The best Ring doorbell cam and Show 5 bundles in Amazon’s 12 Days of Deals

Video doorbells are the bestselling Alexa-compatible, function-specific smart home devices that work with smart speakers such as the Echo Dot. Today’s Amazon’s 12 Days of Deals include the lowest prices we’ve seen for two Ring video doorbell bundles, even on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. We monitor the prices of smart home devices and device bundles carefully because there are frequent changes. These prices may not last.

The Ring bundles in today’s deals are complete packages with motion-detection video cameras with two-way audio and Show 5 smart displays. You can use the Ring smartphone app remotely with the video doorbell cameras to see and talk with visitors, delivery people, solicitors, and anyone else that shows up at your door. With the Show 5 display, you can view the Ring camera’s livestream and recorded video and talk with visitors hands-free when you’re inside your home. When you use a smart display with the Ring video doorbells, you don’t need to find your smartphone and click on the app. Whether you’re buying Christmas gifts, building a smart home network, or want a convenient audio-video security system for your home, these two deals can help you save up to $150.

Ring Alarm, video doorbells will soon lock free features behind a paywall

Ring is making a few changes to its Ring Protect subscription plans. Later this month, membership will be required for select features that were previously free. Specifically, new customers who pick up a Ring Alarm will need to sign up for the premium service to Arm or Disarm their device from the Ring app and receive digital notifications.

Ring Alarm isn’t the only product seeing changes, as Ring doorbells and cameras will also need a subscription to set them into Home or Away mode. The same goes for customizing settings to enable Live View with each of the above modes. Changes to the Ring Protect plans will take place on March 29, although they won't impact all users.

5 tips and tricks for the Ring Video Doorbell

The Ring Video Doorbell is one of the best smart doorbells of 2023. Not only is it affordable, but it can capture HD video, store footage for later review, and is remarkably easy to install regardless of your existing setup. However, if you’re looking to make the most of your fancy smart doorbell, you'll want to dive into its accompanying smartphone app and make a few tweaks to your settings. Here are five tips and tricks for the Ring Video Doorbell to improve its performance.
Set up your motion zones

The first thing you’ll want to do after installing your Ring Video Doorbell is set up motion zones. These are customizable areas that will trigger an alert if motion is detected -- and properly setting them up will save you the headache of getting unwanted updates. To customize your motion zones, load up your Ring app and tap the three lines at the top of your screen. From there, select Devices, then navigate through Motion Settings to Motion Zones. You’ll now be able to add zones and adjust the size of existing zones.
Turn off motion notifications
