    I found a good security device for our house that was easy to setup and install. I can see who is approaching the house and I am able to communicate with that person if needed as well.

    These cameras do the Job and more! Very satisfied with these. Batteries lasted around 8 month for me until I needed new ones. Very easy to set up and the blink app is wonderful. Being able to use a USB to save recording is a PLUS!!! Highly recommend to anybody looking for a security system that's gonna do the job.

    I have 5 of these, and a couple outside. They have so far survived all seasons and weather going on 3 years now. Quality is good. Can set zones to keep high traffic areas from picking up motion.

    I set my cameras up outside.. one for my front door and one for the carport. I do enjoy them, they’re a great set for the price. Good clarity, good night mode, excellent sound. The only issue I have is when you get a notification saying there was motion and you go to check it, it takes forever for my device to load up the video. It just renders, and sometimes asks me to retry because it takes too long. Other than that… *thumbs up*

    Positives - Easy set up. Easy to install. Was able to put cameras all over our property and work well. Looks good day or night. Price was very good as well. Negatives - The app can be slow to bring up the camera. It is challenging to keep watching a camera as it will time-out fairly quickly. Can only see one camera at a time. Finally, to use on my computer I have to use an phone emulator as there isn't a good app to run it on PCs.

    Great camera, easy to use nighttime clarity is decent, I may need to reposition as some outdoor lighting can affect picture. Day time use is very clear and these have ability to pick up sound or conversations! The app is very easy to use

    The ability to scan the code on each camera using the blink app makes setup pretty easy. The app is easy to use. The battery life has been good so far. I’ve had them for almost 6 months and I’m still using all the original batteries. The night vision is good although I’m getting a reflection from the doorbell camera infrared light off the brick of my house that is washing out the video somewhat. An angled mounting bracket might help this, I’m getting about 20 feet of the range of the motion detector which means it’s good for doors and patios but won’t cover an entire backyard.

    Great cameras, they capture everything from animals, people to the smallest things to ensure all is recorded. The cameras are easy to install and wireless with long life batteries that last.

    Not Great

    Blink Cam Outdoor, despite its depiction on the box of working in the rain, is only water-resistant - so not something you actually want to leave uncovered under the rain. The other issue is the batteries do tend to run out and aren't cheap. If you have these set up where they will get 10-15 seconds of action a day, then you will probably get a year or so of use from each camera. Also, you can only record a maximum of a 60 second clip. That's it. Quality isn't as good as say the Google Nest Cams (battery) and the biggest issue is having to sign up for a Blink subscription. It is overpriced for what it is (compared to Google Nest's basic subscription). Even though the sync module in the box will allow you to use a USB stick to save clips without a subscription - there will often be an issue. The tab for saved clips on the app will disappear, formatting the USB drive will be required from time to time, and IFTT will no longer be functional without a Blink subscription. The biggest issue was an outage at the end of 2021 which rendered these cameras completely useless. Always have backup cameras from a different company, you cannot rely on one company in case there are widespread outages like the one Blink experienced at the end of 2021.
