The new device, now called the Ring Drone Cam, will be available in late January for $250, the company said Tuesday. It has a lightweight, completely overhauled design that bears little resemblance to the drone that Ring originally announced in 2020 and aimed to ship the following year. Ring ultimately decided to abandon that initial version and also scrapped a second attempt that it had been working on as recently as last year.
