Our opinion

It is easier to justify where 2.4 GHz congestion is a problem; otherwise the base wired 2K model is much cheaper.

What stands out

  • 2K head-to-toe view
  • Dual-band Wi-Fi
  • Plug-in or low-voltage wiring

Watch-outs

  • No local recording
  • Recorded history requires Ring Protect
  • Professional installation may add cost
