i have been having issues with my neighbors overstepping their boundaries at our apartment complex the last one where they were on my front steps after that incident i immediately began looking at cameras both as a deterrent and for evidence if they were to do something like that again i know many people with the ring doorbell so i thought that would be a good optionthe doorbell was easy to install and setup it has a bracket with 4 screws that the doorbell itself clips to and has 2 security screws to prevent theft before putting it in place it has to be charged as long as you’re using battery it took about 2 12 hours to charge from a quarter battery out of the box it includes a charging cable and all mounting hardware out of the box after running it for a week on default power settings i am down to 89 battery so it’ll last a while but it’ll have to be taken down for a few hours occasionally to be charged my one wish was that the battery was removable so i could have 2 packs i could swap out but it isn’t the end of the worldvideo quality is pretty good on it day time viewing is great night vision is a little dark to see but it is on me due to where i had to mount it i mounted it directly on the door the only problem with that is it picks up the white trimming around the door more than anything in the dark my solution was to put a small motion activated light under it it allows me to see the footage alright if someone happens in the dark under better mounting circumstances it works well at nightthe ring app has a very nice interface it is very user friendly and you can easily save clips if needed the app will notify you of motion or people at the door so you can see quickly what’s going on it will also allow you to change settings on the camera to save power and such in terms of connection issues i haven’t had any that other users have reported however the wifi access point it’s connected to is only a few feet away through the wall so i really can’t speak about installations further away it is worth noting that it only supports 24ghz wifi i would check what your network supports firstthere is a subscription ring protect for this and other ring cameras it’s 399 for 1 camera 10 a month for all cameras or 20 for a “pro plan” with 247 monitoring for 1 doorbell camera i am using the 399 one however if i ever need more cameras i would definitely use the 10 oneit is also compatible with alexa i am able to use my echo speaker as a ringer for when someone pushes the belloverall i am very happy with this doorbell camera i would definitely recommend it i know a lot of people wouldn’t like the subscription part but it makes sense since they’re storing your cameras footage it’s less of a worry than a thief taking an sd card out of similar even just have the camera there has already acted as a deterrent those neighbors have walked  by but haven’t done anything near my porch since the only people that have been up there are people that should be like the mail and such with this i feel way more secure
