Ring may not be the first name that comes to mind when thinking of surveillance cameras, but with the favorable price tag of this camera, it has become a worthy competitor to the other established players in the market. It's especially an attractive option if you already use other Ring products in your smart home, as they can integrate seamlessly with each other to create a cohesive monitoring solution.

The Ring Stick Up Cam is now in its third generation and is proving to be just as useful outdoors as indoors. One of the most important aspects to note is that to trigger recordings with Ring Stick Up Cam, it requires you to subscribe to their cloud storage plans. If you choose not to do this, you will only have the option to watch live video, and recordings will not be available.

Ring also offers a solar panel that you can plug into your camera to provide it with continuous power (according to Ring). By using the solar panel, you don't have to worry about charging the batteries or mounting a camera with a cord, which can be practical and convenient. With Ring Stick Up Cam, you get an affordable and reliable security camera that can be integrated with other Ring devices to increase your safety and convenience in your smart home.
