Should You Get a Ring Warranty For Your New Doorbell?

Ring manufactures one of the most popular smart doorbells on the market. The company offers four different wired doorbell models and three different battery-powered doorbell models, with prices ranging from $64.99 to $349.99. Should you get an extended warranty to protect your new Ring doorbell?

Ring includes the same limited warranty for all of its devices. According to Ring’s limited warranty, Ring will “warrant the Device against defects in materials and workmanship under ordinary consumer use for one year from the date of original retail purchase.”

If the device experiences a manufacturing defect in the first 12 months, Ring will either repair the device, replace the device with a new or refurbished product, or refund the purchase price. It’s also important to note that Ring requires you to keep the device in its original packaging (or equivalent packaging) when you bring the device in for repair.

For the first 12 months, the limited warranty offers enough protection to ensure peace of mind. However, the warranty only lasts for 12 months. In most cases, you’ll want a functioning Ring Doorbell that lasts longer than just one year. Luckily, you can extend your warranty protection by purchasing an extended warranty.

Ring offers many different doorbells. Some are affordable, like the basic Video Doorbell Wired, which costs just $64.99. However, Ring also has premium options, like the Video Doorbell Elite for $349.99.

If you’re spending $350 on a doorbell, the last thing you want is for the doorbell to break right after the limited warranty expires. If that happens, you’ll have to pair for the repairs (or the replacement) out of pocket. Because Ring Doorbells are expensive, we recommend that you always purchase an extended warranty.

There are many benefits to having an extended warranty, especially if you purchase from an industry leader like Upsie. Upsie’s Ring Doorbell warranties cover a range of defects, including:

• Power failure
• Speaker and sound failure
• WiFi issues
• Mechanical failure

Upsie extends the protection you get from the manufacturer’s warranty for up to three years. In addition, you can make unlimited claims up to the purchase price of the device. For example, if you purchase a $349.99 Ring Doorbell, and it costs Upsie $50 to repair the device, you still have $299.99 remaining in claims.

In addition, Upsie’s warranty overlaps with the manufacturer’s warranty and takes over full coverage once the limited warranty expires. This means your device never goes without protection.

When you purchase an extended warranty from Upsie, there are no disadvantages. Upsie’s prices are affordable and customized to your device, so you never overpay for coverage you’ll never need.

Upsie’s warranties are affordable and cost up to 70% less than warranties you can buy in stores. For example, a three-year warranty for a $169 Ring Doorbell costs just $35.99. This plan gives customers comprehensive coverage, unlimited claims up to the device’s purchase price, and no deductibles.

Upsie adjusts the price of the warranty based on the device’s retail price so that you get the protection you need without overpaying. So, if you purchase the basic Video Doorbell Wired for $64.99, a three-year Upsie warranty will cost just $16.99. Upsie also offers a two-year warranty for $9.99.

Protecting your Ring Doorbell with an extended warranty should be a priority. With an extended warranty, you can protect your device for years without worrying about paying for the high repair and replacement costs. However, not all warranties offer the same level of protection. In addition, warranties from stores are sold with high price markups and are more expensive than they should be.

When you choose to protect your Ring Doorbell with Upsie, you get the best protection at the lowest price. Upsie also offers warranties for security cameras, smart thermostats, and other smart home devices.
