Unbelievably Useful
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works as advertised. My ONLY reasons for not 5 starts is that the newer ones have some better features and I wish there were options around the notifications.

A little difficult to connect to wifi.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to call customer support a couple of times to get this product to work. But each time i called, the person helping me was very professional and patient.

Perfect for Seeing Who's at Your Door
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted a motion activated camera (cloud for $3/mo). No brainer. Now I can ignore the boy and girl scouts when they push their overpriced cookies. ROI should be in the one year or less timeframe.

Watch the Chime!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We love our ring doorbell; however, be cautious of the doorbell chime. Before purchasing, confirm that you doorbell is compatible. We did not do this and now we have two doorbells.

A great investment
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Set up and installation was straight forward. The ring is a protector, a doorman and most of all a peace of mind when not at home to answer and keep an eye on thing with live view.

Super deal, works great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This doorbell was price led just right at $99, and didn’t disappoint. Works just as it should and has no problem detecting motion when it’s there. Great buy.

Good value, picture lacking behind newer versions
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, not displeased with the doorbell. The newer versions certainly have a better picture, but that comes with some cost. Would recommend for someone looking for a cost effective solution and not concerned as much with the video quality. Pretty easy to install. Make sure you have a good 2.4ghz WiFi signal, this does not support 5ghz signals.

Good camera battery isn’t though
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like this camera but I’m returning it and getting the Ring doorbell Version 2. Great performance as far as motion detection. Video capturing is great to. Love the 2-way communication. Just poor battery. Don’t buy if your not the handy type as removing it from mount is required to install it.

Ring expertise limited
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not sure if I would blame Best Buy or Ring.com, but the in-store reps knowledge of the product is limited to their own online descriptions. Works so far, but the motion range seems intermittent and may be affected by the front steps descending from the front door to the street. Sometimes it picks up cars driving by, yet it doesn't pick me up walking up the front sidewalk until I reach the landing.

Works ok sometimes
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have learned to not like this video doorbell. First it is on my front door which opens to my living room. My Comcast router is in the living room 15 feet from the doorbell but the doorbell has issues connecting to live view due to WiFi connection issues. All my other devices has excellent connections inside and outside of my home. I called ring who then sent me a free ring WiFi extender which seemed to help but did not completely solve the live view connection issues. I just added a ring wedge in an attempt to be able to extend the doorbells sensitivity without all the false alarms and now it will no longer recognize being hardwired. Prior to adding the wedge it was hardwired but after adding the wedge kit it only recognizes the battery. Emailed ring again, reset the device, used a multimeter to insure I had the correct voltage and still changed wires again checked voltage again and still will not recognize being hardwired. On a positive note the wedge did correct the false alarms.

Great Doorbell Replacement Door Station
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This item is great. They should also sell a transformer for replacement of old phone system door stations. It would also be nice to have advance control system integration.
