Ring video doorbell 2 with chime review.

The ring video doorbell 2 has been worthless for me and i ve had it for 3 months. Msrp 199 00 pcmag editors select and review products independently. Setup is easy the app is a breeze to use motion tracking works great and the battery lasts long enough to not be a hassle. Luckily it comes with a battery.

The ring 2 works best when it s hard wired. 1 it falls off the wifi regularly like others i had to purchase an extender. Here is my long term review of the ring video doorbell pro. That s because to keep the motion sensor and video camera working as well as maintain 24 7 wifi connectivity the ring 2 must have power.

Clips are saved for 30 days. 2 my battery drains every 2 weeks i finally set the perimeter so that it only records the most limited area possible. The ring video doorbell by itself is deficient without the ring chime. It is better than the 2014 doorbell but this 100 second gen ring video doorbell retains the most annoying thing about the original you have to remove the entire doorbell to charge it.

I have used it for over 2 years. It s vastly over priced and quite disappointed that when i installed my ring video doorbell learned that it could not be heard in the home unless you had this device or had your smart phone with you at all times. The device available in both wired and wireless. The ring video doorbell 2 may lack the style and sophistication of premium door dingers but few can match its simplicity and versatility.

With the video doorbell 2 you get a free month s trial of the video recording plan which saves all motion and ring alert videos to the cloud.
