Great view, Easy to install Camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was easy to install, great viewing angle. The only reason I give 4 stars is to battery life. Somehow its drains faster , it only came for a month. Despite all optimal settings. I am yet to reach out to ring and trouble shoot. I have set these us up at my backyard and there are some issues with stability of my internet connection. However I have got Floodlight cam and it works at just fine. There seems to be a specific problem with Spotlight cams which I need to figure out.

Falls short (though not terribly) of expectations
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had a few Ring Spotlight Cameras (battery) for a couple of months now. One failed after 1.5 months of use and after an hour of troubleshooting with a Ring technician online, it was returned for replacement. Pros: The camera operates as advertised and seems to be quite effective. Vendor is quite responsive to problems and replaced a defective unit ni a timely manner. Cons: The battery charges quite slowly (many hours) and operates for only around 10-20 days on a full charge (based on my settings), so even with two batteries (which I have in both Ring units), you'll need to recharge the batteries once or twice a month. The housing for the batteries seems (I emphasize, seems, because I don't have enough experience to know for sure) to be flimsy. I anticipate that I'll have problems with replacing the batteries after around 20 replacements. Because one of the two units looks out to a moderately busy street, I set-up that unit to recognize people and ignore other movement (e.g., traffic). I still receive more than 50% false positive alerts of people moving in the field of view.

Works Great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had to charge the battery after less than a month. I'm probably going to purchase the solar charger for this so that we don't have to keep charging it. I think the battery takes 6-8 hours to charge each time. My husband said its easy to install. The app is easy to use too. It captures cars driving by our street which is what I wanted. I do plan on buying at least 2 more of these cameras.

Great value IMO
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Super easy to install. Good video quality. Only thing I would advise anyone interested in buying these is to purchase an extra battery with it. Put my cam up and after a month I had to recharge the battery already. The unit can hold two batteries but Ring only ships you one battery.

ring system is great
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.spot light camera is easy to use and the video quality is better than average. It takes a couple of days to figure out the optimal position which depends on the surroundings/etc. It also takes time to adjust the settings in the app to the way you like them. I just make small adjustments and see how the camera responds. I continue this until I get it right. very good features and capability with the ring system.

Nice Camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good picture, works well with app. Little bulky, but far better than the Stick Up cam. Bought this one and the Ring Stick Up camera. This is the better choice, costs $20 more but gives you a spotlight, extra battery bay, alarm status light. Don't really like how the battery door closes. Feels cheap and not really closed. They could have improved on that.
