Ring is overhauling its home surveillance hardware with five fresh units, pushing higher-resolution video across both interior and exterior hardware.
The update is headlined by four devices equipped with what the Amazon-owned company calls Retinal Vision 4K imaging, alongside a motorized pan-tilt model. On Amazon's US marketplace, pricing starts at $69.99 for the Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam 2K and tops out at $219.99 for the Floodlight Cam 4K Plus.
Moving Indoors With 4K and Motorized Tracking
Inside the house, buyers get two distinct options. The Indoor Cam 4K, selling for $99.99, represents Ring's initial push bringing 4K capture indoors. It includes a 115-degree field of view, dual-band Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, and Auto HDR to clean up tricky high-contrast daylight inside living rooms. Ring also built in up to 10x Enhanced Zoom and a physical lens cap that can be clipped on, while the microphone toggles off directly inside the software. A Power over Ethernet setup is also listed.
Sitting underneath that on price is the $69.99 Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam 2K. Rather than relying on a static frame, its motorized mount rotates 360 degrees horizontally and tilts 175 degrees up and down. An automated tracking function swivels the lens to follow pets or people during live streaming and captured clips. It features up to 6x zoom and a sliding privacy shutter that mechanically shuts off video capture and the mic simultaneously. It will sell alongside the older 1080p Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam HD, which stays listed at $59.99.
Outdoor Coverage and Power Choices
For perimeter monitoring, the Outdoor Cam 4K Plus sells at $149.99 for its battery trim, marking the first time Ring has offered battery power on a 4K unit. The camera can also be purchased in plug-in, solar, hardwired, and PoE flavors. Hardware extras include radar-powered 3D Motion Detection, 10x zoom, and an app-triggered siren.
The Spotlight Cam 4K Plus runs $199.99 for its battery configuration, with the same five power options on tap. Its integrated illumination hits 330 lumens out of the box to preserve charge, though users can dial that up to 550 lumens via settings. Ring bundles one Quick Release Ultra Battery Pack and provides an empty second slot for prolonged uptime.
At the top sits the Floodlight Cam 4K Plus at $219.99. It pairs the high-resolution sensor with hardwired 2,000-lumen floodlights and continuous 24/7 video recording. Installing it requires a four-inch round, UL-certified weatherproof electrical box.
Release Schedule
Availability splits across two waves. The Indoor Cam 4K and Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam 2K arrived on shelves on October 7 across the US, Canada, the UK, and several European markets including Germany, France, and Spain. The pan-tilt version is also selling in Australia and New Zealand.
The three outdoor devices are currently on preorder. US Amazon listings show shipping starts on October 27.
