Ring - Chime Pro - White

The Ring Chime Pro is a practical Wi-Fi extender and indoor chime for existing Ring users but falls short for those with diverse smart home setups or higher Wi-Fi demands.

The Ring Chime Pro is primarily designed as a Wi-Fi extender and indoor chime for Ring doorbell and security camera users. It does a solid job boosting your Ring device's Wi-Fi signal, which can be a lifesaver in larger homes or places with spotty coverage. The built-in chime feature lets you hear alerts inside your home without relying on your phone, which is convenient if you don’t always have your phone nearby. Setup is generally straightforward, and it integrates seamlessly with the Ring app and Alexa ecosystem. However, it has limitations. The device only works with Ring products, so if you have a mixed-brand smart home setup, it won't extend Wi-Fi for non-Ring devices. Also, the Wi-Fi extender function is limited to 2.4 GHz networks, which might slow down other devices on your network if heavily used. The sound options for the chime are somewhat basic and not very customizable compared to competitors. This product is perfect for existing Ring users who need better Wi-Fi coverage for their outdoor devices and want an indoor chime option. If you don’t own Ring cameras or doorbells, or if you want a more universal Wi-Fi extender, you should probably look elsewhere. For example, if you need a multi-brand Wi-Fi extender or more advanced chime features, alternatives like the Eufy Chime or Nest Wifi points might be better suited. Overall, it’s a convenient add-on for the Ring ecosystem but limited outside of it.
