A new push-pin mount design makes it easy to pop the doorbell off for charging via USB-C, though you’ll need to unmount the whole unit since the battery isn’t removable. If your door gets a lot of foot traffic, expect to recharge every couple of months.
The 1440×1440 resolution delivers a crisp, square view that captures everything from a visitor’s face to the package at their feet. Unlike its predecessor’s 1920×1080 feed, which often cut off legs or deliveries, this “head-to-toe” 150° by 150° field of view ensures you miss nothing. Color night vision adds clarity after dark, though it shines best for objects close to the camera. Zoom in on the Ring app, and you’ll still see enough detail to spot a delivery box’s label.
I rent. Which means I’m not drilling into stucco like I own the place, or pulling wires out of a 1970s wall cavity just to feel ‘connected.’ Enter: the Ring Battery Doorbell. It’s the answer for everyone who wants home security but also wants their security deposit back. This thing is idiot-proof (I would know, I installed it mid-coffee). Battery lasts a shockingly long time, and the app setup took less effort than pretending I read the lease agreement. Video is sharp, motion alerts are fast, and I get to look like I have my life together when packages arrive,” said one reviewer.
