Why such poor video quality from Ring devices?

Why is it that Ring video is so subpar? The recordings always start when the person is mid-frame. The video always starts out “jumpy” and the audio skips to match. This happens no matter how the settings are setup. A camera can be 10 ft from the area monitored, but the cameras make it look like it is 50-100 ft away and makes what is seem so small. Poor optics. No zoom ability. “Pinch to zoom” does noting make the video blurry. So you cannot actually zoom in on anything. I have tested cameras from Xfinity home security and an Arlo cam. If only Ring could offer the clarity, optics, and zoom ability to match and exceed its competitors. And when or if Ring ever catches up with advanced technology and offers better video recording … they should offer customers no cost replacement upgrades. Customers should not have to pay to upgrade what they have that doesn’t work as good as others already. A couple of features of Arlo for example: True 2k video resolution. Video is closer to “naked eye” optics (something 10 ft away is closer to appearance of being 10 ft away than tiny and 50 ft away). Auto zoom-in and tracking of target in video. “Pinch to zoom” keeps video clear and doesn’t blur so you can actually zoom in on something or someone and capture a clear image. Xfinity video cameras are close, but just under, the level of quality for Arlo. While they don’t offer zoom and tracking, they do adjust to capture the target. If only Ring could make theirs as good. I have not tried any others like Nest, Blink, or such. But I have not heard any complaints either. Come on Ring. Step up your game and start advancing in the market. It’s time to be on the same level as your competitors or surpass them. Ring video quality is just crappy in general. I trashed at least one camera thinking it was a bad device and replaced it with a new one… it was not the camera. It was the service. I am out about $100 as a result. If only I would have know how poor it was. It’s like ordering food at a restaurant… the food never looks as good as the picture in the menu. Ring is the same. I have never seen any video that looks anything near as clear and with the ability to zoom in with HD clarity, as is shown in the ads. Hindsight is 20/20… I would have same my money and gave it to another competitor with better quality.
