Ring Brings 4K Video to Battery-Powered Doorbells for the First Time

Ring is introducing its first-ever battery-powered 2K and 4K doorbells, delivering sharper video and more flexible installation across its doorbell lineup. Starting at £59.99 and available for pre-order today, the new doorbells bring even clearer video to homes. In addition to the new doorbells, Ring is also expanding the brand’s 4K camera portfolio, with new Spotlight Cam Pro. Each device also includes a free trial of Ring AI Pro, which unlocks features like intelligent video search and descriptions.

Premium 4K Video Clarity

Battery Video Doorbell Pro (2nd Gen) is Ring's most advanced battery-powered doorbell to date. It features Retinal 4K video and delivers up to 10x Enhanced Zoom, capturing front-door activity, packages, and other details with greater clarity day or night.

A redesigned internal architecture powers Ring’s fastest-charging battery to date, helping the device stay up and running while supporting high-resolution video and advanced features. The result is front-door security that installs virtually anywhere without rewiring.

Three New 2K Doorbells

Alongside the 4K doorbells, Ring is introducing three new Retinal 2K doorbells at different price points and installation types:

Battery Video Doorbell Plus (2nd Gen) features a Quick Release Battery Pack, making it faster and easier to recharge while delivering sharp 2K video.
Battery Video Doorbell (2nd Gen) offers clear 2K video and up to 6x Enhanced Zoom in a streamlined, rechargeable design.
Wired Video Doorbell (2nd Gen) includes Retinal 2K Video and is designed for homes with existing doorbell wiring.

New Solar Accessory for Continuous Power and Flexible Installation

Ring is also introducing a solar accessory designed to provide more flexible installation options for battery-powered doorbells. Available at launch, Ring Solar Charger will support Battery Video Doorbell Pro (2nd Gen), Battery Video Doorbell Plus (2nd Gen), and Battery Video Doorbell (2nd Gen).
