For my family and I, the Ring is primarily a security device as it starts recording to the cloud on movement at the front of the house, not just from when the door bell button is pressed. Every video alert is stored online for 6 months (their subscription is $30 per year only) and its easy to review on the phone app. Answering the door when you're away is good though as it's hand to say, go next door please or leave is in the recycling box please...
well worth the money for a product that works well.
Note: the bad laggy reviews are mostly from old/standard UK internet users. I've found out that for it to work quick/smooth/well, you need a 1mb up which isn't a given in the UK. If you've got that (check speed.net) then you're sorted ;-)
STAY AWAY! Waste of money. The app is buggy. You need to change 4 AA batteries every 3 days. :rage:

I can't be the only one waiting for a ring link to the newer version :joy:

I actually had my doorbell stolen once. Who would do that?
It smarted at the time, as it cost around £7. But a £22 or £112 loss would really make me sad. :cry:
I would consider buying this certainly, so it's hot from me.

The Ring option (the expensive one) is self insured in that if you report it to the police and get an incident number, Ring will replace the doorbell with a new one straight away. Not bad really.

How easy are these to remove?
Call me cynical.......... But surely the people who know about these and steal them, also know they will get replaced so they will just keep coming back if they know they've got an endless supply at the same location :astonished:
