I love these Blink cameras! They use AA Batteries that last up to 2 years, night vison, and two way audio. They are wireless, so you can place them anywhere on your property. No wiring needed... The wall mounts make them easy to snap in to place.
I would definitely recommend!

You have to pay for a cloud service in order for these cameras to work but they give you a 30 day trial before they basically become an ugly, pointless fixture so it’s too late to return them. The quality of video isn’t that bad, however the cameras are slow and it’s nearly impossible to view anything in live mode because it takes so long to pull up. After about a week, I couldn’t even view live video from my back yard camera at all. The clips that do record are spotty and don’t capture anything until the motion is right up in the cameras regardless of your settings. Waste of money.

This is awesome i can talk to my 11 year old aon who has autism when im not at home and he is there with the sitter. This reaasures him and provides comfort. The price and installing was affordable. I got two quotes of installers who provide securtiy camera equipment and the price was double foe what i paid and purchased at best buy.

Great for some light video security. I love having the blink module so we don’t have to pay for the subscription. Just plug in a flash drive and it’s all good. Setup was easy and so far we’ve had no issues. A little pricey, but we got them on sale and look forward to using these for the foreseeable future. Great!

My Blink cameras have literally put my mind at ease. Setup was a breeze. I have five of the outside Blink modules and they pick up any movement. You can adapt each camera to different settings: timers, space movement, sensitivity levels, sound levels. Easy to install. 10/10 recommend!

We purchased 3 Blink cameras and mounted them on posts with a small 'umbrella' above to protect the lens from precipitation. The camera sends us alert right to our phones. We were amazed at all the wild animals we have roaming our property

Great product!
I have used them for the front yard and inside the gate, and they have worked exceptionally well. I particularly enjoy them being battery powered so I don't have to do any wiring.

We are actually using these indoor with plans to move them outside - maybe. They are small produce a good quality picture with a fairly wide coverage area for a fixed flat camera. It did require some tech support to sync with the app but they answered quickly and were very helpful.

Was suggested to me to get a blink system for the price range i was looking for. Amazing product, easy-to-use, and the price was perfect. I'm on my 6th camera and it covers everything I need it to. Thank you all so very much!

Very simple and easy to install, great for casually checking up on your home. Great giving alerts when there's commotion. The night vision is actually pretty nice and comes with built in speakers to hear everything going on.

Great pic. I’m still learning about the camera’s but so far so good. I have 2 outdoor cameras and 2 indoor cameras and a doorbell camera. I wanted to put one at my shop but it wouldn’t work, I guess it’s too far away.

These have to be the best security cameras out there. No monthly fees, super easy to setup and also connect to my Alexa Hub with ease.
Actually going to buy another one!

I bought these to replace my "Amazon Cloud Cam Security Camera" that went end-of-support. I had them for many years and they were superior to this. You can't set different triggers for each camera - its all or nothing. and the sensitivity is unworkable in some places. check the sequence of photos i took from the same 30 second video clip. (no one turned the lights on or off during the clip). i can't set the sensitivity above 3 without this happening all the time.

I loved the excellent quality and high resolution that these cameras provide me. There's such clarity pictures even in snow, rain, colors in the skies. Simply gorgeous clarity in the videos they make.
I like the way the clips of videos can be arranged by the owner. These are truly fantastic photos of nature or even people knocking on your door.

The Blink Outdoor cameras are totally wire free. This is why I like them. I retired some other cameras cause the guy at Best Buy said they were wire free. When I got them home u still had to have power to each camera. Now the Blink outdoor cameras are only for motion. They reach about 30 feet. U can view through an app at anytime from anywhere with a smartphone. When you view it does use up the battery more so the life won’t last as long as it says for two years. The camera uses two AA lithium batteries . They have a microphone also to have two way talk. It’s nice when u get motion and u have put one camera by the front door. Then u can use your app to speak to who’s at your door. Just remember when cameras activated the microphone is also on recording . You have the ability to turn off the sensitivity and microphone plus many more options. This setup doesn’t cost for a subscription to use. Which is also nice. I bought a 2000 watt flood light to go with a camera. Then u will get picture in color at night for the driveway.
