Ring, a subsidiary of Amazon, today announced the release of its new Ring Battery Doorbell, the latest addition to its smart home security product lineup. This model introduces Head-to-Toe HD video, a feature that was previously available only in the higher-end Doorbell Plus and Pro models, and it boasts up to 23 percent longer battery life compared to its predecessor, based on commonly used settings.
The Battery Doorbell features a 150-degree by 150-degree field of view, which provides users with a comprehensive view from head to toe of anyone at their doorstep. This capability is particularly useful for monitoring package deliveries, offering a 66 percent taller view than the previous generation, the Ring Video Doorbell – 2nd Gen. Additionally, the device includes color night vision to ensure clear visibility in low-light conditions.
For installation, Ring has introduced a new push-pin mount system that simplifies the process. Users can attach the doorbell to a wall mount with a simple push, and it can be easily removed for battery recharging using a new push-pin tool.

As with all Ring products, the Battery Doorbell includes features such as motion detection with customizable zones, real-time alerts, Live View, and Two-Way Talk. Customers with a Ring Protect subscription can enjoy additional functionalities like Smart Alerts, Rich Notifications, extended cloud storage for video footage, and more. Additionally, users can connect the Battery Doorbell to compatible Alexa-enabled devices to further integrate their home security systems.
