    It’s chimes all the time there’s motion and drains my battery. Only lasts like 4 days. I have to get a solar battery recharge. I would like for it just to detect people. Overall I’m happy with it

    There good camera during the day it’s got a great view and night time when Turing on lights gives a color view. The only downfall is that the sensors don’t always pick up movement and sometimes might do it to late. Most of the time it works.

    I purchased two of the Ring Spotlight cams battery operated. One cam quit working after a few month which was a little annoying. Ring customer service was awesome and sent a new one out within a week. Great company!

    Good camera but the battery is only lasting around 10 days. Ring states that there was too much activity and that is why the battery doesn't last long. I now have to buy another battery so I can extend the time to maybe a month. Wish I'd gotten the wired camera.

      Hi Bestbuyfan,

      Oh no, I am sorry to hear about your poor battery life experience, however, I would like to step in and help. Battery life is contingent on usage so the volume of alerts you receive per day will affect it but we can provide optimal settings to conserve your battery. Would you kindly email me at [email protected]?

      I would like to improve your Ring experience ASAP.

    Having wireless option is what I wanted. This product exceeded my expectations. Great coverage, very nice resolution. I ended up purchasing secon battery (it comes with only one). Connects seamlessly with Alexa. Recommended.

    I like the camera very clear and you have an option if battery or wired. The subscription to monitor your house much cheaper than other competitors. $10 a month or $100 a year.

    Functional security camera

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The ring cameras and doorbell have been reliable in terms of function and everyday use. This battery operated version does what it’s supposed to do: watch for suspicious activity on your property. I bought an extra battery pack and solar panel accessory to keep this camera running. It’s pricey like all other Security cameras, but it’s worth the investment. The subscription plan and ring app are very helpful since other ring users in the community can share and report suspicious activity in the neighborhood. All That being said, security cameras such as ring will only perform well, depending on how good your Wifi connection is. So make sure you have WiFi that’s good and able to reach this camera, depending where you place it. Overall, I’m happy with this purchase and plan on buying a couple more.

    We REALLY like the Ring Spolight Cam that is wire-free. Since we have the Ring Doorbell Pro that is wired, we weren't sure how well the wireless would be able to take pictures, video, etc. But, it's GREAT!!!!

    The video is crystal clear during the day, but day isn't as clear. I also own the Floodlight and the night is crystal clear. It may do better is you have additional lighting. It's water proof and easy to install.

    This camera is a basic motion security camera. It comes with only one battery (will take two) and can be powered by a Ring solar panel. It running off batteries, if there is a lot of movement, the batteries will die quickly. It is best to run two batteries or off a solar panel. You can also adjust settings with the app. Ring cameras do not work well with low Internet speeds (DSL). By the time you get the alert, open to view, the person is gone. Others probably are the same. The integration to the app is good and video service contracts are affordable (not required to function).
