Customers are impressed with the camera quality, ease of use, and affordable price of the Mini - Compact indoor plug-in smart security camera. Many appreciate its small size, motion detection, and night vision capabilities, making it a good security option. However, some users have reported issues with connectivity, battery life, and the live view option. Additionally, the subscription requirement has been a concern for some customers.

    These monitors were okay but worked some days better then others. After your month trail you have to get a plan if not you can only tap in to them and they won’t record. The plans are not bad thow

    I have 10 emails back and forth with Blink. I got Locke out of my original email and had to set the system up on another email. The Blink Mini has a red light on most of the time and does not record. The one thing I do like is that when it does record it will do so through a window.

    Basic rip off, cloud subscription will cost you more, otherwise you have no video or picture after trial. Nobody told me that when I purchased in store. Add another $20 a month and you'll have contract with armed security company. As a said, simple cheat

    What a painful process setting up with Apple iphone13 Pro. Not successful. Had to use Android phone to setup. Then, these were visible on iphone 13 Pro. The viewing angle is too small.

    Several times my camera didn’t pick up on movement. A whole hour can go by and if not pick up my movement. Then if I change the sensitivity level it picks up flying dust. There’s no in between.

    I got this bundled with another product for a steeply discounted price. Where they get you is with subscription fees to store video footage. The costs aren’t hidden per se, but somewhat of a ripoff. Not sure this product was that great of a value after all.

    I installed it, worked great. 2 weeks later I changed my wifi network to a mesh router, so the network changed. It will not recognize the new network. I deleted the old profile from my phone, but it still wont tie to the new network. Total waste of time.

    I was never told about a monthly subscription when I purchased these cameras, NOT by Best Buy, NOT by BLINK! I was told you can view your camera clips with the Blink App, NO SUBSCRIPTION. THEY LIED! BLINK/AMAZON IS UNETHICAL AND DISHONEST.

    Makes an audible click and red light turns on when you go to look at the camera. This makes it creepy, disturbing and useless for watching my kids. No idea why they would ever do that.
