With Ring Video Doorbell Wired, it has become easier than ever to afford and install a smart video doorbell.
Ring Video Doorbell Wired is Ring’s smallest doorbell yet, but its slim design still boasts features such as HD video, two-way audio, live view, Advanced Motion Detection, and Customizable Privacy Zones.
At $59.99, Ring’s new offering is a more affordable option for those just getting started or looking to expand their Ring security setup.
“Since day one, Ring’s focus has been to invent home security solutions that solve real customer problems,” said Jamie Siminoff, Ring’s founder and chief inventor. “With Ring Video Doorbell Wired, we packed the features that matter into a small, compact design, giving customers more choice when it comes to selecting the Ring Video Doorbell that best fits their needs.”

Reliable, Accessible Home Security
The latest Ring offering connects to existing doorbell wiring and includes everything needed for installation.
Standard features available on Ring Video Doorbell Wired include 1080p HD video with night vision and two-way audio with noise cancellation, offering a clear field of view and the ability to see and speak with visitors from anywhere.
Customizable Motion Zones allow customers to create specific zones to trigger alerts. Privacy Zones can be set to eliminate areas a homeowner does not want to monitor. With those zones set, Advanced Motion Detection activates recording when movement is detected within a certain distance of the doorbell, sending an alert to the Ring app.
Ring Protect Plan subscribers (starting at $3/month per device) can access additional features like color Pre-Roll, a six-second video preview that shows what triggered a motion alert at the door.
Other features include People Only Mode, a refined motion alert sent only when human beings are detected, and Rich Notifications, which show a snapshot preview to see what’s happening in real time before opening the Ring app.
Simple Control in One App
Once installed, Ring Video Doorbell Wired customers can have complete control over their experience within the Ring app. Customers can set their notification preferences, create their Customizable Motion and Privacy Zones, and also quickly connect other Ring cameras, Ring Chimes, their Ring Alarm, and Ring Smart Lights to create an integrated whole-home security system and monitor what’s happening from anywhere.
The new video doorbell is also compatible with Alexa. Simply say “Alexa, show me the front door,” to see Live View on your Alexa device or say “Alexa, talk to the front door,” to begin speaking with whoever is at the door.
