Does it need a subscription?

Live view and alerts work without one, but saved and shared recordings need a Ring Protect plan. Without it you cannot review past events.

How long does the battery last?

Ring rates it for months of typical use, but heavy motion traffic drains it much faster. Expect to recharge more often in busy areas.

Yes. It works indoors and outdoors, and the battery means you can sit it on a shelf or mount it on a wall.

No. It is built around Amazon Alexa, so voice control and Echo show integration are the main smart-home options.

Pick the battery model if you have no power where you want the camera. A wired model avoids recharging and gives constant recording.

One camera, one rechargeable battery pack, a mounting base and screws. A charger is not always included, so check before buying.
