Ring was an early pioneer in the market of high-quality video doorbells, and the Ring Video Doorbell 4 continues to build on the brand’s reputation.

However, the latest battery-powered video doorbell from Amazon’s Ring brand is an iterative improvement rather than a revolution. 

It offers minor improvements, making it great for someone looking to get their first video doorbell, but not rewarding for someone looking to upgrade from a previous model.
