Here are some of the best video doorbells and home security cameras you can buy, but keep in mind that some of their features (like person identification and package detection) are only available if you have a Ring Home subscription.

These start at $4.99 per month, which also gives you online storage for video clips recorded by your camera or doorbell so you can watch them anytime. For more details, check out our complete guide to Ring subscriptions.

If you don’t want to pay extra, your Ring device will still notify you of any activity it detects and you’ll receive a live feed of it through the mobile app, whether when you received an alert on your device or at any other time.
