So this is my 2nd Doorbell Pro 2, first one arrived what I believed to be damaged, and now my 2nd one has arrived and is the same, although in a slightly different orientation.Is anyone else's the same? It's the sensor underneath the main camera. Looks like the glass is cracked. This is pics of both of mine. Thanks 1st Doorbell Pro 2![20210404_172342|499x500](upload://j784qChZVnXolmfVXSxQdWxenUf.jpeg)2nd Doorbell Pro 2![20210429_115717|500x500](upload://s8DZDkiEDlzTNLrAYu2WqPuDD3c.jpeg)

    Mine is the same. Just checked it there. @JOSEF Did you notice any improvement with the LED light ring round the button with your replacement device?

      Not installed the 2nd Doorbell yet as would rather wait for Ring to say if this is normal or not. I'm guessing it shouldn't be as they replaced my 1st Doorbell after seeing the pic I'd sent. I can say the transformer with the 2nd Doorbell is labelled differently than the 1st. First branded Delta, this one unbranded completely. Odd!

      I think Delta make the new Ring DC transformers first batch of Pro 2's came with the them branded Delta. I think they should actually be Ring branded as that's what they show as in the Ring store if buying one on its own.

      Well neither are branded Ring hah.So installed the replacement, can confirm the LED is also ridiculously dim. Hoping one of the forum Ring guys can confirm whether the sensor under the main camera is meant to be like that or if it's damaged

    Had a supervisor called Chris phone me last night. Going for 3rd time lucky with another doorbell as they don't believe the crack should be there.Hes thinking that too much glue has been used in the manufacturing process and the pressure of too much glue causing the split/crack in the glass near the sensor

      @JOSEF Hopefully you can post the results of the swap. I am interested in the outcome here and also if your replacement has a better LED light as well.

      Latest follow up to share -"After reviewing some other devices and talking to our manufacturing teams, it looks like the visible defect is a cracking or peeling of material from the inside of the lens as a result of the molding process for the part. We are working to scope a solution for this, but since it is a problem off of the line, many if not most of the devices will have that defect at this time"

        @JOSEF Was that from the Ring support team as a follow up to your case? I agree with the point that all of them are going to be like this and I would also bet all of them have the dim LED issue as well. The issue is there is no point just not trying to get a swap etc as its just going to be the same. If these are manufacturing issues the process will need to be changed which could take quite a while for retooling etc.
