Mother nature's sun
No worries about fiddly wiring: the Video Doorbell 4 is battery-powered. And you can avoid recharging downtime by docking it in a Solar Charger that will keep it topped up.
Clear prudence
The HD stream from the Ring Video Doorbell 4 is almost as good as the quality of the movies you stream over the web - so you can clearly see what's going on outside.
Why don't we view it in the road?
You can set the zones that the doorbell checks for motion - meaning no more false alarms from passing cars, pedestrians and neighbourhood pets.

The fact that Ring has made four versions of its standard wireless doorbell-plus quite a few other variations besides - tells you it knows what it's doing when it comes to these devices. And you certainly get plenty of features for a good price with Ring No.4.
Most crucial is the ability to check who's at the door from wherever you and your smartphone happen to be in the world: that's the whole point of investing in a smart video doorbell in the first place. This is all handled very capably, with crisp video quality (and night vision) as well as two-way audio so you can speak to your visitors.
