PREORDER: Set for a Feb. 24 release date, the new Ring Video Doorbell Wired is available for preorder on Amazon and Ring.com for $59.99. (Add a Ring Chime for $20 more.)


The benefits of owning a video doorbell have only grown over the past year: They give you the peace of mind of knowing who, exactly, is showing up on your doorstep (which is valuable information even if you spend most of your time at home), and make it *way* easier to pull off safe, contactless deliveries and visits.

Amazon's home security and smart home brand Ring is one of the biggest names in the video doorbell game, and starting next month, its convenience and protection will be more affordable than ever before: The company announced this week that it's coming out with a new video doorbell that'll retail for only $59.99, which is a whole $40 less than its standard Video Doorbell

The Video Doorbell Wired, as this new kid on the block is called, is set for a release date of Feb. 24 and was already available for preorder at select retailers as of Jan. 28.

Along with being its most affordable video doorbell yet, the Video Doorbell Wired is also Ring's smallest but that doesn't mean its functionality is limited, the company says. Quite the opposite, in fact: Its 1080p HD camera comes equipped with night vision, advanced motion detection, and customizable privacy zones, and a Two-Way Talk feature with noise cancellation keeps the conversations between you and your visitor(s) crystal-clear. Connect it to your phone (via the Ring App) or any Alexa-enabled smart home device for real-time notifications whenever someone stops by, announced or otherwise.

As with any Ring video doorbell, you can opt to subscribe to a Ring Protect plan to have the device record all of your videos and save the footage for up to 60 days for further review and sharing. (Those are sold separately and start at $3 a month or $30 a year.)

The main difference between the Video Doorbell Wired and Ring's other offerings is exactly what's implied in its name: It needs to be connected to some existing doorbell wiring. (Models like the Video Doorbell Pro, Video Doorbell 3, and Video Doorbell Elite give you the option of wireless battery power.) Fortunately, setup is a cinch: Ring says you can DIY installation without the help of a professional using this guide or the Ring App using an included tool kit.

Note that the Ring Video Doorbell Wired won't sound your existing doorbell chime, so you'll need a Ring Chime or a connected Alexa device to hear audio alerts when someone buzzes in.

Available in a sleek black finish, you can preorder it on Amazon or Ring.com for $59.99. (The latter will throw in a free 30-day trial of Ring Protect, FWIW.)
