FULL STORY
======================================================================

 This is a breakout news story, which we are updating as more information is 
announced. 

Amazons huge hardware event has kicked off, and were covering all of the 
companys exciting new announcements in our live blog , and first on Amazons 
list is its brand range of Ring smart home products  welcome the new 
signature line of Retinal 4K smart home cameras. 

Starting with the new Ring video doorbell, which is the companys first since 
2023, Amazons smart home security range has received a handful of much-needed 
upgrades, most notably its 4K vision which is a first for Ring. 

Ring Retinal 4K is powering our most advanced lineup yet with Wired Doorbell 
Pro, Spotlight Cam Pro, Floodlight Cam Pro, and Outdoor Cam Pro. Plus, for 
those who want Power over Ethernet devices, we are also introducing Spotlight 
Cam Pro POE, Outdoor Cam Pro POE, and Wired Doorbell Elite, shares Amazon. 
But behold, theres more. 

As well as 4K vision, Amazon is improving Rings capabilities with the 
addition of AI smarts to reveal the tiniest of details. This includes a new 
x10 zoom and improved low-light performance, allowing you to clearly view 
your surroundings in poor conditions. However, it wouldnt be an Amazon launch 
without mention of Alexa+, and youre in luck. (Image credit: Future) Ring

Sharper vision is only the beginning, Amazon says, and the other side of 
Rings new functions can all be attributed to Alexa+, starting with Alexa+ 
greetings. 

Essentially, Alexa+ can act on your behalf as a doorbell assistant. For 
example, if someone arrives at your door, Alexa+ can talk to them and ask 
their reasons for visiting, and will keep you informed as the interaction 
progresses. Itll even be able to assist with deliveries and provide 
instructions for visitors. 

Another smart function coming to the new Ring 4K line is Familiar Faces, a 
feature that can identify familiar visitors and thus reduce notifications 
that are triggered by familiar people. Amazon delves into the feature even 
more: 

'The feature enriches Ring notifications, video events, and timeline with 
personalized context of who is detected, eliminating guesswork and making it 
effortless to find and review important moments involving specific familiar 
people across the Ring App experience'.
