Customer Ratings & Reviews

After using the Ring Floodlight Cam Pro 2 for a little over a week, I’m impressed with how much better it is compared to my older Ring floodlight model. Since I was replacing a first gen(early adopters) Ring floodlight cam, installation was surprisingly quick, the wiring matched up perfectly, and the Ring app walked me through the rest. Setup, connection to Wi-Fi, and adding it to my existing Ring devices took just a few minutes with no issues. Once installed, the upgrades became obvious right away. It took few minutes for the firmware upgrade and once done it was up in running. The 4K Retinal video quality is a huge step forward. During the day, the footage is sharp with excellent color accuracy. At night, the low-light clarity is even more noticeable, everything looks brighter and clearer without relying solely on the floodlights. I’ve zoomed in, and the footage stays usable even at 10x zoom, which wasn’t possible with my older camera. The radar based 3D motion detection is another feature I’ve to appreciate through daily use. After adjusting the detection and light zones, the alerts became incredibly accurate. I get notifications only for actual activity inside my yard. The bird’s eye view map is surprisingly helpful because it shows exactly where motion happened. Over the week, I haven’t had any false alerts, which is a big improvement over my previous model. The floodlights are extremely bright and very customizable. I currently have them set around the mid-range of the lumen scale, and even at that level, they cover my entire driveway and side yard. They activate reliably whenever motion is detected in the chosen zones. The lights come on instantly, and after a week of nightly activity they’ve performed perfectly. Notifications arrive quickly, and the two-way audio with the Audio+ enhancement is clear with practically no lag. The ring app continues to be a strong point of the ecosystem. Being able to link this camera with my other ring devices, customize zones, and see a detailed timeline view of events makes monitoring the property smooth and convenient. After a solid week of daily use, I’m very pleased with this floodlight cam pro. The clearer video, smarter motion detection, and brighter lights make a noticeable difference in home security. If you already use Ring products, this feels like a true next-generation upgrade.

I got the Ring - Floodlight Cam Pro (2nd Gen) Retinal 4K Camera to install over the garage. I had a previous flood light hard wired there, so it was actually pretty easy to perform the install without needing an electrician, but make sure you take all safety precautions, shut off power to the circuit or hire a professional if need be. Everything is included - Camera, Hardware Kit, Installation Hardware, Set Up Guide, Security Sticker. Once the unit is wired and power turned back on, you start with downloading and installing the Ring App on your phone that requires you to create an account, and follow the step by step instructions in the App to add the new camera to your Wi-Fi network. Obviously if you already have other Ring devices like a doorbell camera, all you have to do is add the new floodlight cam pro. Image quality is superior to the previous 1080p generations I had, both during the day and during the night, especially once the floodlights kick in which gives you crisp color images and video. Those floodlights are super bright at 2,000 lumens - do not look directly at them - you could damage your vision. The camera has the usual 2-way audio built-in but I don’t think I’ll be using this feature much as I rarely have anyone come up to the garage door to enter the house. Motion detection has also been improved, now with Radar Powered 3D detection. Additionally one of my favorite features is now the 10x Enhanced Zoom that truly shows some great details when zooming in to license plates or people’s faces. Motion detection zones are totally customizable and so are the notifications and linking with other Ring cameras to trigger synchronized recording. Unfortunately Ring cameras do not have a memory card slot for local video recording, so if you want to capture any events either manually or triggered by motion you’ll have to pay for the cloud storage/recordings. There are only a few lower budget cameras that still offer a micro-SD slot for local recording and only require a paid subscription for more advanced “AI” features. Overall, this is a greatly improved camera with tons of useful features that work very well within the Ring App ecosystem.

One of the most important issues today is home security, so having an efficient security system is essential. This floodlight camera has everything you need to keep your home safe. The box includes the camera, installation hardware, hardware kit, user guide, and security sticker. Installation is relatively easy if you already have a connection. Then, to set it up, it is necessary to use the Ring app. Once configured, you can proceed to make adjustments depending on your needs, from light brightness, video quality, Low-Light Sight, motion detection areas, to purchasing a subscription to get more out of this device. In terms of performance, I think the video quality is quite good, the image is clear and sharp, and the night mode works better than I expected. The microphone works very well, as does the speaker. The lights provide more than enough illumination, and the motion sensor does its job satisfactorily. Overall, this Ring floodlight camera has features that make its price worthwhile, such as video quality, field of view, customization, integration with other Ring security devices, night mode, etc. It is easy to install and includes everything you need to do so. Personally, I have other Ring products at home, and so far, the experience has been satisfactory. They are very solid products that are easy to use and understand. I can definitely recommend them.

