We've all seen Ring doorbells. They're becoming almost synonymous with the product itself, with their distinct chimes and silver aesthetic showing off a household's commitment to home security and easy delivery pickup.
And for a limited time, the Ring Battery Doorbell Plus is at its lowest price ever at Amazon. It's the model we gave five stars and crowned as the best video doorbell after testing, thanks to its full feature set, vibrant picture quality, and rapid notifications.
Of all the early Amazon Prime Big Deal Days deals, this is the one to snap up if you've been waiting to invest in your home security – a rare opportunity to grab a top model at a steal price. And if you're planning on getting the Basic monthly subscription, you can consider that the first 14 months are paid for.
Why now is the prime time to shop the Ring Battery Doorbell Plus
If you want eyes on your front door and to catch deliveries while you're out, a video doorbell is essential, and the Ring Battery Doorbell Plus has everything you need for a clear view and instant notifications.
Its 1536p HD+ camera is outstanding at picking up faces, package details, and even delivery driver uniforms in the daylight or nighttime, with a complete head-to-toe view of who's at the door. It's one of the easiest and most effective home security tips that any household could install.
That's because installation is as simple as drilling in four screws or, if you're renting, you can opt for a $13.98 adhesive mount at Amazon, making it an easy renter-friendly security option.
As it's battery-powered, you don't need to wire it into your home's existing electrical or doorbell socket. One charge can last as long as a year, depending on which features you have activated, and it takes less than a day to recharge when it's time.
The audio is crisp, and what sets the Ring Battery Doorbell Plus above competitor models is noise cancellation. Wind, rain, cars, and even planes are almost muted when using the two-way audio, and each voice comes through clearly.
There are three monthly Ring subscription plans available: $4.99 for Basic, $9.99 for Standard, or $19.99 for Premium every month. We recommend using Standard to get the core functions without overpaying, but with Basic, you still get up to 180 days of recorded video events, and set notifications for people, packages, and vehicles.
With this $70 discount, that's saving enough money for 14 months of the Basic plan, or seven months of the Standard plan. That's big.
The Ring Battery Doorbell Plus is available for $79.99 at Ring and Amazon.

Want to shop around? We've spent months testing video doorbells, and here are three more of our favorites.
All prices were correct at the time of publication.
Instead of having to pay for a subscription every month, the eufy E340 video doorbell has its core features available without one, and you can even store recent videos using the 8GB local storage. It has a 2K FHD camera, with a second camera pointed downwards to capture package details.

If you're not fussed by the fancier features, the Blink Video Doorbell costs a fraction of what the top Ring and eufy models do, while still boasting all the essential features needed to protect your home and speak to guests and couriers.

We're still testing the Arlo 2K Wireless Video Doorbell, but its spec shows a wider, 180-degree field of view compared to the Ring, eufy and Blink models above, and it has a built-in siren for extra security.
