    Not Great

    Blink Cam Outdoor, despite its depiction on the box of working in the rain, is only water-resistant - so not something you actually want to leave uncovered under the rain. The other issue is the batteries do tend to run out and aren't cheap. If you have these set up where they will get 10-15 seconds of action a day, then you will probably get a year or so of use from each camera. Also, you can only record a maximum of a 60 second clip. That's it. Quality isn't as good as say the Google Nest Cams (battery) and the biggest issue is having to sign up for a Blink subscription. It is overpriced for what it is (compared to Google Nest's basic subscription). Even though the sync module in the box will allow you to use a USB stick to save clips without a subscription - there will often be an issue. The tab for saved clips on the app will disappear, formatting the USB drive will be required from time to time, and IFTT will no longer be functional without a Blink subscription. The biggest issue was an outage at the end of 2021 which rendered these cameras completely useless. Always have backup cameras from a different company, you cannot rely on one company in case there are widespread outages like the one Blink experienced at the end of 2021.

    We love our blink cameras. We like that we can go back and see what triggered them, who and what kind of animals are hanging around our house in the night. We love that we're able to set the sensitivity higher or lower and to easily turn the motion detection off with one tap if it's super windy. The batteries have lasted 5 months with out any issues. Other than the ring doorbell, we have had to switch those batteries out. All in all, they work as we need them to.

    Love this system so much, I bought a second set to give as a gift. Super easy to use, no monthly fees unlike competitors. Wish it had come with a memory stick but aside from that, it’s an all in one package

    Cameras are easy to install, clear, have sound! They are great! You can install these cameras permanently or move them around where you need them, no wires. I live on a golf course and these are just what I needed. I am not tech savvy but the install to my iphone was really easy! 5 stars

    This camera has a really good quality picture. App is easy to use. However can't quite get the setting right for surveillance, it either alerts me too much or not enough. I'm sure its user error.

    I didn't know how this would work for keeping a puppy in a bedroom when we are gone during the day. It certainly works and I'm impressed by when you speak the puppy responds and also looks up at the camera. I should and probably will buy at least one more when we let her roam the living room soon.

    Overall a solid camera system. I gave it three stars because nighttime recordings are not very clear unless the area is well lit up and it records in black and white at night. Blink claims that the batteries can last up to 2 years however if you have a high traffic area the batteries will run out quickly. The lithium batteries these camera use are very expensive. I got them at half price but I wouldn't pay full price for them.

    I have more than 10 Blink cameras installed at various outdoor locations on my property. They provide outdoor visibility on my smartphone even if I am travelling. My only complaint is that the system is a bit slow initializing. But this is tolerable. Cameras work even at night.

    I received the two outdoor Blink camera set as a holiday gift from my workplace and they were easy to set up. Having the sync module as the hub to connect the two cameras to the phone app went smoothly from discovery to connecting to my home wi-fi network. Adding cameras is as simple as scanning its QR code inside the unit. Only drawback is that you have to subscribe to the Blink service to record clips when the motion sensor trips the camera. Otherwise you just use them as real-time viewers without the service.
