Not that long ago, video doorbells were either a novelty or a luxury. Today they’re a necessity, and the best ones to watch over your front door so you can tell an Amazon delivery from a potential burglar come from Ring. Right now Ring’s latest and greatest model, the Ring Battery Doorbell Pro, is on sale at Amazon for just $150 — a huge 35% drop from the usual $230 price.
Also gone are the days of fuzzy lo-res images and huge blind spots — the Ring Battery Doorbell Pro has an amazingly sharp 1536p Head to Toe HD+ Video and 3D Motion Detection with Bird’s Eye Zones and Bird’s Eye View to ensure that the area around your door is thoroughly covered.
No Wiring Necessary
The Ring Battery Doorbell Pro installs in mere minutes, without any need to tap into your home’s electrical system or mess with wiring. It’s powered by a Quick Release Battery Pack which charges rapidly with a simple Mini-USB connection. You can go from unboxing to installing to connecting to your home Wi-Fi quick and easy.
This is the latest and best generation of the Ring, with huge advances in technology and image quality. It comes with Low-Light Sight to deliver a clear color image in near-dark conditions, and Zonal Infrared LEDs that help achieve the ideal level of exposure for your videos.
The Bird’s Eye Zones are quickly and easily set up, so you can adjust your Ring’s field of view and create custom zones so your Ring is seeing the sidewalk and front step instead of the hedges or a wall. And the Bird’s Eye View creates an aerial view of your home so you can see the path someone took to your front door.
It’s compatible with Person + Package Alerts (sold as a separate subscription), which notifies you when your package is detected within a specified zone which you can customize. And, as a member of the Amazon family, the Ring Battery Doorbell Pro is exceptionally easy to link to Alexa on compatible Echo devices so you can enable announcements and Two-Way Talk so you can speak with the person at your door without having to open it.
All the great security features of the Ring Battery Doorbell Pro are controllable from your phone via the Ring app — get real-time notifications and answer your door from your phone and speak to anyone who rings the bell, regardless of where you are.
Amazon offering their top-of-the-line Ring doorbell for just $150 is a great deal, but it’s also a limited-time offer. Don’t miss out!
