OUR TOP PICK: Certified Refurbished Ring Video Doorbell Elite — $199.99
The Ring Video Doorbell Elite is the best all-around pick. It doesn't require existing doorbell wiring, so you can still enjoy all the perks of smart home video monitoring, even if you live in an apartment. Answer the door with your phone, tablet, or PC and connect with your Echo devices to see, hear, and talk to visitors on your doorstep. The Ring Video Doorbell Elite monitors the outside of your home in 1080 HD video and even includes high-quality, infrared night vision. Plus, the Elite comes with lifetime theft protection, so if your doorbell ever gets stolen, Ring will replace it for free.
BEST BUDGET PICK: Blink Mini — $24.99
If you still want an extra level of home surveillance but don't want to shell out money for all the bells and whistles, the Blink Mini is a much cheaper option. This camera is designed to be used indoors, so you can see what's going on inside your home at all hours of the day from your smartphone. The Blink Mini features 1080P HD video, motion detection, and two-way audio, so you can talk to people in your home (or pets, we won't judge) through the Blink app.
BEST FOR HOMES WITH DOORBELL WIRING: Certified Refurbished Ring Video Doorbell Pro — $99.99
The Ring Video Doorbell Pro requires existing doorbell wiring and a transformer (not included), but once installed, it receives constant power. Customize your motion zones to receive notifications whenever there is movement in a certain area, and use Live View to check in on your home in 1080p, at any time through the Ring app. The Ring Pro features more privacy features than its Elite counterpart, enabling you to customize audio and motion alerts to fit your needs.
ANOTHER GREAT DEAL
Certified Refurbished Ring Alarm 5 Piece Kit (1st Gen) — $99.99
The Ring Alarm 5 Piece Kit is a noteworthy option for whole-home security. The kit includes a base station, contact sensor, motion detector, keypad, and range extender and will work with your Amazon Alexa to arm, disarm and check the status of the system with just your voice. You'll get alerts through the app whenever any doors or windows are opened, so you can keep tabs on your entire home.
