    One nice feature, other than the camera of course, is that it can be wired to existing doorbell. This allows the doorbell to continue to be used and it keeps the battery charged.. Camera picture very sharp for the price of the unit.

    Best investment I could have bought. Easy to install, love how clear the picture is and how much of my driveway you can see. Also other good features other ring users can send you a message saying a bear is in the neighborhood.

    At first I wasn't sure this was going to work how I wanted but it was exactly as advertised. You do need to buy a subscription to get all the add ons but that cost $30 a year. Worth it, I've been out of the country and been able to speak to people at my door.

    I absolutely love our Ring! As a person recently diagnosed with physical disabilities, I love having easy access to anyone who comes to my door. I can not only see who rings the doorbell, but also communicate with the person whether I am in my home or not.

    Bought two on line, one for my house and one as a Christmas present for my son. Had my daughter pick up in store 30 minutes after I ordered them. They work great and very easy to set up and install. Haven’t had to charge since Christmas.

    We bought this device for our son. He and our daughter in law just had a baby last month. We feel better knowing that this will give them a little more security when their hands are full with our grandson.

    It was pretty easy to install, I had my cousins do it for me. They used the wiring from my own doorbell. I didn't want to have to remove and charge it! No issues so far and pretty cool to be able to answer your door when you are on the other side of town!

    Am very impressed with the camera. It installed on the existing doorbell. Even though it is installed perpendicular the door, we can see the all the way down the walkway to the street. The camera is clear and has a good notification system. We have not used the voice part yet.

    Wanted to get a virtual doorbell for a while, but didn’t want to break the bank. For under $100, this thing can’t be beat. We run ours off our existing Wifi but you can also hard-wire it into an existing doorbell if you wish. Video quality isn’t half bad either.

    The battery inside does not last long are they have to be recharged. If the battery was able to be removed and replaced with actual batteries it would be better. All on all its a great start for the money.

    First one I had to order to get antique brass color. Package did not have mounting bracket.Brought back to store - first guy said it did not appear anything missing. Finally talked to another guy who immediately realized something was missing - traded it for another one in the store. Unfortunately only had siliver (which I do not like). Installed per intructions. Not easy if you have brick due to fact that some bricks could not drill deep enough. Thank God I did not opt to connect to my existing door bell. I am sure I would not have been able to drill brick to line up with mounting holes and then I would have had exposed wire. Not easy to attach securely to the bracket. Gives the chimes alert delayed. I get the back of the UPS guy as he is walking away. I called Ring Support and ran speed test. Appears I need a Wi-Fi booster. Obviously they encounter this often since they have info on their website - even recommending 2 brands. I did review prior and saw no mention of this. Also my house faces West and even though I have a covered porch the image is distorted by the sun. I can see clearly on my porch about 5 feet. However, past the porch the sun bleaches out the image completely and it looks like a white out. They should have a filter that can adjust to lighting conditions. Ring Support suggested I remove the ring device and tilt the bracket down. I have tried that and it does not help much at all. My router is only about 10-12 feet from the Ring device. But when doing the speed test it is only half the speed of when I am at my desk with my router. So at this point in time until I spend more $$ to purchase a WiFi booster to see if it increases the speed and I actually get the alert as someone is approaching my door and not their back as they are leaving - I am not very impressed and do not think it is worth the price and would not recommend.

    I really like this ring product. Installation was easy. You can adjust settings like motion and distance to your liking. You also, can see what is going on in your neighborhood with neighbors that have ring. Great purchase!
