Ring warranty for outdoor lighting
The short version
Ring doesn't cover everything, but keeps device hardware covered to 1 year. That full coverage is the same as most of the 9 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Ring's published warranty, checked October 2026.
