    In my pursuit of enhancing home security with a blend of elegance and functionality, the Ring Spotlight Cam Pro has proven to be an exemplary choice. Its sleek design seamlessly integrates into the home’s exterior, offering both aesthetic appeal and advanced surveillance capabilities. The 2K HDR video quality delivers crisp and clear visuals, ensuring that every detail is captured with precision. The radar-powered 3D Motion Detection and Bird’s Eye View features provide a comprehensive overview of activity around the property, enhancing situational awareness . The dual-band Wi-Fi connectivity ensures a stable and fast connection, facilitating real-time alerts and live streaming without interruption.  The integration with the Ring app allows for intuitive control and customization, enabling me to tailor the settings to suit the specific needs of my residence. The two-way talk feature, complemented by advanced noise cancellation, ensures clear communication, while the built-in LED lights and siren serve as effective deterrents against unwelcome visitors .   While the device offers a plethora of advanced features, it’s worth noting that some functionalities, such as video recording and extended storage, require a Ring Protect Plan subscription. However, the core features provide substantial value even without the subscription.  Overall, the Ring Spotlight Cam Pro stands as a testament to thoughtful design and technological innovation, offering peace of mind through its reliable performance and user-friendly interface.

    So I have had some time to fully test these Ring cameras. Lets start off with the install. Very easy to install really if you can use a drill your golden . Setting up was a no brainer . The app is very basic and easy to navigate. I do recommend getting the solar panel to charge your device if you cannot place near a plug . They work well and stay charged. As far as the camera itself they lag when something has entered its field, but does manage to catch whatever is in its range. The nightime camera is good to a point, it does not focus well , even though i have it set at factory specs. Maybe iam missing something here. The main two cameras i have light up very well. When something enters its zone it will give great detail . Great products. Iam happy

    It's an amazing electronic security camera. Even in dim lighting, it provides clear video clarity. The motion detection feature is excellent; it instantly notifies me when there is movement. I can watch my property from anywhere with ease thanks to the app's user-friendly UI and easy setup process. All things considered, I heartily suggest it to anyone searching for trustworthy home protection.

    This is easily my favorite Ring product to date, and I am fully invested in the Ring ecosystem. Installed this quickly and easily on the exterior of my brick rowhouse located on a moderately busy downtown street. Setup was simple and I was able to easily integrate this into my Ring home security profile. Mounting was straightforward. Placing this on the corner of the house allows me to see the street, sidewalk, gate, and entire side yard of my home thanks to the wide angle the HD camera captures. Offers me peace of mind that any passerby who might be up to no good would be in full view of the camera. The speaker in this is LOUD. I tested it out on my partner who was gardening outside and he was quite startled by the volume, but would be incredibly useful to deter anybody who was unwelcome. One thing to note, this is NOT a floodlight. The lights on the camera are not very bright, and seemingly have no effect on the clarity of the video at night (which is already excellent in night mode)…more or less the lights are a feature that can be turned on to signal to somebody that they are on camera. This model runs on the standard Ring quick-release battery pack. It comes with one installed, and has a second compartment for another battery to be installed to lessen the frequency of necessary charging, which is amazing! Overall, I am obsessed with this offering from Ring. I often check in on the app just to see how busy the neighborhood is throughout the day while I’m away at work. Absolutely love it!

    Overall it’s good quality worth the money the actions you can’t take via phone app. Motion detection & all the videos that stays recorded it’s amazing you never know when you need to look back but knowing that the videos are saved is amazing. Microphone is very clean & sharp. Easy to set up, long lasting especially for batteries. sharing access is also amazing.

    This camera works great, I like that you have the ability to have satellite imagery detecting every step of the person from when they came on your property and follow there walkabouts. You can easily turn it back to picture mode or watch both at the same time, the picture is amazing even night vision is very clear. I also brought a 16 foot cable to keep the batteries charged so I don't have to take them out to charge them every couple of months works great.

    My Ring doorbell and security camera works great and the app is easy to download, setup and use. It’s very inexpensive to add monitoring to your device(s). No wired these devices is the best-it works WiFi is good as long as you keep the batteries charged. Remember usage will drain the batteries. Be sure to utilize the settings to manage your devices and you will get good results. We have been extremely happy with these products that we will install a complete ring security system when we move in 3 months.

    This is an excellent product. Ring pro products are wonderful. You have several options in setting it up to provide you with security. You set it up to notify you if it sees a human or for anything. You can set it to work in conjunction with another ring alarm so that both lights will come on if one is activated. There other functions as well that will really make you happy.

    The Ring Spotlight Cam Pro Battery with 2K video is an excellent upgrade for home security. The video quality is impressively sharp, even at night, and the motion alerts are sometimes quick and accurate but are for the most part. The built-in spotlight and siren add extra peace of mind, while the rechargeable battery makes it easy to maintain without messy wiring. Setup is simple through the Ring app, and two-way audio works perfectly for quick communication. A great choice for anyone wanting powerful, wireless home protection. I thought the light would be a bit brighter but its good enough

    I had an older versing of the ring cameras. Just wanted to update my equipment. This company to me has one of the best home surveillances, that you can buy and easy to install yourself. The set lasted me over ten years and still worked, so I donated it to the mission so someone else can have an secure home.

