• Do-it-yourself install
• Wi-Fi-enabled
• High-definition 1080p
• Live video streaming
• 100-decible siren
• Cloud recording
• 270-degree motion detection

But like Stick Up Cam and many other home security cameras, the Floodlight Cam is supposed to send you an alert whenever it detects motion. You can also sound the siren, flash the floodlights and talk through the built-in speaker for added deterrence.

In addition to Stick Up Cam and the new Floodlight Cam, Ring also sells a $199 Video Doorbell that acts as a digital peephole between your phone and any visitors. Floodlight Cam helps to round out Ring’s outdoor security lineup with a more robust camera. While the Floodlight Cam will likely require a more involved installation process than the Stick Up Cam, this new camera is a compelling addition to Ring’s outdoor security offerings.
