Let me say that am giving this 5 because it's a great product. The system needs to be better. Ring would be much better if the devices was connected to a base system and used a separate wireless signal to communicate with the camera, then the base connects to the home network for access. The cameras would operate more efficiently an you'll have less devices connected to your home network. If Arlo can do it, I know Ring can. Sometimes the signal doesn’t come through well during the day when everyone in my home is connected to the network. If ring is reading this; another suggestion is to make a motorized version of your cameras. I would like to do a pan of the area from time to time. Other than the above grip. The floodlight works well and lights the back yard pretty good without bothering the neighbors. Installation was easy. If you know how to install a ceiling fan, this is a breeze. It changes from night vision to full color quickly and the images are clear. Would have prefer 1080 at 60FPs for a smoother clearer picture. I would recommend this for purchase. Especially if you have an Alexa powered home.

Purchased units for my yard and driveway. Excellent build quality and the LED lights give a nice even illumination. The motion detection works well with a slight delay before my phone alerts me. The video recording is good quality and the audio acceptable. Installation is straight-forward, the wifi setup is simple if enough speed is available. I needed a wifi extender to achieve good performance at one location.. Very pleased.

Easy install, and simple to use. I decided to go with RING instead of ARLO because the simple 3.00 dollar a month subscription, and the 10.00 dollar a month unlimited devices subscription. From I have been reading the other companies nickel and dime you to death. The lights are very bright and motion detection is great. You can set the sensitivity and also block out time that you don't want it alerting you. Camera is clear, and retrieving videos is very simple. The alarm feature is fine, enough to call attention outside but not a siren to alert the neighborhood. The 2 way comms are fine too. You can hear what is going on and if within 20-30 feet able to have a conversation. I am very happy with this product and I have other Ring products that are great too.

I bought this to replace motion activated security lighting over my garage. I bought the hardwired system. This was easy to install and connect to my ring doorbell system. The area of motion detection can be adjusted and this unit has a feature to set the motion sensor on snooze. The video is fairly clear. It has night vision capability and an alarm. All good. The only downside is you have to buy a monthly service from Ring to save any video. Although you can get motion alerts on your phone, if you are not home it is rare that you will have good enough cellular service to watch what is going on in real time.

Floodlight + Camera together in one makes so much sense. The LED lights are bright and powerful, yet energy efficient. This light/cam is very easy to install and ring provides all of the tools you need in the box. The night vision is great quality and you'll be very pleased with the video quality. If your wifi is weak or don't have a strong signal where the light/cam is located, make sure to get a ring bridge to help increase the wifi strength. I definitely prefer the ring floodlight camera to my Google outdoor camera which was mounted just below my old floodlight camera.

This product is a great security camera. It works well for day and night vision. You are able to choose on how low or high for the motion detection. You are also able to select how wide you would like the camera to capture. It is easy to use and install.

I am impressed with the video quality. Great for both day and night vision. The motion detection to set off the video recording is impressive. It detects cars on the street about 80ft away. I had to set the motion zone not to include that area. The interesting part is that motion area does not turn on the lights. The lights on setting is a separate min/max setting. It is good but I would like it to be more sensitive to turn on the lights. The brightness is about the same as my original dual 150watt light that I replaced. It does not disappoint.

