  • Ring Outdoor Cam Plus is the first Ring camera with 2K footage at launch
  • It also offers improved low-light capability and wide viewing angles
  • The camera is weather-resistant, and can be used indoors or outside

Ring has launched a new home security camera that can capture footage at 2K resolution – a big boost from previous cameras, which could only record 1080p at launch. Two of Ring’s outdoor security cameras (the Ring Floodlight Cam Pro and Spotlight Cam Pro) received a software update earlier this year that boosted them to 2K resolution, but this is the first Ring camera that has been able to record at such a high resolution right from day one – and it’s one of the most affordable too.

The new Ring Outdoor Cam Plus has an updated camera with a wide field of view and Low-Light Sight, which should provide crisp color footage in conditions where even the best home security cameras may normally struggle – and without the need for a distracting floodlight.

Like the Floodlight Cam Pro and Spotlight Cam Pro, the Ring Outdoor Cam Plus uses the company’s Ring Vision post-processing to improve balance and contrast, and provide motion-smoothing so the video footage looks as clear as possible on your phone.
