After a sting of thefts in my local area I decided to put up cameras. Let me say that this has paid for itself. The ease of use on this product is mind blowing. I was intimidated at the thought of installing cameras but I had this up in under 10 minutes. The app is super user friendly and I’ve installed this system in two family members home because they were so impressed.

Super simple to set up, BUT, the notification sound is horrible. Very low volume, and from what I've researched, there is nothing to indicate they are going to improve this. On the flip side, the motion detector is very sensitive, which is a good thing; the camera range and visibility are clear even at night, and the sound is also very good. But, I would never buy this again for another portion of my house, simply because the purpose of an outdoor camera (for me) is to be notified properly with an alarm of some sort, or at the very least an option to have an alarm, and this does not have that. If you just want a camera to bird watch and not for security purposes, this is your gadget.

This is my 2nd set of Blink cameras, I dicided to purchase new ones once I realizeds that a new generation (3) was availabile. I have experience no problems installing and setting up. Does not hurt to have the insurance plan that is offered.

The cameras work very well at picking up motion and recording events. The audio is not as useful. Battery life is good and working with the phone app is good.

Blink Cameras are Winners!

I added these cameras along with the main unit to my existing Blink system. Now I have separate systems so I can monitor more areas, including the outside. These cameras are similar to the ones I bought last year, but Blink has greatly improved the back of the cameras, making it much easier to open and close the battery compartment. The cameras are very easy to set up and use.

Not Reliable - Cameras Go Off Line Regularly
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The cameras are not reliable. You will go months with no video or saved clips.
They work for a bit, but they end up “offline”, and not functional - no video, no clips, nothing. Installed by Geek Squad, I’ve had them out to “fix” the issue several times. After about an hour of trouble shooting, they are always able to get the cameras back. But now the Warrenty is over, and visits will cost $$$; equivalent to a new system.
I took a chance on Best Buy cameras because I had store credit to use. Lesson learned, rewards aren’t always worth it.
The app can’t show me any video, but will certainly mock me with ads for additional care as at a discount…

This camera does a reasonably decent job for the small amount of cost to buy it. It is easy to setup on a network and you really do not need the Amazon cloud storage that incurs extra cost. I installed a USB thumbdrive to store the videos and pictures locally once my trial period ended for the Amazon tie in. Easy to mount also.

Has great day time picture and video quality and I Loved the continuous local recording. However, the poor night vision was a deal breaker.

These cameras work very well. As a dedicated Arlo user, I was hesitant to switch to Blink to not sacrifice features. I was quite impressed with these. Set-up is really simple, and the cost is much less than Arlo. The quality is really good, and the cameras aren't large and bulky. I'm really happy with this purchase and will buy more.
Blink supports up to 10 cameras per sync module which is included. The only tricky part is attaching mount to camera. You snap it in, but you really need to use a firm grip to snap each one, so you want to do that before putting them up. My first one, I attached the mount, then tried snapping the camera in. That wasn't as easy as snapping it to the mount first, then screwing in all in together. Just angle camera to side. Nice and secure!
