Customer Ratings & Reviews

I had the Blink camera system at least 4 years back. It was the best compact system with great battery life and simplest set up. There were a lot of other camera systems that came after that promising great quality and more robust features. Fast-forward to today, Blink came with the outdoor 2K camera which has the same core features that made Blink great, but now with the better quality and features. The design is the same square design—almost the same durable casing quality. It does feel a little hollow but it actually is very sturdy. I feel like I can drop it and not feel bad because the case seems like it can take a beating. Hardware is simple and stealthy. The sealing of the camera seems very tight. I know just by looking at it, setting up the batteries, etc, that this camera is going to outlast crazy outdoor weather. The set up is easy as it connects to a hub. Most hubless standalone camera systems take a lot of tries to set up. Blink still opts for the wireless hub until today which actually helps with the connectivity which I will discuss later. The app is easy to use with a lot of customizations without overwhelming me. The camera quality is good. With light, the video quality is crisp. In the dark, it is not bad at all, especially for a camera that does not use so much power. The best feature for me is still how I can easily fire the feed up from the app without the long wait. It does have motion detection zones, and pretty good sensitivity options and better informed notifications. A lot of other camera systems have that too, however. Sadly, a subscription is needed to record and to have the great notifications. It did not use to have that, but again, a lot of camera systems require that subscription to keep my videos. Of course I wish it has Google Home integration—but this is an Amazon brand. So I understand. Given its limitations, I think Blink still lives up to its no frills personality, and reliable camera system. It is a lot of camera for the money. I would recommend this to anyone who does not have issues with subscriptions and who needs a straight up camera system that you can easily install and use.

Love these cameras, they are super discreet. Employees were very helpful.

the cameras are great! This was one of the best decisions I could have made when purchasing. Not a bad price for what they do!

Haven’t had any issues with blink. Been using them a while now. Only issue is the battery. Doesn't last as long as they say.

This product brings a sense of peace to knowing that I have cameras present.

Works very nice. It features a clear picture with a wide angle for enhanced vision. Would recommend.

Simple hookup easy of usage. If you're on a budget this one here is the way to go.

It does what it needs to do. I have no issues or other comments.

It is not captured anything withing 24/7 does have poor visual. Other than that. It is okay item

As a dad who worries about the safety of my family and home, I needed a security camera that worked without the headache. The Blink Outdoor 2K+ has been that solution. It’s reliable, simple, and gives me real peace of mind. Everything you need comes in the box. I had it up and running in minutes: plug in the little Sync Module, use the app, and mount the camera. The best part is it runs on two AA lithium batteries, so there are no wires to run or outlets to find. I mounted it under the eaves by my front door and forgot about it. The camera is small, tough, and built for the weather. Rain, snow, or summer heat hasn’t been a problem. The video quality is excellent. I can clearly see faces at the door and read license plates in my driveway. The wide view covers my whole porch without looking warped. At night, if there’s a bit of light from a porch or street lamp, I still get color video. When it’s fully dark, it switches to a very clear infrared picture. It’s a huge step up from older cameras. The two-way audio is clear. I’ve used it to talk to delivery drivers without any issue, even with some street noise. The motion alerts are handy, and you can fine-tune them in the app to ignore areas like the sidewalk. If you choose the optional subscription, it can even tell you if the motion is from a person or a vehicle, which cuts down on unnecessary alerts. For a homeowner like me, this camera strikes the perfect balance. It’s completely wireless, delivers a sharp picture day and night, and works seamlessly. I don’t have time for complicated gadgets, and this one just does its job. The little Sync Module by my router lets me add more cameras later if I want to expand. The app is straightforward for checking in live, watching past clips, and managing settings. It’s a solid choice for keeping an eye on what matters most.

