Ring and Arlo are two of the more well-known brands when it comes to the best video doorbells. Unfortunately, Ring and Arlo have also recently raised the price of their subscriptions, meaning you'll be paying more over the long run if you want to do even basic things like save video.
Ring increased the price of its Protect Basic Plan for the second year in a row from $3.99 to $4.99. Back in 2022, that very service was just $2.50 per month, or half of what it costs now. A week prior, Arlo in the hot seat for hiking up the price of its subscription, from $4.99/month to $7.99/month. This is a sad trend considering two of the biggest home security manufacturers have increased the prices of their services back-to-back for two years running.
