the best Amazon tech products to buy
Ring Video Doorbells have become an institution. While some raise privacy concerns about having a video camera on every door down the street, there’s no doubting that connecting your front door has real advantages. For me, the Ring is the video doorbell that makes the most sense.
You can talk to callers while away from home, you get alerts on your phone, you can record suspicious visitors and keep tabs on parcels that get delivered. It’s peace of mind for many and a technological convenience for others. But there is also a dizzying lineup to choose from, with some of the best features only available on expensive models (and pricey monthly subscriptions).
The Ring Battery Video Doorbell Plus has the advantage of simple installation (no wiring required), while providing high-quality video with a wide-angle lens. Normally priced at £129.99, it’s not Amazon’s most expensive camera, but it’s a blend of useful features for a great price. Best of all, Amazon regularly discounts it to £69.99, which is the price it is right now, so I’d recommend snapping one up.
Here’s the price history of the Ring Wired Video Doorbell Plus over the last six months.
