Doesn't always pick up motion even when the motion is close up. Was supposed to be second best to the Ring doorbell and security camera system. I would say not

Posted .Hello CharlesH,
I am sorry to hear your Blink outdoor camera is not working smoothly. If your Blink camera isn't detecting motion, ensure your system is armed, motion detection is enabled in the app, and that you have sufficient storage available on the USB drive. Troubleshooting steps include checking the Wi-Fi signal, adjusting sensitivity settings, and even resetting the Sync Module if necessary. Hope this helps, If these steps do not help and you are still experiencing issues, you can reach out to Amazon Customer Support 24/7 at 1-888-280-4331. Have a nice day!

||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased the package of 5 Blink outdoor 4 cameras with its module. 4 of the cameras are working without problem. The fifth camera every time it is tried to be linked to the module says "device not supported". We called customer service and they sent us another camera. However, the new camera cannot be linked either. The same message "device not supported" appears.

Posted .Hi ArtashesM,
Thank you for sharing your feedback about the Blink Outdoor 4 camera system. I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing rapid battery drain and delays with live viewing—that's definitely not the experience we want you to have.
Regarding the battery life: The Blink Outdoor 4 is designed to last up to two years on batteries under typical usage, so quick battery drain suggests something may need adjustment. A few things that can help:
Reduce motion sensitivity in your camera settings to prevent excessive triggering
Shorten clip length to conserve battery power
Check your Wi-Fi signal strength—weak connectivity can drain batteries faster
Review activity zones to focus only on areas that matter
For the live view delay: Streaming delays can often be improved by:
Ensuring your camera has a strong Wi-Fi connection
Checking your internet upload speed (Blink recommends at least 2 Mbps per camera)
Moving your Sync Module closer to your router or cameras if possible
We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and want to make sure your system works as expected!
Not as advertised
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchase 2 sets of cameras For 2 houses All installed inside the House or at the exterior under the roof ( no sun no rain ) Use the recommended settings Very easy to install and set up Software is wonderfull BUT THE BATTERIES !!!!! don't last for 3 weeks at the most Blink said 2 years. I had contact them an replaced 2 cameras I need to purchase many many lithium batteries thinking the originals were old. No way same problem has expense more than $70.00 in batteries !!! Support is very good but at the end Will tell you to replace the batteries nothing else I need to order cables to remove the batteries and connect to AC The main reason ti purchase Blink was to boy use ac and not need to run wires !!! No you know the true if you purchase Blink purchase cables to power them by AC power !!! Do not recommend to buy

||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wouldn’t recommend this camera. I purchased it on Nov 11, 2024 and have had to replace lithium batteries every two weeks. Blink customer service wasn’t much help and only sent replacement batteries which were the same brand that I was using. The battery life is supposed to be 2 years. I tried their other suggestions as far as moving the sync module closer and even relocated the camera thinking it may not be getting a good signal but batteries still drained within two weeks. I will be purchasing a different brand.

I would recommend this to a friendMake sure they have the updated firmware before yo
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchase this camera 6 months ago it doesn't work you have to go through all this rigmarole and jump through plenty of Hoops to download a new app because the firmware is not updated. Bought a package of four from another store online they work great right out of the box. Best Buy wanted to charge to load the firmware forget it it's sitting in the closet in a box too late to return it not a good idea the salesperson knew nothing about it I feel like I got stuck with it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBatteries lasted three weeks
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These cameras are sub par. The quality is just decent. They only record motion clips. I bought $400 worth of cameras including the floodlight and doorbell camera and installed them less than three weeks ago and now I have to get new batteries. I have the settings at minimums.

Poor Camera quality
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Two of the blink cameras keep falling offline. Each time I replace batteries and couple of days later they are back offline. ….Frustrating

Posted .Hello MonicaR! I am so sorry to hear that you are experiencing these connection issues with 2 of your Blink Outdoor 4s. If the other cameras are not having these same issues, these 2 cameras may be too far from the Sync Module possibly causing the batteries to die too soon and dropping connection intermittently. You can check this by opening the Blink smartphone app and selecting the 3 dots icon in the image of the camera feed you would like to check. From there, go to Device Settings and then to General Settings. Here you can see your network connection as well as your connection to Sync Module. If either of these is not full and green, then you can try to move the Sync Module closer to the outlying cameras to improve connection. If this doesn't work or if you need them to be further away, there is a Sync Module XR that is sold separately that will allow for an extended range for 2 of your outdoor cameras. You can also troubleshoot further by contacting Blink Customer Support via the smartphone app through Chat or Phone. I do hope this resolves your connectivity issues and that you have an amazing day!

No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot worth the money.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had trouble with these loading so got Ring to replace them. Camera quality was so much better with Ring.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBetter product’s are available
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The cameras have good resolution. They are slow to connect, long time to display playback, and the local storage solutions do not work after multiple attempts and follow the troubleshooting guide. Since the “free” cloud trial took me past the return date, I am unable to return them for not working as expected. Currently on my third call to technical support, don’t worry, it’s only a 30 plus minute wait for that. All in all, my 6 year old Arlo cams are back up because at least they work. Not recommended for purchase.
