You're probably fine with the Doorbell 2

Lets you customize motion alerts, Sleek design, Sharp 1080p video, Useful community features
Setup requires an extra Pro Power Kit installation
The Ring Video Doorbell Pro is the best choice if you want to be able to closely customize where movement should trigger an alert. We prefer the August for its easier installation, clever HindSight feature and better smart home integration, but the Ring P...
