We reviewed it last year and gave it four out of five stars, recommending it highly.
The outstanding improvement over the original Ring doorbell is the removable battery. The original Ring doorbell required you to unscrew the entire unit for recharging. The new version has a battery beneath the face plate that you can simply pop out, take indoors and recharge.
As well as this, the Doorbell 2 comes with all the features you’d hope for: 1080p HD video, improved night vision, two-way conversation and motion detection. It can also connect to existing doorbells.
The Ring Door View Cam is equally discounted, also now £119, down from £179 – that’s 30% off. Essentially, the Door View Cam acts as an upgrade to your peephole. It’s a fifth generation Ring product, with features including motion detection, privacy zones and night vision, as well as two-way conversation, 1080p HD video, and a removable and rechargeable battery. The camera will also alert you to a knock at the door.
There’s £50 off the Ring Video Doorbell Pro. It’s currently priced at £179, down from £229. This is another product that got a four-star rating from us. We think it’s a significant upgrade from the Ring Doorbell and well worth the extra investment.
The Doorbell Pro is a slimmer design and can be wired to your existing doorbell. It features 1080p HD video, two-way audio and customisable motion sensors. It also comes with four different face plates.
The Ring Alarm is also now discounted by £50. It’s on sale for £199, down from £249. This is another Ring product that we really rated. We called it “affordable, expandable, easy to install” and pointed out that one of its key advantages is that it’s not reliant on a paid subscription. Nor does it require professional installation.
It’s a five-piece kit that includes a base station, a keypad, a contact sensor, a motion sensor and a range extender. It functions either as an effective standalone alarm or it can be integrated with your other Ring products.
There are also deals on various Ring Stick Up Cams. There’s £20 off the Stick Up Cam Battery and the Stick Up Cam Plug-in, dropping the price from £89 to £69. There’s £30 off the new Solar Stick Up Cam, taking the price down to £99 from £129. And finally, there’s £40 off the Stick Up Cam Elite, which means it’s now on sale for £139, down from £179.
