Ring has announced an upgraded version of its Peephole Cam, now featuring 2K resolution. This device is designed to replace traditional door peepholes, offering a smart security solution without the need for drilling or permanent modifications, making it particularly suitable for renters.
The original Peephole Cam was introduced in 2019, providing a wire-free video doorbell that transformed standard peepholes into smart security devices. It featured motion detection, two-way talk, and 1080p HD video. However, it was quietly discontinued earlier this year, leaving a gap in the market for such renter-friendly security solutions.
The new Peephole Cam 2K addresses this by enhancing video quality to 2K resolution, ensuring clearer footage. It also boasts a slimmer design and is available in three colors: Speckled Gray, Speckled White, and Matte Mocha. The latter two color options are priced at $109, while the Speckled Gray variant is available for $99. The device is powered by a removable, rechargeable battery pack, offering up to 120 days of battery life, and supports quick recharging.
Pre-orders for the Peephole Cam 2K are currently open on Ring’s official website and Amazon, with shipments expected to begin on August 19.
This upgrade reflects Ring’s commitment to providing versatile and user-friendly home security solutions. By enhancing the Peephole Cam’s resolution and design, Ring continues to cater to the needs of renters and homeowners seeking non-invasive security options. The competitive pricing further positions the Peephole Cam 2K as an attractive choice in the smart home security market.
