    Have only used for a few weeks but picks up motion well , even people doing yard work. Can see deliveries and respond to doorbell from anywhere.

    There may be other video doorbells that are better, but since I don't already have a pre-wired doorbell in my house, I needed a battery-operated doorbell, and this is the only one. Everything works well except that when motion is detected or the doorbell is rung, it take several seconds for the app to open up on my phone and the video starts. Once the video starts, it works well.

    the ring doorbell seems to work as advertised. Motion will send an alert which is great for deliveries left at the front door this time of year.

    The Ring Video Doorbell works great! It does have a 180 degree view and records people coming to your door. It also has a feature you can talk to the person at your door when you're not home. It is easy to install. One inconvenience is you need to charge the battery inside the device about once a month to keep it working.

    Didn't know what I was expecting of this product before purchase, besides a basic home security. But this is super versatile, even if you don't use the monthly membership option. You should definitely take the time to adjust the sensitivity as it'll go off when leaves blow by or a car drives too close. Also charge it and set it up inside before installing it outside.

    Excellent product. Works without a hitch. A bit sensitive on the movement alerts on my porch but I don't mind. They can always be silenced if you so like. Highly recommended product.

    It works well with my phone, especially during this holiday season when packages are being delivered. However, the motion detector (house is south facing) activates repeatedly throughout the day due to cars going by. I have altered the zones several times and finally set it to shut off during active times. Also, it is tied in to my electric doorbell that came with the house, but that doorbell doesn’t ring since Ring was installed. Wiring error?

    This is a great home addition allows you to monitor anyone that is in front of the door. It's great probably almost as good as subscribing to a alarm service like ADT

    The ring doorbell has been an incredible addition to our home. It was super easy to install and everything I needed came with the unit. Better yet, it upped our security game. Our front door is entirely glass so I did not like the idea of my wife answering the door home alone with our son everyday. We added ring and now she can see who is there and talk with them without needing to go to the door!

    Easy to connect to my phone. Great video and alerts. The first one had a glitch After a few months and our doorbell chimed continuously. Call tech support and worked on troubleshooting shooting and decided to send us a replacement. After that there was no problem. Nice to be away from the house and been able to talk to anyone who uses the doorbell

    It’s a great camera it does pick up quite a bit of traffic if you’re within 100 feet of the street but you can adjust some of the sensitivity.
