Amazon Prime members can get half off second generation Ring Video Doorbell. Its 1080p camera includes motion detection and night vision, and the device supports two-way audio, so you can communicate with anyone approaching your home. It normally costs $100, but Prime subscribers can get it for just $50.
This Ring model is battery operated, so you don’t have to worry about complicated wiring. All you need to do is install it and connect to your Wi-Fi network via the Ring app. (You can still hook it up to your existing doorbell system if you don’t want to worry about charging anymore.)
When you pair it with the Ring app, you’ll receive notifications when someone rings the bell or triggers its motion sensors. The doorbell works with Alexa, including optional announcements when someone arrives. You can also watch its live stream or recordings on Echo devices with screens and Fire TV products.
The doorbell has night vision for clearer shots in the dark. In addition, you can manually set its movement zones to avoid streets, sidewalks and other traffic outside your home.
The Ring video doorbell comes with a mounting bracket and the tools you need to get started. If you rent, you may want to consider a third-party mount that attaches to the side of your front door without requiring any drilling.
Amazon has others Ring devices and accessories on sale including parcels with Ringing Ring, Ring Stick Up Cam and more.
