I didn't need a video doorbell to spy this excellent last-minute gift idea: The original Ring doorbell has dropped to its lowest price ever during Amazon's holiday sale.
That's right, with this phenomenal 45% discount Ring video doorbell is now just $54.99 at Amazon, a price we've only seen once before this year during the Black Friday deals. While the original model is no longer among the best video doorbells we've tested due to its more dated hardware, it's still a remarkable device and offers much of the same features and functionality as newer models.
Amazon currently has some excellent last-minute deals available that will arrive before Christmas (depending on your location), and this brilliant buzzer is one of them – so make sure you shop around before you checkout!
I was never really a video doorbell evangelist until I tried the Ring Battery Video Doorbell Plus earlier this year, and it completely changed my perspective. I receive one lot of parcels for work, a fact that is a constant thorn in my side and prevents me from leaving the house for fear of my parcel being taken back for re-delivery or worse, left somewhere in an unsafe place.
With a video doorbell you benefit from two-way remote communication, making it a lot easier to instruct and assist anyone who knocks. Plus, these doorbells also offer great peace of mind when it comes to security, thanks to customizable notification and detection settings, so you can always tell when someone is approaching (or even walking past) your home.
