    Video quality is decent at best. Worst thing about it and the reason I returned this camera is simply due to the live feed or lack there of. Will last longer if you have an echo show, but still only lasts 2 minutes at best.

    I purchased 2 blink cameras to put at my windows to catch whoever was placing their garbage in front of my property. It happened a few times and neither camera ever caught the culprit. It would only show the garbage a min or two after it was placed there and right before. However, it seemed to catch every car that would pass by on the street instead.

    Price is fine, but I wouldn't recommend it. Without subscription it's quite worthless, and you have to pay for every extra device that you use it. Also it doesn't always work. It skipped more than once movements.

    I bought this camera because it had a small amount of free storage...no, not a trial but advertised free storage. I bought a few of these cameras over others because of that feature. over a year later, amazon forced everyone into a storage plan. based on my purchase date, I did not buy a storage plan...Amazon deleted the last 15 second clip of my now deceased cat. I am concerned about buying the Sync Module for local storage believing the same thing will happen again in a year...

    It works OK, Got it for $5.00 with another purchase. Works OK with the app. But it would be another app to pay for for storage to the cloud. Already have 2 other apps and alarm.Would be good for a different system.

    I purchased this one and the TP-LINK. The TP-link is better. I actually submitted a mediocre review for the t-link on accident thinking it was the blink. They are very similar as far as size and video quality. The app for the blink is worse than the tp-link. The problem with blink I’d have to say is mostly the app and the problem with adding different cameras. Like adding the wired after you add wireless cameras there is come kind of connection issues with the wired one, but not the wireless. They all work, I have arlo, canary, blink, d-link and tp-link. They all have goods and bads.

    Difficulte setup

    I called and got very poor responses - unplug this move that and I did my speed test ping 10 upload 12 download 112 - the camera would time out and turn off every 15 sec and never connect to anything - said he would call back and kept hanging up on me. I gave up and I am returning them. I have a degree in computer software and my tech friend could not get it to run on his Iphone so they are going back. I was disappointed as I specifically asked if I could link to laptop and was told yes - that cannot be done. The support guy suggested I go buy a rablet. There is an issue with the camera syncing program -when we tried 3 phones on wifi!

    Meh. That sums up these cameras. If you’ve used nest, or any other modern cameras, you’ll be disappointed by the low quality of the video, app, notifications, etc.

    Worst Cameras out there! Do not purchase, spend a little more and get decent ones. When using the button to talk thru the app is horrible and you can't even understand what is trying to be said. The app constantly crashes and audio goes in and out, if you zoom in then it crashes. I've tried uninstalling the app then reinstalling it, unplugging them, re doing the wifi connections and nothing helps so I've thrown them away now. Also I have a Galaxy S21+ phone so its not like my phone can't handle it, same for my wife on her Iphone

    My first Blink cameras I have 5 are awesome. They record to my phone and as i review i can delete them. I added these 2 and Blink will not allow these 2 mini indoor wired to record to my phone. Yet the other 5 will. Blink wants to charge me a subscription. So No I don't recomend I am going to check on bringing these back.

    Makes a loud shutter sound when switches to low light mode. Not great when trying to use as a secret camera. Does not have great video quality in low light. But for the price point you get what you pay for.
