Indoor Cam.


Stick Up Cam.


Video Doorbell 3.

All Ring Africa’s home security offerings use HD cameras that connect to your smartphone via the Ring app. Ring cameras take less than 15 minutes to install, come in battery and wired options and start at an entry price point of R1299. You can even connect certain cameras to a Ring solar panel for non-stop power. Popular features include live view and two-way talk, motion-activated recording, night vision, a 1080p HD camera and a siren.

Ring Indoor Cam

With its compact design, the Ring Indoor Cam can be mounted just about anywhere in the home and features up to 1080p HD video, motion zones, night vision, two-way talk and live view, and motion-activated recording. The device also includes privacy features that enable users to disable motion and audio recording right from the app, and an indicator light that displays whenever the camera is recording.

Ring Stick Up Cam

The Ring Stick Up Cam can be installed anywhere – indoors or outdoors – and comes in both battery powered or plug-in power. It features up to 1080p HD video, motion detection, night vision, two-way talk and live view and a wide viewing angle.

Ring Video Doorbell 3

The new Ring Video Doorbell 3 has improved motion detection and enhanced dual-band Wi-Fi alongside the features Ring users know, including a 1080p HD camera, two-way talk and live view. It includes a new, adjustable motion zone, called near zone, which can detect motion within 1,5 to 4,5 m of the front door, as well as enhanced dual-band 2,4 GHz/5 GHz Wi-Fi for improved connectivity.

Ring Video Doorbell 3 includes privacy zones, which allow users to exclude areas of the camera field of view from video recording. Similar to all of Ring’s doorbells and cameras, Ring Video Doorbell 3 features toggles that allow users to turn off video or audio recording for an extra layer of privacy, at any time.

Ring Africa products are now officially available in South Africa through the following retailers: Takealot, Builders Warehouse, iStore, Incredible Connection and Leroy Merlin.