This is the second Blink camera I have owned. The one thing I love about Blink camera is their simplicity. The box is small and has everything you need to get started, including the camera, mounting bracket, screws, and blink module. Set up is straight forward and if you already have blink cameras you can just add it to your current system. Quite possibly my favorite thing about Blink cameras is that they use regular AA batteries and last for a long period of time. Other cameras I have used require you to take them down and charge. With Blink, once your batteries are dead you simply replace them and move along. This camera is built solid and meant for the outdoors. Water and dust are no issues for it which is a necessity in the PNW where it is constantly raining. I still prefer to keep my camera under an eave or covered area. I feel like it just prolongs its life. One of the biggest upgrades on this camera is the video quality. The 2K resolution allows you to zoom without losing details. The quality allows you to get highly detailed video and photos of anyone trespassing on your property. Low light video is amazing and allows you to have color video even when it is dark outside. I love the smart detection which can tell the difference between people and vehicles, but this does require a paid subscription. The audio include noise cancelling which makes two-way conversations much more pleasant. If a stranger comes to my door I would much rather talk to them through the camera than open the door. It is also a good option if you are not at home. This Blink camera is great for someone who wants flexibility in their camera system. It can be easily mounted anywhere within minutes and does not require any wires.

Blink Outdoor 2K plus 2K video resolution is a compact security camera with a big upswing. Setup was easy by just scanning the barcode to add the sync module which enables Wi-Fi connection first while waiting for lights to display blue and green and then add your outdoor camera which displays a blinking light when it is armed and detects motion. I like the fact that you can disarm and armed the Blink Security Camera. Once Motion Settings are enabled, the setting allows you to select what type of smart detection you want to record such as person, vehicle, and other motion. Since I live in a Condo the vehicle detection will not be useful since my car is not in view. You can also set motion sensitivity, motion zones to reduce unwanted alerts. The Blink even gives you the option to retrigger time after a motion event when the Blink Camera will not detect motion. Once everything is installed the Blink Outdoor plus 2K video camera chime when you get a notification. The picture quality is amazing with clear defined video resolution. The audio is clear. I setup the Blink camera right outside my Condo door installing with the two screws provided. The Video and Photo Settings feature give you access to motion clip length, video quality and option to end clip early if motion stops. With the Night Vision for the Blink camera it uses infrared LED lights to show images in low or no light situations. Video clips auto delete after 60 days. Disappointed that you have to get a subscription plan for cloud storage to save videos, extended live view and smart detection, but the bundle of smart features and options to make the Blink-Outdoor 2Kplus Security Camera with 2K video fit your needs is well worth the buy.

Having used Blink outdoor cameras for many years, I was glad to get this latest (Gen 4) unit to place outside my home. Being familiar with the setup of other devices in the Blink mobile app, this was a quick and easy install. I chose to buy an outdoor camera mount to go with it to enclose it against the elements. Compared to the prior generation (Gen 3) Blink outdoor camera, this one is much better. The picture is clearer and the annoying echo and hum ALWAYS heard on audio on the Gen 3 is now gone. In particular, the night time images are far better. As with previous gen, the device setup is the same, allowing you to easily set up motion detection zones and motion sensitivity. You can easily control the video details by setting the video quality, the motion clip length, and the infrared LED (IR) intensity. Based on the amount of motion that I have around this unit, the prior Gen 3 batteries would last about 3 to 4 months. I will be watching this Gen 4 unit closely to see if there is any difference in battery life.

I needed a camera at the back of my shop. This blink 2k camera does a great job at notifying me if there's issues in the back gated area. I was pretty surprised to open up and see AA batteries. This is my first blink camera. I guess I didn't pay attention to that prior to receiving it. I would prefer that it give me the battery percentage rather than just status being "ok." When I first opened up, I followed the setup instructions and then mounted it outside. Initially, I was unable to get a live view and there were little to no notifications for the first few days of any motion. I believed this to be an issue. I reached out for support and followed some troubleshooting steps. I moved the sync module to an outlet inside that was closer to where the camera was mounted outside. Slowly it seemed to display more and more clips as well as allow access to live video over a week or so. This was very odd to me but it seems to be working just fine now. The resolution is great. I can easily zoom into the gate to see if anyone is tampering with the locks. I can hear the sound just fine, but I haven't had the opportunity to utilize the two way communication. Depending on the battery life, I may add a battery extender so I won't have to replace the batteries very often. Again, I wish there was a percentage of the battery life so I can better see its efficiency. I wish it had a micro SD so that I didn't need the cloud storage or the subscription. I would absolutely recommend to those who don't care if it requires a subscription.

