This wired video intercom features improved dual-band Wi-Fi, two-way HD audio, and 3D radar motion detection for improved accuracy and a Bird’s Eye View feature that gives you a bird’s-eye view of monitored areas. According to a CNET review , it also has a wider viewing angle, allowing you to see visitors and packages left at your doorstep.
Ideal for Alexa ecosystem users, the Pro 2 includes Alexa Quick Replies and Greetings features, allowing Alexa to open the door for you. It’s worth noting that integration with the Google Home and Apple HomeKit ecosystems is limited, and some of these features require a Ring Protect subscription, even if you use Alexa. The Ring Chime Pro is a connected device that also functions as an audible doorbell (so you can hear it without relying on your phone) and a dual-band Wi-Fi booster to boost the signal.
Unlike previous Ring models, the Pro 2 is more compact because it doesn’t have a battery. This eliminates the need to spend time charging, but it’s less flexible in placement and requires more complex setup, though many prefer the reliability of a wired model. Reviewers praise the clear image in various lighting conditions, as well as HDR support, which adjusts contrast for better detail.
