    I placed this camera outside my garage and it is perfect to see all the wide area. It has a very good image. I would definitely recommend it.

    The Blink security system is the best system I have used. Once you have programmed and set up your system you are ready to be armed or disarmed to view any activity on your property. The clarity of the system is amazing. I am not particularly computer savvy, however, I found this to be quite an easy system to download and use. I am enjoying the fact that I have a better security system.

    Bought this during Black Friday sale, otherwise would have passed. I just want something that I can check activity outside without physically going out. This is TOO complicated. Best I can tell, have to be connected to the internet and recording just to see anything. With my connection there is a lag in response, even with a USB drive attached. Will have to do further research to try to make it useful.

    Great cameras. Battery does go quick if placed in front of trees or plants that trigger with wind but they do a great job. Nice night vision and microphone as well.

    The cameras are great! The only issue I have is that you require a subscription to keep video recordings.

    After the trail ends cameras don’t work unless you buy the subscription. I tried the usb card and it still will only give you a live view. Not worth it unless you buy the subscriptions.

    It was my first battery powered camera. I was very disappointed in the night vision. The picture quality is so bad. I can only see objects within 3 feet at night. It's good for daytime use, but not nighttime. Also, from time to time, it will fail to view recored video online - connection timeout.

    It's ok if you only need close range daytime monitoring. The night vision is a bit of a stretch. If you had a well lit area, the night vision would probably be ok, but otherwise, find something else. Also, the motion detection is spotty. Not impressed for an outdoor system. Will likely be returning for something better.

    provides good color display and action of anyone or anything that moves in the direction of the cameras. Night view is too dark to observe a clear picture of those that are in the direction of the cameras. With better lighting assume that picture will be more visible. Plan to get additional lighting to resolve this issue.

    The camera itself is good for The job it is made for, the only problem is that temperature is an issue for the camera. Anything under 40* or above 85* may cause issues.

    Can't go past setting up Sync Module

    I just spent several hours now just trying to set up the Sync Module. I put them in the box and they're going back. I owned several wireless security cameras and several smart plugs (D-Link, Yi Cameras, Wyze, Energizer video doorbell, Wyze smart plugs, TP-Link smart plugs). I never had such issues as the one I had with Blink cameras. I could not even go past setting up the Sync module. At first it failed repeatedly connecting to Blink servers. Then the app can't find the Sync module even though I was able to connect to it. I had to reset it repeatedly just to get the same result. Then the app started crashing repeatedly with a message (something went wrong or to that effect). I also cleared the cache hoping it will fix the issue and still failed. I followed the instructions to the T. I even watched the setup on Youtube before I even picked up the cameras. I tried setting it up on my Android phone (Android ver 10) and Ipad (7th generation). I don't know if this is a bad kit. As I mentioned above. I own several security cameras and smart plugs so I can safely say I have the experience with these devices. Oh by the way, I was setting it up using 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection.

    Love blink and love their products, but didn’t realize (after installation) that I have to buy special mounts - had them installed above house door & garadoor- if want to see directly down when someone is at my door or garage. So, someone was knocking but standing off to the side and I could not see them. I don’t want even more holes put in my siding!!!
