I'm somewhat of a geek, but the instructions were easy to follow. It is a hard fit into the provided outlet box but once you figure it out, all is ok. Not easy to install but worth it.

Of the time when i tap the notification or open the app directly, yesterday's screenshot is all that loads. Good picture quality and fast to connect. The app works well with motion zones if you choose to turn on motion detection.



Cons

Original review:i was one of the first to purchase this device in july of 2017 after a long wait list for $500.


It up to you if 6 years of service is appropriate for this price point.

Packaging/appearance


They mailed me a ring doorbell that was nearly 6 years old (bought it november 2022, but received one dated january 10, 2017 in...  Read More

    After spending more than an hour with support trying to resolve the issue it was determined that the unit was no longer emitting a wifi setup network and was preventing us from reassociating it to our account


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It was decided that they would send us a replacement device until support could not authenticate that the device was actually ours even though i can prove it was bought on amazon


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It appears that the reconditioned device was still associated to the previous owner’s account and as a result ring could not replace it under warranty


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Tech support said they would continue to work on it and would call me back
