Q: QuestionCan the base be removed? I'm looking for a camera for a very small space.(1 answer)
A: AnswerHello Jane, thanks for reaching out! Yes, you can remove the base (or mount) from the Blink Mini 2 camera, and it's designed to be a snug fit, so you might need to pull with a bit of force. I hope this answers your question and I hope you have a wonderful day!Answered by Amazon Devices Customer Support
Q: QuestionHow long is the power cord that is included with this camera?(1 answer)
A: AnswerThe Mini 2 Camera comes with a 6' power cable.Answered by Blink
- A: AnswerThe Blink Mini 2 was not designed to function correctly while viewing through a window. Motion detection and night time image quality can be impacted; therefore, we do not recommend installation placement for viewing through a window or glass.

Truly a Best Buy from Best Buy!
I ordered two Blink Mini 2 cameras from Best Buy because it was definitely a "best buy"! The cameras are a significant upgrade from the previous model—much more robust. However, they unfortunately do not work with the existing pan and tilt units. The power adapter has been changed to USB-C, but even with an adapter, the camera does not recognize the rotating base. On the plus side, the cameras do not require the sync module, which may be an advantage for some users. The cameras come with two mounting options, like the previous version, but now they also feature a reset button. All in all, it was a great purchase, and the shipping was lightning fast. Thank you, Best Buy!!

Disappointing and not worth the purchase
I really liked these cameras at first but after having them for over a month, I’m extremely disappointed. Quality is good, sound is good, night vision is good, but I wish we had the option to record what we are seeing in real time. From time to time I will check the cameras manually and see something cute (my cats cuddling or something) but there is no “record now” option. It chooses on its own when to record, however, the clips are often cut into pieces and the thing being recorded isn’t recorded for long. Lots of cute “movement detected” recordings are cut way too short. Another huge disappointment is realizing the monthly payment once the free trial is over is $12/month. That’s ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!! I can’t stand these money gouging subscription tactics. You already made the money off me buying your product, now I have to CONTINUE paying for it to be actually useful? I am a nurse and I work 12 hour shifts, leaving my pets alone during that time. I am not able to manually check the cameras often. Not being able to get any motion detection notifications unless I spend more money is ludicrous and makes the whole purchase a waste of time. My home can get broken into, and I would not know, because I refuse to spend that unnecessary extra money. If you are considering this product, look elsewhere. There are cameras a little more pricier that will give you all the same features and MORE without needing to continue paying more each month. I WISH I did my research earlier.
