The camera has worked well since my purchase in May. Wish the camera viewing did not time out. You need to press continue if you want to stay in viewing mode. However, it does work for my intended use.

Great quality, slight wireless delay. SO much easier to set up the cameras I had at my old house. I installed 8 in about 2 hours, and that included deciding where to put them!

We are very happy with this system purchased at Best Buy. It's easy to use and easy to understand. The installers did a great job installing and instructing. I would recommend this system to anyone who is considering installing cameras around your home.

It’s a decent system but batteries do not last 2 years - even if you use lithium.

had problems with the unit. it either did not properly detect motion, or it recorded when motion wasn't present. tech support could not help, so I returned the units.

I bought 2 new cameras to compliment my old 3 camera system. The "updated" model of these cameras require an online paid subscription which is over $120/yr or a usb synced to the module 24/7 and then taking the usb in syncing it to your computer in order to view clips. The cameras themselves are fine, it's just amazon's total downgrade in software.
Before this purchase, I owned an older model of these cameras and sync module with built in cloud storage that didn't require a subscription or USB technique. Unfortunately these models are discontinued by amazon in favor of their current corporate money maker. I have never seen such a downgrade in software, but i'm not surprised. At this price point (~$100 a camera) accessibility should be mandated especially by a company like amazon.
If i knew the old models would have been discontinued i would have stocked up. Will be returning these this week and just using my old 3 camera set up. Very disappointed with Amazon. Not sure why these are getting 4 and 5 star reviews unless they combined the two models into one product.
If you can somehow find the old models I HIGHLY recommend them (5 stars easily), but due to the discontinuation this may be nearly impossible. Hopefully the next version of blink cameras will have build in cloud storage again, but i am extremely doubtful due to amazon's subscription plans.

I love that it gave you the option to use usb and store it in there or to have buy plan. Either way I like both options. Great camera overall

Great for a small apartment. Not for a house...

Not the greatest clarity. At $70 a piece, if you buy four of these you end up spending nearly as much as a DVR system. I'd say they're a good option if you're only buying one for a small apartment. That's about it.

Originally had Eufy. Nothing but problems; especially with their Portal Access. So far I love "Blink". No problems; does everything I wanted. I should have listened to my Cousin in the first place.

Does not work with Alexa.

The big problem with this camera is that it has never (despite herculean efforts) worked with Alexa Echo as advertised. Echo support has tried to help, so perhaps the problem is with Alexa - mind you, Amazon owns both Blink and Alexa. However, can't find an Amazon human to discuss the issue with (after unsuccessfully trying online means). So frustrating.