Blink - Outdoor 2K+ 2K video resolution, Color night vision, Two-way audio with noise cancellation, Smart detection - 1CAM - Black. Quick and easy set up I already have different style Blink cameras so I didn’t have to download the app to get it all set up, all I had to do was sync this new one. With the app you can purchase the backup cloud subscription plan. I can say from my pervious purchased Blink cams this newer style definitely a lot clearer way better resolution & color vision even in low light situations and 4x the zoom could see details pretty good , the two way audio with noise cancellation what an upgrade. Smart detection can tell if it’s a person who or car which can be helpful. It is all weather proof so you can use it outdoors or indoors. I always love the wireless set ups I hate dealing with wires just a faster neater looking set up no cords to try and hide or make sure secured properly etc,etc. it comes with the mounting bracket, power adapter for sync model core and a usb-c cord for the power adapter. The only down part that I am not happy with is the fact that it does not have a rechargeable battery so be prepared to stock up on AA batteries, it does come with 2 in the box, not sure how long the batteries last yet. But I do prefer the just plug in to recharge when needed. Other then that I am satisfied overall.

I’ve used blink in the past and as I said before, you just can’t bet its price and performance of these cameras. I have a few of these indoor cameras monitoring some of my outbuildings now and I’ve never had any issues with them, so I was excited to finally get the outdoor camera to mount outside of my buildings. Setup was a breeze and might be the easiest setup of any camera system I’ve ever used. The app is easily navigable, and I quickly added this camera with 0 issues. I plugged in the module and mounted the camera quickly and easily. The quality of the video was great during the day and at night. I was unsure how the night vision would see but it’s been perfect and has been an upgrade from my older blink indoor cameras for sure. To access video from the past, you will need a subscription to the app, but again it’s absolutely worth it and it’s still cheaper than many other brands and systems. I 100% recommend the subscription, if you don’t have it your curiosity will eventually get the best of you and you’ll regret not having it, and will probably get it eventually anyway!

I am a longtime user of Blink cameras at both my home in the Midwest as well as in the mountains of Colorado (with high elevation and bitter cold winter weather). Both Blink setips are rock solid stable over the last 4 years of using their products – 5 outdoor cameras in Midwest home and 6 outdoor units in the Colorado location. I have never had a problem in either location. I was interested to compare the quality of this new offering from Blink. Unboxing this product is typical of todays conscious effort to minimize waste and use recyclable product – they did well on this front. You get the camera, sycn module, mounting bracket, batteries and USB C cable for the module. Setup was simple as always especially for those familiar with Blink ecosystem, I opted to get rid of my older sync module in the Colorado home and switch all my cameras, including this new camera to this newer sync module. As a result, the setup time was about 20 minutes for all. For one camera I suspect 5 minutes. Comparing this camera to the Outdoor 4 camera showed this new camera smaller in footprint by approximately 25%. The daytime video was sharper on the new camera albeit not by much. The nighttime video, however was much improved. Please understand that in no light/low light areas the night video will be black and white but definitely clearer than the Outdoor 4. In lit situations at night (ie with a porch light), the night video will show in color. Unfortunately, in my Colorado home, we have quite strict rules regarding house light/porch light usage at night (to protect the sky views) so I will not be able to have the benefit of night colors. Not a knock on this product, just a reality in my situation that others may experience as well. The 2 way Audio works well and is clear on both ends. Be aware that to use all the features of the camera one needs a Blink subscription as with most security camera setups these days. The subscription service is competitive with other companies. All in all I am quite happy with his new Blink camera. Will I upgrade all my other cameras to this new version – likely not since I won’t get the benefit of the night color vision as noted above. If I could, I would consider upgrading. Good camera, great price compared to other companies and very stable product line. One other note that I love about the Blink ecosystem – due to lots of construction in my Colorado location, power gets turned off to the area frequently (on purpose for new construction needs) as well as accidental – cut lines by construction crews. This camera system boots back up perfectly every time and I have never needed to manually reset any of the cameras. This was quite a problem with other camera brands (very large companies with much more expensive cameras) as the cameras would need some kind of hands-on reset. Not ideal for one with a 2 home set up like I experience. This Blink system just simply works.
