    Works as advertised. The two way audio is helpful for when you are not home and the vIdeo is great quality. The only thing causing it to not get the fifth star is the motion sensor. It is too sensitive and alerts from cars driving in front of the house, even on the lowest setting.

    This is a nice, easy to install video doorbell. I'd recommend hardwiring it to avoid having to charge the battery. Be warned that after your trial, you will have to pay to access stored videos. You'll still be able to tune in live for free.

    Decided to be cheap and snag the original model of the Ring doorbell. Let me say that I have NO complaints, it's just a bit outdated. How so? You have to take off the entire unit to charge, whereas the newer models allow you to simply replace batteries. This means that you will have moments with the doorbell not being attached while you're charging the unit. Also, the newer models are 1080p quality, while this is 720p. Lastly, newer models have night-vision capabilities. Are these additions game-changers? Perhaps. Is this original model a bad buy? Absolutely not, but if you're going to invest in other Ring items, I would highly recommend at least buying the Ring Doorbell 2 so you can enjoy a wider range of features and utilize the convenience of removable battery packs across all devices.

    Ring has proven to adequately and accurately detect motion and works well as a doorbell. Battery management is not confidence inspiring. Battery goes from almost full to the "charge now" empty setting suddenly and without any progression. In other words, my battery doesn't drain from 100 to 75 to 50 to 25 etc. It goes from ~100 to nothing. If that weren't enough, when I go to plug it in, it becomes fully charged again within 20 minutes or so. Something not quite right there. Also, Ring unit does not sit perfectly flush on the plastic (yes plastic) attachment plate. So when I undo one of the two connection screws, the unit typically detaches. I'm sure this isn't the intended design.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