This Ring camera needs to be hard wired so it does take some electrical skill to set up. We replaced our regular outside front garage light with this Ring camera . Once it is connected, you just need to download the Ring app. and connect the camera to your Wifi. There is a yearly subscription fee, but I think it has is reasonably priced . Within the Ring app, there are multiple settings. I prefer the wired version since I leave this house for 6 months and the battery might not last. The app allows you to have zones for monitoring, motion, sensitivity, and schedules. Within the app, you can also control turning on the light or set it to automatically turn on with activity.The camera can give you an audio alert on your phone or iPad. The resolution of the monitored activity and the Live View is very clear. It is easy to scroll through the activity that has been captured. Since the camera is not running continuously, it sometimes does miss some activity. Amazon dropped off a package but the person wasn’t captured or if I back out of the garage, sometimes my car doesn’t show up. I deal with this by having multiple cameras and some on inside and simply placed in a window. This camera has excellent night vision and many times notices animals walking up our driveway. Since I have previous experience with the Floodlight Wired camera, it tolerates the cold Winters of northern Wisconsin and also the extreme heat of Arizona. These outdoor cameras provide great security for monitoring the outside of your house. I highly recommend this camera.

This is my first Ring camera, but not my first outdoor camera. However, this is the best outdoor camera I've had. It just works flawlessly out of the box, and has way more options and features than most other cameras I've used. It's notifications are also much more reliable and it never misses motion. It has options for excluding areas for motion detection, and combines it with its radar motion detection to be able to exclude motion based on distance, which is super clever. The lights are plenty bright, though my backyard and where the light is mounted is a bit awkward and I couldn't quite get the lights pointed where I wanted, but it ultimately has ended up still providing good lighting coverage. The color temperature of the lights isn't the super cold blueish that many LEDs have, and is a more warmer natural color, which I prefer. It has a speaker and mic so if you need to speak with someone outside, you can communicate through your phone. Some outdoor doorbells and cameras I've used have terrible outdoor speakers. This one is actually pretty good, and voices are clear, so you can actually hold a brief conversation without everyone going "huh, what?" all the time. The only downside is to get all these features, is you do need the Ring subscription. I've avoided subscription cameras in the past, but Ring does have these cameras figured out, and I might be convinced you get what you pay for.

I'll start by saying I am upgrading from the Ring Floodlight Cam+, so my review is based on a comparison between my old Ring Floodlight Cam and this 2nd Gen 4K Floodlight Cam Pro. Design wise, this looks about the same as previous models but if you look closer, you'll see the floodlight have doubled in size and the camera has a different design. Installation is easy (from an upgrade) but even originally it's straight forward and the ring app will walk you through the process. Just make sure you turn off your power at the breaker first, or if you're unsure - get handyman or electrician to help. You will need to get a 4" round electrical box if you're not upgrading from an existing floodlight (costs about $10) and you'll need some caulk, but otherwise everything else is included. It takes under an hour to physically install, app setup is about 3-5 minutes and is easy. In use, I've found the Floodlight Cam Pro really great. Given it's winter right now and so dark, I have been really able to put everything to test. Video quality is significanlty better and the 4K really makes a difference when you zoom in, Ring have also made improvements to the low light sensor and I have picked up more late night animal crossings e.g. rabbits, deer, foxes, making their way through our yard. I think they have also improved the microphone and speaker, as it seems the audio "you are being recorded" messages are clearer but truly the best upgrade is the floodlights, I can cover my whole yard now and the wider lamps mean I can angle the coverage better. Overall, brilliant upgrade and worth buying (and definitely worth buying over the older 1080 Ring Floodlight Cam).

