Blink security cameras
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We had them for a couple of weeks and so far we are happy with them. We got outdoor ones to secure the perimeter of the house as well as indoor ones for the inside of the house and garage. The price was very good and the the quality seems to be pretty good too. So far we haven't had functionality issues llike we had with the Ring cameras we tried before these ones. We are happy with the purchase.

Great camera system for the money.

Good buy when on sale.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The cameras work ok. The picture quality is good. Set up was easy but there is a control module that needs to be plugged in and connected to Wi-Fi. This relays the Internet to the cameras, so there is a bit of lag between sending a command (such as Disarm) and having it executed. I got the pair on sale and that is what makes this a good buy.

Blink system is a keeper
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Formerly used canary to monitor my home which worked great for about a year then had all kinds of issues and malfunctions. Been using Blink for about 4 months. Easy to set up and can set or mount them anywhere. Extremely light and unassuming. Registers temp and sound as well as a very clear picture. Also allows two way communication. Can arm and disarm based on your schedule. Battery operated so need to plug in. Supposedly the batteries last for approximately 2 years which is pretty good but likely depends on how many pictures they take. Only small complaint is I get sound feedback when I do listen in on a unit which is not that bad since rarely have need for that. A little expensive for what it is but the system works.

Finicky to set up and squeaky to watch
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was a complete headache to setup. Getting the cameras to sync up was ridiculous. I had to remove batteries and replace them to get it to show anything on the app. And live view maybe lasted 10-15 seconds before shutting off. So by the time I wanted to check placement it had already cut off. The install outdoors was fine, but they just snap in place so there is nothing at all to keep them from being stolen very easily. The sync module seems to go out every few days and takes forever to come back up. The squeaking noise that comes from the camera when viewing is very annoying. I don't understand why it squeaks. I do have a decent view of the camera when live or viewing on the cloud. The motion detector is 10-20 min behind the motion notification on the app as well. I expected better from blink!

Good wireless outdoor camera.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good wireless outdoor camera that was easy to install. Though, at an even lower price range, the Wyze Cam v3 has better video quality, particularly at night. But the Wyze Cam v3 is “wired” and so requires a nearby power connection. And the Blink is more discrete. So if you are looking for an easy to install portable outdoor camera where night video is not important, I think the Blink is a good affordable choice that provides more flexibility on where you can install the camera.

Just okay
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is not a five start camera system and here is why. I'll start with the good. And that is the price. Five cameras for under $400 is very affordable. I like that I don't need to subscribe to any of Blink plans to review or record videos. I have the totaltech plan, so the installation was included at no additional cost. And watching how the technician installed the cameras seemed to be simple and straight forward. Now the negative. The cameras do not have enough mobility for positioning the cameras in the angle that is needed for good viewing. If the camera is placed directly on the wall surface up high, than you may encounter it's not enough viewing angle. I had to either lower the camera or add a an extesion to get the right angle, and I have a single story. The second disadvantage is the cameras don't have automatic live view updates when you open the app. I have a Kasa indoor camera and it automatically goes on live view when I open the app. That doesn't work with these cameras. You will need to click the video button to see live. These cameras are okay and they do their job for the price.

Blink (5 pack)
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very happy that I purchased this set of security cameras for around my home. They have been up since the latter part of May, so that's been plenty enough time to give a fair and accurate review. I am impressed to say the least. The cameras were easy to install (the only things not provided for the installation were the only 2 items that couldn't be included, the drill and ladder - everything else was in the box neatly arranged and packed very well) from start to finish, including downloading the app to monitor them from your smart phone. The quality of the videos (live mode, recordings, & still pictures) are very clear & the range of view (side to side, I can't think of the correct term for what I'm trying to say) each camera captures is very wide, in my opinion, giving me the coverage that I needed & wanted. Also, all of the settings are set to the recommended options, except 2; I did have to lower the sensitivity of motion on 2 of them bc a bee flying & wind blowing a tree kept setting them off back to back and to start recording sooner than motion at 5 seconds in due to a slight delay in real time vs recording time. The sound is clear as well. I got the 5 pack bc 3 wasn't enough & there isn't or wasn't a 4 pack option at the time of my purchase. They look just as good, if not better, as the more expensive named brands on the market. I did alot of research on a few different brands to ensure I made the best decision when it came time to actually purchase them. They offer every option available in 1 package deal (weather resistant, motion, red light when recording (your choice on when to record and when not to; record only when motion is detected or continously records), the ability to speak through them, good quality product, I think the only brand that gives you free subscription to try out for 30 days before signing up & not a requirement to purchase either (you can plug a flash drive right into the sync box if you prefer). The subscription is very affordable if you chose that option. I could go on and on raving about these cameras. Again, I am impressed and if I decide down the line that I wanted to add additional cameras, these will be what I will purchase again. If you are shopping around for your new or next set of security cameras, make sure to look into this brand, Blink.

Great value, especially on sale!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.System is efficient and easy to use. With the Totaltech membership, there was nothing for me to worry about. This was a return & repurchase due to one camera that needed to be replaced; that process was challenging because all 5 cameras had to be returned (which was not what I was originally told). So far there have been no issues, and we are happy with the how well everything works.

Excellent camera video quality.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Generally the Blink app is easy to configure and the cameras work as advertised. Good quality video, adequate microphone and good speaker. Arranging these to work with Alexa can be a little tricky unless you already know how to program Alexa. Once you have your cameras up in the doorbells up and get it hooked up with Alexa you can watch real time at any camera on your Alexa echo show. Would recommend these cameras. I have had Arlo cameras in the past and definitely like the blink cameras better. The main reason I switched to Blink was to get the long life batteries. I haven’t had the system long enough to know how they will fare in the long run but so far I’m pleased with the battery drain.

Good camera for beginners
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty decent camera. Works better with the subscription. I don't like that you can't continously stream the live view, but being battery operated i get it. I do however, like that you can plug it in to an ac adapter and not have to worry about the batteries(still no continuous stream) because if you have the motion set to very sensitive it'll drain faster. That and if you record high quality. Images are great, you can download clips and transfer to a computer. Great camera for the price

over all good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is good for the price , works well and very easy to set up. You do not have to buy the plan to use so this is really good. You do loose some things when you don't get the plan. This is the only reason I did not give it 5 stars. I say if you buy the package of 3 or 5 leave one off for the first 30 days use after your 30 days are up. When you activate it you get another free 30 days.

Blink gen 3 battery camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Could be 5 stars if the camera would wake up quick enough to capture what triggered the alert. The capability of being able to use it almost anywhere is a good thing. The battery life seems very good. I've had one on my front porch for almost 2 years with it being triggered 5 to 6 times or more a day. 4 stars for slowness of waking up to capture event. 5 stars for ease of placement and use.

Overall happy, but one flaw.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent price. Easy to install and setup. I even have them integrated with my Alexa so they start receding when I leave home. However, they’re not great at capturing actions in time. What I mean is, they seem to react too slowly. For example, is someone is walking by and that triggers the camera, I only get them waking out of frame. For a point of comparison, my ATT Digital Life camera records constantly but only saves when it detects something. And when it saves, it includes a few seconds before as well so that it captures a better representation of what happened.

Great cameras for the price
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Cameras are great. Setup is simple and easy. Video quality is quite good for the price. Only reason i wouldnt give this 5 stars is due to the distance these cameras will operate from the base.
