Ring's indoor flying camera shown off, US launch set for January 2027
What happened
On November 10, The Verge published a hands-on with the Ring Drone Cam: the indoor home flying camera took off, landed and flew preset routes in a demo. It is planned for a US launch on January 27, 2027 at $249.99. The device weighs 165 grams, shoots 2K, can respond to Ring sensor triggers and run scheduled patrols. Ring says each charge gives 5 to 8 minutes of flight, and each minute of flight needs 8 minutes of charging. Its AI Pilot relies on cloud processing and can only land if Wi-Fi drops. The reviewer did not see obstacle avoidance or stair climbing; Ring was still seeking FCC certification at publication.
