Pros & Cons
Pros
Good value for money. If the higher-priced newer models add more functionality, i'm not sure i could benefit, so this is a great price for a very functional video doorbell. The features are amazing! I have one of the later versions of this one and thi... Read More
On the back of the device is a qr code that takes you to an excellent set of web pages about installation, use, wifi setup, options and trouble shooting. The build quality is solid and the app is initially hard to navigate but is ok once your used to ... Read More
My experience during the 30 minutes i was mucking around with it is that the my app notification upon motion / doorbell ringing is almost instant! There is a small lag when an alert goes off on my phone until i open it up, but not too bad.

Cons
There is a noticeable lag for motion detection without the subscription. Without the subscription, almost all features are disabled. The app only works with ios 7+ and android 9+.
Until you use the product you don't realise the impact of not having the recordings. I got scammed like the rest of us. Had to recharge battery after 1.
Highlights
Quality
Nice features including motion detection zones and sensitivity that can be adjusted.
Great camera quality and range of vision.
I liked the ability to go back and review footage when alerted for motion by the camera but after 30 days the trial period ran out.
Although i have only charged the ring doorbell 4 times in the last year (the last charging was done just yesterday!
Price
Great item at a very good price
I don't pay for their service tired of too many subscriptions and it too expensive.
Pretty much making it a plain dumb intercom unless you pay.
For the price it would of been nice not to have to spend more money.
Packaging/appearance
I can see every detail, whether it's a package being delivered, a neighbor stopping by, or simply checking in on the surroundings.
Competitiveness
I have other branded cameras and they record longer videos a lot quicker than this does.
