It works just good enough
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Once the settings are exactly how I like them, the Ring works great. I have a flag on the porch that used to set it off but it works fine now.

Three strikes, you're out!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really wanted to like this. I have a regular security camera by my front door. This is where the Ring fell short 1. Motion zones: I moved it all over and couldn't find a good spot. It sent many false positives with trucks and some cars that drive by almost 50 feet away, yet it wouldn't trigger on a person until very close 2. No pre trigger video capture. See above problem. My Ring is hardwired to transformer. As there was no pre trigger video and I had to crank the sensitivity down to avoid traffic triggers, the video didn't capture faces anymore. Pre trigger is extremely useful to see what is causing the event leading up to the trigger 3. Lost network connection. I am very technical. I sell internet connection for a living. My Wi-Fi is strong. I had to remove the Ring and then the battery (not easy) to reset it and get it to reconnect. Strike three. I returned it.. Video quality is also poor

Great doorbell/camera
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great product I use it more as a camera. The down size is you need to put the shim if you dont have a door bell.

Helps me sleep at night
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Switching this doorbell out with the original one was a breeze (two wires). Load an app to your phone, go through a few settings and you are in business. You cannot beat the peace of mind this doorbell provides. Note in order to keep the recording of activities there is a subscription fee from Ring.

Does what it’s suppose to.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The ring doorbell I purchased does what it’s suppose to do in recording and notifying me of any motion around the front or back door or when someone rings the doorbell. The only con I really have with it is if the sunlight hits it just right it notifies you that there is motion when there is not.

Does what it should
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Reason for 4 stars is: 1.) Seems to be a little too long of a lag between button press and notifications on phone. 2.) Would be nice if video would pop up immediately & automatically when button is pressed instead of having to unlock phone & open app - had people walk away before I got all that rigor-moroll done. 3.) Have to pay for service to review videos even if motion was detected or somebody was at your door 5 minutes ago - no way to review who walked up to my door or rang my bell while I was busy at work & couldn't answer app without paying - small fee but all it all adds up. Had I known this ahead of time I may have looked into other video doorbells. The install was simple enough and it does work, just not as smoothly as it is made out to be in the marketing. Another small plus would be to be able to change the ringtone heard from the device on the outside, the one supplied is annoying - turned the volume down but now people on other side of the door can't hear me so back to the loud obnoxious ringtone.

Best doorbell ever!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is by far a great invention. Recently went on vacation and got a Ring notification that someone was at my door. Reviewed the video and saw the mail person dropping off a package. Was able to text my neighbor and have them retrieve my package until I got home a few days later. Video quality is great and so is the voice microphone works very well. Should have bought sooner.

Perfect!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've read the reviews and had to have it. This Ring doorbell is exactly what our home was missing. I can see not only who is at the door before answering it, but I can also get a perfect view of the deliveries being left at our door. We also purchased the chime to go with it, but you probably don't really need it if you keep your phone close most of the time. Highly recommend to all!

Good addition to the house
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like that the sensor can be adjusted to the desired distance, you can snooze the notifications in case you don’t want to see it all the time. It is great to keep an eye on your online packages. It’s also great that if you need to report something you can just email the video. It is extremely easy to assemble.

The original Ring has the best viewing dimensions.
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven't had a chance to use mine yet, but my daughter has this one and it is so easy to use. A bit too sensitive if you live close to the street, (even when lowering the sensitivity level), but it IS amazing everything that it captures and so inexpensive if you opt to have the year long storage of all that it has captured.

What is there bad to say about a Ring Doorbell?!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Everybody loves a ring doorbell! No complaints, except that I live on a busy street, so used to get too many notifications- but then we adjusted that and it’s way better now. We definitely rely on it before answering the door and have busted the kids when they try to sneak out lol.
