Ring Video Doorbell Wired Review 2021 - Unboxing, Features, Setup, Installation, Video Audio Quality

Today, we are going to check the new entry level and cheapest video doorbell from Ring.... the Ring Video Doorbell Wired. I am interested to check this out and see if Ring crippled it so that it will not hurt the sales of their Ring Video Doorbell Pro and the upcoming premium video doorbell Pro 2 which is 4 times the price of this $60 dollar doorbell.

So, we will do the unboxing, check out its features, set it up, do the installation, check out the settings in the app and check out its video and audio quality and also run the usual video doorbell tests and see if this basic video doorbell wired from Ring can be an option for your front door... or with the price, you can install this video doorbell to every exterior door at your house.

Lol I appreciate you saying “Alex-A” and not triggering everyone’s Alexa’s

“Rent is overdue”....priceless. 🤣😂. Great review.

Thanks for your review. I purchased two of these for family members and I also have a Doorbell Pro. It’s pretty much in line with the current Pro on quality and features. After I installed the Wired, I called customer support to inquire about the color night vision mode. The tech told me that he expects that an update will come at a later time to enable color night vision. I still think that at this price, it’s a great product. I would have bought this for myself rather than the pro, especially if they come through with a color night vision update. Great content as always.

I really appreciate your reviews. Others waste lots of time with unboxing then go superficial. You look at features that matter. I have a Ring Peephole Cam (a gift). Super easy install. My front door faces the street. I see cars going by but cannot detect people that walk toward it. Essentially useless. It sometimes detects them walking away but that isn't very useful. My experience with Echo show and Google Home is similar. They can show the camera but are too slow to do it... if at all. I haven't bothered to check the audio features. My ring was a gift with an extra battery pack which was smart as they take a long time to recharge. Ring has their neighborhood network. It's mostly useless as 90% is lost and found cats and dogs. 5% is bobcat, coyote or snake sightings and the rest are reports of people stealing things from unlocked cars or as I call them "I was stupid" alerts.

Audio definitely sounds better than my current Ring!

You have the best video of the Amazon Ring Doorbell. You explain everything with easy to follow instructions. I plan on using mine with an Echo Dot. I use a Nest Indoor Webcam in my windows to see my entire yard and street. I get alerts via email. Thanks. Jim

Lol why am I even here? Guess I just like to know what I'm missing or not missing so thanks for the detailed review as always.

At 2:36, I thought she was going to say, tell him dinner is ready!!! 😄😄😄

This is the first video doorbell I’ve ever felt had the right features in the right eco system at the right price. I’m probably going to be buying this if I can figure out how to hook up two to the same chime box (I have a doorbell and the front and back of my house)

Be sure to turn off the electricity at the fuse box. I ignored the direction of turning off the electricity because as a younger man I used to install light fixtures. We never turned the electricity off during installations. Well, after two days of no success and not getting a wireless connection, I decided to cover all the bases and turn off the breaker. I had installed and uninstalled this model several times before this. Well, to my elation, the system, the camera and the wireless worked. So be sure to turn off the the breaker.

:D Was looking hard at this one but settled on a ring doorbell pro instead and I'm very happy. For $169 it's a deal!

[markpolakovich]

Damn I wish I had Amazon L X A but I never heard of it, I asked Alexa and she was no help either

[RexBanner_]

Been waiting for this. Thanks for the review. Looking forward to your take on the Pro 2.

[macster]

I wish they would allow us to change the chime sound when someone presses the doorbell. I don't mean the app sound, I mean the sound the person hears when pressing the doorbell.

I need another video door bell for my other door already got one for the front.This I think will be a great addition many thanks great review.👍

[Relayer]

I'm impressed with this new offering. May have to replace my simple EZVIZ cam at my front door. My father has the old Ring Pro, so I anxious to see your comparison. Thanks much!

[AKTECH]

we got this doorbell in australia and my brother in law got it and its so good for the price !

[miguelsfdez]

I am impressed with this review!, You answered all my questions as a first time buyer of video doobell. Great job!

[Galene]

I think this will be perfect for my townhome, it sits far in the back and doesn’t get a lot of traffic so I didn’t want to spend a ton on a video doorbell for it

[ubbme]

I was worried about the video capture area especially since my doorbell doesn't face my walkway. I was going to get the peephole camera but learned that it's been discontinued. I think I'll get this and a video floodlight for my backdoor. Thanks for your review, they are so much better than rings videos.
