Customers are saying

Customers find value in the Wi-Fi Smart Mailbox Sensor for its mail notification feature, which conveniently alerts them when their mail arrives. The easy setup process is also appreciated, with users describing it as simple and hassle-free. However, some customers express concerns about the requirement for a bridge to operate the sensor and the relatively short battery life, which necessitates frequent battery changes.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged). Select reviewers may receive discounted products, promotional considerations or entries into drawings for honest, helpful reviews.

    This unit works fine. You just can’t share it with others like you can with the cameras, which they don’t mention.

      Hi Rocko.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

      At Ring, we believe in keeping people close to what’s important. That is why we are driven to create products that help you protect what matters most at home and empower you to connect with your visitors from wherever you are. Together, we’ll make neighborhoods safer!

      We are constantly striving to improve our products, and your feedback is an invaluable part of that process. The Ring Mailbox Sensor is a wireless, battery-powered motion sensor that tells you when your mailbox is opened. The Ring Mailbox Sensor works with your Ring app and sends notifications to a smartphone or Alexa-enabled device when the device detects motion.

      With linked devices, the Ring Mailbox Sensor can be set to trigger Ring Video Doorbells and Security Cameras to begin recording, or smart lighting can be set to illuminate as soon as motion is detected at your mailbox. A Ring Bridge is required to receive notifications from Smart Lighting.

      Visit our support center for more information.

      Ring Community was launched to help deliver the most current news and educational information to our neighbors. This online forum is divided into four categories: Product Boards, Ring Updates, Tips + Tricks, and a Moderators’ Corner. The Product Boards are where you can begin new topics with your questions or feedback; there is also a search option that helps you find topics that have already been posted by other neighbors.

      All the best,
      Nicole from Ring. Ring

    Pretty easy to install, does not come with a lot of instructions so you have to watch some YouTube videos.

    Had to send it back, my mailbox wasn’t the old school kind. That’s the only reason it was sent back.
