Frequently Asked Questions
Which is better overall: Ring Indoor Cam or Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam?
The Ring Indoor Cam wins overall on price, package alerts and its built-in siren. The Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam costs more but rotates 360 degrees, which is the only reason to choose it.
What is the biggest difference between the Ring Indoor Cam and the Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam?
Movement. The Pan-Tilt model has a motorised base that sweeps a full 360 degrees, while the Ring Indoor Cam is fixed with a 115-degree view but costs less and includes a siren.
Does either have a siren?
Only the Ring Indoor Cam. The Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam omits the siren, relying on alerts and two-way talk, which is worth knowing if you want an audible deterrent inside the house.
Do both need a subscription?
Yes. Neither has local storage, so recorded video and person or package alerts require a Ring plan on both, while live view and two-way talk work without one.
Who should buy the Ring Indoor Cam?
Buy the Ring Indoor Cam if you want the cheaper option with a siren and package detection, plus color night vision, two-way talk and motion and privacy zones for a single room.
Who should buy the Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam?
Buy the Ring Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam if you need one camera to cover an entire room, since it rotates 360 degrees, with color night vision, two-way talk and the same zone controls.
