The beauty of the doorbell lies in its simplicity: A chime sounds, you have a visitor. But even the most tried-and-true systems are due for an occasional upgrade. The Ring Video Doorbell 2 doesn’t add any complexity, but it brings innovative layers of security including a 1080HD camera, two-way talk capability and app connectivity for remote monitoring and recording.
And the tech press has answered. “As a simple-to-use video doorbell that you can fit yourself in minutes,” The Guardian writes, “the Video Doorbell 2 ticks all the boxes.” Here are four reasons the critics think the Ring strikes the right notes.The Ring can run on a rechargeable lithium ion battery or be hardwired into the same electrical setup of the buzzer being replaced. That means you can select the installation that best fits your lifestyle. Choosing the battery route, Ring offers backup packs, so you’re never without a doorbell during a recharge. “The swappable battery packs will end up making a huge difference in terms of overall convenience,” writes TechCrunch.
From there, installation is as straightforward as connecting to the Ring app and syncing with a home Wi-Fi network. “This process is standard for many of the Wi-Fi home security devices we test,” writes CNET, “but Ring makes it especially easy with little pop-up alerts that let you know you're on the right track.”Being able to identify visitors in crystal-clear 1080HD video provides peace of mind, but the Ring Video Doorbell 2 doesn’t stop there. The app also allows two-way talk-no door-opening required-and because you can set the Ring to record or stream when it detects motion, a property can be monitored 24/7, whether you’re upstairs or out of town. “Anyone who comes calling or burgling through the front door will be caught on camera,” The Guardian adds.
That simple, reliable monitoring brings new meaning to keeping an eye out, as Forbes writes: “You can use the speaker and microphone to talk to the person at the door even if you're on the other side of the world, so you won’t miss any packages or other important visitors.”Anyone who has used motion-activated technology knows that anything-from the neighbor’s cat to branches swaying in the breeze-can generate an alert. But the Ring Video Doorbell 2 lets users deselect any segment of the camera’s 160-degree field of view. “My house has a shallow driveway, with the front door relatively close to the street,” explains a Tom’s Guide reviewer. “[It] let me exclude most of the street and sidewalk, while keeping most of the driveway and porch.”
The Ring also works when the sun goes down, thanks to infrared night vision. Tech Hive sees a clear improvement in video quality from past versions. “Ring upgraded the camera’s night-vision mode,” the site notes. “Night-time video now looks better, as the camera can capture higher-quality images from greater distances.”
Thanks you've been very helpful
Hey can you still watch your crib.. if yu were like to go on a road trip.. out of town?
I refuse to read instructions and then get frustrated when I can’t figure it out 😂
Mine constantly causes my doorbell to buzz. I’ve replaced the transformer and doorbell. I made sure the transformer was the right one. I made sure the new chime was on the compatible list. Nothing works. It still buzzes my chime and won’t even ring it. Not happy.
Will this work with anything other than alexa like google home/chromecast or apple homekit?
Is the wedge on Ring’s website? I didn’t see it in accessories.
Do you have to pay 10. A month and why ??

I bought a Ring Doorbell 2 and can't wait till it arrives.
@Ronny Simon What are the thieves waiting for exactly after you install your Ring video doorbell?.. you mean the hackers who hijack the camera/audio situation?
Ronny Simon no kidding! If they want to use their foot as a ram or use a leverage bar, they’ll get in no doubt!
I think we’re all aware about the hackers who like to take over your WiFi surveillance device.. inside or out!
The subscription is $3 a month per camera or $10 a month for unlimited per location. Camera. They do not charge you an extra $3 dollars a month for having the ring doorbell 1st gen. The replacement plan if the doorbell is stolen is a one time replacement for life.

Informative, Entertaining, Bravo... Thanks

Wheres the discount
Target has a $30 gift card special (8/16/19) or just wait for the Black Friday specials.
The ring 2 are just $140 in costco
Nice discount. Only works for U.S customers though.
DON’T BUY... My motorcycle was stolen five feet in front of the Wired Ring doorbell camera, it never notified me or recorded anything. I just left the house at about 240am and returned at 330am just now and it didn’t record either. DO NOT BUY.
Had mines for a year stopped working thought it was the battery. Wasted money. Turns out its ready for the landfill. On the positive side once I got ring customer service after waiting 20 min they were more then happy to cancel my account.
Tip for future videos: Edit. Edit. Edit. Too much unnecessary talking and the subscription description was not clear. Three dollars a month, then thirteen a month?!
These door bells are the most annoying thing ever. It takes 30-40 seconds to connect, by that time the caller has left, and thats if you can remember how to use the app to even answer said caller. When the bell rings and the notification pops up on your phone, it doesn't connect you to the caller straight away, oh no that would be too easy, you have to navigate the app to the live view and answer! Unless you know of a better/quicker way to answer please let me know...
How long does it take to charge?
About 8 to 10 hours
You talked too much, you should go to the point, people don’t have much time…
de battery life lasts around 25 day's its awefull it SUCKS! even with the solar charger
It's totally crap, waste of money. Bought one and later ring two. First one, just stop working after 3 month, battery died and won't recharge anymore. No refund from ring support ( but yeah we subscribe for a year bevore it broke ) Ring two, same issue with charging battery... To get it work via WiFi outside US it's a disaster. It took us a few hours to get it work. Reaction it's always 30 seconds delay, senseless... People don't wait that long. Works with Alexa Show, but you need to ask her to open Video, skill will not open it automatically. The App will have some issues with android 10, it took me a while to get it work under my Huawei. But than it's useless, you need to make 3 steps to open the ap and answer the doorbell. Take to much time... Visitors are gone. I really loved the idea from the ring, but they need more development...
Wow, you didn’t read the instructions...
It’s a guy thing...LoL
SSID really needs rethinking for possible future character reference from neighbors.
I just installed two Doorbell 2’s, read thoroughly the instructions, watched numerous videos to confirm no errors during set up. And I’m a tech guy...LoL
Later
It’s garbage
