Ring Home Security has taken flight. ✈️🚨
The $250 mini indoor drone camera weights 5.8 ounces and houses a pair of 2K cameras mounted on the front and bottom. It uses a learned map of your home to zoom around autonomously for up to 8 minutes at a time with custom routes to record places a couple of fixed cameras can’t.
CNET managing editor David Watsky is here to give you a first look at the Ring Drone Cam, coming in 2027. #homesecurity #amazonring #ringdronecam #firstlook #securitydrone
Note: The unit demoed is a ‘pre-production model’ and the finals will ship in a dark grey color.

This is actually worth it if you need additional angles. Most window angles are usually from the ceiling. With this you can actually get a better perspective of what happened. For certain households this product will fill in the visibility gap that comes from ceiling line cameras.
