    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.

    I LOVE these cameras. The only thing I would say could improve is the range that it detects movement. The quality of the picture is great day/night. The sound is also perfect. This was definitely worth the money! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a camera system at home.

    These cameras are amazing! Easy to install for indoor or outdoor use. Video quality is legitimately HD and you won't find a better one with a list price. I will be buying more.

    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.

    We bought these to put outside our door after we had a couple packages stolen. They were super easy to install and they're very easy to use. It connects to your phone & comes with its own router that you connect to your wifi. Also you're able to have 2 way communication and the clarity is great.

    Best Buy for your money. You get real time alerts even when you’re away from home. No monthly fees tied to these cameras. I have a total of 3 outdoor cameras from Blink. Super easy set up and install. I tell everyone, don’t buy a Ring, buy a Blink.

    Never had a security camera before, so I didn't know what to expect. For a wireless camera, the Blink has great range, sound, and clarity. We basically got it to keep an eye on our neighbors who we've been having issues with in regards to noise disturbances and violations. Just having the camera in place has helped. You can view everything right from your phone. The only thing to be mindful of is the usage, as it comes with a lithium battery that says its good for two years, but with more usage will deplete that length. We've only had ours for a few months so we'll see how long the battery actually lasts. I would definitely by this product again and probably add a second camera in the future.

    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*

    Love this system so much, I bought a second set to give as a gift. Super easy to use, no monthly fees unlike competitors. Wish it had come with a memory stick but aside from that, it’s an all in one package

    I have bought and tried using many other outdoor security cameras, hands down blink system is the ultimate. Easy to set up, settings to exactly how you want, night vision great, talk button is awesome. The price is more than reasonable, no monthly fees, etc.. Im purchasing more .

    Works great. Would say this is an entry level camera but for the situation I need it for it works great ! Decent night vision. Barely a delay once you tweak the settings. Being able to use a flash drive to not have to pay the subscription is awesome !

    Overall a solid camera system. I gave it three stars because nighttime recordings are not very clear unless the area is well lit up and it records in black and white at night. Blink claims that the batteries can last up to 2 years however if you have a high traffic area the batteries will run out quickly. The lithium batteries these camera use are very expensive. I got them at half price but I wouldn't pay full price for them.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
