Pros & Cons
Pros
Camera is compact and tucked in a corner. Easy to take a snapshot of the recorded footage - literally the push of one button in the app. Night vision is good but again, not perfect.
Easy to set up on the app. Easy to navigate and manage - and this is coming from someone that is admittedly not tech-savvy.
Reviewer says system works well, but it's laggy. Has the fastest wifi speed and a wifi extender.
The camera detects motion reliably. The system notifies me with every motion event as a pop-up notification on my phone.
This now makes 4 ring cameras at our home. It angles nicely so that it captures the entrance and the backyard. I'm able to identify vehicles and pedestrians.
Cons
Ring has decided to choke the capabilities of the camera on the server side. It's maybe 1080p but zooming destroys the image. No pc version.
I doubt i will be renewing my subscription when it comes up next fall. Considering a return as i feel ripped off.
Motion detection needs to be 99% reliable, not hit or miss. Only provides a very small range of motion for mounting, very small tilt radius. Whoever the light is very distracting.
Works intermittently. Battery life seems to fluctuate not by temperature but usage.

Quality
Picture quality is great and the ability to see my videos on the computer screen is a bonus, we will be paying for this feature... Read More
Very happy with the quality of the image both day and night.
I don’t agree with the negative reviews.
It works great and easy set up but when zoomed in the video quality drops.

The media could not be loaded

Ok not a big deal but then there is a blue light…a bright blue light that turns on whenever motion is detected or if you go to live view in the app

Now i know that a baby monitor is not it’s soul purpose but say someone broke into your house at night the minute it detects movement in front of it a blue light comes on notifying the perp that they are being watched or filmed

I just think that’s poor design

Secondly the motion sensitivity has high medium or low
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Unfortunately medium is too high and you get notifications for everything and low doesn’t acknowledge my child’s movement at all
