Battery Doorbell Plus (newest model), Home or business security, Head-to-Toe HD+ Video, motion detection & alerts, and Two-Way Talk

All of my reviews on Ring Camera will be the same, for I've not experienced any difference on the difference devices I have. Camera Functionality: The camera functions as desired. If you opt to have the App (why wouldn't you?), you can take control of each camera individually while doing so automatically through the different modes that you can pre-set. For example, when we are set for home, inside camera are not constantly detecting movement per my settings. This is triggered automatically at a time of day you pre-set. When asleep, you can let the App change the mode to detect and record those camera that you keep off when awake. Night Vision and Picture Quality: I was a little skeptical re quality at night time but I had no reason to be. So far, we have had no issues being able to tell who comes to our door when it's dark. The detection quality is very good and the picture quality is decent. Wifi Connectivity: Admittedly, I wanted to place a camera further than the expressed range for wifi connection to work and failed. But that's to be expected. When placed within the allotted distance, I've not had any issues with wifi.

I have used a few doorbells over the years and this one feels like a real upgrade. the head to toe viewing area is a stand out feature. I can see packages sitting right against the door instead of a clip of a body coming and going only. Installation was super easy and took my husband literally minutes. we are using it with the provided battery so there was no wiring needed. setting it up in my existing ring ap was straight forward. the picture quality is sharp suring the day and the night vision is shockingly great too! faces and movement are easy to make out and are not grainy. motion alerts have been accurate and quick so far. the two way talk and sound have also been perfect. it is small and looks nice and sleek. a few things to note- You need to subscribe the Ring AP to access certain features like recorded video history, which is pretty standard these days but worth noting. Also, depending on your WiFi strength, you may need to tweak placement for the best connection. Overall, this feels like a dependable, polished option for home security. The expanded vertical view alone makes it worth it if you get a lot of deliveries.

I have had Ring for years now and I for sure recommend them for any household. I’ve never really tested out other brands because this one has been tried and true. Pros : Removable battery: This model has been my favorite so far due to the feature of the removable battery which allows you to keep the camera up on your door as the battery charges to appear as if it’s still on for anyone passing by, that is if you do not have an extra battery inside (I definitely recommend to purchase a second battery separately for peace of mind.) If you have a second battery, you literally never have to take the camera down ever which is probably the best feature of this model. Functionality : The functionality of the app is pretty useful. You can customize the detection sensitivity to your liking which is nice, but the software can be kind of picky as to when it decides to start recording after you change any detection area so I would personally leave it at the default settings but just max out the detection unless you have constant cars going by your residence on a busy street. Quality : The quality is pretty great and clear enough for me but I live in an apartment complex with hallways where everything in front of my camera is no further than 10 feet, so I definitely recommend the quality on this model if you live in a apartment complex with hallways as you don’t really need any higher quality than this. I can’t speak for anyone with a front yard, or for anyone needing night vision either as my hallways are always lit. Signal : The signal from my wifi has never dropped unless we have an internet outage. I always get notifications when i’m out and about or at work. The ring community on the app is a nice feature too as you can see what is going on around your neighborhood such as nearby missing pets, break ins, etc. Design : The design looks slick to me on my white door and of course recognizable to almost everyone of what kind of doorbell camera it is. The doorbell literally “rings” when someone hits its circle button doorbell which then pops up as a notification on your device. Everyone who needs to see me always use the doorbell because it’s hard to miss instead of knocking which is sometimes better depending on the scenario because the notification from the Ring app is pretty loud on your phone if you’re in the shower or something. Battery : I’ve only had to charge the battery twice in the past 6 months with all of the settings maxed to the highest battery usage so battery life has been great. I would still recommend an extra battery for when you do eventually have to charge it. Con: Fees : Of course having to pay the subscription fee of being able to save and playback videos stinks but you really get what you pay for as it has been so useful to playback any saved missed moments from literally anywhere. Hopefully there are no more price hikes to come. There is some competition out there that offers free playback saves locally on an internal home device without a subscription, which I think can and will deter people away from Ring and try those devices out especially with everything needing a subscription these days.

Upgraded from the older Ring Battery Doorbell Gen 2 and the difference is noticeable right away. Setup was quick and painless. Camera clarity is much better both during the day and at night, and the wider field of view captures a lot more of what’s happening around the door. The quick-swap battery is a big plus and makes maintenance easy. Overall, a solid upgrade and well worth it.

