Ring Announces Release Date and Pricing for AI-Powered Drone Cam
Ring has officially announced the launch of its Drone Cam, an AI-powered indoor security drone scheduled to ship on January 27, 2027. Priced at $249.99, the device serves as a successor to the previously announced but unreleased Always Home Cam. The drone is designed to respond to triggers from Ring sensors—such as motion or water leaks—by flying pre-programmed routes to provide live video feeds and recordings via the Ring app. The hardware features 2K resolution with a 148-degree field of view and weighs approximately 165 grams. To address privacy concerns, Ring is implementing its new 'TAKE' encryption system, which rotates keys every five minutes and deletes cloud copies after 24 hours. While the drone offers mobile coverage that stationary cameras cannot, it has a limited flight time of 5 to 8 minutes per charge.
