    The price is good for the product but make sure to get warranty because some of the cameras do stop working like overheating

    Honestly, surprisingly easy to use. If you are going to not use cloud storage then make sure to buy a flash drive but the app works wonders and if you can manage the setting, you can customize a lot.

    I am still checking out the product in terms of night vision capabilities. The quality is completely deplorable. Perhaps, I am experiencing something inconsistent with other users but for sure something is definitely wrong with the picture at night.

    I got these thinking the recording was not going to be little clips here and there. The sensors are delayed when there is movement so sometimes seems as tho nothing set it off. Had to get rechargeable batteries which wasn't a big deal, but where the trees moved a little it would set the camera off, causing recharging to need to happen more often.

    The Blink outdoor cameras get the job done without going over your budget. The picture is clear, the audio is clear, the only thing that I wish is that the night vision would have been better. It's not too bad, but it could use some upgrading! I also love how you can talk to through the speaker on each camera, so if you have a package being delivered, you can speak to the mail-person to let them know where to leave your package. I bought these because I needed something inexpensive to monitor around my home. For me, it gets the job done like I mention in the beginning.

    We own a few different brands of security cameras. The blink system is functional and easy to set up. Minimal hidden gimmicks. Recording quality is sub par. It often fails to record events even they are “crossing across the field the view as opposed to towards the camera” as their instructions ask for. If you have a good budget for your home security avoid blink. If you’re on the fence with your cash then go for these.

    Nice camera system. Batteries have lasted closer to 6 months, but that’s still impressive. Viewing from local storage is slow, but cloud is fast. They now charge monthly to use cloud storage for this model, where previous models like xt2 are free, but I guess someone has to pay the data center. Main reason for the 4 stars is just that they advertise 2 years for the batteries and almost everyone I know that has these changes them every 4 to 8 months depending on traffic. Still very good especially since some of mine are recording 15 plus times a day, but I feel they should set expectations a little better.

    Clear camera compared to other cameras and uses a wide angle lens. It’s sensitive to any kind of movement which is a plus. However, the battery life is my concern. You would have to sacrifice the quality of the video to increase the battery life.

    Pretty decent 3 camera system for the price. Super simple installation and easy to use app. Would get 5 stars but on occasion one of the cameras will just stop functioning properly and needs to be disconnected or rebooted - which isn't difficult or timely but it does bother me that at any point in the day one of the live feeds will just stop working. Not an ongoing issue mind you, as it happens rarely and sporadically but wish a fix was patched in. Solid buy for the price and ease of use, especially given that you don't need a subscription to use.

    Quality of daylight video is excellent. Night vision is limited to a short distance without some alternate light source. Wifi connection is stable. Have had a couple of dropouts even with using a wifi booster. I had the cameras for only a month so I cannot speak of the battery life. The local storage feature is the reason I first purchased the Blink cameras. Using a memory stick (not included) plugged into the sync module (included) works well. A daily backup is copied to the mem stick of new videos that have been created. The night vision is the only issue