I had flood lights on my home with motion detectors, but that didn't stop criminals from burglarizing my home. I work 2nd shift so I couldn't just turn them on at 2:30pm when I'd leave to work. With the Ring Floodlight Cam, I can set a time for the lights to come on, or manually turn them on/off whenever I want with the app. I also like that the LED is a 'warm' light, and not a crazy bright white light like my old floodlights. I can also set monitoring zones, event alerts, and check out Live feeds whenever I want from my cell phone. The cameras also have two way communication so there is no reason to have these plus a Ring doorbell at an entrance. It also has its own separate siren that you can turn on if you see a creeper lurking around. At midnight I turn the lights off on my side entrance, but I can still see everything clearly with the colored Nightvision that the camera has! It is super awesome! The camera automatically records in 1080p HD when motion is detected, and the recordings are sent to the cloud in case a criminal tries to smash the camera or tries to look for the 'security tapes'. When I'm on break and when I get home, I check the motion sensor recordings on my cell phone and 'Star' anything that I think may be important. This makes it quick to find important recordings. Within a week of using the Ring Floodlight Cam, I caught a woman trying to open my car doors at 3am. The motion detector turned on the lights and I caught some video of her. I was then able to post it to the 'Neighbors' part of the app so that others could see the video and watch out for the woman. I could also share the information with the Police Department. Some people may be concerned with the price, but when you think of ALL the features you get, I am surprised it didn't cost more! HD camera recordings, two way communication, flood lights, siren, motion detectors, Nightvision, and the Smart tech that is in it and the app, all controlled with your cell phone! I would definitely recommend the Ring Floodlight Cam. I bought two of them and couldn't be happier. It only took one incident, and the whole system would have paid for itself!

The Ring cams are the only devices I have experience with but so far I'm pleased with them. I've had the Ring Door Bell and Ring Floodlight Cam for over two years. I bought another Floodlight Cam for my back yard. I was torn between the regular Ring Outdoor Cam and this one, but based on some youtube video reviews, The night time video came out better with this cam because it has better lighting. My install required adding an electrical junction box to support the cam, it feels heavy but with the junction box secured, I felt confident it would stay in place. I made sure to angle the lights to cover my backyard wall, but not to overshoot to blind the neighbor (please consider your neighbors went installing). If you feel the Ring app is slow when connecting to the camera's live view, make sure you have a good internet speed plan and decent router. My internet used to be 20Mbps, but when I upgraded mine to over 200Mbps, it helped the connection. The video load time isn't instant but still much better than before. Please keep in mind you need an active internet connection to view the camera live (and for it to record video of course), even if it's on the same network, You can view the live and old videos through the Ring App or their website. I did notice that this new camera didn't have some features (like some privacy features like disabling the mic) that my older Floodlight cam had out of the box, but the new one eventually received the missing features. Ring tends to roll out device updates in stages even if it's for the same model. In comparison to my older Floodlight cam, I don't see any quality differences (maybe there are some). Video is the same, lighting is the same, loading is the same, etc. Keep in mind, if you have the camera set to People only mode, it'll still pick up cats and dogs. I believe it's not supposed to but I don't mind.

I am happy with this purchase. The camera works well and was pretty easy to set up. Sometimes the connection from phone to camera is glitchy and speaking through the camera from phone can be garbled at times. You will need a strong wifi router for this to work well. Haven't had much of a problem with false ( branches moving or small animals) readings. So far so good!

This is a great light/camera combo. If you have an existing floodlight this is the camera to purchase. Very easy to install and you don’t have to worry about batteries. Direct replacement for an existing floodlight. Setup is simple via the Ring app, very customizable. Light is very bright, camera quality is good. I have purchased 2 more to replace all my floodlights. Only con is it’s a bit expensive, hopefully it lasts.

I got this camera for my back yard to monitor my vehicles on my parking pad. Pros: Bright light, clear video and sounds, pretty good audible alarm. Cons: After a year to a year and a half the color for video has seemed to turned to pink/purplish overlay. I have seen that this is a pretty common problem when the camera if it is in direct sign light. Overall the camera and lights are great, I would recommend it to anybody looking for an inexpensive security camera with bright lights and an audible alarm.

This is the best setup money can buy. It is nice and bright for the lights. It has a sharp image and quick notification for anything in the zone. Very easy to install. Quite simple to maintain.

Works as stated. Gives good visuals. I bought one of these for my front yard, and was so impressed I bought two more. I own two homes that are 2 hours away from each other. I hadnt tried any other brands previously, but after thoroughly researching cameras I decided on these. I am quite happy with them. After installing the app on my phone setup was seamless. These are extremely sensitive devices as far as motion control goes, and at the slightest motion the lights come on and the app starts recording. I havent had any issues with the WiFi connectivity at all. Super easy to install, and they come with all possible variations of hardware that you might need to install. The whole product is very well thought out. The only issue you may have would be with needing to adjust the camera to an angle outside of its set range. The camera is on a stem that is limited in its range of motion by a ball and socket design. I watched a YouTube video where a guy hacked this by using a dremel tool to rout out the socket a bit to increase the range of motion. This hack is important if you are hanging this flush under an eve, and need a better angle downward. Highly recommended!

