Great concept, poor execution
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been admiring the Ring doorbell since it was released and finally bought one last week. After using it for only one week, it is clear this device has many shortcomings. The camera on the Ring is motion activated, which means it is not recording until motion is detected. This would be fine if the motion detection was consistent. Unfortunately, it is often tripped by cars driving by but will completely miss a package being delivered. I have yet to see someone walking up to my door, which happens on a daily basis. One would expect motion to be detected before a person could Ring the doorbell, but it takes too long for the recording to start for this to happen. All of my recordings are missing the critical events because the recording took too long to begin. The next issue is the video quality. It is too blurry to make out faces and the brightness is not adjustable. This means you will be able to see someone at the door but you won't be able to identify them unless they put their face up to the camera. The Ring is a complete disappointment for me. I will be returning this doorbell for a proper camera.

Posted .Hi EBorchartd,
I am sorry to hear about your poor Ring experience. Setting up the motion detector does require a bit of maneuvering to find the sweet spot, however, we can assist you with honing these settings to make sure you receive the alerts that matter to you. Additionally, I would appreciate the chance to connect with you directly so that I can investigate the poor video quality that you are experiencing. Would you be so kind as to email me at Kaitlyn.rosenthal@ring.com?
I would appreciate the chance to drastically improve your Ring experience.

Good so far
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It seems to do the job, my modem is not that far from the ring and if seems to not get the best signal. Some of the footage is staticky or it takes a while for me to see the live view

Ring Rocks!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my 2nd Ring doorbell and it's just so dang easy to install, and to use. I love being able to keep an eye on my front door, as well as my front sidewalk and driveway from my camera. I also use the battery as I do not have a hardwire out to my front courtyard gate. The battery lasts for a few months and let's me know when it is running low.
