Amazon has dropped the price on a Ring bundle that’s built for one job: spotting what’s happening inside—and flagging when a door or window gets opened.
For Prime Day, the Ring Indoor Cam Plus and a window or door contact sensor bundle is now $45, down from $80.
What you get is a plug-in indoor 2K camera paired with a contact sensor in one package. The camera records in Retinal 2K video and supports up to 6x Enhanced Zoom. designed for getting a closer look at what’s going on in a room. It also brings advanced motion detection and customizable motion zones. letting you focus alerts on the areas that matter most instead of treating every corner the same.
When it comes to communicating, the setup includes two-way talk with noise cancelation, so you can speak with people at home. There’s also a remote-activated siren, plus improved color viewing in low light.
The bundled contact sensor is where the “entry alert” part kicks in. It sends real-time alerts when a door or window opens and does not require a base station when using Amazon Sidewalk.
Getting it running is meant to be fast. The camera needs a standard outlet and 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, and the estimated installation time is 5 to 10 minutes. The sensor runs on two included CR2032 batteries and is rated for up to three years of battery life.
A quick sequence is doing the work here: you plug in the indoor 2K camera. connect it to 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi. and set motion zones for where you want alerts. Then the contact sensor watches for openings and feeds real-time alerts without needing a base station via Amazon Sidewalk—while the camera handles low-light color. two-way talk. and a remote siren.
For Prime Day pricing, getting the camera and the sensor together at $45 looks like the kind of discount that turns “nice to have” monitoring into something more practical.

So it’s $45 now? Might grab it if it actually works and doesn’t glitch all night.
Wait does it need a base station or not? The article says no base station with Amazon Sidewalk but then I feel like it’s always “kinda” needs something. Ring always has extra fees somewhere.
The siren part sounds cool but I swear those cameras are always delayed. Like by the time it alerts you, the door already did the door thing. Also Sidewalk is that thing Comcast was talking about? Idk, confusing.
Prime Day deal for $45 seems too good like they’re baiting you into buying the rest. “Retinal 2K” sounds like marketing lol. If it needs 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi only, my whole house is mixed bands so I’ll probably mess it up. But yeah $80 to $45 is a big drop… maybe I’ll try it anyway.
