Pros & Cons
Pros
Field of view and picture on this camera is amazing. It is less obtrusive than other cameras. Pic and audio are clear, even at night. When i look at my ring dashboard, all of my camera views are visible and this one is crystal clear.
I'm thrilled with the amazing software and features built in that really allow you customize exactly to your needs. Easy to use and install. It’s worth every penny!

Ring solar panel is a must have if you don't have an electrical outlet nearby. The solar charger is much improved from the last version. The only thing i dislike is ring charges $100 a year if you have more than 1 device.
Cons
I feel the description above is totally misleading. It’s actually very disappointing. Don’t waste your time or money or sanity.
It keeps going offline, disconnecting from wifi. If your cam is mounted within reach anyone can unplug it.
With smart alerts off, it detects motion nicely, but is way too sensitive. The sound is muffled. I know it's missing motion because my blink is right beside it and blink notifies me of motion but ring sees nothing.

Quality
Nonetheless, i'm satisfied with the product; thank you.
The picture quality is excellent, and the linking to the doorbell camera is a great feature.
But it no longer detected the same motion with the bird's eye feature on--so i turned it off.
I don't use the birds eye view, i don't find it useful, and the satellite images of my property are absolutely terrible quality... Read More
Price
It would have cost me more in gas taking the cameras to the ups store to be returned.
