Ring Just Hiked Prices 40%! What 'Protect Basic' Customers Need To Know

The Ring Protect Basic used to be pretty good value - for £2.50 (or $3) per month, you had cloud-based recordings and a bunch of extra features. But on 1st June 2022, Ring announced that they were hiking the price of this plan by up to 40%.

Why did they do this? Are there any alternatives to Ring? Or can you just go subscription-fee with Ring? I answer all these questions, and more, in today's video.

The individual sections of this video are:

1:33 New features for the Protect Basic plan
1:55 Not the only (big) price increase from Ring
2:29 Alternatives: what you could do instead
3:32 Wrapping Up
