Ring introduces four new 4K cameras and a pan-tilt indoor cam
Ring launched four new Retinal Vision 4K cameras (Outdoor, Spotlight, Floodlight, Indoor) plus a Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam 2K, available now or for preorder in the U.S. and select international markets as of October 7, 2026. This expands Ring's smart home camera lineup with flexible power options and a new default encryption standard called TAKE.
Ring's lineup refresh accelerates commodity compression in the smart home security segment, squeezing third-party sellers and white-label camera brands competing on price — a pattern consistent with Amazon hardware crowding out marketplace sellers in high-velocity categories.
For sellers in the smart home/security category, this is a category reset moment — Ring's 4K lineup expansion will likely compress margins on older Ring SKUs and competing camera brands as inventory gets repriced. Check your Buy Box pricing on any home security camera ASINs immediately and watch for Ring's own listings undercutting third-party sellers.

From the front porch to the living room, Ring today introduced five new cameras built to cover every corner of the home.

Ring is also releasing the new Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam 2K, which follows motion with 360 degrees of coverage. Ring introduces TAKE, setting a new industry standard for default encryption and control TAKE (Throw Away the Key Encryption) will become the default encryption for all Ring customers worldwide when fully rolled out.
4K for every corner of your home Ring Outdoor Cam 4K Last year, Ring set a new industry standard with Retinal Vision 4K. Today, Ring is expanding that lineup into its most flexible and complete 4K offering yet—four new cameras, each built with a wide-angle view, true-color low-light performance, and flexible power options.
The new lineup includes: Outdoor Cam 4K Plus: Ring’s next-generation outdoor camera featuring Retinal 4K, available in battery, plug-in, hardwired, solar, and PoE configurations. Spotlight Cam 4K Plus: Retinal 4K clarity with a built-in 550-lumen spotlight for added deterrence. Available in battery, plug-in, and solar configurations.
Floodlight Cam 4K Plus: Powerful floodlight deterrence paired with Retinal 4K detail. Supports 24/7 recording and smart detection. Indoor Cam 4K: Brings Retinal 4K to Ring’s indoor lineup with a 115-degree field of view, dual-band Wi-Fi 6, and a physical privacy shutter.
Battery, solar, plug-in, hardwired, PoE, indoor, or outdoor—whatever a home needs, there’s a 4K camera that fits. Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam 2K: One camera, always in frame Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam 2K The all-new Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam 2K tackles an inherent challenge with fixed cameras: The things you care about don't always stay in frame.
Your dog gets into something in the corner. Someone walks from one end of the house to the other. A delivery person drops a package on the far side of the porch. Once they move out of frame, you're left with half the story.
The Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam 2K fixes that—360 degrees of pan coverage and 175-degree tilt that intelligently follows motion, so you never miss what’s happening at home. It features 2K video quality, computer vision–based motion detection, and a physical privacy shutter that disables both the camera and microphone when closed.
Whether it’s seeing more clearly, reaching places cameras couldn't before, or keeping what matters in frame, Ring’s expanded camera lineup gives you more ways to see and protect your home.
