I love this camera ring light! It’s just what I’ve been looking for. I love the look and brightness omg the brightness! I’m excited to use my camera now. I just to hate taking pictures before receiving this light. The only thing I wasn’t expecting was how big the ring was but it’s doable lol. So far so good and I’m happy.

I own this and a Ring, and compared to Ring, the image quality is far better, no video stutter like Ring has. It will track and move with who it is seeing, something Ring does not do. Much better zoom in function with clearer image. May feel cheap in your hand, but all around far better then Ring. I now have 3 in my home and have taken the Ring down and thrown away.

Easy to install and use. Liked the way the ring swivels around the ring.

never write reviews - but this camera - purchased on a whim for a virtual conference - was so much better than my MacBook pro builtin camera - was easy to set up - the ring light is subtle and adjustable. overall really a great value

This is a very good ring light at an excellent price. I attached a photo I took with the ring light behind the camera (this was in a rather dark room, and you can't even tell with the light!) I love the adjustability of both the brightness and the stand. It's a price and quality ratio you really can't beat.

I own 6 Ring cameras. 2 doorbell cams, 1 interior Ring cam, 2 Ring spotlight hardwire cams and this new battery powered with solar array Ring spotlight cam. I have owned Ring cameras for a very long time - long before Amazon bought them. The Ring experience these days under Amazon is far superior to 5+ years ago when Ring was a stand alone outfit. My point here is that I have a LOT of Ring camera experience and I've seen a long list of Ring issues and quirks. I bought refurb because I've never had any issues with the other 3 Ring refurbs I've purchased from Amazon - that didn't work out so well for a number of customers.I added this refurbished battery camera to a high sunlight area on my home that would have been a pain to hardwire. I'll go through a few tips based on my 5+ years of Ring camera use and my experience with this new battery operated Ring camera and solar array combo.I read many of the 1 & 2 star ratings and they center around a few recurring issues:-Missing parts - that's not a camera issue, that's an Amazon issue. Send it back and have Amazon make it right-Camera won't hold signal. Two things here - these folks either lack the proper bandwidth or the camera is too far from the modem. That's it - I've never had any issue with WIFI connection that was not modem or bandwidth related. I have 1 GB Verizon FiOS, the new, updated modem and good proximity to the camera from the modem - it kicks butt. If you do NOT have great WIFI with the latest modem and good proximity, you WILL suffer.-The batteries won't fully power up with the solar array. CHARGE the batteries on a USB power cable indoors to 100% BEFORE you install them in the camera! It took me 7 hours for one battery and 6 for the other to fully charge. I use two batteries - the refurb price allowed me to spend the extra $30 on the additional battery.-You need enough sun - my solar array gets full sun for 8-12 hours a day. If you try to squeak by with 1-3 hours, it can be an issue.-Understand the settings on the camera to conserve power and set up the motion zones and sensitivity. Some of the 1-2 star issues were the result of not fully comprehending those fine details.My four photos show the clarity of view, the solar array installed, the camera installed and the "Device Health" screenshot that shows both batteries at 100% and the solar array properly connected. Like I said - charge the batteries FIRST to 100% on a power cord and then insert them the camera. Both batteries have been outside in this camera for 2 weeks and they are at 100% because I have a ton of sun with no shade trees nearby.Installation can range from a simple 30 minute setup if you have DIY skills to absolute torture if you do not possess the Liam Neeson like "particular set of skills". In my case, I can fix most anything and I used 3 inch stainless trim square drive screws through the vinyl corner posts into the framing underneath. Solid as granite when done. I used a siding separating tool and pulled the siding apart, ran the solar array connection wire under the siding and snapped it back together. Liam Neeson easy - if you have the tools and skills.I've had HUGE issues with Ring cameras early on especially with the doorbell units that were an enormous pain in the butt prior to the Amazon acquisition of Ring. Since then, I've never had an issue with any of the Ring spotlight cams, hardwire or battery powered. Your experience may (will!) vary. Hope that helps!

I really like this little camera. Picture quality day and night is better than my Ring doorbell, very clear and alerts faster than Ring. The app is very easy to use. Camera set up out of box only took a couple minutes. Mounting on house took maybe 30 minutes. The only thing is it won’t connect to Alexa, it says it is connected but Alexa won’t recognize it. Great price too.

Excellent product - easy to install hardware and software. Images are great. Alerts to text and email, and I love that no fee for recording like other companies. I bought a Ring Doorbell at the same time and the Arlo is so much easier. Different functionality to some extent but Ring only partially works. Am considering removing the Ring and adding another Arlo camera out front.The only downside is that there wasn't much information given on optimal device placement.
