  A 150 by 150 degree 1:1 field of view gives the Pro 2 a square, top-to-bottom framing that shows visitors from head to toe and more of the doorway than older 16:9 Ring views, but reviewers note it is still narrower than some 180-degree competitors and can miss packages pressed right up against the door.
• Chime ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 2 reviews 4.3

• Motion detection performance ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 6 reviews 4.1
  3D motion detection with radar can deliver accurate alerts and path tracking and, when combined with tools like People Only Mode, helps cut down unnecessary notifications, but multiple reviews also report occasional false readings and note that wind, traffic, and visual obstructions can still lead to unwanted alerts in some setups.

• Bird's eye view feature utility ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 6 reviews 3.8
  Birds Eye View uses radar to draw an overhead path of visitors and can show how someone approached the door, but newer testing finds that obstructed yards and the regular video feed often provide enough context on their own, so the feature feels like a promising yet nonessential extra rather than an everyday tool.

  Ring's app offers a clean, easy-to-use interface with deep motion and video controls underneath, though it still lacks dedicated package detection.
