Ring devices come in many different forms: a video doorbell, indoor and outdoor cameras in both wired and wireless formats, and even a whole-home security system complete with sensors and access to emergency services. They integrate seamlessly with Amazon's voice assistant Alexa and connect to other compatible devices via your Wi-Fi connection, making it easy to integrate them into your smart home setup. Ring offers three paid subscription tiers:
Basic for $4 per month / $40 year: One camera or doorbell with video history for 60 days.
Plus for $10 per month / $100 year: All video recording devices, extended warranty, more.
Pro for $20 per month / $200 year: All video-recording devices with 24/7 professional monitoring, alarm cellular backup, and more.
Historically, these security devices are often included in a discounted bundle with an extra camera or Echo Show on Prime Day, which adds on extra value to your savings. Amazon also has a trade-in program that gives you 20% off of your new Ring product with an eligible swap.
2nd Generation Ring Indoor Camera
Ring's first iteration of its all-purpose indoor camera was a solid little unit, packing full HD video and rapid motion-detection response for your home-monitoring needs. The second generation doesn't add a whole lot of new stuff, but it refines the basics and comes with a privacy shield that can cover the lens for those intimate moments. The software has also seen an improvement, with advanced pre-roll capturing up to six seconds before the motion is triggered. A handy mount for walls or ceilings means you can put this virtually anywhere you need it.

Ring Video Doorbell
This is another second-generation product, and the Ring Video Doorbell is a very functional front door security system with a bevy of features. Capturing 1080p video in a 155-degree field of view, it'll keep tabs on your porch or entryway with ease. For power, the Ring doorbell uses a built-in rechargeable battery but can also be wired into a home AC system for continuous charging. One thing to note is the pack-in offer where Amazon will throw in an Echo Show 5 for an extra $10 Amazon. That's a $75 savings on list price just for that, making it a sweet bargain.

Ring Alarm 8-Piece Home Security System
There are a number of different pre-packaged Ring security kits, but the pick for us is $100 off the eight-piece system. You get a base station to network the system together, a range extender to ensure signal, a keypad for easy control, a motion detector and four contact sensors for doors or windows. It's the ideal size for a one- or two-bedroom home. In our review, we praised the quick and easy installation and affordable monitoring service. There are also five-piece and 14-piece configurations available.
- Ring Alarm 8-Piece Kit (2nd Generation) (Opens in a new window) for $149.99 (List Price $249.99)
Ring Alarm Pro 14-Piece Home Security System
The higher-end Ring Alarm Pro system not only keeps close eyes on your windows and doors, but incorporates Amazon's eero Wi-Fi mesh networking system to boost your internet reception throughout the house. In our review, we gave it "high marks for its easy installation, affordable monitoring options, and cross-platform compatibility." Being able to use it as a backup power and internet solution is an exceptional added value. Get $114 off the whole set. There are also eight-piece and 13-piece configurations on sale.

Ring Spotlight Cam Pro with Solar Panel
We reviewed the Ring Spotlight Cam Pro's plug-in configuration, but being able to tap into the free power of the sun makes this extremely versatile camera an even better deal—especially at 31% off. Two 375-lumen LED spotlights frame the camera lens to illuminate the scene, and the unit also boasts color night vision with pre-roll, HDR video, dual-band Wi-Fi, and 3D motion detection. You can also manually activate the spotlight through the app. A 140-degree field of view gives it lots of coverage. The very cool Bird's Eye View feature lets you map out where visitors detected by the camera traveled while in range.
