Product Information

Stay in the know: Simply tune in to the live stream to keep an eye on your home. What's more, you'll get an instant notification on your mobile or desktop device anytime the video doorbell detects someone at the door. Adjustable motion detection lets you decide how sensitive the camera is.
Seriously powerful: Ring Video Doorbell 2 has everything it needs to keep an eye over your home 24/7. The camera delivers footage in 1080p HD, even at night thanks to infrared night vision. A 160-degree field-of-view allows the camera to see virtually everything that's going around the front of your home.
Strike up a conversation: The smart doorbell's 2-way intercom allows you and your visitors to communicate with each other in real time. While this allows you to conveniently give instructions to a handyman or mailman when you're not at home, it also allows you to scare off intruders if you think a break-in is happening.
Works with your home: You can choose between a hard-wired or battery-powered installation of your new wi-fi doorbell camera. A hard-wired installation involves simply replacing your existing doorbell. Using the doorbell as a battery-powered device allows you to mount it wherever you want it in your home, with recharging being easy thanks to quick-release design.
Wide-ranging compatibility: You can download the mobile app on your iOS (iOS 9.1 or later) or Android (Android 5.0 or up) device, as well as access the camera via web app on a Mac or Windows 10 laptop or desktop.

The Ring Video Doorbell 2 in action

The newest version of the video doorbell from Ring works as a great line of first defense in your home security network. It monitors everything that's going around the front door of your home - the most commonly used entry point during a break in. The Ring Video Doorbell 2 also has a built-in 2-way intercom, allowing you to personally intervene if you suspect burglars are attempting to access your home.

Storing and recording video on the doorbell

Ring offers a subscription service that gives your video doorbell even more powerful features. It allows the doorbell to automatically store any video clips it records in the cloud for 60 days, where you can review, share and save them. This feature is particularly useful when it comes to home security - you'll gain valuable evidence to give to law enforcement should you experience a break-in. You'll get a free 30-day trial for Ring's subscription service, with no long-term contract being required for those who wish to open a subscription.

Also available are two accessories that let you adjust the viewing angle of the smart doorbell. The corner kit allows you to adjust the horizontal viewing able by between 15-30 degrees, allowing for improved motion detection in your walkway or entryway. Meanwhile, the wedge kit is ideal for anyone who wants to install the video doorbell against an angled surface.
