Battery Video Doorbell Pro

My big complaint with newest model is that the picture quality doesn’t seem improved AT ALL from the previous model. At 1536p everything is still kind of grainy and nowhere near as detailed as they make it seem. The good news is- besides that being the worst new “feature, everything else does seem improved. I particularly like the more accurate motion notifications and the way they will describe them in detailed text like “person with black dog walking up driveway to door”.

One thing I always fear when upgrading is drilling new holes. My Ring Doorbell (2020) was starting to show it's age and I wanted a camera with a wider head to toe angle and this didn't disappoint.

Shown on my pictures is the corner kit I used for the Original Ring Doorbell (720p). The 3 corner pieces interlock and I just use a long screw to hold it together on the top and bottom.

The 2020 doorbell didn't exactly fit the original corner kit because it has a bracket that you attach the doorbell to, then secure it with two screws on the bottom. The power is still connected to the Ring Doorbell itself. It did leave very small gap on the top but the doorbell area is sheltered from the elements.

Fast forward to 2025. I was able to remove the old doorbell and old bracket. To attach the Ring Doorbell PRO, I had to remove one of the corner pieces and use the corner kit that came with the doorbell. The power is still attached to the back of the doorbell. The black corner kit is smooth and doesn't lock with the old pieces of the corner kit. It does stay flushed against it. While someone is holding the 3 pieces together, you use the long screw on the top and bottom to secure all 3 pieces. Make sure everything is even.

Once that is done, you can connect the power to the back of the Doorbell PRO. Then use the 4 short screws to attach the Ring Doorbell to the black corner piece that came with the doorbell. Pop in the battery and you are ready to set up in the APP. After the doorbell is added, you can put the cover on and use the short security screw to keep the battery door shut.

It was easy to set up in the APP and it instantly recognized my indoor chime without me going through set up menus. I was back in business and so happy I upgraded.

The motion detection is nice and you need to set the notifications in the MOTION settings. The default is people only. The doorbell itself uses Smart Technology to eliminate all the false alerts.

The setting I used was people, send a notification.
Vehicles, record but don't send notification.
Other motion, record but don't send notification.

The Doorbell PRO is well worth the upgrade! The video is clearer and the pre-roll feature is very nice.

The Ring Battery Doorbell Pro is hands down the best video doorbell I’ve used. The video quality is crystal clear with its 1536p HD+ resolution, and the head-to-toe view lets me see packages on the ground and visitors from top to bottom—no blind spots at all. The 3D Motion Detection is incredibly accurate and really helps cut down on unnecessary alerts.

What really impressed me was that it comes with a wedge mount included, which made installation super easy. I was able to tilt the doorbell just right to get the perfect viewing angle without having to buy any extra mounting hardware. That little detail saved me time and money.

The Two-Way Talk with Audio+ is loud and clear, and the battery life has been solid. I paired mine with a solar charger and haven’t had to worry about recharging since.

If you’re looking for a powerful, feature-rich doorbell that’s easy to install and doesn’t require existing wiring, this is it. Absolutely worth the investment!

This Ring Pro doorbell was purchased as an upgrade to my old Ring 2 doorbell. I was worried that I will have to drill new holes into my brick wall. Information is way too much to sift through and answers are often contradictory. From what I found, I needed a conversion plate, which I also ordered from Amazon. That will now go back, as in fact I did NOT need a conversion. Ring customer service was lengthy and not helpful at all when it came to those questions.

Another confusion was the corner wedge. Some say it’s in the box, some say you’ll have to purchase that separately. Well……it came included inside my pro box. To my amazement even the previously installed corner wedge of my old ring 2 fit perfectly. So all it took was using the same old 4 short screws to replace one device with the other, right on top of the old corner wedge. The holes lined up perfectly, and I didn’t have to mess with the brick wall at all.
