Ring Spotlight Cam Pro, Plug-In | 3D Motion Detection, Two-Way Talk with Audio+, and Dual-Band Wifi (2022 release) – Black

Works great!
Mounted this outside the garage and ran the power cord inside. The picture quality is great and I’ve not had any problems with it connecting to my home wireless network. It only took maybe 5 minutes to install and another 10 or so to set up. Notifications are easy to configure and it’s nice getting an alert on my phone and Apple Watch when someone or something moves in the area I configured for it to watch. Great value for the money!

Easy to install and Setup
Great Product, easy to install and easy to set up. Still trying to figure out the right sensitivity setting, at first it was very sensitive and drained the battery in like 2 days. Reset to the lowest and great battery life but doesn’t always pick up objects in the yard. nothing against the product just need to find the right settings for me.

Pretty Solid Camera
Spotlight Cam Pro is, so far, a good camera with some nice features. Installing it was rather simple. When you setup the camera, you just scan the QR label with your phone and follow the steps.The spotlight feature is pretty useful for smaller areas, but it won’t light up a large area. You’d probably need the Floodlight Cam Pro if you need to add light to a larger area, but those need to be hardwired to function. The audio recording is pretty good, it picks up voices and footsteps from 20ft away. The video quality is nice too, it’s not 4k but the 1080p is still good. The birdseye view works, although I don’t quite understand the full scope of what it could be used for. Also, the Pre Roll function is strange. It pre records motion, but the quality is like that of a Playstation 1. Super grainy and pixilated. And once the “Pre Roll” ends, the quality clears up. But at that time, the person or vehicle or whatever caused the recording to begin is too far away to be recorded in good quality. So, again, I don’t quite understand what the “Pre Roll” function is useful for.These cameras also come with Enhanced Colored Nightvision and HDR. I can’t say I’m super thrilled with the way these cameras handle the light. It’s dusk at this very moment, and there’s still some light in the sky, but the Pro cameras are already in Nightvision mode while a couple other Camera Plus cameras I own still show a colored Live View. I included pictures of the Pro Cam and my Video Doorbell Plus, at the same in the evening, and you’ll see what I’m referring to.You can set schedules for camera motion and the cameras lights, and you can also create light groups if you want to turn on certain lights on certain cameras. So I have 2 Cam Pros on the front of my house in a group, so I can turn on those cams lights independently of the other cameras I have installed in the back of my house. Then I have the rear house cams in a group to turn them on at the same time if necessary.You can talk to people through the camera as well, just like with the Ring Doorbells. There is also an alarm you can activate if you ever need. There is also an Emergency Services function in which you can call police or the fire department through the Ring app, in case you witness anything on your property that requires an emergency response.One thing I noticed, which may or may not mean much, is the boxes in which the Spotlight Cam Pros came in. One of the boxes is fancier. All the lettering is silver, and raised, the blue background used for text is darker, and it has the signature of the inventor on the side of the box while the others don’t. So I don’t really know if that means anything. I don’t know if the cameras have anything different going on internally in terms of the quality of hardware used or if it means one camera is older and/or newer than the others or what.Overall I’m very pleased with the purchase of all these cameras along with the Ring Doorbell Plus. They’re all functioning the way they were meant to and I would recommend them to anyone trying to add some protection to their homes.

Not a bad little camera and the motion light is very handy.Installation was easy and getting the unit online was a breeze.Battery life is very dependent on how often the light comes on and how bright the light is set, but it’s not bad. The extra battery slot is a great idea and I immediately got an additional battery for it.The camera is a little more grainy that expected but good enough for home security.

The birdseye features doesn’t work well yet given the map partner doesn’t have imagery for Australia. Amazon needs to fix. They’ve said it’s on their roadmap.Otherwise the camera is great and new 2022 technology over the previous 2018 one.

I’ve got several of these now, and when they are linked to a Ring Solar Panel, it’s “set and forget” – no need to ever change batteries. The customer service at Ring is also excellent and they definitely take an interest in the products they sell as they continually update the software with nice features and enhancements.
