Bought a couple of these for around the outside of the house. Great product to keep an eye on things when your not around

Good camera - Syncs up well with other Ring cameras. Decent battery life, but if you live in a high traffic area you'll need either another battery or one of Ring's solar panels, or both.
More detection = More battery drain

I have a Ring doorbell, and this camera works great with it. Picture is very clear. We wanted this primarily when we are away on vacation just to ease our minds as we live in a more remote area. Great product. Easy to install.

Been using these cameras for a while now and they never disappoint. Users should definitely purchase the optional solar panels from Ring or the third party as you will never have to replace or charge a battery ever again. A small issue is that everything doesn't always pick up a recording depending on how far the distance is from the camera... Some things may be in view but not in good recording distance. Images are pretty clear, but probably even better on the more expensive model. Still highly recommended.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are pleased to read that you are enjoying your new Ring Spotlight Cam Plus and that the features included are meeting your expectations. At Ring, we believe in keeping people close to what’s important. That is why we are driven to create products that help you protect what matters most at home and empower you to connect with your visitors from wherever you are.

We have included some information here regarding the motion detection issue that you mentioned in your review. This camera uses adjustable motion detection and runs on passive infrared sensors. The system identifies visitors via a moving heat signature and sends a notification to your smart device when one is detected. You can adjust three preset motion zones and their distances under the "Motion Settings" tab on the device's page in the Ring app. Additionally, you can choose how often the camera checks for movement in those predefined zones via the "Motion Frequency" setting and increase the "Motion Sensitivity." If you find that your camera is missing some motions, please set the motion frequency to "Frequently."
Accuracy in motion detection can also be improved by enabling the "Smart Alerts" feature for people only in your Ring app. To enable "Smart Alerts", please follow these steps: Tap the menu (≡) on the top left. Tap "Devices." Tap the device that you want to adjust. Tap "Motion Settings." Tap "Smart Alerts." Tap "Enable Feature." Tap "Continue." Select the notification options that you want for "Person" and "Other Motion." You'll see a video camera where you can select or de-select recording and a bell icon to represent alert notifications. After you've adjusted your settings, tap "Done."
If any additional information is needed regarding your Ring Spotlight Cam Plus, please reach out to our community. Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another and share their feedback and experiences directly with Ring.

This is perfect for no outlets nearby and easy to install and no need for a professional to come out to help install unless mounting high up onto your house

Replaced a 6 year old camera with a new one. Clarity much better especially at night. The battery life is a whole lot better. Very happy with the product.

These are pretty cool! You can mount them anywhere that you have reasonable wifi access. I have one in the trees on the side of the house giving a great view of a hidden side of the house. They run on batteries. You have the option to use one or two batteries, it comes with one. Thus far, I only use one battery. To avoid stressing the battery too much I do not let the battery get below 45% or so. I get about 5-6 weeks out of one battery. The light power is so so. But the low light camera is very impressive. As I write this, I think Ring allows an unlimited number of cameras on their system for $100 a year (I think). Which is means you can check all of your cameras cameras on your phone or web site whenever you like. All in all, a pretty cheap method of monitoring your property.

We have been using Ring for about 4 years. This camera by far is the best. When live viewing the picture it super clear and the interaction sound is awesome. We have it setup above our garage but angled to view the front door. The range is wider than the previous version it covers basically our front area and parts of our neighbors on both sides.
