Ring’s video buzzers are among the most advanced on the market. Your existing Video Doorbell Pro comes with a lot of features, including a 1080p camera and an integrated infrared sensor. The new generation builds on that and adds extra technology, making it one of the best products in its category.

The company has developed two new features called 3D motion detection and Bird’s Eye View, which are offered exclusively in Video Doorbell Pro 2. They use a radar sensor to identify objects and people and accurately assess their distance from the camera. Thanks to this, you can customize the motion detection alerts to be triggered only when a visitor is close enough to your door, thus preventing you from being notified when a car passes by.

The radar sensor also powers the Bird’s Eye View feature, which creates an aerial map of the path someone took before arriving at your door. The latter can be reviewed live or in your event history if you have a Ring Protect subscription.

In addition, the new doorbell comes with a 1536p camera, which offers a video format from head to toe, allowing you to better see who is at your door and what is potentially carrying, as shown above. Video Doorbell Pro 2 also comes with enhanced audio and a matrix microphone, helping you to speak clearly to potential visitors and limit sound distortion.

Video Doorbell Pro 2 also comes with the great features of its predecessor, such as end-to-end encryption, customizable motion zone detection, Alexa Greetings and intelligent responses.

Ring Video Doorbell Pro 2 can be pre-ordered on Ring.com and Amazon.com for $ 249.99. It will go on sale on March 31. If the new features aren’t relevant to you, the price of the original Ring Video Doorbell Pro has dropped to $ 169.99, making it more affordable if you don’t need the enhanced radar and audio sensor.
