Ring Battery Video Doorbell Plus Green

The device is very easy to install using the Ring app (even easier than the brochure), all you need is a drill. The power supply can be either wired or a rechargeable, replaceable battery. With the purchase you get a Ring protect 30 days trial period. The app makes it possible for several people to answer the call at the same time. Image, Because it has a video aspect of 1:1 you get a top to toe image, with the supplied slanted holder an image is also created on the door handle and keyhole. There is a slight image quality difference between the live and recorded images, with live having a better quality. When the image is rewound, the image appears to play at a different speed than the rest for less than one second. The images from late in the evening are of good quality and the user-defined privacy zones are displayed as black bars in the fragments. Sound, The iconic doorbell sound is very audible when you are outside, but a little less inside, however, you have an amplifier for this with which you can adjust the indoor sound and this is even on a summer evening where neighbors have their doors open with some music on, the sound is still audible. The sound has a good quality for both live and recorded images and the conversations are clearly audible, it is also possible not to record any sound. It is also possible that several people can answer the doorbell via the app.

I was hoping for a properly working doorbell, but unfortunately it doesn't work more often than not. The router is about 3 meters away from the doorbell, but the WiFi signal is apparently often too weak, causing the connection to break. I have the fastest speed via KPN, but apparently that is not enough. So a strong connection (3/3 bars) is needed and a good router. Furthermore, the image often stutters and the battery is empty after 6 days. I think that's much faster than expected. So unfortunately a disappointment for me.

Easy to install if you follow instructions. It's nice that the battery can also be used wirelessly because our existing cabling was too short to connect the ring. Battery also lasts a long time, only charging takes at least 12 hours and no doorbell during that time, so you have to take that into account. Picture surprisingly sharp and good even at night. Sound also good and clear. Motion notifications adjusted through the app. Ringtone and volume are also easy to adjust via the app. If the Chime is also tested, the Ring doorbell can simply be connected directly to the socket. Handy if your phone is not nearby or is on silent. You have to take out a subscription to look back and save, which I think is a financial downside to the ring doorbell. But don't know how it is with other brands. Conclusion. Nice doorbell with image and sound, easy app. The choice for a subscription if you want to review or save images,