With all the flood light, or pseudo flood light cameras out there, it seems rare anymore to find one that truly has the flood lights we expect for the side of the house plus a decent camera. Most have lights that wont reach the ground for any decent amount of height or the cameras aren't great quality. That's where the Ring floodlight cam pro comes in, and addresses both concerns. Packaging: Straightforward, packed with the floodlight cam, hardware, literature and mounting materials needed to get it up and rolling. The device is solid and should withstand weather for years. The two articulating lights and camera are well made, and being that it is Ring you know it's a name that many have begun to associate as a defacto standard in home camera security Installation: Fortunately I was just swapping an existing camera, the home mount worked fine, I was able to rotate the cameras and lights for an upside down top mount instead of a side mount as pictured, wiring worked as expected for any normal flood light installation Use: They function with the Ring app which is great since I already have a ring doorbell camera. There is logic and intelligence applied to this camera as with the ring doorbell camera as well, motion sensing, light enabling and disabling, among other settings. The camera quality is excellent being that it is 4K so it really is a dramatic upgrade compared to most cameras in this segment Overall: I strongly recommend this camera to someone that needs a true flood light with an excellent camera for their home.

Ring has almost perfected the home security camera with the Ring Floodlight Cam Pro (2nd Gen) Retinal 4K! The latest update adds the Ring-exclusive Retinal 4K -- arguably the best clarity, to your day and night-time videos. Overall Verdict: This is a powerhouse floodlight camera with best-in-class performance, but its true value is heavily dependent on committing to the highest-tier subscription plan. +++ Pros: What You'll Love! +++ 1) Retinal 4K Video Resolution with Auto HDR + At this point, 4K/UHD and HDR should be standard features that all security cameras ship with. 2) Floodlight brightness: + Easily casts over 30 feet of light—great for large coverage areas. The light also makes the color videos much better than the black and white, which is rare. 3) Excellent app + Quick and easy setup within the Ring app (about 7 onboarding screens). + The app is intuitive with Quick Controls (e.g., easily toggle flood lights off/on or activate the siren). Common functions like video history, sharing, Smart Video Search, Calendar view, and Quick Replies are easily accessible. 4) Seamless Echo Show integration + Easy to set up with Echo Shows. This convenience allows for easy viewing of video events without having to reach for a phone. --- Cons: What Could Be Better --- 1) Costly subscription model. - A subscription is required to really get the most out of Ring cameras. Most people likely already have a Ring doorbell, which pushes you into a more expensive mid (Ring Home Standard, currently $9.99/month or $99.99 annually) - or high-tier (Ring Home Premium, currently $19.99/month or $199.99 annually) subscription, since the Basic tier is only for single cameras. - Forced Bundling = Value Mismatch: Core camera functionalities, like 24/7 Recording and advanced Smart Search, are bundled only in the Ring Home Premium subscription tier, which includes Professional Monitoring. This forces users to pay for an emergency response service they might not want just to unlock the camera's full potential. 2) Technical hardwired installation - We live in a day in age where most things we purchase are standard wall outlets or USB. This is NOT the case. This is not a standard wall outlet plug-and-play setup. If you're not comfortable with electrical wiring, you may need to hire someone, as it is intended to be installed where a hardwired floodlight currently is. A plug-in kit is needed for a wall-plug output, but still requires some electrical knowledge. 3) Wind noise really interferes with audio recording - They need a noise cancellation feature for this (maybe this can be a software-based future update). 4) Digital zoom only - at this point, there should be SOME kind of optical zoom (like the first 3x or 5x). Without it, the 4K quality is quickly degraded when zooming. This also contributes to a slight washing out of detail in video when viewing in color at night. #PRO TIP: The settings are VERY extensive. I found it quite humorous that it takes longer to navigate all the different menus and options than it does to physically install and on-board the camera. You'll want to set aside around 45-60 minutes to be able to fully go thru everything as this is how you configure the cameras behaviors (what to record, what to ignore, how long to keep the floodlights on, when and how long to record, how to record - e.g. video only or audio to comply with local laws, etc.) *** Wish List: Future Features *** 1) Noise cancellation for wind. 2) Animal detection * This seems like an odd omission since most cameras on the market can detect people, vehicles, animals and packages. 3) Pan/tilt with auto-tracking * May require some design tweaks but would keep Ring as the standard in home security cameras. ??? Who might this be for ??? This camera is the perfect choice for users who are already invested in the Ring ecosystem, are comfortable with electrical wiring (or willing to hire someone that is), and are willing to pay for the highest subscription tier to get all the best features.

Great video quality, bright lights, and reliable motion alerts. Easy setup and works smoothly with the Ring app. Solid security camera.

Great video quality! Bright softwhite lights match most normal outside lights.
