Many also appreciate the system's price point and wireless capabilities. However, some users report challenges with motion detection, night vision, and live view functionality, while others mention needing a subscription for recording capabilities and sensitivity adjustments.

    Put it in a non-high foot traffic area. It goes off with even the slightest tree branch movement. So if you or your loved ones are going to cross the cameras paths, be prepared for a lot of notifications.

    Needed to expand my system. Better than the older XT2 cameras. A plus is this is a kit, not just 2 additional cameras. The news based station works local usb storage.

    Great quality for indoors and out! Have 2 outside and the other inside for the pets! Nice to use a sim card for storage if you don't want to pay for the storage.

    I love it. It does what it says. You can view wirelessly from anywhere on your phone. Setup is a breeze and can be done by yourself! I love that there are no messy plugs and connections to worry about. Just by your double A batteries and the cameras are ready to go. The is an built in intercom feature so you can speak to someone through the camera and they can respond. I love using this feature with my little ones when im at work I can easily sneak a peek at their activity and if it happens to be making a mess I tell them to stop. I love it. Its easy to setup and take down. I would recommend this product. The quality is great both morning and night.

    I like the idea of unlimited cameras, local storage and the activity zone. The mic picks up all the wind noise. Cameras are a little bulky and not easy to snap on the mounts. Will see how long the battery's last and report back. Would like to see the option for one camera to trigger other camera(s). Once you have setup a camera or two it gets easy to do.

    Best cheap, non-subscription, option of outdoor cameras I have tested and used. If you are looking for a full security system with entry sensors, then you will have to look elsewhere, but if you just want outside surveillance on the cheap, I cannot praise this enough. The major difference between local and cloud storage is the ability to save the Live View recordings; local storage does not have this option. That means if you just want to take a look at what is currently going on at your property, you cannot start recording and save to the USB drive. If you have cloud storage you can. The included exterior mounts are junk in my opinion. I got on Amazon and bought some weather-proof ones that are way better and give more range of motion setup. Catch these on sale and the value is really hard to beat. I also got the doorbell and it is really good total setup for my needs.

    The blink cameras are so easy to use and set up. Simply follow the steps after you scan the QR code and that’s it.
