    Likely bring these back, they are ok for short distance but their inability to send a picture 50 feet is terrible. If you get out of line of sight even with Xfinity 5G the best in the local area nothing but buffering notifications that cannot be seen.

    They work as cameras for a maximum of like one minute. Then they don't work for at least 30 seconds. They simply don't record long enough to be a valuable security device.

    Underhanded

    The cameras aren’t bad but there is a delay with notifications. I found that it’s missed a few motions and isn’t completely accurate. If you don’t have Amazon Prime look for another camera. I didn’t see anywhere that you need an Amazon membership after the free trial. The system doesn’t record (live view only) after the free trial. Pretty underhanded, kind of like the NFL selling a game to Peacock and the only way to watch is to sign up. System ok but Blink/Amazon not honest with this one.

      Hi Geee,

      Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the Blink Outdoor 4 camera system! We're glad to hear the cameras are still working well for you overall.

      I do want to address your note about the battery life. The Blink Outdoor 4 is designed to provide up to two years of battery life under normal usage conditions, so needing to change batteries every 2-3 months is significantly shorter than expected. This could be due to several factors, such as:

      High activity zones triggering frequent recordings
      Extended video clip lengths in your settings
      Strong Wi-Fi signal issues causing the camera to work harder
      Cold weather conditions (which can impact battery performance)

      I'd encourage you to check your camera settings in the Blink app to optimize battery life—adjusting motion sensitivity, clip length, and retrigger time can make a significant difference. If you continue experiencing rapid battery drain, our support team would be happy to help troubleshoot further.

      We appreciate your feedback and want to ensure you get the best performance from your system! AmazonDevices

    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 purchased this camera on sale at a good price, and I was disappointed it had a good Daytime view,Night time view was unreliable. I installed it outside for surveillance and at night the lens would fog up and I couldn’t see anything in the recordings. I had to return them..

    I guess I am comparing them to our ring system we had at our resort. Not pleased but they work-just sometimes you have to request them or keep armed

      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!

    I bought the 2-pack outdoor 4 camera and was considering buying more to put around my house. Twenty days into owning and testing with the 30-day free trial of Blink’s cloud access one of the cameras stopped recording to the cloud. It would notify me of motion detection but the clip is not there to watch. I’m 5 days past my return window so I’m stuck with an intermittent recording of one camera.
