Head-to-toe HD view, two-year battery, simple setup, Sync Module Core included – System (White)
Q: Do you have to purchase a subscription to operate?
A: Not entirely , the subscription is so you can get extra motion clips. Basically just a storage cluster I wouldn’t get it personally
Q: Can the device be placed outside under sun, rain, and freezing temperatures?
A: Hello Me and thank you for your question! The Blink Video Doorbell is rated IP-54 weather resistant to rain, dust, cold and heat, within typical limits. It can operate between -4° to 113° F (-20° to 45° C). While the doorbell is water resistant, it is not meant to be immersed in water. Hope this helps! Have a great day!
A: Hello and thank you for your question! On the live view for the Blink Video Doorbell, the microphone is automatically muted. You need to tap and hold the icon on the screen to talk though the Doorbell. Hope this helps! Have a great day!
Q: Do I need to purchase a chime seperately?
A: Hi Gary! No, you don't need to purchase a chime separately with the Blink Video Doorbell System! You have multiple chime options: Included Options: App notifications - You'll always get alerts on your phone when someone presses the doorbell Wired setup - If you connect it to your existing doorbell wiring, it will sound through your home's existing chime Alternative Chime Options: Blink Mini 2 camera (sold separately) can act as an indoor plug-in chime Alexa-enabled devices can announce doorbell presses and show live video The system comes with everything you need: the doorbell, Sync Module Core, batteries, and mounting hardware. Most customers find the app notifications sufficient, but wiring it to your existing doorbell is the most seamless option if you want traditional chimes throughout your home. I hope this information helps, have a great day!
A: Hi there! The Blink Video Doorbell will work just fine with an older Blink system, as long as that system already has a Sync Module. This new version of the Blink Video Doorbell features clearer video up to 1440p, as well as a 150 degree head-to-toe viewing angle. I hope that helps, have a great rest of your day!
A: The battery I got from my blink camera works fine
Q: Do I have to connect the doorbell to my cable or is it independent from my cable provider?
A: Hi SupernaturalWelcome! The Blink Video Doorbell operates completely independently from your cable provider. While the doorbell does require a high-speed internet connection (which could be provided by cable, DSL, or fiber), it doesn't connect to or depend on any cable TV service or cable provider equipment. The doorbell simply needs a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network with a minimum upload speed of 2 Mbps to function. Once connected to your home Wi-Fi, it communicates directly with your smartphone or tablet through the Blink app, sending video and notifications over your internet connection. You can set it up as either a battery-powered unit or wire it to your existing doorbell system (if you have 16-24 volts AC), but either way, it works entirely through your Wi-Fi network without any involvement from your cable provider. Hope this helps and have a great day!
A: Hello Wn4 and thank you for your question! If you choose not to subscribe to the Blink Subscription Plan, the video will not go into the cloud for storage. It will only save to the inserted USB Flash Drive on the Blink Sync Module. Hope this helps! Have a great day!

I bought this as my first smart doorbell and was satisfied, but started second guessing myself when I noticed other brands bragging about how superior their 2k video quality was or how their AI scene description was revolutionary, so I decided to try the Arlo instead. I immediately regretted that decision. And because I wanted to maximize the battery life I hardwired the Arlo, which is the only reason it lasted a few weeks before switching back to the blink. My main problem with the Arlo camera was that it did not start to capture the movement until the person was almost gone, since im in an apartment and its capturing a hallway. This isn’t an issue with this Blink camera which captures motion the moment someone enters into frame. I only ever saw the back of people’s heads with the Arlo. Wireless made it so easy to put up and take down and I’ll just use rechargeable batteries moving forward. Finally, when the trial of the subscription service for Arlo expired I truly gained appreciation for the fact that this Blink camera lets me record on an SD card. Who needs another monthly payment that ends up costing more than the product? This way feels a lot better for privacy reasons too.

I rate the blink doorbell as excelly because it really does cover a wide range of space. It is easy to set up and it has a microphone feature which u can use anywhere you are. The clips it records can be set up on the settings. If my neighbor stops by and I’m not home I have a quick chat with them through my doorbell. I am able to dee what packages get to my house. This blink doorbell really makes me feel safer, secured and protected. I highly recommend this product!!

It works really well along my echo show 15 and amazons fire tvs all I have to do is ask to show the feed and it broadcasts it onto the screens and I even have it programmed via Alexa app to send a chime to all my Alexa speakers and broadcast to the show 15 for 20 seconds so I can see who it is I give it a 10 out of 10 and the subscription is optional and if you do decide to get it, it’s half of what ring costs which is nice I try and get all cameras as blink because it’s cost effective and reliable