The Ring Battery Doorbell Plus works exactly as advertised. The video quality is clear, the motion detection responds quickly, and the head-to-toe view really does make a difference when someone is at the door. Setup was simple and the app is easy to use, so overall the doorbell itself performs well. My only regret is not researching a bit more before buying. I didn’t realize that to use all the features, you need a subscription. Basic functions still work without it, but things like video history, storing recordings, and some advanced alerts all require the monthly plan. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it would’ve been nice to know upfront. Aside from the subscription part, the battery life has been solid and the build quality feels sturdy enough for home or business use. If you’re okay with paying for the extra features, it’s a very good doorbell with reliable performance.

As described. Works excellent. We live upstairs apartment no issues with wifi connection at all. Great pic quality. Love this. Easy.mount. size fits great by our downstairs hallway door. Connected and works with Alexa 5 in our home..

I’ve been using this Ring Battery Video Doorbell Plus every day, and overall it’s been a solid addition to the front door. The 1536p video quality is clear and detailed — better than a lot of other doorbells — and it captures faces and packages really well, even in bright sunlight. Setup was straightforward and truly DIY-friendly. It connected to my Wi-Fi without much fuss, and the app walks you through each step. Once it’s up and running, the motion alerts are reliable and the notifications come through fast, so I always know what’s happening at the door. Two small things worth mentioning: Because it’s battery powered, I had to think about where to mount it so the signal stays strong and battery life stays good. Mine holds charge well, but if you get a lot of alerts it uses more power. Some features in the app, like advanced motion zones, take a little time to dial in just right. Once set, though, it works smoothly. Overall this Ring doorbell feels reliable, with very good video quality and easy install. Great choice if you want a solid wireless video doorbell that’s simple to set up and keeps you connected to what’s happening at home.

We love the doorbell. We just use it with the app. Very very easy to setup and use. We don’t need a subscription either. You can download anything you want to save in the app as well very easy! 😎 the quality is awesome too.

Love the camera aspect. However, it appears to only ring to a phone. This isn’t convenient when the phone hasn’t at the house. If we can find a way to have a “speaker” in the house, it would be a 5 star product.

I previously was using (without) issue the standard Ring Battery Video Doorbell (in copper colour); and bought the Battery Video Doorbell Plus when it went on sale during Prime Day. It has been a game changer, and is better in almost every way: 1. The Field of View is SIGNIFICANTLY greater. I live a top a flight of stairs, and often when I had deliveries, I previously couldn’t view or be alerted of deliveries because the camera view of the standard Ring Doorbell didn’t reach the floor. The Video Doorbell Plus solves that problem as the field of view reaches from the floor to the roof. Maybe an extra 30 or 40 degrees improvement in field of view vertically. My floor to ceiling height is around 2.5m. Lateral field of view seems similar. 2. Removable battery is a game changer. Having to remove the whole unit to charge for 8 hours with the standard Video Doorbell is a real inconvenience. Being able to just switch out the removable battery in the Doorbell Plus so there is no down time, is significantly more convenient. The battery still uses a micro-USB to charge. Don’t know why Ring isn’t using USB C by now (cable is included though) 3. Less lag when going to Live View. I found with the standard Ring Battery Video Doorbell, it took up to 30secs to go to Live View when someone was at my door (usually around 15 to 20secs). By the time I connected the person or deliverer was gone. The Doorbell Plus allows me to connect to Live View in 1/2 to 1/3 of the time previously (5 to 10 secs usually). Significantly less frustrating. I don’t know whether the removable battery will last as long as the internal battery of the standard Video Doorbell. If there is significant decrease I will update my review. I liked the copper colour of the previous standard Doorbell (matches brickwork better), but I can buy removable faceplates I think. Overall, the Video Doorbell Plus is better, more convenient and functional, than the standard Ring Battery Video Doorbell, in almost every way. When on sale during Prime Day (with 40% off), the price of the two were almost similar. I can’t recommend the standard Doorbell if you can afford or can get the Plus version on discount. It’s better and less frustrating to use in every single way.

Good product, works well. Would be better if the ring subscription is a bit cheaper than it is currently since this product is useless without a ring subscription
