RING VIDEO DOORBELL PRO 2

Amazon’s Ring brand immediately springs to mind when discussing smart doorbells, but the competition has got hotter recently. Might the new Video Doorbell Pro 2 re-assert its dominance? Coolest of its new tricks is a new 3D motion-detection feature, using depth data to track movement – which you can then inspect on a bird’s-eye-view map. Unlike the widescreen view of previous models, it opts for a square image to give you a fuller picture of what’s outside your door – ideal for packages plonked on the doorstep. On top of that, a crisper 1536p image delivers greater detail than before, while colour night vision provides a clearer view of those 3am cat territory battles.
