The video quality is substantially better. There is an odd quirk that when you see me on this camera I look like I have a gut. However, in real life I clearly have rock hard abs.
The one thing I don't like on the new ring doorbell compared to my old one is the fish eye view it displays, it's ridiculous! I understand they do that for a wider view, but that's BS because my 2nd gen basic has a very big full range with absolutely no distortion. Not just that, but the pro version displays everything too far away, making it very hard to make out someone face. Overall, I think the Plus version is the best, but like I stated, the fish eye distorts everything which defeats the purpose of identifying someone who might be standing to the side of the camera. It's for this reason why I don't buy the new version. Sorry, but it's a hard pass!
thank you for the follow up, i was worried i was going to have to upgrade/change my transistor. Will get my husband to install it tn.
So is the video quality much better than the original ring camera? Would I look much better on this camera if I came to your door?
