time. Motion detection is spotty, and it can take quite a while longer to wake it up for a live view than on the wired one I have. It is overall better than other video doorbells I have used from competitors, but not as good as Ring’s own offerings from higher up on the ladder which makes sense. My own experience may be slightly skewed due to the hardwired nature of my other devices making this one feel like it’s hampered in comparison, but I also feel like there are certainly worse options out there which is why I’d still recommend this doorbell depending on your individual situation. What this proves to me is that hard wiring is still king but given no other options it’ll still do a decent job with a few drawbacks.
Thank you for taking the time to share your response with us and other consumers. We understand how important it is for your Ring Battery Doorbell to function consistently and reliably, so you are alerted to any wanted or unwanted activity in or around your home. Having a solid connection ensures you do not miss any activity around your home. We are here to provide you with some information to resolve the battery life and connection issues you mentioned in your review.
It sounds like you are experiencing issues with the device in regards to connection and battery life. There are some troubleshooting steps that you can take to ensure that you have your device set up for optimal performance. While batteries in Ring devices can go months between recharges with normal use, this is dependent on a number of factors in your home's environment, such as the local weather and the number of activities captured. The more events captured by your Ring Battery Doorbell, the more your battery is used to power the live HD video stream to your device. Even if you do not answer the call, video is still sent from your Ring product to the Ring servers. In addition, the battery is also drained each time you use the live view to look at or speak through your camera. As most of our Ring cameras and doorbells are powered by lithium-ion batteries, it's important to note that at temperatures below 40 °F, the battery is less effective at holding a charge and may require more frequent recharges. There are some troubleshooting steps that you can take to ensure that you have your device set up for optimal performance.
You can go to Power Settings in the Ring app to see what features may be draining your battery.
To access Power Settings, open the Ring app:
Tap the menu (≡) on the top left of the dashboard. Tap Devices. Tap the individual device (video doorbell or security camera) you want to check. Tap Power Settings to check your "Battery Level" percentage and "Feature Power Usage." Tap a feature to adjust "Snapshot Capture," "Motion Frequency," and "Video Recording Length."
We recommend using the Ring Solar Charger or the Ring Plug-In Adapter to assist with extending the life of the battery in your Ring Battery Doorbell. The Ring Solar Charger for Ring Battery Doorbell is a solar power source that can be mounted behind your Ring doorbell. The Ring Plug-in Adapter (2nd Generation) is designed to convert battery-powered video doorbells so they can run using line current.
A poor wifi signal can cause connectivity with your Ring device to be unreliable. Check the Device Health section of your Ring application to ensure the device’s RSSI is within an acceptable range. The recommended range for optimal performance is 0 to -60 for the RSSI.
If your networking equipment hasn’t been power-cycled in a while, try unplugging it for 30 seconds and plugging it back in. Wireless networks utilize different channels for communication. In the United States, the 2.4 GHz band uses channels 1-11 and the 5 GHz band uses channels 36-165. In some cases, setting up your Ring device(s) can fail due to wireless interference or congestion.

I love the ring cam! I work out of town so I can have a live look at my porch anytime I want! The picture is clear in both the daylight and the dark. The sound quality is good, and connectivity is good (considering I'm borrowing Wi-Fi from the neighbor right this min). It was easy to install and setup!

Perfect product for the application. Needed a budget friendly option for a senior citizen. Ring is one of the best residential camera products. I use them on at home and on other homes in my family.

One of my best purchases! This camera works great and has a great battery life. My neighbors constantly set my camera off, but it holds the charge very well! Definitely will be purchasing more!
