    Terrible System

    Would not recommend. After trying to adjust physical camera placenent, motion sensitivity, privacy zones, retrigger time, etc, the Blink system only recorded and gave false alerts/notifications while not recording people at our front door, which was the intended purpose.

    I received the wrong module in the box. I just paid extra to get this devices in the same day when they arrived I spend hours trying to connect it to the wifi just to realize they labeled and sent the incorrect module that connects to the wifi. That’s why my phone couldn’t connect to it based on the serial number and not been the correct one. Had to go out of my way to get in touch with costumer service is been a week and I still don’t have the right part I should of return it instead of waiting for them to fix this mess up.

    This system works extremely well. It holds up in the weather and we have not had a issue. Gave us the sense of security while we were at work or at night.

    Use this for my property and couldn't be anymore happy. Had a plan for a little while but added a USB drive for storage. You lose some functions with out the plan but it does what we need it. Can add more if needed.

    Night vision is still dark. It only will work when the sun is coming up and doesn’t show anything turning it on. Very cheap device.

    At first they were amazing. 5 months in and they will not connect to our network. We have tirelessly tried everything and cannot get them to work. I’m highly disappointed.

    Great purchase. If you don’t have a home system this is the one to get. If you have animals you can always have an eye on them. Get packages delivered you get notifications of arrival and motion helps protect your investment great image and WiFi range.

    This was a great starter-set. Have since added two Blink doorbells, and they all use the same sync module and app. Very convenient.

    So apparently you have to pay for a subscription after 30 days . Thought you could talk through them no clear path on how that works ,and it’s not like you can check your cameras anytime of the day it’s Jsut motion activated and there’s been times packages are delivered doesn’t even work . Jsut records small 30 seconds clips . Not what thought it was and if I understood it was Amazon product wouldn’t of bought it from Begin with .

    This thing sucks! Hard to set up and get connected. It worked for about 2 weeks and now won’t connect or even turn on. The motion sensor worked half the time. I went and bought the outdoor google nest and it’s a massive difference. Anyone want this one for free you can have it

    These cameras are the WORSTT! I bought one time and the box wasn’t completely sealed and it wouldn’t connect AT ALL. I took them back and ended up buying them again thinking it was a dud because the second package was completely sealed, It connected for the first time the second time I bought I I thought yay! Absolutely not, The sync module wouldn’t stay connected, I did everything it suggested and moved it closer to the router. Didn’t work, FINALLY after an hour of messing with them I got the sync module to stay connected. Only to get on the app and it wouldn’t let me live view my cameras. I got notifications about motion detection but couldn't live view my cameras? I’m done with blink!

    These are a good choice if you are looking for cameras that are affordable and have minimal security camera needs. I do not regret purchasing this product.

    Don’t waste your money on these blink cameras. Horrible quality, consistent lagging. if you wanted to see your camera for more than five seconds. Don’t bother. There is no option to view multiple cameras at the same time. Motion sensor goes off for bugs but not for when a physical car drives up your driveway. it’s terrible.

    Easy to install and good value for the price but there's a monthly subscription to have a backup with notifications.

    So far this item works great. Part of the information is you need to subscribe to a plan so you can get notifications. The price to subscribe is inexpensive.

    Needed some extra security due to increasing foot traffic in our neighborhood and this provides great coverage. Still learning the system but seems to be providing the necessary security.

    Good but need subscription to review recordings. If you have an account already it’s a good way to add on cams.
