Caller ID For My Front Door: The Ring Video Doorbell Pro

The Ring is a Wi-Fi enabled Doorbell button with a built-in security camera and two-way speaker that connects to a smartphone or tablet. It’s solidly built, easy to install, and functions brilliantly like what many describe as, “Caller ID for the Front Door”.

Featured here is The Ring Video Doorbell Pro – the newer, smaller version that unlike the original, is wired directly to the house. It installs in place of the existing Doorbell which keeps it powered and even working with the home’s existing Doorbell chime.

Installation is simple and everything you need comes in the box. There are even different color frames to choose from.

The magic is in the security features. When visitors ring your Doorbell or trigger the built-in Motion Sensors, you get instant alerts on your smartphone, tablet or computer. Then, like answering a phone call, you can pick up and talk to the person at your door through the Ring’s built-in two-way talk system. There’s virtually no lag, so whether you’re answering the door from the backyard or from across town, you can see and speak to the person at your door as if you’re right there.

Answering an alert is just like answering a phone call.

The camera streams and records in 1080p HD and features all the bells and whistles you’d expect in a stand-alone security camera – Customizable Motion Detection Zones and Infrared Night Vision. The camera also has an enormously wide 160° field of view that can clearly see objects that are practically up against the wall.

It's much smaller than it appears in pictures. Having different color frames is nice - I chose the black frame to match my Mailbox.

What I find most remarkable about the Ring is that it goes practically unnoticed as anything other than a Doorbell button to visitors. Having such a practical and unobtrusively placed camera makes the Ring a fantastic addition to home security.