Bought this as a Christmas present. They loved it! I have had my own for four or five years now. Still works like new. I initially had alarm company cameras in this area--the resolution of videos on the Ring Floodlight Cam is so much clearer. Covers a very wide area of the yard. Easily able to adjust controls to the area that you wish to capture motion in. Works as described. Easy to make adjustments so as to prevent every little thing from setting it off. Lights are very bright. Works seamlessly with Alexa. Easy to set up. Easy to use Ring App on iPhone to monitor activity in the back yard. At $30/year, Ring Protect is a bargain, allowing you to save videos for future needs. Easy to send a Ring video from the camera to others. Lights do come on without detected motion sometimes when the weather is very cold, but do turn off again by themselves. Other Ring Floodlight Cam reviewers have also noted this. Also, it does not seem that Ring has come up with a solution to this problem. However, my Floodlight Cam is hard wired so I don't worry too much about this since I'm not using up battery power. These are well worth the money, but if you look, you can frequently find them on sale somewhere. You definitely won't be sorry if you buy one!

This is my second floodlight cam and I absolutely love it. The setup was extremely easy and it literally took me less than 30 minutes for each camera. I had an existing floodlight in each location which made the installation easier. The installation kit had everything I needed including tools so I didn't have to use my toolbox, hardware kit or run back and forth to the hardware store. The setup was also extremely easy. I got connected and up and running in less than 10 minutes after installation. The key, however, is a reliable wifi/internet coverage. Really like the custom configuration. I can set sensitivities, detection zones and motion schedules very easily. The video is clear with the ability to zoom in on your cell phone. It works well at night even when the floodlights aren't on because of the IR LEDs. The coverage is also great. I have a decent size backyard and I can see almost every inch of it with adjustment of the camera. Switching between devices on the cell phone or tablet is very easy. I can easily switch between Live views on all three devices. The phone app works very well. Both my wife and I have this installed on our phones and we can access the same devices at the same time with no issues. These devices give me peace of mind when traveling or leaving my wife or kids at home. I get notices any time someone is around my home no matter where I'm traveling.

Since COVID closed down schools but I still had to work, I decided to add a few cameras to the house so I could monitor while the kids were home. I have installed and managed several professional systems over the years. I had my doubts about the claims of quality and features Ring claimed but I needed something fast and decided to give them a try. To say I was safisfied would be an understatement. Installation could not have been more simple. If you can change out a spotlight on your house, you can install a Ring spotlight camera. It was dead simple and the easiest camera I've ever setup. The field of view on this camera is huge! I can see my entire front yard, both next door neighbors, and the houses across the street from ONE camera on one corner of the house. Image quality is equally impressive. The picture is crystal clear and good enough to make out a license plate in the driveway across the street. The only downside is that you have to purchase a subscription to get full use out of the system but it is well worth the price. I get asked all the time what the best system to get for security is and Ring is hands down the best. They are a tad pricey but you get what you pay for and won't be disapointed!

Loved this so much I bought a second one to monitor the area where I park the boat and camper. They are a bit pricey at $200. Personally I think the price should be in the $125-$150 range, but they are super easy to set up, the video quality is great and the lights are very bright. You can adjust the motion detection area and sensitivity through the app.

I bought this and the doorbell Pro and installed them both in about an hour. If you are handy at all, installation is no problem. I simply replaced an existing back yard light with this unit. The app is very intuitive and set up on my wifi network was easy. You can set the "zone" that you want picked up in the app, so you are not getting false alarms from animals, etc. in other parts of your yard you don't need to protect. You can aim the camera and can control turning the lights on/off or even activating a siren through the mobile app. Great product. Would highly recommend it.
