Setup and Installation
Pros:
"Basically a plug and play device."
"It works great. It has a cover so I can just close it when I am home so I am not setting it off the whole time."
"I had no problems setting it up on my existing system. It was plug and play easy."
"Super easy set up even for the non-tech person."
"The camera was very easy to use and set up."
"Set up is simple."
"Setting up each camera and then activating them was a breeze!"
Cons:
"First of all I couldn't install it on the wall because the bottom lid wouldn't slide off."
"When it was time to renew my subscription, Ring raised the price and extra $40, which made it not worth continuing with Ring."
"For a camera that you'll probably want up high in a room, the cord is pretty short."
"If you want mounted in corner near ceiling to see entire room you'll have to get up their each time you leave and return to cover camera or be spied on."
"It took me a long time to get it connected."
"I bought this camera for my kids room on July 2023. At the beginning its was working OK but after couples weeks, it started to turned Off by itself."
"The camera doesn't record all motion and has a 2-5 minute delay between."
Design and Quality
Pros:
"Love that it is small, has a slide to close the camera, has a clear wide view. I can talk over it when I’m not home."
"It’s easy to use and has great video quality."
"The picture is clear and the sound quality is outstanding. It also provides a wide view!"
"They are small enough to not be obvious or clash with decor."
"The camera itself is so small but has a great wide view."
"This camera is small and cheap feeling and quality is horrible 7 feet away plus, you can make out the face and the person but if you needed to zoom on a detail, like seeing what's on your child's ipad- this will NOT do that."
"The camera itself is super light. It's likely the lightest security camera I've ever seen."
Cons:
"Literally sometimes jumping in front of camera and shows as off."
"This functions very similarly to the last generation. In fact, I can't really tell if there are any improvements at all other than the privacy cover."
"Great quality but if you're mounting it to your wall, it constantly falls off when you're opening and closing privacy shield."
"This camera needs to be much bigger and heavier."
"But the quality of the material it's made of is very poor."
"It’s an expensive camera and yet when dropped on carpet, it broke."
"Most importantly, the sound is very stuck and very quiet, whether in real-time live broadcast or recording."
Functionality and Performance
Pros:
"Once it’s finally connected, it works great."
"This cam is perfect for checking on pets while you are away."
"All in all, very pleased and definitely feel much more secure about my house when I’m not home."
"The Ring app offers a suite of robust motion detection features."
"It has great night vision, and the quality is much better than my older generation Ring cameras."
"This is pretty reliable, great sound, rarely ever stops live view for no reason."
"Provides great visibility when camera is triggered by a person entering room."
Cons:
"The customer support from Ring has been less than helpful and somewhat discourteous."
"After being idle for some time, it does not always detect motion."
"Doesn’t stay connected to the wifi, no matter how close it gets, and it doesn’t stay connected to power regardless of the outlet I use."
"Had issues only with the on and off Wi-fi connection for the camera in bedroom especially during 45 min power outage in the neighborhood."
"When using these 'security cameras', you can only view them 10 minutes at a time, then you have to go back and reconnect them every single 10 minutes."
"Works well when the sensor turns on but it seems to miss a lot of motion."
"There are major gaps in video recordings."
Value and Cost
Pros:
"These cameras were on sale for $40, which is a good deal."
"An absolute score that I got them @ 40% off."
"I bought this on sale and the price made it very competitive with other brand security systems."
"I got it when it was on sale for $30 and it’s worth it."
"For the price, I think it’s a pretty great little camera and I’m very happy with my purchase."
"To me it’s a great product, great price."
"They also offer a plan to store feeds for an extended time, and the price is reasonable."
Cons:
"You have to pay separate for the camera as well."
"Also, I have to pay a monthly subscription to get extended time."
"Ring has raised their price for saving videos to $4.99 per camera per month."
"The cost of the subscription has gone too high."
"Their top plan is $99 a month for several cameras and 24x7 monitoring and that gets steep."
"The security model used by Ring is to simply bait the consumer into providing Ring with a continuous / ongoing cash flow."
"The only thing I don’t like is that you need to pay a monthly subscription to be able to save what’s being recorded."
Customer Service and Support
Pros:
"I also love their software you can see immediately on your phone when someone is wondering around your house."
"I bought ring webcam from recommendation of our home security company. I am very happy with ring."
"I love the security my Ring system provides for my house."
"The security of these cameras if great, but the added benefit of keeping my father safe is priceless."
"I am absolutely in love with this camera."
"We’ve got many ring cameras and the clarity is excellent."
"Overall, the All-new Ring Indoor Cam (2nd Gen) has exceeded my expectations, offering reliability, versatility, and peace of mind."
Cons:
"How do people use these? It's so annoying and the app is a cluster."
"Returning these and hopefully I can find the 1st Gen ones on Facebook marketplace or I'm going with a different company."
"The Ring Indoor Camera (Gen 2) is experiencing compatibility issues with Amazon's Eero products."
"RING picks and chooses when they want to and not want to record things."
"On each and every one of them they have intermittent connection issues."
"Seeing Amazon owns Ring, I expected better customer service from both and really expected better integration between the two."
"As far as customer service, it was useless to me when I was out of the country."
