The holiday season is the best time to upgrade your smart home, as retailers keep rolling out discounts for different kinds of devices. If you are looking for video doorbell deals in particular, you should check out the Ring Doorbell deals that are still available, including the 2020 release of the Ring Video Doorbell that Amazon is selling for $100. This is likely your last chance to get the Ring Video Doorbell in time for Christmas, so click that Buy Now button without hesitation.

The second-generation Ring Video Doorbell is one of Digital Trends’ best video doorbells for 2020. Released six years after the original, the new Ring Video Doorbell upgrades the video quality to 1080p from 720p for a clearer look through the device’s camera. The updated version also improves motion detection and night vision, to allow you to better monitor who or what is outside your door.

The Ring app connects to the Ring Video Doorbell, giving you a single dashboard where you can look through the device’s camera and make adjustments to settings. You can also communicate to whoever’s outside your home through the app, which can also push real-time notifications to your phone for specific events such as when someone presses the doorbell or when motion is detected in an area that you defined.

The Ring Video Doorbell is easy to install, as you’ll only have to follow the steps in the Ring app, as well as attach its mounting bracket to your chosen location. For further convenience, the video doorbell is compatible with Amazon’s Alexa for hands-free commands, and you can see who’s outside your front door through Echo devices with displays.

A video doorbell will not only provide you with convenience, it will also help protect your family. The features of the second-generation Ring Video Doorbell will grant you peace of mind for the low price of $100, as sold on Amazon. However, if you want to install the Ring Video Doorbell in your own home by Christmas, or if you want to give it as a gift, you should click that Buy Now button as soon as you can so that you’ll get the device in time.