    Purchased this Ring camera for above the garage doors. Perfect to see any motion detection especially at night or in the early morning hours. So far seen cats & a fox prowling early morning hours. Great video quality & not a bad price. Ring brand is a great brand. Definitely recommend this camera.

    RING SPOTLIGHT CAMERA #1

    Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I'm very pleased with my purchase of the Ring Spotlight Cam battery operated. This is my fourth Ring camera, I have two Floodlight cams and of course the doorbell cam. I position my Spotlight cam on my back fence facing the house where there is no power outlet. The Spotlight Cam can hold two batteries at once. I'm still testing the limits of the batteries but, so far it's been about six weeks in and one battery read 53% and the second battery read 95%. When I removed the battery that read 53% and replaced it with one that read 100% the second battery that read 95% dropped to 55%. What that tells me is both batteries drain down together all though the readings on the Ring app said 53% in slot one and 95% in slot two. If I had to be away from home for more than two months I'd might consider getting the solar panel adapter. I 100% recommend the Ring Spotlight Cam battery operated.

    Critical Review: Ring Spotlight Cam Pro

    |

    Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    There are a few positives worth mentioning. The video quality is clear, and the spotlight is bright enough to cover a decent area. It’s easy to set up, easy to install, and the app has a clean, intuitive interface that makes it simple to use and manage settings. If you use two batteries, the battery life is fairly respectable — better than expected for a wireless setup. That said, this camera has its flaws — some of them major. Motion detection is inconsistent. In most cases, it will register motion, but if someone is moving quickly, they’ll already be out of frame by the time it actually records and sends you an image. If you don't have a subscription you cannot watch that part. That delay defeats the purpose of having a security camera in the first place. The subscription part defeats the purpose of buying a premium wireless camera. But what really gets under my skin is the pricing model. You pay for a premium camera, only to find out that basic features like person and vehicle alerts require a monthly subscription. It's ridiculous. I’ll admit I’m a little biased — I had a wired system that includes these features without any extra cost. But this whole tech-bro model of locking features behind a subscription just feels like a cash grab. It's built to extract ongoing fees for something that should be standard out of the box. Bottom line: I’m switching back to a wired system that gives me more functionality without nickel-and-diming me every month. If you're serious about home security, I don’t see how this camera qualifies as a reliable solution.

      Hi ChrisB.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. At Ring, we want to ensure that you have the best possible experience with our products. Your peace of mind and security are extremely important to us. The features and technology provided by the Ring Spotlight Cam Pro are incredibly valuable and help provide you with peace of mind about your home security. Rest assured, we're here to help!

      It sounds like you are concerned with the need for the Ring Home Plan subscription. At Ring, we work hard to be completely transparent in both our products, and the optional services in which we provide. The Ring Home Plan is mentioned on our Ring packaging, on our website, and in the welcome email you received upon setting up your device. Your Ring products provide their standard features (real-time notifications, live view, and two-way talk) without any subscription. Ring Home Plans offer downloading and sharing video capabilities and additional features for those who want them.

      It is important to ensure that you have the proper motion settings in place for your environment. Here are a few tips to optimize the motion settings on your security camera:

      1. Adjust Motion Sensitivity: Ring devices can detect motion up to 30 feet with the Motion Sensitivity slider at the maximum level. If you turn Motion Sensitivity down, this range will be lower, decreasing false motion. If your device is missing motion, increase the Motion Sensitivity using the slider.
      2. Change the position of your Ring device: Adjust the position of your camera to improve the accuracy of motion detection.
      3. Change the Motion Frequency: Under Advanced Settings, tap Motion Frequency. You can adjust how often battery-powered devices check for motion. If your device is missing motion events, increase the Motion Frequency to Frequently (Shortest battery life—Motion detection always stays active) in the Ring app. If too much motion is being detected, change the frequency to Regularly (Medium battery life—Motion detection takes a short break after each motion alert) or Periodically (Maximum battery life—Motion detection takes a longer break after each alert).

      We invite you to reach out to our community if any additional information is needed regarding your concern. The Ring Community is our first peer-to-peer community forum, giving our customers the ability to help one another by sharing their feedback and experiences with each other.

    Good camera, mediocre platform

    |

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I guess this review is a hybrid of both the camera and the Ring platform overall. The camera itself is great; it works as intended, the lights are bright (but always too sensitive even at the lowest setting), and I've only ever had to charge the battery once over the winter since I have it hooked up to the solar panel. My bigger complaints are with the software. I really dislike that Ring only lets you have a single "owner" that has full admin rights; meaning, my wife and I would have to sign into the same account on both our phones to both have full control over the settings. There's basically zero reason that this should be the case in 2025. We've also turned down the sensitivity and drawn the alert area to ignore neighborhood cats and critters, but the lights still go off multiple times a night even if the camera doesn't record activity. I get that the motion sensor doesn't know about the alert area, but maybe the cam should use the camera to verify where the motion is before flipping on the lights. It would create a lot fewer false alarms. Had we not invested in the Ring ecosystem with a few cams, I'd probably choose a different platform, especially one not owned by Amazon. But, it does its job pretty well most of the time.

    I love this cam, super easy to install and the features are great. If you're buying your first Ring security cam for outdoors then grab this, but I wouldn't upgrade from the previous version Spotlight Cam Plus. The only real difference is the bird's eye view and that isn't all that great. Good video quality though and loud speakers.
