Small but powerful
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wasn't sure what to expect when I purchased this ring. Didn't want devices that required electrical hookup. So is great, power requires charging maybe every 90 days depending on usages.

Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We were having issues in our neighborhood and have had our neighbors tires stolen. That is what prompted me to buy this light/camera and since I purchased.....no more uninvited guests making the rounds in our block!

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These cameras work great. I recommend purchasing the power adapter. This will allow the camera to continue to work when the power is out. I have my WiFi connected to a UPS box. So I never have to worry about power outages.
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Camera quality
OK, but still has problems.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.OK, works well during daylight hours but motion detection is spotty at night. I should have installed the regular Ring Floodlight & Motion detection

Based on your review it seems that you are having trouble with your Spotlight Camera picking up motion at night time.

Excellent Item
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not technically good, after a short and easy installation due to Ring instructions included was great. I took us about a week or so to understand all the working and features of these cameras but the are now working flawlessly
I would recommend this to a friendLove this ring camera!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the ring camera as I purchased to see when my toddler goes out the back door. I get alerts on my Alexas and on my phone and iPad. The image clarity is fairly good but could use some improvement.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat Ring System
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased the Ring System & have enjoyed knowing who comes to the door & when. If we are out of town, we can see if the UPS etc. has delivered a package & we can have our neighbor pick it up.
I would recommend this to a friend- Cons mentioned:Battery life

Based on your review, it seems like you are having trouble keeping your Ring Video Doorbell properly charged. While batteries in Ring devices can go months between recharges with normal use, this is dependent on a number of factors in your home’s environment, such as the local weather and the number of activities captured. This article will detail some of the factors that may cause your battery to require more frequent recharges: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/208190773.
If you still have concerns regarding this, we would love to hear from you directly on our Ring Community forum.

Not installed as yet
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Daughter highly recommended this system, so we purchased for Christmas (we are old, we need nothing). Planning to install between Christmas and the New Year. Can't love or hate since they are still in the box.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Ring spotlight model of the Ring products was exactly what we needed. It is work perfectly and the setting adjustments are easy to use. The help I received during my purchase was outstanding to say the least.
I would recommend this to a friendLove these cameras.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are so fully featured. I really like that they have a real motion sensor because that means no false positives on alerts. Not to mention, I already have a ring doorbell so this integrates perfectly with my whole system
I would recommend this to a friendCamera need solar attachment if high
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent just need to put this thing on direct current. The battery lasts pretty long but I put it in a location where I have to use a ladder and hate getting it out to change the battery.
I would recommend this to a friendEasy to set up cameras
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.All as advertised with one exception that wasn't clear. They need to be wall mounted. I was hoping to prop them up and use them in temporary locations for a while but they need to be wall mounted to stay upright. Otherwise they are easy to use.
I would recommend this to a friendNice security device

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good quality video clarity. Drops wifi connection on occasion, bit not that often. Pretty good camera for the price, and the solar panel attached keeps it charged well. Overall, I find it to be a great buy
I would recommend this to a friendDecent camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am mostly pleased with this purchase. Occasionally it takes a bit to get connected to our wifi which may be more of a wifi problem than a camera problem. I do wish it would pick up motion at a little farther range than it does.
I would recommend this to a friendPretty awesome
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works really well and I'm pretty glad that we bought this camera because it's been really helpful for making sure we're safe
