If you’ve ever wondered who was at the door without having to open up to potential strangers, the Ring Video Doorbell is the perfect solution to your worries.
With a built-in digital camera that alerts you when there’s activity on your doorstep, it’s a must-have for keeping your home safe and secure, even when you’re out. This high-tech doorbell allows you to see, hear, and speak to visitors through the designated Ring app, which also lets you check-in on things while you’re out.
Compatible with Alexa, the Ring doorbell can be used for hands-free monitoring from anywhere inside your home. Enable announcements in the Alexa app to hear alerts when anyone presses your doorbell or triggers Ring’s built-in motion sensors, then talk to visitors by simply saying “Alexa, talk to the front door.”
With over 10,000 reviews on Amazon.com, this little device is a best-selling choice for shoppers. Many of them are raving about the convenience and peace of mind that Ring has brought them.

“Perfect for home security on a budget! I can see who’s at my door, I know when there is movement, I know when to ignore or answer, and I know if someone unwanted was around in the middle of the night!” shared one reviewer who was impressed with the Ring’s video capabilities.
Another shared how the device has helped to care for their aging mother, writing, “This bell has helped her and I be more independent. If she forgets her keys or doesn't remember where the hidden one is she rings and I can pick up from anywhere and give her direction.”
Right now as part of a limited-time sale, the Ring Video Doorbell 2 is $50 off on Amazon, bringing its price down to $199 for the device, or as part of a bundle with the Amazon Echo Dot.
