Ring Holiday Gift Guide
By Ring on November 22, 2024
The holiday season is upon us, which means it's time to start thinking about gifts for the special people in our lives. To help make your shopping a little easier, we've put together a gift guide highlighting the perfect Ring device for everyone on your list. Whether your loved one is a renter who's just moved into a new place or a pet owner, this guide has something for everyone.
Gifts for Parents
The holiday season is a wonderful time to slow down, celebrate traditions and connect with loved ones. With a Video Doorbell, you can keep your parents close to what's happening at their front door. This gift makes it more convenient to answer the door even when no one’s home. With Quick Replies, Alexa can automatically say a pre-selected greeting or homeowners can use Two-Way Talk from the Ring App to let guests know when they’ll be back. You can also help your parents get in the holiday spirt by dressing up their new video doorbell with holiday-themed faceplates.
If your parents will be hosting this year's holiday festivities, gift them some Pathlights to brighten the walkways leading up to their home, ensuring guests arrive to a warm and well-lit environment. Pathlights automatically turn on to help guests walk around safely, especially when surfaces are dark and slippery from winter's frost. Add more brightness to areas of your parents' home such as stairs and decks by gifting them a Solar Steplight which turns on when motion is detected. Either of these fixtures are sure to illuminate their home and bring a sense of safety and cheer to their holiday celebrations.

Gifts for Renters
Living in a rental doesn't mean sacrificing convenience. So, when shopping tech gifts for renters, consider items that are space-saving and enhance their living experience without requiring permanent installations.
The Apartment Starter Kit makes for an excellent gift, as this kit comes with the essentials needed to detect activity around an apartment. It includes an Indoor Cam which increases visibility into what’s happening in the apartment. The camera includes an adjustable mount and can be plugged in wherever there's a power outlet. The Indoor Cam can capture every moment with 24/7 Recording.1 A Ring Home Premium subscription is required and sold separately. The kit also includes a Peephole Camera which is easy to install, only taking minutes to set up or take down. With this camera, renters don't have to worry about getting up to answer their door and can see who is there when they receive notifications from their Ring App. These devices don't require permanent installation, making it easier for renters to stay connected to what's happening in and around their apartment.
Gifts for Pet Owners
For pet owners on your holiday shopping list, consider these smart home gifts that will make caring for their furry friends more convenient and connected.
Pets often venture beyond the confines of their home. A Ring Pet Tag is a great gift to help your loved one bring a missing pet back home. A Pet Tag can be attached to any collar and provides a simple way to reunite lost pets with their owners. When found, anyone can scan the engraved QR code to access the pet’s Pet Profile, which includes contact information that can be used to initiate a reunion via the Ring App. The Pet Tag makes for a thoughtful gift for the pet owner in your life, helping to protect their furry friend.
With a Pan-Tilt Indoor Cam, pet owners don’t have to be at home to stay connected to their pets. This camera rotates side to side and from top to bottom, eliminating blind spots and helping your loved one keep an eye on their pet as they move about the space. To tune into what their pet is up to, the owner can watch real-time footage anytime from the Ring App.

A Flood & Freeze Sensor can detect the presence of water, whether a significant flood or a minor leak.

With a Ring Alarm Base Station, the sensor sends a notification to the Ring App when you have a Ring Protect subscription, sold separately.1
